7. August 3-4, 2004 San Jose, CA www.voipdeveloper.com VoIP Technology Advancements  Distortion – losing packets in the course of transmission  Due to network congestion, overcrowding, and overflowing buffer queues.  Packet loss <10% is acceptable.  Today VoIP suppliers provide FEC, jitter buffers, and packet error concealment techniques.  Delay – an inordinate long time to receive the voice packet  Packet delay < 200 ms is acceptable through 100 ms is optimal  A PSTN call is typically 25 ms  Historically, most of the delay is not in the network but in the equipment processing the data.  Today VoIP suppliers provide a low-latency architecture (shallow buffers) and optimized voice codecs for increased data through put.  Echo – hearing your own voice in the receiver  Typically an echo lasting >25 ms is a distraction  Both audio echo cancellation and line echo cancellation are now built into the VoIP voice framework.

9. August 3-4, 2004 San Jose, CA www.voipdeveloper.com VoIP Technology Advancements  Aborted Calls  911 Emergency Access  911 used to be the main missing feature.  Today all VoIP handsets respond in the same way as PSTN phones via E-911.  Additional features (thanks to SIP) today include voicemail, call waiting, call forwarding, conferencing, etc. VoIP Call Termination Probability:

10. August 3-4, 2004 San Jose, CA www.voipdeveloper.com VoIP Regulation Is Currently Relaxed  Today VoIP service is essentially unregulated, because VoIP is not currently defined as a “common carrier” or a “telecommunication service”. It is treated as an information service.  Bell companies and the FBI want to regulate VoIP service.  Regulation requires enabling electronic surveillance and a contribution to the Universal Service Fund.  AT&T and Jeff Pulver are effectively stating the case that VoIP is a point-to-point information service. As demonstrated by Vonage, Skype, Net2Phone and others.  Chip’s prediction: Surveillance and the USF contribution will be required.
