5. MODEM SECTION
5-1. FUNCTION
The unit uses a 1 chip modem (IC11), enabling it to act as an interface between the control section for FAX sending and
receiving, and the telephone line. During a sending operation, the digital image signals are modulated and sent to the
telephone line, while during a receiving operation, the analog image signals which are received via the telephone line are
demodulated and converted into digital image signals. The communication format and procedures for FAX communication
are standardized by ITU-T. This 1 chip modem (IC11) has hardware which sends and detects all of the necessary signals
for FAX communication and DTMF.
It can be controlled by writing commands from the ASIC (IC1) to the register in the modem (IC11).
This modem (IC11) also sends DTMF signals, generates a call tone (from the speaker), and detects a busy tone and dial
tones and DTMF.
Overview of Facsimile Communication Procedures (ITU-T Recommendation):
(1) ON ITU-T (International Telecommunications' Union.)
The No. XIV Group of ITU-T, one of the four permanent organizations of the International Telecommunications Union
(ITU), investigates and make recommendations on international standards for facsimile.
(2) Definition of Each Group
• Group
(G1)
A-4 size documents official without using formats which reduce the band width of signal sent over telephone lines.
Determined in 1968.
Transmission for about 6 minutes at scanning line density of 3.85 lines/mm.
• Group
(G2)
Using reduction technology in the modulation/demodulation format, A-4 size document is sent at an official scanning
line density of 3.85 lines/mm for about 3 minutes.
Methods to suppress redundancy are not used.
Determined in 1976.
• Group ¡ (G3)
Method of suppressing redundancy in the image signal prior to modulation is used. A-4 size document is sent within
about one minute.
Determined in 1980.
• Group ¢ (G4)
Transmission is via data network. Method is provided for suppressing redundancy in signals prior to transmission,
and error-free reception of transmission is possible.
The scope of these facsimile applications is not limited simply to transmission of written statements. Through
symbiotic linkages with other communications methods, it can be expected to expand to include integrated services.
(3) Facsimile Call Time Series
As shown in the following diagram, the facsimile call time series is divided into five phases.
Phase A : Call setting
Call setting can be manual/automatic.
Phase B : Pre-message procedure
Phase B is a pre-processing procedure and a sequence for confirming status of terminal, transmission route, etc. and
for ter-minal control. It implements terminal preparation status, determines and displays terminal constants, confirms
synchronization status, etc. and prepares for transmission of facsimile messages.
Phase C : Message transmission
Phase C is the procedure for transmission of facsimile messages.
Phase D : Post message procedure
Phase D is the procedure for confirming that the message is completed and received. In the case of continuous
transmission, return is made repeatedly to phase B or phase C for transmission.
Phase E : Call retrieval
Phase E is the procedure for call retrieval, that is, for circuit disconnection.
