  • Can Skype Be More Satisfying? a Qoe-Centric Study of the FEC
    HUANG LAYOUT 2/22/10 1:14 PM Page 2 Could Skype Be More Satisfying? A QoE-Centric Study of the FEC Mechanism in an Internet-Scale VoIP System Te-Yuan Huang, Stanford University Polly Huang, National Taiwan University Kuan-Ta Chen, Academia Sinica Po-Jung Wang, National Taiwan University Abstract The phenomenal growth of Skype in recent years has surpassed all expectations. Much of the application’s success is attributed to its FEC mechanism, which adds redundancy to voice streams to sustain audio quality under network impairments. Adopting the quality of experience approach (i.e., measuring the mean opinion scores), we examine how much redundancy Skype adds to its voice streams and systematically explore the optimal level of redundancy for different network and codec settings. This study reveals that Skype’s FEC mechanism, not so surprisingly, falls in the ballpark, but there is surprisingly a significant margin for improvement to ensure consistent user satisfaction. here is no doubt that Skype is the most popular VoIP data, at the error concealment level. service. At the end of 2009, there were 500 million Hereafter, we refer to the redundancy-based error conceal- users registered with Skype, and the number of concur- ment function of the system as the forward error correction rent online users regularly exceeds 20 million.

    2. přenáška Hlas a jeho kódování 1 Osnova přednášky 1. Zpracování hlasu 2. Kodeky 2 1. Hlas 3 Hlas Kmitočet hlasivek je charakterizován základním tónem lidského hlasu (pitch periode) F0, který tvoří základ znělých zvuků (tj. samohlásek a znělých souhlásek). Kmitočet základního tónu je různý u dětí, dospělých, mužů i žen, pohybuje se většinou v rozmezí 150 až 4 000 Hz. Sdělení zprostředkované řečovým signálem je diskrétní, tzn. může být vyjádřeno ve tvaru posloupnosti konečného počtu symbolů. Každý jazyk má vlastní množinu těchto symbolů – fonemů, většinou 30 až 50. Hlásky řeči dále můžeme rozdělit na znělé (n, e, ...), neznělé (š, č, ...) a jejich kombinace. Znělá hláska představuje kvaziperiodický průběh signálu, neznělá pak signál podobný šumu. Navíc energie znělých hlásek je větší než neznělých. Krátký časový úsek znělé hlásky můžeme charakterizovat její jemnou a formantovou strukturou. Formantem označujeme tón tvořící akustický základ hlásky. Ten vlastně představuje spektrální obal řečového signálu. Jemná harmonická struktura představuje chvění hlasivek. 4 Příklad časového a kmitočtového průběhu znělého a neznělého segmentu hovorového signálu Blíže http://www.itpoint.cz/ip-telefonie/teorie/princip-zpracovani-hlasu-ip-telefonie.asp 5 Pásmo potřebné pro telefonii 6 Pěvecké výkony jsou mimo oblast IP telefonie Blíže diskuze na http://forum.avmania.e15.cz/viewtopic.php?style=2&f=1724&t=1062463&p=6027671&sid= 7 2.

Sinusoidal Model Based Packet Loss Concealment for Wideband VoIP Applications Abstract Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has become very popular in recent years. However, since internet delivery does not guarantee quality of service, data packets are often lost due to network congestions or significantly delayed. Packet loss is a fundamental problem in VoIP networks, unless concealed in some way, it produces an annoying disturbance in the resulting gaps. Therefore, there is considerable interest in developing Packet Loss Concealment (PLC) algorithms to compensate for missing voice packets. In this thesis, a new method for concealment of the missing packets for wideband VoIP applications is presented.

  • White Paper Optimal Codec Selection in International IP Based Voice
    INTERNATIONAL INTERCONNECTION FORUM FOR SERVICES OVER IP (i3 FORUM) (www.i3forum.org) Workstream “Technical Aspects” White Paper Optimal Codec Selection in International IP based Voice Networks (Release 2.0) May 2010 “Optimal Codec Selection in International IP based Voice Networks”, Rel. 2.0, May 2010 1 i3 Forum Proprietary Document Executive Summary This White Paper assists in correct codec selection in different IP based voice interconnection configurations, as well as to predict IP-based voice interconnection configurations which will have unacceptable voice quality degradation. Codec engineering (the practical application of codecs) in IP based Voice networks is more complex in comparison to existing TDM networks; this document deals with the factors and configurations indispensable in correct network configuration and interconnection agreement planning, which have to be considered in order to deliver voice quality levels satisfactory for Service Providers. Having introduced codec basics, quality planning basics and the significance of proper codec choice, this White Paper provides a methodology, spreadsheets and a calculation template useful to evaluate codec choice(s) for a particular distance of network configuration, thus indicating if it will be possible to achieve the required speech quality. If this calculation shows that expected (customer) quality will be below a satisfactory level it is possible to go through the calculations step by step and try to change codec or other parameters to reach the desired quality level. It is shown that transcoding significantly affects call quality, and should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. The impact of transcoding is likely to be much higher when a chain of downstream carriers is involved in the end-user to end-user communication, than for bilateral interconnections engineered directly between network operators, and may necessitate different network configurations being sought.

  • Identification of Peer-To-Peer Voip Sessions Using Entropy and Codec
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS, VOL. X, NO. X, MONTH 2011 1 Identification of Peer-to-Peer VoIP Sessions Using Entropy and Codec Properties Joao˜ V. Gomes, Pedro R. M. Inacio,´ Manuela Pereira, Mario´ M. Freire, and Paulo P. Monteiro Abstract—Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) applications based on peer-to-peer (P2P) communications have been experiencing considerable growth in terms of number of users. To overcome filtering policies or protect the privacy of their users, most of these applications implement mechanisms such as protocol obfuscation or payload encryption that avoid the inspection of their traffic, making it difficult to identify its nature. The incapacity to determine the application that is responsible for a certain flow raises challenges for the effective management of the network. In this article, a new method for the identification of VoIP sessions is presented. The proposed mechanism classifies the flows, in real-time, based on the speech codec used in the session. In order to make the classification lightweight, the behavioral signatures for each analyzed codec were created using only the lengths of the packets. Unlike most previous approaches, the classifier does not use the lengths of the packets individually. Instead, it explores their level of heterogeneity in real- time, using entropy to emphasize such feature. The results of the performance evaluation show that the proposed method is able to identify VoIP sessions accurately and simultaneously recognize the used speech codec. Index Terms—Data communications, distributed applications, network communications, network management, network monitoring, packet-switching networks. F 1 Introduction applications, or an extension of the Extensible Messaging he popularity of Voice over Internet Protocol and Presence Protocol (XMPP), used by Google Talk, are T (VoIP) applications relying on the peer-to-peer (P2P) good examples of such VoIP systems.
