10、ecommendation E.470 Operational considerations for QoS of voice over IP-based networks with PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture Summary It is recognized that IP-based networks are increasingly used to deliver voice services to customers. These networks can impact the end-to-end service quality perceived by us

11、ers. In order to maintain network performance required to deliver the desired service quality, several operational issues have to be considered. These issues include defining network performance measures and their objectives, interworking issues between networks employing a variety of technologies,

12、network measurement points, information to be exchanged between network operators, etc. ITU-T Study Group 13 on “Next-generation networks“ has defined four key scenarios to be considered in their IP framework document: Scenario a: A voice call from an IP terminal connected to an IP-based network to

13、a PSTN phone; Scenario b: A voice call from a PSTN phone to an IP terminal connected to an IP-based network; Scenario c: A voice call from a PSTN phone to another PSTN phone via an IP-based network; Scenario d: A voice call from an IP terminal connected to an IP-based network to another IP terminal

14、connected to an IP-based network via PSTN. This Recommendation focuses only on Scenario c. In Scenario c, both ends are PSTN (telephone) terminals and connected to PSTN at least as a local access (PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture). This network architecture is employed or planned to be employed by many ROA

15、s all over the world. In this case, the user may not be aware of the changes in the underlying technology and the QoS expectations may be expected to remain the same. This Recommendation is for providing the general aspects of voice services in PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture, especially, for providing in

16、formation whether or not the existing ITU-T Recommendations could be applicable to PSTN-IP-PSTN voice architecture. Also, it covers the general impacts of IP networks to voice services and provides an overview of the performance measurement/management scope. Source ITU-T Recommendation E.470 was app

17、roved on 24 February 2005 by ITU-T Study Group 2 (2005-2008) under the WTSA Resolution 1 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. E.470 (02/2005) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardiz

18、ation Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which m

19、eets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-T

20、s purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation i

21、s voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ a

22、nd the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may in

23、volve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Re

24、commendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database

This network architecture is employed or planned to be employed by many ROAs all over the world. In this case, the user may not be aware of the cha

This Recommendation is for providing the general aspects of voice services in PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture, especially, for providing information whether or not the existing ITU-T Recommendations could be app

33、licable to PSTN-IP-PSTN voice architecture. Also, it covers the general impacts of IP networks to voice services and provides an overview of the performance measurement/management scope. The outline of this Recommendation is as follows. Clause 2 presents the normative references. In order to resolve

34、 operational issues, a reference architecture is presented in clause 3. In clause 4, the QoS framework is discussed along with the network performance and QoS parameter which were already defined by ITU-T Study Group 2 on “Operational aspects of service provision, networks and performance“, Study Gr

35、oup 12 on “Performance and quality of service“ and Study Group 13 that apply to the PSTN-IP-PSTN scenario. Clause 5 discusses key network performance parameters that are usually defined in the E-series Recommendations and identifies new parameters that may need to be defined. In clause 6, IP network

36、 impacts to voice services are discussed. Clause 7 describes QoS measurement and management sections with related issues. Lastly, in clause 8, several issues for further study are pointed out. 2 ITU-T Rec. E.470 (02/2005) 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain

45、 architectures for PSTN-IP-PSTN voice service A basic reference architecture of PSTN-IP-PSTN VoIP services could be as in Figure 1. Its difference from the existing PSTN for voice service is the addition of Interworking Function Block between PSTN and IP-based network (IWFB) to the existing PSTN arc

46、hitecture. This Interworking Function Block between PSTN and IP-based network: interworks between PSTN and IP-based network; is an essential part for voice services of PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture; is composed of Media Gateway Controller, Media Gateway and IP-based network. Figure 1/E.470 General confi

47、guration of PSTN-IP-PSTN voice service The elements in Figure 1 are as follows: PSTN terminal: PSTN telephone; PSTN clouds: Domestic and/or International Exchanges would be included; IP-based Network clouds: Internet Protocol based network; Media Gateway: Media conversion gateway between PSTN and IP

48、 network; Media Gateway Controller: Controller for Media gateway; Media Gateway Control Protocol: Control protocol for media gateway (e.g., H.323, SIP, MGCP, Megaco/H.248). NOTE 1 Figure 1 shows the generic architecture for interworking of PSTN and IP technologies. So, there could be more than one I

49、P-based network cloud. The figure does not attempt to show ownership of network domains. NOTE 2 In Figure 1, there is no attempt to show a product-specific or vendor-specific name. NOTE 3 The interworking between circuit-switched signalling and IP signalling on the availability of features and the ability to accurately determine call disposition could be done by the Media Gateway control protocol and the SIGTRAN protocol. Another view of PSTN-IP-PSTN architecture could be as
