This document presents information about the implementation of turbo codes. Turbo coding represents a new and very powerful error control technique, which has started to have a significant impact in the late 90s, allowing communication very close to the channel capacity. The powerful error correction capability of turbo codes was recognized and accepted for almost all types of channels leading to increased data rates and improved Quality of Service. Turbo codes can operate at 0.1 dB from the Shannon capacity limit outperforming any other coding technique known today. - Performance Results of the method provided in T1E1.4/2000-183

Previous presentations (NF-084 and BM-087), provide theoretical and simulated results comparing the uncoded ADSL data stream with Reed-Solomon FEC, with Reed-Solomon plus Trellis and Reed-Solomon and multiple concatenated Convolutional Codes (MCCC).In these presentations, the power penalty when using Reed-Solomon was not taking into account, because it did not affect the presentations’ conclusions, namely, that the use of inner coding, whether Trellis or MCCC, with Reed-Solomon provides better performance than the use of only Reed-Solomon.
In this paper we present the mathematics for calculating the power penalty of error correction codes and apply this mathematics to Reed-Solomon FEC codes. - G.gen: Comparison of simulation results for different Coding Techniques (Uncoded, Reed-Solomon, Reed-Solomon plus Trellis and Reed-Solomon plus Parallel Concatenated Convolutional Codes) for G.992.1.bis and G.992.2.bis

From VOCAL Technologies, Ltd. point of view, frequency and time domain probing are very important functions that should be provided within T1.413. The lack of these features could impact the deployment of the xDSL modems especially for developing countries. xDSL modems will be sensitive to line impairments and cross-talk with other lines carrying ISDN, T1/E1 or even other xDSL modems. The reason to ask for including this facility in the T1.413 Issue 2 standard is to assure interoperability between the different companies’ designs. - G.gen: Use of Parallel Concatenated Convolutional Codes PCCC (Turbo-Codes) for G.dmt and G.lite

xDSL modems are designed to operate between a Central Office and a customer premises. As such they use existing telephone network wiring between the Central Office and the subscriber. There are several modems in this class which function in generally similar manner. All of these modems transmit their signals usually above the voice band. As such, they are dependent on adequate frequency response above voice band. The telephone lines which are already in place generally have not been tested for adequate response in the intended frequencies of operation. In particular, prior to ISDN deployment, use of loading coils on long telephone lines has been common. Their intended purpose was to equalize the voice band frequency dependent signal propagation. Their effect on xDSL modems however is drastic. Because xDSL modems can not be expected to operate on loaded lines, here we propose a technique to identify their presence. - G.hs: Loading Coil Location
xDSL modems are designed to operate between a Central Office and a customer premises. As such they use existing telephone network wiring between the Central Office and the subscriber. There are several modems in this class which function in generally similar manner. All of these modems transmit their signals usually above the voice band.

The telephone lines which are already in place generally have not been tested for adequate response in the intended frequencies of operation. In particular, prior to ISDN deployment, use of loading coils on long telephone lines has been common. Their intended purpose was to equalize the voice band frequency dependent signal propagation. Their effect on xDSL modems however is drastic, because xDSL modems can not be expected to operate on loaded lines. We propose a technique to identify their location, to help the telephone company to locate and solve this problem. - G.hs: Cross-talk Impairment Identification
xDSL modems will be sensitive to impairments created from excessive cross-talk with other lines carrying ISDN, T1/E1 or even other xDSL modems. Some studies have indicated that xDSL operation may not be possible if another pair of wires in the same cable bundle is carrying ISDN or T1/E1. Since the wiring plant for a telephone operating company evolved over many years, it is unrealistic that the routing of these digital signals can be determined in advance when a customer orders xDSL service. We propose the addition of some relatively simple functions in a xDSL modem in order to aid with the determination of these potential problems. - G.hs: Bridge taps detection and location
As cable bundles are wired together at various distribution points, not all lead to a telephone line termination. Some wires simply “T- off” at points and can continue in multiple cables. For voice-band signals, such connection do not present any significant effect. However for high frequency signals such as for xDSL, the wires act as transmission lines and signals will propagate down both directions from a “T”. The line which is not terminated will create a reflection of the signal as the energy can not be absorbed which will in turn disrupt the signal quality. We propose an addition of an optional probing technique for the detection and location of these impairments. - G.hs: Diagnosis of failed xDSL Modem Connections
The deployment of xDSL modems requires telephone company plants and facilities coordination with the customer’s modem. As human resources can be very consumed at a high rate over large number of installations, it is a very critical goal to minimize truck roll and require as little installation support as possible, to let the customer initiate the entire procedure once the line has been provisioned at the Central Office. We believe that the primary reason for additional installation support is when the modems fail to connect. Secondary would be inadequate performance when the modems do connect. - G.hs: Refined channel probing for G.hs
V.8bis-style coding and transactions are proposed as additions to G.hs that would give forth the diagnostics for failed connections between ATUs. The G.hs procedures outlined would support the detection and location of impairments like loading coils, bridge taps and crosstalk among others.
