Communications Testing Seminar

Communications tests are not just for telephones! In this demo-packed seminar with communications industry expert, John Bareham, we demonstrate how to evaluate devices such as smart speakers, headphones and wearables as well as all types of phones using industry standard procedures. We discuss equipment, standards, and demonstrate sections of the TIA920B and TIA5050 standards, as well as Doubletalk measurements and POLQA analysis, all within SoundCheck.

 

Communications testing demonstrations include:

  • TIA-920B
  • TIA-5050
  • Doubletalk
  • POLQA

Presenters: Steve Temme, John Bareham, Les Quindipan
Duration: 52 mins

Communications Testing Measurement Resources

This seminar was originally broadcast on Dec 14th 2022. The recording below does not include the live Q&A at the end for attendee confidentiality reasons. However, several links to additional resources were provided during the Q&A session, and these are provided below.

  1. More about the TIA-920 Test sequence for SoundCheck This for-purchase sequence measures communications devices to TIA-920-B
  2. More about the TIA-5050 Test sequence for SoundCheck This for-purchase sequence measures communications devices to TIA-5050
  3. More about SoundCheck’s implementation of the POLQA Algorithm.
