Position Information for VoIP Emergency Calls - Originating from a Wireless Metropolitan Access Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article describes a mechanism to provide location information about users of a wireless metropolitan access network to trusted and authorized third parties. A case of particular interest is that of providing emergency centers with the location of the VoIP caller. The location information is obtained from the wireless access points using SNMP polling, and stored in a location server. The outbound SIP proxy server requests the user’s location and includes it in the SIP invite message when the callee is an emergency center.

A Survey on Voice over IP over Wireless LANs
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a form of voice communication that uses audio data to transmit voice signals to the end user. VoIP is one of the most important technologies in the World of communication. Around, 20 years of research on VoIP, some problems of VoIP are still remaining. During the past decade and with growing of wireless technologies, we have seen that many papers turn thei...
متن کاملVoIP Capacity - Analysis, Improvements, and Limits in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN
Wireless voice over internet protocol (VoIP) is an important emerging service in telecommunication due to its potential for replacing cell phone communication wherever a wireless local area network (WLAN) is installed. Recent studies, however, suggest that the number of voice calls that can be supported in the widely deployed IEEE 802.11 WLAN is limited. In this paper, we utilize a so-called tr...
متن کاملThe Village Telco project: a reliable and practical wireless mesh telephony infrastructure
VoIP (Voice over IP) over mesh networks could be a potential solution to the high cost of making phone calls in most parts of Africa. The Village Telco (VT) is an easy to use and scalable VoIP over meshed WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) telephone infrastructure. It uses a mesh network of mesh potatoes to form a peer-to-peer network to relay telephone calls without landlines or cell phone tow...
متن کاملEnhancement of VoIP over IEEE 802.11 WLANs by Adapting Transmitting Interval
VoIP over wireless local area network (WLAN) is an important application of WLAN and gaining more and more attention recently. In this paper, we analyze the maximum number of VoIP calls in WLAN and propose a new call admission control strategy, namely, adaptive transmitting interval call admission control (ATICAC) to enhance VoIP calls in 802.11 WLANs. In ATICAC strategy, Base Station (BS) adap...
متن کاملAnalytical models for capacity estimation of IEEE 802.11 WLANs using DCF for internet applications
We provide analytical models for capacity evaluation of an infrastructure IEEE 802.11 based network carrying TCP controlled file downloads or full-duplex packet telephone calls. In each case the analytical models utilize the attempt probabilities from a well known fixed-point based saturation analysis. For TCP controlled file downloads, following Bruno et al. (In Networking ’04, LNCS 2042, pp. ...
