QoS Based Routing Protocol for Intra-Mesh Infrastructure Communications
2015
International audience; Mesh Networks (WMNs) have been considered as a promising alternative to conventional wired networks, thanks to its flexibility and easy deployment. Thus, to ensure a satisfying level of QoS guarantees for real-time and streaming applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Video on Demand (VoD), we propose a novel QoS based routing protocol for wireless mesh environments, called Hybrid QoS Mesh Routing (HQMR), jointly with a clustering algorithm to enhance scalability issues within the mesh infrastructure. HQMR is composed of two routing sub-protocols: a reactive routing sub-protocol for intra-infrastructure communications and a proactive QoS based multi-tree routin…
Inter-provider AAA and Billing of VoIP Users with Token-based Method
2007
With the increasing popularity of wireless LAN technology, providers of real-time voice over IP (VoIP) services, known as voice service providers (VSP), are asking for roaming solutions and AAA (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) methods that allow users to use their services from any available public Internet access network. In this paper we propose an AAA and billing architecture that allows users of VSPs to have access to the Internet from wired and wireless access networks provided by both traditional carriers, such as 3G providers, and wireless local access network (WLAN) providers. We propose a token-based AAA method that allows users of VoIP services to have their VSPs as …
Transport service for session initiation protocol in SIP-T scenarios
2005
The traditional telephone service has undergone deep changes in the years concerning the techniques of commutation and signaling. Today, public switched telecom networks (PSTNs) and private integrated services networks (PINSs) are strongly directed to adopt IP-based backbone. If it is possible to transfer the voice on packet switching network, in such reliable way, using voice over IP (VoIP) techniques, there is not still a valid alternative to the signaling systems, reliable and unfailing, like signaling system n.7 (SST). Session initiation protocol (SIP) seems to be the best candidate. SIP is an application layer signaling protocol and the problem remains still opened for what it concerns…
A User-Balanced System for IP Telephony in WLANs
2008
Wireless IP telephony is becoming very popular between the users of large wireless local area networks (WLANs). This increment has been mainly caused because it allows cost savings. Although, large WLANs use to provide high availability and redundancy, WLANs lack on the available throughput when there are many IP telephony users. In this paper we present a system that reallocates IP telephony devices when the system detects that an AP is overloaded. The algorithm and the frames used for our proposal are described. Measurements taken show how the bandwidth consumed is transferred from an access point to another when our proposal is running. Finally, we show the time needed to re-associate re…
Dynamic Packet Bundling for VoIP Transmission Over Rel'7 HSUPA with 10ms TTI Length
2007
In this paper, the system level optimization of the voice over IP transmission in the HSUPA system, configured with a 10 ms TTI length, is analyzed. The study considers the release 7 improvements to HSUPA, in terms of the DPCCH gating concept. A dynamic activated MAC layer bundling of two VoIP packets in a single frame is proposed and compared against the single packet per frame transmission by means of quasi-static system level simulations.
Trade-Off between Increased Talk-Time and LTE Performance
2010
The purpose of this paper is to analyze the trade-off conditions between battery saving opportunities and long term evolution network performance. To achieve this goal voice over IP with discontinuous reception is studied. Analysis is conducted with vast amount of different settings, including on duration, inactivity and discontinuous reception cycle timers. The quality of service and battery saving opportunities with discontinuous reception are evaluated with a dynamic system simulator which enables detailed simulation of multiple users and cells with realistic assumptions. This paper indicates high battery saving, i.e., increased talk-time opportunities without compromising the performanc…
A Fast Handover Method for Real-Time Multimedia Services
2006
Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) has been standardized for mobility management in the IPv6 network. When a mobile node changes its point of attachment in the IPv6 network, it experiences a time due MIPv6 procedures when it cannot receive or send any packets. This time called the handover delay might also cause packet loss resulting undesired quality-of-service degradation for various types of applications. The minimization of this delay is especially important for real-time applications. In this chapter we present a fast handover method called the flow-based fast handover for Mobile IPv6 (FFHMIPv6) to speed up the MIPv6 handover processes. FFHMIPv6 employs flow information and IPv6-in-IPv6 tunneling for…
VoIP end-to-end performance in HSPA with packet age aided HSDPA scheduling
2008
In this paper, we present an enhanced VoIP scheduling for the high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) in UMTS, which takes the age of the VoIP packet into account. The downlink capacity can be significantly improved by this way, especially for shorter uplink transmission delay. In order to quantify the achievable performance improvement, we present results obtained from extensive system-level uplink and downlink simulations. Inter alia, it is shown that using the proposed scheme can lead to an increase in the downlink cell capacity of up to 16%. By applying the proposed method, the downlink performance can be improved considerably while the uplink performance remains the same, which ensur…
Benchmarking of VoIP over HSDPA and LTE performance with realistic network data
2010
The purpose of this paper is benchmark the performance of voice over IP in high speed downlink packet access and in long term evolution networks. Benchmarking is conducted in homogeneous and heterogeneous scenario layouts assuming realistic propagation data generated over Tokyo map. Tools used in this paper are two fully dynamic time driven system simulators which have been used to support 3GPP standardization work. This benchmarking study provides insights to what e.g. different radio access technologies, scheduling mechanisms and receivers do for the performance of voice over IP. This paper indicated in various scenarios that long term evolution can offer higher performance for voice over…
Influence of Silence and Noise Filtering on Speech Quality Monitoring
2021
With the exponential increase of mobile users and internet subscribers, the utilization of voice over internet protocol (VoIP) application is increasing dramatically. People exploit different VoIP applications for effective communication, for example, Google Meet, Microsoft Skype, Zoom video conferencing applications, etc. The single-ended speech quality metrics are employed for measuring and monitoring the quality of speech. However, different types of degradations present in the surroundings distort the quality of speech. In order to meet the desired quality of experience (QoE) level of end-user while using VoIP applications, it is necessary to reduce VoIP degradations and obtain the opti…
