Standard Telegraph Level

In telecommunication, standard telegraph level (STL) is the power per individual telegraph channel required to yield the standard composite data level.

For example, for a composite data level of -13 dBm at 0-dBm transmission level point (0TLP), the STL would be approximately -25 dBm for a 16-channel VFCT terminal computed from STL = - (13+10log10 n ), where n is the number of telegraph channels and the STL is in dBm.

Famous quotes containing the words standard and/or level:

    Where shall we look for standard English but to the words of a standard man?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To punish drug takers is like a drunk striking the bleary face it sees in the mirror. Drugs will not be brought under control until society itself changes, enabling men to use them as primitive man did: welcoming the visions they provided not as fantasies, but as intimations of a different, and important, level of reality.
    Brian Inglis (b. 1916)
