Basic Guidelines for Application of Performance Standards to Commissioning of DCS Digital Circuits

Abstract

The purpose of this publication is to provide technical guidance to personnel involved in the specification and commissioning of transmission systems which are to be integrated into the Defense Communications System (DCS). This publication should therefore be used in preparing performance Specifications, statements of work, TSO/TSRs, project test plans and test procedures for system acceptance testing. This publication refers to several other documents used in the design, specification, and testing of transmission resources in the DCS, such as MIL-STD-188-323, DISAC 300-175-9, and CCITT/CCIR recommendations, and interprets those documents for use in the specification and commissioning of DCS circuits. This publication interprets the requirements of military and commercial standards, and provides guidance for applying those documents to the actual specification and commissioning of DCS links. This publication specifically provides the derivation of requirements for Government- owned and leased line-of-sight (LOS), satellite, and cable transmission systems. System parameters covered are error performance, system availability, transmission delay, jitter, and bit count integrity. The document provides guidelines for testing the systems in the proper manner to demonstrate the required performance.
