2、TU-T Recommendation J.175 Audio server protocol Summary This Recommendation describes the architecture and protocols that are required for playing announcements in Voice-over-IP (VoIP) IPCablecom networks. Announcements are typically needed for calls that do not complete. Additionally, they may be u

3、sed to provide enhanced information services to the caller. Different carrier service feature sets require different announcement sets and announcement formats. Announcements can be as basic as fixed-content announcements (e.g., all circuits busy) or as complex as those provided by intelligent IVR (

4、Interactive Voice Response) systems. The IPCablecom service model requires that all announcements be provisioned and signalled in a standard manner for all supported call features and use case scenarios. Source ITU-T Recommendation J.175 was approved on 29 November 2005 by ITU-T Study Group 9 (2005-

5、2008) under the ITU-T Recommendation A.8 procedure. ii ITU-T Rec. J.175 (11/2005) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU

6、. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics fo

7、r study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared

8、on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may con

9、tain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express

10、requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property

11、 Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had received notice of intelle

12、ctual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. ITU 2006 All rights reserved.

16、commendation J.175 Audio server protocol 1 Scope This Recommendation describes the architecture and protocols that are required for playing announcements in Voice-over-IP (VoIP) IPCablecom networks. Announcements are typically needed for calls that do not complete. Additionally, they may be used to

17、provide enhanced information services to the caller. Different carrier service feature sets require different announcement sets and announcement formats. Announcements can be as basic as fixed-content announcements (e.g., all circuits busy) or as complex as those provided by intelligent Interactive

18、Voice Response (IVR) systems. The IPCablecom service model requires that all announcements be provisioned and signalled in a standard manner for all supported call features and use case scenarios. This Recommendation defines a set of signalling protocols that are used to provide announcement service

19、s within a cable network. For one of these protocols the IPCablecom Network Call Signalling (NCS) protocol (ITU-T Rec. J.162) this Recommendation defines two new event packages: a Base Audio Package; an Advanced Audio Package. NOTE There may be cases where audio server implementations are based on p

20、rotocols other than that specified in this Recommendation. If other protocols are implemented, those implementations MUST adhere to IPCablecom-specified architectural and functional requirements, such as security and Quality of Service (QoS), and the required features/capabilities to support interop

21、erability. A variety of such protocols exists, including protocols such as INAP, ITU-T Rec. H.248 and others. 2 References 2.1 Normative references The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recomme

29、ion defines the following term: 3.1.1 announcement servers: Also known as Audio Servers, Announcement Servers are network components that manage and play informational tones and messages in response to events that occur in the network. Most announcements are media streams that originate from servers

30、 in the network. Some simple tones and short announcements can also reside at the MTA and in the MG. 3.2 Conventions If this Recommendation is implemented, the keywords “MUST“ and “SHALL“ as well as “REQUIRED“ are to be interpreted as indicating a mandatory aspect of this Recommendation. The keyword

39、4 ITU-T Rec. J.175 (11/2005) 5 Technical overview This Recommendation defines a suite of signalling protocols for providing announcement and media services in an IPCablecom network. This clause: defines the architectural requirements for providing IPCablecom announcement and media services; defines

40、and categorizes announcement and media types; defines the components and their roles in the IPCablecom audio server architecture; and describes the signalling and media interfaces. 5.1 Architectural requirements The architectural requirements and assumptions for providing audio and media services fo

41、r an IPCablecom network are listed below. These requirements are based upon the specifications and technical reports that define the IPCablecom architecture. The reference architecture for the IPCablecom network is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1/J.175 IPCablecom network component reference model 5.1.1

42、Call destination This Recommendation defines how announcements are provided for IPCablecom on-net to off-net and on-net to on-net calls1. _ 1Announcements for off-net to on-net calls will usually be handled by the PSTN as a result of SS7 clearing messages. However, when appropriate, they may also be

43、 played from the IPCablecom Media Gateway (MG). ITU-T Rec. J.175 (11/2005) 5 5.1.2 Media formats A Media Player MUST be able to generate the required announcements in any of the code formats required by the IPCablecom Codecs specification (see ITU-T Rec. J.161). 5.1.3 Security Audio MUST be signalle

44、d and played in a secure manner. Security protocols defined in the IPCablecom security specification (see ITU-T Rec. J.170) MUST be supportable in this Recommendation. 5.1.4 Operational support systems Audio servers may be required to support the IPCablecom billing and event message protocols as def

45、ined in ITU-T Rec. J.164. At the current time, no requirement had been identified for support of event reporting by the Media Player. 5.2 Announcement definitions Announcements can be divided into four distinct categories: tones, fixed-content, variable content, and interactive announcements. 5.2.1

46、Tones Includes tones such as reorder, busy, and ringback. 5.2.2 Fixed-content announcements Fixed-content announcements consist of audio messages with fixed-content that require no user interaction. For example, “Your call did not go through. Please hang up and try your call again“. 5.2.3 Variable-c

47、ontent announcements Variable-content announcements are messages that contain a customizing parameter(s) yet require no user interaction. For example, “The number you have dialled, 321-9876, has been changed. The new number is 321-6789“. 5.2.4 Interactive announcements Interactive announcements are

48、announcements that require user interaction, DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) or IVR. For example, “The number you have dialled, 541-321-9876, has been changed. The new number is 541-321-6789. To be connected to the new number, at a cost of thirty-five cents, please press 1“. 5.2.5 Naming convention

49、s for endpoint identifiers A flat name space for endpoints is used, with audio ports indicated by the prefix aud and the port number, e.g., aud/12audio-server-. Wild cards ($, *) MAY by used in place of the port numbers in accordance with standard NCS rules for wild card use. Systems that support announcements only (i.e., no digit collection, no recording, and no speech recognition ability) MAY use the prefix ann instead of aud. Some systems may use one additional level in the naming scheme
