Foreword
An ETSI standard may be given I-ETS status either because it is regarded as a provisional solution ahead
of a more advanced standard, or because it is immature and requires a "trial period". The life of an I-ETS
is limited, to three years after which it can be converted into a European Telecommunication Standard
(ETS), have it's life extended for a further 2 years, be replaced by a new version of the I-ETS or, be
withdrawn.
This is the first Part of an I-ETS which is currently intended to comprise 6 parts.
Part 1: Electroacoustic characteristics for handset terminals when using Pulse
Code Modulation (PCM) encoding.
Part 2: Audio aspects - Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) A-Law loudspeaking and
handsfree.
Part 3: Wideband handset.
Part 4: Wideband coding and loudspeaking handsfree function.
Part 5: Application of 3,1 kHz bandwidth, 16 kbit/s speech coding algorithm.
Part 6: Application of low bitrate (below 32 kbit/s speech coding algorithm).
NOTE: Parts 3 to 6 of this I-ETS are still under study within ETSI.

1 Scope
This Part of the I-ETS specifies the electroacoustic characteristics for handset telephony functions
implemented in videotelephony terminals. Those terminals are intended for use in the videotelephony
teleservice and connected to the basic access of the coincident S and T reference point of the Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN) using Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) encoding according to CCITT
Recommendation G.711 [1], A-law and μ-law.
The videotelephony teleservice in the ISDN is defined in ETS 300 264 [2].
The requirements of this I-ETS specify those characteristics which deviate from those which an ISDN
3,1 kHz telephony terminal needs to meet due to conditions which are special for the videotelephony
application (e.g. delay, framing). The corresponding requirements to an ISDN 3,1 kHz telephony terminal
can be found in I-ETS 300 245-2 [3].
The relevant test methods are described in I-ETS 300 245-2 [3] and in ETS 300 085 [4].
NOTE: Type approval requirements for the 3,1 kHz telephony (CCITT Recommendation G.
711 [1], A-law) function of a videotelephony terminal can be found in TBR 8.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this part of the I-ETS, the following definitions apply:
digital interface: The interface at the coincident S and T reference point.
Loudness Rating Guard-ring Position (LRGP): This position is defined in ITU-T Recommendation P.64
[9].
modes of operation: For the videotelephony teleservice in the ISDN, the modes of operation are defined
in ETS 300 145 [7].
service channel: A sub-channel which provides end-to-end signalling in the 64 kbit/s channel. The
service channel consists of the eighth bit of each octet. The structure of a 64 kbit/s channel (B-channel)
and the position of the service channel is described in ETS 300 144 [8].
telephony 3,1 kHz teleservice: A description of the telephony 3,1 kHz teleservice in the ISDN is to be
found in ETS 300 111 [6].
Terminal Coupling Loss (TCL): The frequency dependent coupling loss between the receiving port and
the sending port of a terminal due to:
- acoustical coupling at the user interface;
- electrical coupling due to crosstalk in the handset cord or within the electrical circuits;
- seismic coupling through the mechanical parts of the terminal.
