IP Protocols H.323, SIP, MGCP, Megaco/H.248 • H.323 • IP communications protocol for real-time voice and video over IP. • Includes core protocol and gatekeeper toolkits. • International Telecommunications Union (ITU) recommendation for audio, video, and data communications across IP-based networks. • SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) • Signaling protocol for establishing real-time calls and conferences over IP networks. • SIP is an IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) Protocol. • MGCP (Media Gateway Control Protocol) • A complementary IETF protocol to H.323 and SIP • Defines the communication procedures for a Media Gateway Controller to provide instructions and to gather information from Media Gateways • Megaco/H.248 (Media Gateway Control) • Similar to MGCP, jointly defined by the IETF and ITU-T SG-16 • Gradually replacing MGCP • Megaco renamed GCP (Gateway Control Protocol) -- RFC 3525 Slide 33 of 48 Confidential
RTP / RTCP Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) • Provides end-to-end delivery services of real-time Audio (G.711, G.723.1, G.728, etc.) and Video (H.261, H.263), • Data is transported via the user datagram protocol (UDP). • RTP provides payload-type identification, sequence numbering, time stamping, and delivery monitoring. • UDP provides multiplexing and checksum services. • RTP can be used with other transport protocols. Real-Time Transport Control Protocol (RTCP) • Counterpart of RTP that provides control services • Primary function of RTCP is to provide feedback on the quality of the data distribution – RTCP-XR • Carries transport-level identifier for an RTP source • Used by receivers to synchronize audio and video. Slide 34 of 48 Confidential

Quality of ServicesQoS • Technical Constraints • Latency is the Most Technical Problem Over Internet Telephony: by Delay, Delay Variance (or Jitter), Asymmetrical Delay, and Unpredictable Delay • Twenty (20) ms Coast-to-Coast Delay in the U.S. : Mostly Not Noticeable • Fifty (50) ms Delay is Noticeable • 250 ms Delay by the Satellites - Conversation Becomes Difficult • 350 ms Delay Over the Public Internet From Encoding and Packetizing at Both Ends of the Call • Standard Half-Duplex Sound Card: Amateur Radio Conversation Quality • Latency is Dependent on Lost a Packet (30 ms) or Packets, Packet Size, Buffer Size, Speaker Behavior Parameter, Protocol Application, Frame Delay, Speech Process Delay, Bridging Delay,PC Too Overloaded to Run Vocoder, and Protocol Limitations Slide 36 of 48 Confidential
Quality of Services (Continued) • Performance Evaluations: • Delay 200 Milliseconds From a Private IP Network With Good Encoding and Excellent DSP Technologies • Laboratory Demonstrations to Analyze Voice Quality With 100 ms, • 150 ms, 200 ms, and 250 ms Latency With the Following Setups: • 1. Workstation-to-Workstation Using the Gatekeeper • 2. Workstation-to-Phone Using the Cisco 3620 as a H.323 Gateway • 3. Phone-to-Phone Using Netrix 2210 and Cisco 3620 for Calls • Connections Through IP Network Slide 37 of 48 Confidential
