Urban facility interconnection networks require a robustness and reliability usually found in public networks or private cable and radio networks in licensed bands. Both factors mean an increase in costs, which also increase as the size of the network increases. The recent rise in use of wireless technologies in open wavebands has attracted the interest of the industry in the spread of these types...
Gradually, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has been dominating the telecommunications world. Unfortunately, its applications are injecting a huge number of small packets in the network, which produces high overhead and therefore wastes network bandwidth. This paper proposed the use of a novel multiplexing technique, Delta-Multiplexing, to save the wasted bandwidth. In the Delta-Multiplexing technique,...
Call Admission Control (CAC) is recognized as one of the key strategies to achieve satisfactory QoS support for VoIP over IEEE 802.11 WLANs. However, most of the prior CAC solutions for VoIP over WLAN are centralized, and the few distributed CAC schemes proposed so far do not account for issues such as the loss of channel time due to medium contention and the coexistence of VoIP traffic with background...
Transmission of multimedia data in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) network is challenging. Packet loss, delay, jitter, etc. highly degrade the performance of the network. Hence more robust techniques are required to provide better level of service quality. One crucial parameter to measure service quality is packet loss. The objective of this paper is to analyze the impact of packet loss and identify...
Skype is beyond any doubt the VoIP application in the current Internet application spectrum. Its amazing success has drawn the attention of telecom operators and the research community, both interested in knowing its internal mechanisms, characterizing its traffic, understanding its users' behavior. In this paper, we investigate the characteristics of traffic streams generated by voice and video communications,...
Typically, VoIP traffic is deployed as best-effort traffic over Internet links. This voice traffic lacks effective and scalable end-to-end congestion control. We propose a new VoIP congestion control scheme called Voice-TFCC (voice TCP-friendly congestion control), that tries to keep the transmission protocol overhead to a minimum while maintaining a TCP-friendly throughput. Voice-TFCC adjusts packet...
Skype is beyond any doubt the most popular VoIP application in the current Internet application spectrum. Its amazing success drawn the attention of telecom operators and the research community, both interested in knowing Skype's internal mechanisms, characterizing traffic and understanding users' behavior. In this paper, we dissect the following fundamental components: data traffic generated by voice...
