Digital TDM Transmission Improvements –Echo cancellers Impairments –Codec design –bit errors –Synchronization –clock jitter –clock wander –frame slips Copyright 2006 Modern Systems Research
Digital Packet Transmission G729A codec (Coding used by most VoIP) Packetizes 30mS of audio Copyright 2006 Modern Systems Research
Digital Packet Transmission Improvements –Use extra high bandwidth –Use QOS Impairments –Packet loss comes from network congestion –Packet arrival time jitter causes increased jitter buffer length which add to latency time –Packet length packetization time 30mS –Increasing the number of hops increases packet arrival time jitter –Codec design issues Copyright 2006 Modern Systems Research
