ITU recommendations, V-series, Naming - momo - 2004-09-23 09:23:00

Hi 
is any one familiar with the v series data modems who could help me out?
what does "bis" indicate in the naming convention? v.32 versus v.32bis?

thanx
momo

http://www.freetranslation.com/ says that 'bis' is French for
'encore'.

V.32bis is a modification or enhancement to V.32.

In European music halls, you might hear "Bis!" instead of "Encore!".
In specs, it means updated, etymologically related to "two". I believe
the official translation of v.32bis is v.32(a).

Since older specs are rarely obsoleted, it effectively means expanded
or more encompassing (if you say "enhanced", I will be forced to sneer
again) in most cases.

I may have been right in this particular case though.

V.32
A family of 2-wire, duplex modems operating at data signalling rates
of up to 9600 bit/s for use on the general switched telephone network
and on leased telephone-type circuits

V.32bis
... up to 14 400 bit/s ...

Allan

 From The Century Dictionary:

Enhance
1. To raise up; lift up; elevate.
2. To lift up to a higher degree; increase to a higher point; carry
    upward or to a greater extent; heighten; make greater, as prices
    or one's reputation or dignity ...

It doesn't mean improved or enlarged, and it's a stretch to read "more
encompassing" into it. Note that it properly refers to a price increase.
So yes, it may have been right in this case. Can one un-scream?

From http://www.dictionary.com
( http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=enhance )

Enhance
1  To make greater, as in value, beauty, or effectiveness; augment.
2  To provide with improved, advanced, or sophisticated features. 

I give up.

So do I. It seems that the hype has made it to the dictionary. I lose,
but so does the specificity of the language.

bis has that sense. However, in the ITU specs. it specifically means the 
second version of the spec. There are some specs with later editions, 
where the name reflects that. For example, the version of V.27 used in 
FAX machines in V.27ter - the third version. The ITU can be a little 
wacky with its numbering, though. Some specs have been completely 
renumbered. G.726 is what used to be G.723, and G.723.1 is now something 
completely different.

Regards,
Steve
