Optimization of resources allocation for H.323 endpoints and terminals over VoIP networks

27 January 2014 (has links)
M.Phil. (Electrical & Electronic Engineering) / Without any doubt, the entire range of voice and TV signals will migrate to the packet network. The universal addressable mode of Internet protocol (IP) and the interfacing framing structure of Ethernet are the main reasons behind the success of TCP/IP and Ethernet as a packet network and network access scheme mechanisms. Unfortunately, the success of the Internet has been the problem for real-time traffic such as voice, leading to more studies in the domain of Teletraffic Engineering; and the lack of a resource reservation mechanism in Ethernet, which constitutes a huge problem as switching system mechanism, have raised enough challenges for such a migration. In that context, ITU-T has released a series of Recommendation under the umbrella of H.323 to guarantee the required Quality of Service (QoS) for such services. Although the “utilisation” is not a good parameter in terms of traffic and QoS, we are here in proposing a multiplexing scheme with a queuing solution that takes into account the positive correlations of the packet arrival process experienced at the multiplexer input with the aim to optimize the utilisation of the buffer and bandwidth on the one hand; and the ITU-T H.323 Endpoints and Terminals configuration that can sustain such a multiplexing scheme on the other hand. We take into account the solution of the models from the M/M/1 up to G/G/1 queues based on Kolmogorov’s analysis as our solution to provide a better justification of our approach. This solution, the Diffusion approximation, is the limit of the Fluid process that has not been used enough as queuing solution in the domain of networking. Driven by the results of the Fluid method, and the resulting Gaussian distribution from the Diffusion approximation, the application of the asymptotic properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) as the central limit theorem allowed capturing the fluctuations and therefore filtering out the positive correlations in the queue system. This has resulted in a queue system able to serve 1 erlang (100% of transmission link capacity) of traffic intensity without any extra delay and a queue length which is 60% of buffer utilization when compared to the ordinary Poisson queue length.

Design of a practical voice over internet protocol network for the multi user enterprise

Loubser, Jacob Bester 06 1900 (has links)
Thesis (M. Tech. Engineering: Electrical--Vaal University of Technology. / This dissertation discusses the design and implementation of a voice over internet protocol system for the multi-user enterprise. It is limited to small to medium enterprises of which the Vaal University of Technology is an example. Voice communications over existing Internet protocol networks are governed by standards, and to develop such a system it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of these standards. Two such standards namely the International Telecommunications Unions H.323 and the Internet Engineering Task Force's SIP were evaluated and compared to each other in terms of their complexity, extensibility and scalability as well as the services they offer. Based on these criteria it was decided to implement a SIP system. A SIP network consists of application software that act as clients and servers, as well as hardware components such as a proxy and redirect and registrar or location servers that allow users of this network to call each other on the data network. Gateways enable users of the network to call regular public switched telephone network numbers. A test network was set up in the laboratory that contained all the hardware and software components. This was done to understand the installation and configuration options of the different software components and to determine the suitability and interoperability of the software components. This network was then migrated to the network of the Vaal University of Technology which allowed selected users to test and use it. Bandwidth use is a major point of contention, and calculations and measurements showed that the codec being used during the voice call is the determining factor. This SIP system is being used on a daily basis and the users report excellent audio quality between soft phones and soft phones, soft phones and normal telephones and even cellular phones.

A transparent settlement model and network architecture for mobile voice over Internet protocol (VOIP) service provider.

Mfupe, Luzango. January 2011 (has links)
M. Tech. Electrical Engineering. / A virtual Mobile Voice over IP (MVoIP) service can be implemented by a Mobile VoIP Operator (MVoIPO) in conjunction with a Mobile Network Operator (MNO). MVoIPOs do not operate their own mobile network infrastructure. Instead, they use the MNO's packet-based cellular network. However, the coexistence between the MVoIPO and the MNO raises two related problems: first, how to handle interconnection settlements, and second, how to (inter)connect the two operators to make such settlements. This dissertation uses a game-theoretic modelling approach to show that it is mutually beneficial economically if the MNO allows the MVoIPO to operate on its network. Further, a Service Level Agreement (SLA)-based Transparent Settlement Agreement (TSA) model is proposed to solve the first problem. The TSA model algorithm calculates the MVoIPO's throughput distribution at the edge of a UMTS Core Network (CN). This facilitates the determination of levels of conformance to the pre-set throughput thresholds and, subsequently, the issuing of compensation to the MVoIPO by the MNO after generating an economically acceptable volume of traffic. Further, possible network architecture to solve the second problem is suggested, by combining the TSA model algorithm, the UMTS CN, the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS), and the Online Charging System (OCS)

Context-aware semantic web service for VOIP crisis management.

Agutu, Gordon. Otieno M. January 2009 (has links)
M. Tech. Electrical Engineering. / Proposes a voice and video service that uses context-awareness and Semantic Web technologies to restrict network access to non-privileged users during crisis situations. The laboratory tests show how the service takes over call adission control from the SIP server, rejects non-privileged calls and drops non-privileged ongoing call sessions. OPNet simulations further show how to proposed service improves network performance based on performance parameters such as end-to-end delay time and throughput.
