re: improving the 56k V.90 modem From OSP Magazine ospmag.com 07-04-00: New voiceband modem standards; ITU agrees on enhancements The ITU agreed on three important new standards for voiceband modems in Edinburgh, Scotland, last week, at a meeting of the ITU-T Working Party 1/16 responsible for modem specifications. Building on the success of the now ubiquitous V.90 Recommendation for modems at data rates up to 56kbit/s, important enhancements have now been agreed in new Recommendation ITU-T V.92. The enhancements are: An increase of more than 40% in the maximum data rate towards the network to a new maximum of 48 kbit/s on the best connections; Significantly quicker start-up times on recognized connections, and; The ability to put the modem ‘on-hold’ when the network indicates that an incoming call is waiting. These enhancements will give significant benefits to the modem user with improved access to interactive services, and the option of exploiting voice response facilities associated with Internet browsing. The Chairman of ITU-T Study Group 16, Pierre-André Probst noted "These important new features will further improve the Internet users experience by significantly reducing connect times and providing improved access to new Internet services." “Much attention is going to DSL technologies these days, but the voiceband modem will remain the pre-dominant worldwide access technology for many years to come and these important new Recommendations will help users to get the most from this technology” said John Magill, the Chairman of the ITU-T Working Party 1/16.
