Voice Communication Across the Internet: A Network Voice Terminal
نویسنده
چکیده
Voice conferencing has attracted interest as a useful and viable rst real-time application on the Internet. This report describes Nevot a network voice terminal meant to support multiple concurrent both two-party and multi-party conferences on top of a variety of transport protocols and using audio encodings o ering from vocoder to multi-channel CD quality. As it is to be used as an experimental tool, it o ers extensive con guration, trace and statistics options. The design is kept modular so that additional audio encodings, transport and real-time protocols as well as user interfaces can be added readily. In the rst part, the report describes the Xbased graphical user interface, the con guration and operation. The second part describes the individual components of Nevot and compares alternate implementations. An appendix covers the installation of Nevot.
