Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to the communication technology, particularly relate to the method for selecting code conversion equipment in a kind of packet voice bearer network.
Background technology
At present, next generation network (NGN, Next Generation Network) receives the concern of operator day by day, its advantage mainly is: make networking become easier, operating cost is lower, for emerging communication common carrier brings the extra earning chance, helps operator's reinforcement and user's relation.NGN is not limited to fixed network, can also comprise mobile network etc.Professional packet bearer is one of topmost characteristics of NGN.
NGN can realize broadband multimedia services, but the NGN telephone service is still extremely important at present, and it is that NGN starts business.Existing telephone service terminal comprises conventional terminal, as fixedly ISDN (IntegratedServiced Digital Network) and analog telephone, GSM mobile handset, CDMA mobile phone etc., also comprise the wide-band terminal of supporting multimedia service, as H.323 terminal, SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) terminal, multimedia computer, mobile broadband terminal etc.
Different telephone service terminals is supported different voice encoding and decoding modes.Because the mobile network is than fixed network, its air interface bandwidth is limited, so the speech coding bandwidth of general portable terminal is less, as full-rate codes FR (13K), EFR coding EFR (12.2K) and the half rate encoded HR (5.6K) of present GSM network use, and the variable rate voice AMR coding of 3g mobile network use (4.75K～12.2K.).In the fixed terminal, some only supports traditional PCM voice, it is the G.711 coding of 64K, some then supports the compressed voice coding, comprise G.723.1 (5.3K or 6.3K), G.728 (16K), G.729 (8K), G.726/G.727 (16,24,32Kbps) etc., the bandwidth of these compressed encodings is much smaller than the G.711 coding of 64K.
When supporting the service terminal of different phonetic encoding and decoding to carry out speech communication, need to have the speech coding conversion equipment in the network, convert a side speech coding to speech coding that the opposing party supports, the speech communication of calling both sides is successfully carried out.
In legacy network, the position of speech coding conversion equipment is fixed basically, is positioned at TDM (time division multiplexing) network edge place.This is because traditional TDM circuit switched core network uses 64K G.711 to encode, so the coding outside generally will be G.711 all converts G.711 coding to, transmits in the TDM circuit switched core network then.For example: when H.323 block terminal and PSTN terminal were carried out audio call, G.711 the gateway device between packet network and the PSTN network H.323 compressed voice code conversion of terminal became to encode.
In NGN, the voice flow between code conversion equipment and call subscriber terminal or the called user terminal is carried as packet bearer, and packet bearer comprises ATM and IP dual mode, can carry the voice of various codings, and is not only G.711 to encode.If two terminals have the speech coding of common support, just do not need code conversion equipment so in the network; If the speech coding of two terminal supports is not simultaneously, then need to provide code conversion equipment in the network.
If a plurality of code conversion equipment are arranged in the network,, will influence the bandwidth of Network Transmission greatly to certain position of calling out selected code conversion equipment because the bandwidth of different speech coding is different.For example: when H.323 terminal and sip terminal carry out speech communication, because H.323 the G.723 speech coding of terminal support is far smaller than the G.711 coding of sip terminal, if select the close H.323 code conversion equipment of terminal one side to be placed on, than what select near sip terminal one side, the demand of packet network bandwidth is wanted high a lot.
In the prior art, to the choice of location of code conversion equipment in the NGN network, ununified standard.See also Fig. 1, a kind of prior art is the code conversion equipment of selecting near call subscriber terminal.Its idiographic flow comprises: (SS SoftSwitch) receives the call setup message that call subscriber terminal is initiated to the caller Softswitch, carries speech coding 1 in the described call setup message; Because the coding that called user terminal is supported is different with call subscriber terminal, called user terminal carries speech coding 2 in the call progress class message that called Softswitch sends; Called Softswitch uses speech coding 2 to the indication of caller Softswitch; The caller Softswitch is selected corresponding code conversion equipment near call subscriber terminal; In whole speech communication process, code conversion equipment is finished the encoding and decoding conversion function to the voice flow between call subscriber terminal and the called user terminal.
