Abstract

This paper presents the development of repeaters and line equipment for an experimental digital long-haul transmission system using coaxial cable. A comparison, of different types of digital transmission systems indicates that the digital repeater hybrid system with binary transmission code is the most desirable. This development has resulted in digital pulse reshaping repeaters with very small dimensions, low cost, and good reliability. Both digital repeaters that are without timing and regenerators that include timing have been developed. Their circuitry and the corresponding signal shapes are described. The dc power-feeding system and the fault-location system are also discussed. An experimental field trial with the Deutsche Bundespost was performed over 10-repeater sections of the International Telephone and Telegraph Consultative Committee (CCITT) normal coaxial tube with a section length of 1/2 mi, The experiments confirmed that a long-haul digital transmission system of 560 Mbits/s, and later of 1100 Mbits/s using the described system concept and technology, can be established with relatively low cost and good reliability.
