VoIP Performance Improvement with Packet Aggregation over MANETs
Young‐Dong Kim · The Journal of the Korea institute of electronic communication sciences · 2010
In this paper, VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) transmission performance for MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Networks) is improved and analyzed with packet aggregation scheme which is aggregating some of short length packets to one large packet and sending to networks. VoIP simulator based on NS(Network Simulator)-2 is implemented and used to measure performance of VoIP traffic transmission. In this simulation, VoIP traffics are generated with parameters of some codes such as G.711, G.729A, GSM.AMR and iBLC. MOS(Mean Opinion Score), end-to-end network delay, packet loss rate and transmission bandwidth are measured. Performance improvements of 98% for MOS, 6.4times for end-to-end network delay, 32times for packet loss rate is shown as simulation results. On the other hand, transmission bandwidth is increased about maximum 10%. Finally, VoIP implementation guide for the performance with packet aggregation is suggested.
