Foreword
Part 8 of this Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) was produced by the Terminal
Equipment (TE) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
An ETSI draft standard may be given I-ETS status as it is regarded either 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, at first, to three years after which it can be converted into a full European Telecommunication
Standard (ETS), have its life extended for a further two years, be replaced by a new version of the I-ETS
or, finally, be withdrawn.
This is the eighth Part of an I-ETS which comprises eight Parts:
Part 1: General.
Part 2: PCM A-law, handset telephony.
Part 3: Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) A-law, loudspeaking and hands free telephony.
Part 4: Interface for additional equipment.
Part 5: Wideband (7 kHz) handset telephony.
.
Part 6: Wideband (7 kHz), loudspeaking and hands free telephony.
Part 7: Locally generated information tones.
Part 8: Speech transmission characteristics when using Low-Delay Code-Excited Linear
Prediction (LD-CELP) coding at 16 kbit/s.
Proposed announcement date
Date of adoption of this I-ETS: 12 January 1996
Date of latest announcement of this I-ETS (doa): 30 April 1996
Introduction
The speech coding algorithm specified in CCITT Recommendation G.728 [1] is based on a digital
bitstream encoded according to CCITT Recommendation G.711 [3]. The terminal applications of the
CCITT Recommendation G.728 [1] algorithm are based on the framing structure specified in ETS 300 144
[8]. These terminals will be able to work in mode a0, i.e. using CCITT Recommendation G.711 [3]
encoding. The characteristics to be specified in this I-ETS can therefore be verified by:
- testing the audio characteristics of the terminal when it is working in mode a0;
- verifying that the speech coding algorithm is conforming to CCITT Recommendation G.728 [1].
The characteristics specified in this I-ETS are based on the principle where a limited number are specified
to test the overall characteristics of a terminal where the CCITT Recommendation G.728 [1] algorithm is
implemented.

1 Scope
Part 8 of this I-ETS specifies the technical characteristics for telephony terminals to be used at the basic
access for the coincident S and T reference point of the Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) when
using Low-Delay Code-Excited Linear Prediction (LD-CELP) coding at 16 kbit/s as specified in CCITT
Recommendation G.728 [1]. This Part applies in conjunction with I-ETS 300 245-1 [2].
The input and output bitstreams to and from the LD-CELP are encoded using the Pulse Code Modulation
(PCM) A-law encoding specified in CCITT Recommendation G.711 [3]. The speech transmission
characteristics of a handset terminal when using PCM A-law encoding are specified in I-ETS 300 245-2
[4], and the speech transmission characteristics of a hands free or loudspeaking terminal when using
PCM A-law are specified in I-ETS 300 245-3 [5]. The requirements of this Part are restricted to the
minimum set of characteristics where the implementation of the LD-CELP codec may influence the
speech transmission characteristics.
The present version of this Part does not cover measurements on receivers (in handsets) with low
acoustic output impedance.
