T.30-E Fax Protocol Software
T.30-E Color Fax software is used to send and receive color facsimiles

T.30-E Color Fax software allows users to send and receive color facsimiles per the ITU T.30-E Color Fax standard. The T.30 protocol itself provides software developers complete Group 3 facsimile control. The T.30E color fax libraries are modular and can be configured to support multichannel applications. The software can be executed as a single task under a variety of operating systems or standalone with its own microkernel. Contact us to discuss your fax software application requirements.

VOCAL’s T.30-E color fax software  is optimized for DSPs and RISC/CISC processors from ADI, ARM, TI, Intel and other vendors. It is available standalone, as an embedded library, or with a VoIP stack. Custom designs are available to meet specific developer requirements.

T.30-E Color Fax Protocol

T.30-E color fax protocol uses an encoding methodology for continuous-tone (multilevel) color images based on the lossy mode of encoding based on the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) of JPEG (T.81) image encoding standard. T.30-E uses Forward Error Correction defined in T.42 and adopts a device-independent color space representation, the CIELAB space, which allows unambiguous exchange of color information.

Recommendation T.30-E also indicates the procedure for negotiation of the capabilities for transmission of continuous-tone color and gray-scale images. T.30-E fax protocol specifies the definitions and the specifications of new entries to the Facsimile Information Field of the DIS/DTC and DCS frames of Recommendation T.30. The information includes image digitization resolution (in bits/pel), spatial resolution, sampling ratio of color components, JPEG capability, color capability, and image data scaling that is subject to negotiation in the pre-message phase of the T.30 protocol.

The technical features of T.30-E color fax encoding and decoding the continuous-tone color and gray-scale image data are described in Annex E/T.4. It describes two modes of image encoding (lossy gray-scale and lossy color) which are defined using Recommendation T.81.
