The Use of IP Networks through the PSTN
Internet Protocol (IP) by its nature introduces delay into speech signals as each data packet is formulated and addressed. Telecom Access Standards recommends that suppliers, designers and installers using this technology for calls to or from the PSTN refer to ITU E Model requirements in the design of their networks. The overall aim is to minimize delay, distortion and other transmission impairments, particularly for those calls involving cellular and international networks, which already suffer extensive delay.
The Use of Voice Compression through the PSTN
Because of the extensive delay already experienced when calling cellular and international networks, some of which is already caused by their use of voice compression technologies. Telecom Access Standards will only approve G711 voice technology for use on the PSTN.
G711 is an ‘Instantaneous Speech encoding Technique’ whereas G729 and all its variants are considered ‘Near Instantaneous’ introducing additional delay into the speech signal.
