An Adaptive Jitter Buffer Playout Algorithm for Enhanced VoIP Performance
نویسندگان
چکیده
The QoS standard of a VoIP session degrades if its stringent time requirements are not met. Low end-to-end delay of the voice packets and low packet loss must be maintained. Jitter between voice packets must also be within tolerable limits. Jitter hampers voice quality and makes the VoIP call uncomfortable to the user. Very often, buffers are used to store the received packets for a short time before playing them at equal spaced intervals to minimize jitter. However, this introduces the problem of added end-to-end delay and discarded packets. In this paper, some established adaptive jitter buffer playout algorithms have been studied and a new algorithm has been proposed. The network used for the analysis of the algorithms has been simulated using OPNET modeler 14.5.A. The proposed algorithm kept jitter within a tolerable limit along with drastic reduction of delay and loss compared to other algorithms analyzed in this paper.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a technology that allows you to make voice calls using a broadband Internet connection instead of a regular (or analog) phone line. Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has led human speech to a new level, where conversation across continents can be much cheaper & faster. However, as IP networks are not designed for real-time applications, the network impai...
متن کاملOptimal Adaptive Voice Smoother with Lagrangian Multiplier Method for VoIP Service
VoIPs, emerging technologies, offer high-quality, real-time voice services over IP-based broadband networks. Perceived voice quality is a key metric for VoIP applications that is mainly affected by IP network impairments such as delay, jitter, and packet loss. Playout buffers at the receiving end can compensate for the effects of jitter based on a tradeoff between delay and loss. Adaptive smoot...
متن کاملPrediction of perceived conversational speech quality and effects of playout buffer algorithms
Perceived conversational speech quality is a key quality of service (QoS) metric for voice over IP (VoIP) applications. Speech quality is mainly affected by network impairments, such as delay, jitter and packet loss. Playout buffer algorithms are used to compensate for jitter, based on a tradeoff between delay and loss, but can have a significant effect on perceived quality. The main aim in thi...
