The present document:
- identifies opportunities for optimization of service quality and efficiency of Multimedia telephony over IP in aqualitative sense;
- provides the basis for developing a set of optional backward-compatible tools implementing such optimizations.
The optimized multimedia telephony targets many different system configurations and operating conditions,e.g. GERAN, UTRAN, inter-working between GERAN, UTRAN, GAN, and different PLMNs. Of the various use casesfor multimedia telephony, the main focus of the present document is on voice calls, but the focus also includes othercore media components, such as video. In particular, areas with optimization opportunities include handling of degradedchannels, delay jitter, packet losses, efficiency, inter-working with other voice systems, etc.
The scope includes proposing solutions that maintain backward compatibility in order to ensure seamless inter-workingwith existing services available in the CS domain, such as CS voice telephony and 3G-324M, as well as with terminalsof earlier 3GPP releases. Alignment with legacy media formats avoids transcoding and even allows realizing at leastparts of the optimization gains. All optimizations are hence based on the default codecs specified in3GPP TS 26.235 [3] and 3GPP TS 26.141 [6].
The optimizations identified in the present document address mainly. media transport and signalling. Most of the SIPsignalling is out of scope and is handled by other 3GPP groups. Issues regarding registration to the network and/or toIMS at power-on or at other occurrences are not included either.
The optimization tools are not specified in the present document per se, but will be specified as amendments to existing(pre-Release 7) Technical Specifications (3GPP TS 26.235 [3] and 3GPP TS 26.236 [4]) and possibly new TechnicalSpecifications. Furthermore, a characterization of the optimized multimedia telephony over IMS will be available in aseparate Technical Report.
