The Use of Voice Compression through the PSTN
Because of the extensive delay already experienced when calling cellular and
international networks, some of which is already caused by their use of voice
compression technologies. Telecom Access Standards will only approve
G711 voice technology for use on the PSTN. G711 is an 'instantaneous
speech-encoding technique' whereas G729 and all its variants are considered
'near instantaneous' introducing additional delay into the speech signal.
Echo cancellation
Echo cancellers are not normally required in the Telecom PSTN because
geographic delays are acceptable where CPE return loss is maintained within
Telepermit limits. However, those private networks making use of
Voice-over-IP (VoIP) technology are required to provide echo cancellation
for all voice calls. The combined effect of audio/VoIP conversion delay and
IP routing delay can cause the echo cancellation time of 64 mS to be required.
