Abstract

VoIP calls are sensitive to several impairments, such as delay and packet loss. One way to overcome these problems is by adaptively adjusting application-layer parameters to keep a minimum speech quality level. At the heart of self-adaptive systems lies a feedback loop, which consists of four key activities: monitoring, analysis, planning, and execution. Nevertheless, the existing adaptive approaches to QoS control of VoIP do not explicitly exhibit this feedback loop. Bringing it to surface can help developers in designing more robust and human-independent VoIP systems. This survey presents a comprehensive review of the current state-of-the-art research on speech quality adaptation of VoIP systems at the application layer and some research challenges on this subject.

Survey on application-layer mechanisms for speech quality adaptation in VoIP

Recommendations

Voice quality prediction models and their application in VoIP networks

The primary aim of this paper is to present new models for objective, nonintrusive, prediction of voice quality for IP networks and to illustrate their application to voice quality monitoring and playout buffer control in VoIP networks. The ...
A New Buffer Algorithm for Speech Quality Improvement in VoIP Systems

Jitter buffer plays an important role in Voice over IP (VoIP) applications because it provides a key mechanism for achieving good speech quality to meet technical and commercial requirements. The main objective of this paper is to propose a new, simple-...
A Comparative Study of VoIP Standards with Asterisk
ICDT '09: Proceedings of the 2009 Fourth International Conference on Digital Telecommunications

Since the apparition of Voice over IP (VoIP), many standards (mainly signaling protocols and codecs) have arisen with the aim of enabling voice calls through data networks. This paper describes a comparative study to evaluate the performance of a ...
