1 A sends a SIP INVITE request to B. This message is an invitation for B to
participate in a SIP telephone call.
2 B sends a response indicating that the telephone is ringing.
3 B sends an OK response after the call is answered.
4 A then sends an ACK message to acknowledge that B has answered the call.
5 Now A and B exchange voice media (talk).
6 After talking, A hangs up and sends a BYE request.
7 B replies with an OK response confirming receipt of the BYE request and the call is
terminated.
Voice Coding
A codec (coder/decoder) codes analog voice signals into digital signals and
decodes the digital signals back into analog voice signals. The ZyXEL Device
supports the following codecs.
• G.711 is a Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) waveform codec. PCM measures analog
signal amplitudes at regular time intervals and converts them into digital
samples. G.711 provides very good sound quality but requires 64 kbps of
bandwidth.
• G.726 is an Adaptive Differential PCM (ADPCM) waveform codec that uses a
lower bitrate than standard PCM conversion. ADPCM converts analog audio into
digital signals based on the difference between each audio sample and a
prediction based on previous samples. The more similar the audio sample is to
the prediction, the less space needed to describe it. G.726 operates at 16, 24,
32 or 40 kbps.
• G.729 is an Analysis-by-Synthesis (AbS) hybrid waveform codec that uses a
filter based on information about how the human vocal tract produces sounds.
G.729 provides good sound quality and reduces the required bandwidth to 8
kbps.
