After highlighting the benefits and growing importance of VoIP, the text presents a review of the latest advances in speech and video compression, computer networking protocols, the assessment and monitoring of VoIP quality, and next generation network architectures for multimedia services. Numerous practical examples, complete with real trace data, illustrate and explain the concepts. The book also concludes with three case studies, each presenting easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions together with challenging hands-on exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTopics and features: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides illustrative worked examples and end-of-chapter problems, enabling readers to check their understanding and stretch their knowledge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamines speech and video compression techniques, together with speech and video compression standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribes the media transport protocols RTP and RTCP, as well as the VoIP signalling protocols SIP and SDP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses the concepts of VoIP quality of service and quality of experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReviews next-generation networks based on the IP multimedia subsystem and mobile VoIP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents case studies on building a VoIP system based on Asterisk, setting up a mobile VoIP system based on Open IMS and Android mobile, and analysing VoIP protocols and quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis teaching lab and classroom-tested textbook\/guide is ideal for final-year undergraduate and first-year postgraduate courses in computer science and electronic engineering.
