国际电信联盟(ITU)的一个研究小组已解决了阻碍56Kbps调制解调器标准制定的两个最大的问题,很可能在下月批准通用的规范。本月早些时候,国际电信联盟的一个下属机构在佛罗里达州奥兰多举行的会议上,投票通过了Intel公司提出的折衷方案,即号召使用3Com公司的映射技术和Motorola公司的光谱整形技术。ITU在9月份未能解决在标准中实施哪一种光谱整形和映射技术这一有争议的问题。这一决定对56Kbps标准来说是一个突破。数月来,该项标准在两个互不兼容的阵营之间分歧很大:3Com公司的x2技术与 A team from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has tackled two of the biggest issues blocking the standardization of 56Kbps modems and is likely to approve common specifications next month. Earlier this month, a subsidiary of the International Telecommunication Union voted through a compromise proposed by Intel Corp. at a conference in Orlando, Florida, that called for the use of 3Com’s mapping technology and Motorola’s spectral shaping technology. In September, the ITU failed to address the controversial issue of which spectral shaping and mapping technology to implement in the standards. This decision is a breakthrough for the 56Kbps standard. For months, the standard has been divided between two incompatible camps: 3Com’s x2 technology
