  • Page 51: Table 1-4 Echo Generation Delay Types

    1.4.2.1.2 Configuring for Optimal Hybrid Echo Cancellation The Packet Voice Processor applies an adaptive filter to the Long Haul and Tail circuits. A mathematical model of the anticipated echo is developed and subtracted from the actual reflected echo signal. The Packet Voice Processor effectively cancels echoes on circuits with Tail delays of up to 128ms and Echo Return Loss as severe as 0dB.
  • Page 52: Intelligent Packet Restoration (Ipr)

    With an increasing number of IP borders and multiple transcoding points across a network, providers must compensate for this loss in fidelity. Ditech’s Enhanced Voice Intelligibility (EVI) feature improves the quality of speech by boosting the critical speech formants within the audio to allow users to more easily understand the voice within the call.
  • Page 53: Quality Of Service

    EXi solutions analyze the voice quality measurement results performed by the Packet Voice Processor to detect failure patterns. For example, the Packet Voice Processor can review calls from an IP address to see if echo exists at this specific IP address, and can further help determine whether this problem is a configuration issue.
