Voice Services Options for the Battlespace Communications System (Land)

摘要

The current generation Battlespace Communications System (Land) for voice (telephony) is based on a military standard circuit switching technology. There has been considerable discussion on alternatives based on packetized voice (i.e. voice over Internet Protocol and voice over ATM). This paper examines these two options and considers the bandwidth demands of each option, specifically in the context of an agreed reference model of the network including traffic load. This report is preliminary work prior to the combination of this voice model with that of an agreed data workload and examination through simulation of consequent integrated network performance.
