Electronic Switching Systems in Japan
M. Yamauchi, Y. Nakagome · IRE Transactions on Communications Systems · 1972
A recently introduced large-size commercially available electronic switching system has versatility in application to different hierarchies of switching stages and is available not only in the telephone systems, but for forthcoming new telecommunication services such as video telecommunications, data applications, mobile radio telephones, etc. Successive developmental programs are now in progress for remote control switching systems, a small-medium-size electronic switching system and data-switching systems. In the international telecommunication field, an electronic telegraph switching system has been completed and electronic telex and telephone switching systems and a data-switching system are now under development. This paper describes some features of various electronic switching systems available in Japan for domestic and international telecommunications.
