US Patent:

8233393, Jul 31, 2012

Filed:

Aug 8, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/188355

Inventors:

Dean David Beightol - Superior CO, US
Paul R. Michaelis - Louisville CO, US

Assignee:

Avaya Inc. - Basking Ridge NJ

International Classification:

H04J 1/16

US Classification:

370235, 370352, 714748

Abstract:

The VoIP quality speech process is activated when a subscriber accesses a speech quality sensitive resource or in response to an activation of the feature by the subscriber, or when it is determined that the originating subscriber terminal device requires the transmission of high quality speech signals. A transmit buffer, associated with the port circuit that serves the originating device, stores a predetermined number of packets as they are transmitted from the originating device. In the case of lost or damaged packets, the VoIP quality speech system activates the transmit buffer to retransmit the missing or damaged packet to the destination device. Intelligent buffer management is provided, where the destination device can regulate the size of the transmit buffer as well as the size of its jitter buffer.
