[measure-voip] RE: VoIP Messungen

Hi!

My personal experience says G711, G729 and GSM with 20 ms of payload per
packet are the most used ones. This leads to IP packets (incl. IP header)
with the following size (xlite+sipura):
G711	20ms 200 Byte
G729	20ms 60 Byte
GSM	20ms 73 Byte

Microsoft Messenger uses for Messenger<->Messenger conversations the SIREN
Codec with 16kHz = very good quality :-)
SIREN	20ms 80 Byte

Other Codecs like ilbc and speex are sometimes supported, but I never saw an
application using them (without explicit forcing them)
Nevertheless, here are the details (tested with xlite):
iLBC	240	20/40ms	90 Bytes
speex	160	20ms		86 Bytes

xlite sends ilbc packets alternating every 20 and 40 ms - I don't know if
this is because of the codec or the implementation within xlite.

So, I suggest these Codecs as "must". Maybe bigger packets with a payload of
40ms might be interesting.


The number of packets depends on the simulated call duration - I'm sure
there will be some papers stating: 95% of calls are XX minutes long. I
suggest to simulate short calls (30, or 60 seconds) and maybe some long
calls, e.g. 15 minutes (to see more packet loss bursts).

regards
Klaus
