Abstract:
A measuring device (29) for the interface (2) of a transmission link (1) with full-duplex transmission in two-wire common band operation, in which an interface module (3) is on the one hand connected to said interface (2) via a hybrid circuit (5) and a transformer (6), and a line termination (LT) or a network termination (NT) is connected thereto as a test object (7), on the other hand, in which the measuring device (29) is of the type that includes means (8) for simulating the arrangement of the hybrid circuit (5), transformer (6) and line or network termination (7), the input of said means (8) being connected to transmission outputs (4) of the interface module (3) via a high-impedance differential amplifier (9) and the output thereof being connected to an input (14) of a subtractor (15) via a further high-impedance differential amplifier (13), a further input (16) of the subtractor (15) being connected to the interface (2) via an additional high-impedance differential amplifier (17), and the output (18) of the subtractor (15) communicates with a measuring system (28) wherein the measuring system (28) comprises:a differentiator (19) followed by a comparator (25) connected to the output of the subtractor (15), the output from the differentiator being compared with a reference signal in the comparator, anda jitter measuring device (26) is post-connected to the comparator (25).
