B

Abbreviation for bel, byte.

B channel

A communications channel used for the transmission of an aggregate signal generated by multichannel transmitting equipment. 2. The CCITT (now, ITU-T) designation for a clear channel, 64-kb/s service capability provided to a subscriber under the Integrated Services Digital Network offering. Note: The B channel, also called the bearer channel, is intended for transport of user information, as opposed to signaling information.

b frame

An MPEG video frame type that provides bidirectional interframe compression. Note: A b frame derives its content from the closest 1 or P frame, one in the past and one in the future. Generating b frames requires greater computing power than does generating 1 or P frames. The use of b frames enables compression ratios of 200:1. Robust MPEG encoders employ a combination of b, 1, and P frame encoding. [After Silicon]

B3ZS

Abbreviation for bipolar with three-zero substitution. A T-carrier line code in which bipolar violations are deliberately inserted if user data contain a string of 3 or more consecutive zeros. Note 1: B3ZS is used to ensure a sufficient number of transitions to maintain system synchronization when the user data stream contains an insufficient number of “ones” to do so. Note 2: B3ZS is used in the North American hierarchy at the T3 rate.

B6ZS

Abbreviation for bipolar with six-zero substitution. A T-carrier line code in which bipolar violations are deliberately inserted if user data contain a string of 6 or more consecutive zeros. Note 1: B6ZS is used to ensure a sufficient number of transitions to maintain system synchronization when the user data stream contains an insufficient number of “ones” to do so. Note 2: B6ZS is used in the North American hierarchy at the T2 rate.
