Characterization of the Digital High-Speed AUTOVON Channel

Abstract

AUTOVON, a voice telephone communication system available to U. S. Government agencies, can be used for the transmission of high-speed digital data. The performance of AUTOVON in passing 4800 b/s and 9600 b/s digital data is evaluated in terms of the residual channel error distributions associated with the use of the state-of-the-art Codex 9600 modem. It is demonstrated that the channel is a burst error channel and will support data transmission with bit error rates in the order of 0.0001 to 0.00001. In addition, channel models are presented that can be used to predict the performance and design of error-detecting/correcting codes.
