The Intel
functionalities for VoIP residential gateway applications. It can be viewed as a completed media pro-
cessing layer with control and data interfaces as its API.
This document defines the API specifications.
1.1

General

®
The Intel
eration IADs such as Consumer Premise Equipment (CPE), specifically, to perform audio encoding/
decoding, echo cancellation, tone processing and jitter control, etc., as required in any IP media gate-
way or real-time media streaming functionalities.
This document is intended to describe the control and data interfaces in order for a third party de-
veloper to incorporate the module into a media gateway or server system. It provides sufficient de-
tails of the interfaces so that the user can fully configure and control the operations and services.
It additionally describes the data interface and format as well as message and data delivery mecha-
nisms.
1.2

Scope

The interface of DSP software is a set of functions, macros, and message and packet formats that
determines how the applications access the media processing resource components.
