What is balancing the side tone ?

•
To understand that side tone balancing
is to counteract
transmitted via the microphone and
transmitter to the line, returning to the
earphone via the receiver.
That presence of a strong side tone
signal is disturbing in a way that one
quite instictively lowers ones own voice
level thus lowering the signal level for
the other party. But again, if the balance
is too good (seldom the case) the
earphone will feel ”dead”. In practical
terms what is expected is the same
amplitude of ones own voice in the ear
as when not talking in a telephone.
The need to lower the side tone level
where no balancing has been done is
in the order of 6 - 12 dB.
influenced by other factors like, the
impedance of the line and the signal
that enters the ear acoustically directly
from the mouth and from the mouth
through the material in the handset.
The signal that enters the microphone
from the earphone acoustically will
also influence the return loss factor to
the telephone line.
To understand
network can be trimmed to form a
veritable ”distortion analyser”, so that
the distortion that is present from the
microphone, will be the only signal
entering the earphone and this signal
even being small will sound very bad. It
is better to induce some of the funda-
mental frequency back by making the
balance less perfect at that frequency.
This is valid for a network that is trim-
med to only one frequency. It is to
strive to trim the network such that it will
attenuate the fundamental and the
harmonic frequencies alike throughout
the different line combinations.
To understand that if one of the two
signals entering the balancing system
from either direction,
microphone or via the line is clipped,
will result in a very distorted signal
entering the receiver amplifier and thus
the earphone. Further , to remember
that side tone is a small signal that is
the difference of two large signals and
that the amplitude of the distortion can
be up to ten times the amplitude of the
fundamental frequency.

make the balancing difficult.

By placing the balancing network like shown
in fig.14. the possible signal level is 6 dB
higher than in the first case and it will also
help in case that a volume control is added
to the receiver.
