8、n ITU-T G.799.3 Signal processing functionality and performance of an IP-to-IP voice gateway optimized for the transport of voice and voiceband data Summary As a consequence of the growth of IP and of IP services, different operators have an increased need to support bulk interconnection of voice an
9、d voiceband data traffic at the IP level. Recommendation ITU-T G.799.3 defines the signal processing functionality and performance of an IP-to-IP gateway that is optimized for the transport of voice and voiceband data. Such a gateway may be used by network operators for the bulk interconnection of v
10、oice and voiceband data traffic at the IP level. This Recommendation addresses the following areas of such an IP-to-IP gateway: codec transcoding packetization time, voice performance, facsimile, voiceband data and text telephone support, support and performance of in-band signalling tones, and jitt
11、er handling. This Recommendation does not define any new protocols but, where necessary, refers to existing protocols developed within the ITU or by other standards bodies such as the IETF. The support of tandem-free operation (TFO) and other in-band mechanisms for improving speech quality by avoidi
12、ng tandem codecs will be developed in future editions of this Recommendation. History Edition Recommendation Approval Study Group 1.0 ITU-T G.799.3 2011-05-14 16 ii Rec. ITU-T G.799.3 (05/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the f
13、ield of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standard
14、izing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is cover
15、ed 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 on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indica
16、te both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved
17、 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 requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PRO
18、PERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asser
19、ted 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 intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation.

25、ateway optimized for the transport of voice and voiceband data 1 Scope This Recommendation defines the signal processing functionality and performance of an IP-to-IP gateway that is optimized for the transport of voice and voiceband data. Such a gateway may be used by network operators for the bulk
26、interconnection of voice and voiceband data traffic at the IP level. This is not meant to restrict an IP-to-IP gateway from being used within one providers network. The following areas are addressed by this Recommendation: 1) Codec transcoding 2) Packetization time 3) Voice performance 4) Facsimile,
27、 voiceband data and text telephone support and performance 5) Support and performance of in-band signalling tones 6) Jitter handling. This Recommendation does not define any new protocols but, where necessary, refers to existing protocols developed within the ITU or by other standards development or
28、ganizations. Support of tandem-free operation (TFO) and other in-band mechanisms for improving speech quality by avoiding tandem codecs is for further study in this Recommendation. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in th

45、edia format to another different media format (examples for media type “voice“: ITU-T G.711 A-law to -law or vice versa, ITU-T G.711 codec to ITU-T G.726-40K, ITU-T G.711 to a broadband codec that operates at 256 kbit/s, etc.). 3.2 Terms defined in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the
46、 following term: 3.2.1 IP-to-IP voice gateway: Is a bearer level gateway (e.g., like ITU-T H.248 controlled media gateways), which provides interworking functions (or peering) between two IP domains. The term “voice“ indicates that the gateway is optimized for voice, voiceband data, or 164 circuit-m
47、ode data services, and that the level of interworking may also be above the IP layer (e.g., similar to layer 5 (session) peering). The term “IP-to-IP“ indicates that there is only unicast traffic at the gateway. NOTE The IP-to-IP voice gateway relates to an ITU-T H.248 controlled media gateway (MG)
48、with two IP-based ephemeral terminations per context ITU-T H.248. Depending on the various scenarios, the interworking might be “media-agnostic“ or “media-aware“, or even “transport-protocol agnostic“. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations and acronyms.
