G 729a
But people do like the voice quality bit rate combination afforded by g729 main body.
G 729a. As a hardware product with dedicated digital signal processors the digium tc400b can process up to 120 g729a streams and also supports the g7231 codec. G729a and g729b are indicated using annexbno or annexbyes respectively. In g729ab the parameters are the same as in g729a with the addition of voice activation detection vad in which the effective signal bandwidth is reduced when there is no audio input. G7291 is a wideband speed and audio coding algorithm which is interoperable with g729 g729a and g729b codecs.
The input and output contain 16 bit pulse code modulation pcm samples converted from or to 8 kbps compressed data. An embedded variable bit rate extension to g729. Whats the difference between g711 and g729. The codec complexity depends the router and ios and of course high complexity has a higher quality than medium.
G729 uses one dsp resource while g729a uses two high complexity refers to codecs using g729 medium complexity refers to codecs using g729a. G729a is interoperable with the g729 codec. The total algorithmic delay is 15 ms. An interoperable 8 32 kbits scalable wideband extension to g729 annex j describes an extension of itu t rec.
The tc400b is a pci card that offloads the transcoding burden from the host cpu. G729a is a reduced complexity conjugate structure algebraic code excited linear prediction cs acelp speech compression algorithm defined in itu t g729 annex a. The rtpmap parameter description for this payload type is g7298000. Many users also opt for the dtx making g729ab the most popular.
G729 for 8 32 kbits scalable wideband speech and audio coding algorithm interoperable with g729 and its annexes a and b. As a result many users opt for g729a which yields almost the same voice quality as g729 at the same bit rate of 8 kbps but at around half the complexity. Features of g729 g729a g729ab vocoder compresses 8 khz codec or linear audio data to 8 kbps. G729 is considered to offer a good level of call quality at a low bit rate of 8kbps kilobits per second which would mean that you would be able to get more calls through your bandwidth that if you were to use the g711 codec.
G729 is assigned the static payload type 18 for rtp by iana. Both are voice coding systems used in voice communication and standardized by itu t.
