Foreword This Technical Report (TR) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Speech Processing, Transmission and Quality Aspects (STQ). ETSI ETSI TR 102 430 V1.1.1 (2005-06) 6 1 Scope The present document gives an overview and critique

19、of the current developments in speech quality in packet based networks, including both the Internet and planned Next Generation Networks. The aim is to provide an overview of the main issues and their significance and to identify areas that need further work. The present document is written at a lev

20、el suitable for technical managers and engineers who are relatively new to the subject. It does not cover the issues at the depth that will be needed by a detailed specialist but its breadth should provide a valuable perspective for the specialist. The present document includes a discussion of how t

21、he market for telecommunications is developing and how the issues concerning speech quality in packet based networks will play a pivotal role in the increasing competition between the proposed telco NGN networks and the public Internet. The present document attempts to answer the following questions

22、: - What are the main issues? - Which issues are being solved satisfactorily? - How useful are the various approaches? - Can end-end quality be guaranteed? - How vulnerable is voice quality in a packet environment? - How do you design for good quality? - Do we need end-end signalling or lower layer

23、class based treatment or both? The present document is applicable to all forms of real-time 2-way conversational speech communications over packet based networks, including both telco NGN networks and the public Internet. 2 References For the purposes of this Technical Report (TR), the following ref

44、 the telecommunications market currently lacks direction. After a period of diverse investments, many of which have not been profitable, the top priority for many operators is to manage their short term financial objectives. In terms of fundamental resources: local physical infrastructure remains ex

45、pensive; transmission costs has fallen and is falling very rapidly thanks to a combination of absolute costs (cost per bit) and coding that enables more use to be made of a bit, i.e. more information may be transmitted via the same amount of bits (e.g. voice coding); NOTE 1: Transmission bit (not in

46、formation bit). switching costs are falling but faster for packet-based switching than for circuit-based switching, because packet based technology is benefiting from large economies of scale from its use in corporate networks and the public Internet? billing costs are falling only slowly, and the o

47、verheads of running a telecommunications business are increasing as a result of increased regulatory compliance costs including areas such as data protection. This situation leaves telcos re-focusing on core business and in particular developing broadband access networks. There is a great deal of di

48、scussion and confusion about how telecommunications networks will develop at a technical level in the next few years. Three years ago everyone was expecting the rapid and near universal adoption of IP technology but since then the whole investment climate has changed and the current situation is muc

49、h less clear. Some established operators are formulating plans for a fairly rapid migration to packet technology whilst others are waiting and planning to extend the lifetime of their existing switched infrastructure for as long as possible. In the Internet world, there is substantial growth in VoIP services, the most well known being Skype. Figure 1 shows a credible view of how networks will change.
