GG.711 The 64-kbps PCM voice coding technique. In G.711, en co de d voice is al read y
in the correct format for digital voice delivery in the PSTN or through PBXs.
Described in the ITU-T standard in its G-series recommendations.
G.723.1 Compression technique that can be used for compre ssin g spee ch or au dio s ign al
components at a very low bit rate as part of the H.324 family of standards. This
codec has two bit rates associated with it: 5.3 and 6.3 kbps. The higher bit rate
is based on ML-MLQ technology and provides a somewhat higher quality of
sound. The lower bit rate is based on CELP and provides system designers with
additional flexibility. Described in the ITU-T standard in its G-series
recommendations.
G.729A CELP compression where voice is coded into 8-kbp s st r eam s. Th ere ar e two
variations of this standard (G.729 and G.729 Annex A) that differ mainly i n
computational complexity; both provide speech quality similar to 32-kbps
ADPCM. Described in the ITU-T standard in its G-series recommendations.
GMT Greenwich Mean Time.
IICMP Internet Control Message Protocol. Network-layer Internet protocol that reports
errors and provides other information relevant to IP packet processing.
Documented in RFC 792.
IETF Internet Engineering Task Force. Task force consisting of over 80 working
groups responsible for developing Internet standards.
IP Internet Protocol. Network-layer protocol in the TCP/IP stack offering a
connectionless internetwork service. IP provides features for addressing,
type-of-service specification, fragmentation and reassembly, and security.
Defined in RFC 79 1.
