چکیده

Wireless-VoIP communications introduce perceptual degradations that are not present with traditional VoIP communications. This paper investigates the effects of such degradations on the performance of three state-of-the-art standard objective quality measurement algorithms—PESQ, P.563, and an “extended” E-model. The comparative study suggests that measurement performance is significantly affected by acoustic background noise type and level as well as speech codec and packet loss concealment strategy. On our data, PESQ attains superior overall performance and P.563 and E-model attain comparable performance figures.

NCTU-VT: a freeware for wireless VoIP performance measurement

Voice over IP (VoIP) is a promising low-cost voice communication over thewireless IP network. To provide satisfactoryVoIP services, theQuality of Service (QoS) of thewireless network should be guaranteed. This paper proposes aVoIP performance measurement freeware called NCTU VoIP Testing Tool (NCTU-VT). We compare NCTU-VT with two commercial tools SmartVoIPQoS and IxChariot in terms of packet l...

Adaptive VoIP Transmission over Heterogeneous Wired/Wireless Networks

In this paper, we present an adaptive architecture for the transport of VoIP traffic over heterogeneous wired/wireless Internet environments. This architecture uses a VoIP gateway associated with an 802.11e QoS enhanced access point (QAP) to transcode voice flows before their transmissions over the wireless channel. The instantaneous bit rate is determined by a control mechanism based on the es...
