Codec This is why telephone channels are 64 kbps

Designed for digitized voiceCarrier often “steals” 8 kbps for

supervisory signaling, so 56 kbps

8,000 samples/second * 8 bits/sample = 64 kbps

64 kbps – 8 kbps = 56 kbps

32

Importance of Channel Reuse

Channels are Scarce Only ~800 in First Generation Cellular Systems

Only ~2,500 More for Second Generation Systems

You Can Only Have an Average of 20 Customers per Channel Assumes each will use the system 5% of the time

(generous)

Only 16,000 to 50,000 customers without channel reuse

33


Can Reuse Channel in Nonadjacent Cells In adjacent cells, signals will interfere

To tell how roughly how many times you can reuse a channel on average

Divide the number of cells by 7Rough estimate but very useful20 cells / 7 = 3 (Round off: It’s not exact)100 cells / 7 = 14

You can multiply the possible number of subscribers by this factor

34


Example 800 channels

20 cells

3 (20/7) channel reuse factors

2,400 effective channels (800 x 3)

20 subscribers/channel maximum for good service

48,000 maximum subscribers (2,400 x 20)

35


Example 2,400 channels 100 cells

Figure 6.14: Regulation and Deregulation

Regulation Carriers: carry signals between customer premises

Rights of Way: government permission to lay wire

Monopoly: Service was originally provided by a single telephone carrier

Regulation: This monopoly carrier was regulated to prevent abuse of the monopoly

Tariffs specify a service’s specific service parameters and pricing to prevent discrimination and guarantee service parameters

42

Figure 6.14: Regulation and Deregulation

Deregulation Initially, regulated protected monopoly service

Deregulation: remove protections & restrictions

To increase competition, lowering prices

Varies by country

Varies by service within countriesData, long-distance, and customer premises

deregulation is high.Local voice service deregulation is low.

43

Figure 6.15: Regulation and Carriers

Carriers Public Telephone and Telegraph (PTT) authority is

the traditional domestic monopoly carrier in most countries.

Domestic transmission: within a countryUK: British TelecomsJapan: NTT

44


Carriers In the United States

U.S. is divided into regions called local access and transport areas (LATAs)

About 200 LATAs nationwideSmall states have just one LATALarge states have 10 to 20 LATAs

Figure 6.16: Converged Services

Integrate Voice and Data Networks Often referred to as voice over IP (VoIP) and IP

telephony

51


Provide Voice and Data on a Single Network

Save money compared to traditional telephony Reducing staff and economies of scale in

purchasing with one network

Encoding voice to less than 64 kbps so fewer bits need to be sent

Packet switching to reduce transmission costs for bit sent

52


Other advantages Computer-telephony integration (CTI)

Provide integrated voice and data applications

E.g., when a customer calls, their information can be brought up on-screen

Implementation PBX-to-PBX connectivity is easy and saves money

on long-distance calls

LAN implementations are more difficult, less well-developed, and may not save money

55


Will Cost Savings be Realized? Convergence justified by gap between high long-

distance and international telephone charges and possible savings through IP telephony

Falling traditional telephone prices are reducing the gap

Packet transmission inefficiency is reducing the theoretical savings and therefore the gap

Does the remaining gap justify convergence?

Service Quality Availability (less than the PSTN’s 99.999%)

Sound qualitylatency produces pausesMillisecond-to-millisecond inconstancy of

speed produces jitter Sound quality is addressed by using a single ISP to

connect all sitesService Level Agreements (SLAs)

No Congestion in Site A-C CommunicationBecause All Traffic Passes through a Single ISP.

It Avoids the Congested Internet Backbone.

58

Voice/Data Cultural Concerns

Data Networking Concerns Will all this voice traffic mean that my data cannot

get through well?

Telephony Concerns Will people get the same level of voice quality?

Will they get secondary services (3-party calling, call waiting, etc.)
