For ISDN data transmission, the '''MMS43 code''' ("'''M'''odified '''M'''onitored '''S'''um '''4'''B'''3'''T") is used in Germany and Belgium on the so-called $\rm {U_{K0}}$ interface, which describes the transmission path between the exchange and home. This is a 4B3T code with four code tables, which are used for coding according to the running digital sum (after $l$ blocks):
${\it \Sigma}_{0} = 0$ is used for initialization.
The colorings in the table mean:
*If the running digital sum does not change $({\it \Sigma}_{l+1} = {\it \Sigma}_{l})$, a field is grayed out.
===Fragebogen===
*An increase $({\it \Sigma}_{l+1} > {\it \Sigma}_{l})$ is highlighted in red, a decrease $({\it \Sigma}_{l+1} < {\it \Sigma}_{l})$ in blue.
*The more intense the coloring, the larger the change.
Notes:
*The exercise belongs to the chapter [[Digital_Signal_Transmission/Block_Coding_with_4B3T_Codes|"Block Coding with 4B3T Codes"]].
*The binary symbols are denoted by $\rm L$ ("Low") and $\rm H$ ("High") in this learning tutorial. Often you can find the binary symbols $\rm L$ and $\rm 0$ $($instead of $\rm H)$ in the literature. Sometimes, however, $\rm L$ corresponds to our $\rm H$ and $\rm 0$ to $\rm L$.
*To avoid such confusion and to prevent the $\rm 0$ from appearing in both alphabets (binary and ternary) - in addition with different meanings - we have used the nomenclature which admittedly takes some getting used to. We are well aware that our nomenclature will also confuse some readers.
*You can check the results with the (German language) SWF applet [[Applets:4B3T-Codes|"Principle of 4B3T coding"]].

{Multiple-Choice Frage
{Why is a 4B3T code used for ISDN instead of the redundancy-free binary code?
|type="[]"}
|type="[]"}
- Falsch
- 4B3T is always better than the redundancy-free binary code.
+ Richtig
+ The transmitted signal should be DC signal free because of $H_{\rm K}(f=0) = 0$.
+ A smaller baud rate allows longer cable length.
{Code the binary sequence $\rm HHLL\hspace{0.08cm} LHLL\hspace{0.08cm} LHHL\hspace{0.08cm} HLHL$ $($with ${\it \Sigma}_{0} = 0)$ . <br>What is the amplitude coefficient of the third ternary symbol of the fourth block?

{Input-Box Frage
{Determine the Markov diagram for the transition from ${\it \Sigma}_{l}$ to ${\it \Sigma}_{l+1}$. What are the transition probabilities?
+ The extreme values $({\it \Sigma}_{l} = 0$ and ${\it \Sigma}_{l} = 3)$ occur less frequently than the inner values $({\it \Sigma}_{l} = 1$ and ${\it \Sigma}_{l} = 2)$.

'''(1)'''
'''(1)''' <u>Statements 2 and 3</u> are correct:
'''(2)'''
*The first statement, on the other hand, is not true: For example, the AWGN ("Additive White Gaussian Noise") channel with a 4B3T code results in a much larger symbol error probability due to the ternary decision compared to the redundancy-free binary code.
'''(3)'''
'''(4)'''
*The essential reason for the use of a redundant transmission code is rather that no DC signal component can be transmitted via a "telephone channel".
'''(5)'''
'''(6)'''
*The $25 \%$ smaller baud rate $(1/T)$ of the 4B3T code compared to the redundancy-free binary code also accommodates the transmission characteristics of symmetrical copper lines (strong increase in attenuation with frequency).
*For a given line attenuation, a greater length can be bridged with the 4B3T code than with a redundancy-free binary signal.

'''(2)''' The 4B3T coding results with the initial value ${\it\Sigma}_{0} = 0$:
'''(4)''' <u>Statements 2 and 3</u> are correct:
*Statement 1 is false, recognizable by the asymmetries in the Markov diagram.
*On the other hand, there are symmetries with respect to the states "$0$" and "$3$" as well as between "$1$" and "$2$".
*In the following calculation, instead of $ {\rm Pr}({\it \Sigma}_{l} = 0)$ we write $ {\rm Pr}(0)$ in a simplified way.
*Taking advantage of the property ${\Pr}(3) = {\Pr}(0)$ and ${\Pr}(2) = {\Pr}(1)$, we obtain from the Markov diagram:
