SSH ETS 300 729:1997 ed.1

Digital cellular telecommunications system; Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) for Enhanced Full Rate (EFR) speech traffic channels (GSM 06.81)

Scope

This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) gives a description of the general baseband operation of Enhanced Full Rate speech traffic channels in the transmitter and in the receiver of GSM Mobile Stations (MS)s and Base Station Systems (BSS)s during Discontinuous Transmission (DTX). For clarity, the description is structured according to the block diagrams in figures 1 and 4. Except in the case described next, this structure of distributing the various functions between system entities is not mandatory for implementation, as long as the operation on the air interface and on the speech decoder output remains the same.
