The new 3GPP codec for Enhanced Voice Services (EVS) offers important new features and improvements for low-delay real-time communication systems. Based on a novel, switched low-delay speech/audio codec, the EVS codec contains various advancements for better compression efficiency and higher quality for clean/noisy speech, mixed content and music, including support for wideband, super-wideband and full-band content. The EVS codec operates in a broad range of bitrates, is highly robust against packet loss and provides an AMR-WB compatible mode for compatibility with existing systems.
System aspects of the 3GPP evolution towards enhanced voice services Ericsson
The Enhanced Voice Services (EVS) codec was standardized by 3GPP in 2014. This codec offers significant gains in voice quality, efficiency, channel error robustness over any other existing speech codec and far better music quality.
As LTE networks start to mature across the world, more and more carriers are looking to introduce voice services on LTE networks using a technology called Voice over LTE (VoLTE). However, making sure the VoLTE user experience is as good as—or preferably better than—legacy 2G/3G voice services is very challenging.
This SlideShare presentation cover the following:
- How VoLTE is different from legacy wireless voice services
- The VoLTE user experience, and how to measure it
- Key elements of a successful test and verification strategy
Quality Across VoLTE and non-VoLTE NetworksAmir Zmora
When calls are between 2 devices on a VoLTE network quality is good as the network is built for voice calls. Problems start when calls are between VoLTE and other networks. In such cases there are typically quality issues due to the different charecteristics of the networks. The presentation explains the issues and the solution for this issue.

Radio over IP (RoIP) is a technology that has emerged over the last 10 years and has provided a powerful and flexible mechanism for linking radios and dispatch consoles. RoIP has some inherent limitations and numerous technical challenges. This workshop will provide an overview of the technology, the key standards and some of the technical issues.
The workshop will cover on the following issues:
- The difference between RoIP and VoIP — how radio systems differ from phone systems
- Implementing one-to-one connections
- Implementing many-to-many connections
- Risk management: identifying network issues affecting RoIP/VoIP quality, maintenance and redundancy
- Design elements: building blocks; calculating network bandwidth requirements
The implications of RoIP for dispatch consoles will be also be discussed: how dispatch console to radio connections can be implemented with RoIP and how RoIP can be used to provide fault-tolerant dispatch architectures.
Finally, the workshop will look at the impact of new technologies such as IPv6, wireless broadband and the switch to digital radio on the RoIP landscape.

Leveraging IMS for VoLTE and RCS Services in LTE Networks Presented by Adnan ...Radisys Corporation
ETSI Workshop – RCS VoLTE and Beyond
Kranj, Slovenia
October 11, 2012
Adnan Saleem discusses the advantages of moving to VoLTE/RCS for mixed mobile operators – and addresses the key challenges along the way.
This session will provide a quick review of the methodology of early dispatch systems connected to radio, telephone and other resources via circuit switched interfaces such as 4WE&M, 2W analogue etc., and their restricted backhaul capabilities, leading on to the 'stand-alone' RoIP boxes that allowed 4W E&M to be converted to IP and recovered at the other end allowing backhaul via more flexible IP networks.
The next technology is dispatch systems with native IP connectivity allowing the most flexible and functional interfaces between the dispatch system and its connected resources. While some manufacturers equipment uses proprietary IP messaging, most prefer and use open standards such as P25 CSSI (console sub system interface), DFSI (digital fixed system interface) and ISSI (inter sub system interface) or the emerging DMR AIS which ensures that different vendors equipment can interoperate with each other via these interfaces. Open standards provide end users with greatly improved competitive choice and functional capability on these systems.
The session will explore examples of IP interfaces for voice dispatch systems and the functions supported, plus give a background on how these apply to many different technologies and can even be adapted for conventional radio applications:

We live in the age of the digital packet. Documents, images, music, phone calls all get chopped up, propelled through networks, and reassembled at the other end according to Internet protocol. So why not TV? Today, IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is creating headlines all over the world. This mass publicity is the result of numerous instances and stories depicting its humble deployments and its future. IPTV is a very useful system, through which you can receive both TV and video signals along with other multimedia services by means of your Internet connection. In nutshell, it is nothing but a broadband connection and a system to deliver various programs of television using the Internet protocol (i.e., language) over computer networks. It is important to remember that IPTV is not like any ordinary television program broadcast through the Internet, but rather it is unique in itself. Its contour is represented by a closed, proprietary TV system which is similar to the cable services present today. But, in contrast, the delivery of IPTV is made via IP-based secure channels, which result in a sharp increase in content distribution control.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
