Chapter 1 Introduction

 

 

In addition to the translation of individual bits, the signaling profiles can also be used to define the signaling bit patterns that indicate the idle and OOS states.

CCS – The signaling information is transferred transparently to the host, which encapsulates the HDLC frame with the proper IP header and sends it to the main link. The following protocols are supported: ISDN, QSIG and SS7. HDLC data can be extracted from any set of timeslots and sent to a single destination. When operating with SS7 signaling, it is possible to control amount of the keep-alive bits transferred over the signaling links.

Compression

The DSPs handle the voice traffic by compressing it according to G.723.1 (6.4 or

5.3kbps) and G.729 A (8 kbps), or digitizes it according to the G.711 requirements (A-law and -law). Compression methods are user-selectable per bundle.

Voice Activity Detection

Voice Activity Detection (VAD) uses digital signal processing techniques to distinguish between silence and speech on a voice connection. VAD reduces the bandwidth requirements of a voice connection by generating traffic only during periods of active voice conversation. With Comfort Noise Generation supported at the remote site, VAD significantly reduces bandwidth consumption without degrading voice quality. VAD achieves additional bandwidth savings when combined with voice compression techniques.

TDMoIP Multiplexing

Compressed voice payload is multiplexed by using the TDMoIP technique. The multiplexing is performed by the Vmux-2100 software. The DSPs send a continuous stream of voice packets; which are put together into a TDMoIP frame by adding AAL2 headers and a TDMoIP header. Figure 1-6illustrates the TDMoIP frame structure.

Figure 1-6. TDMoIP Frame Structure

The size of TDMoIP frame is determined by the following parameters:

Packetizing interval – Defining time interval allocated for the TDMoIP frame aggregation (10 to 90 msec).

Maximum bytes per multiplexed frame – Specifying the maximum size of each frame (100 to 1461 bytes).
