Vmux-210 Ver. 1.1 Functional Description 1-15
The actual bandwidth utilization is determined by the following factors:
• Header sizes:
Ethernet – 18 bytes
IP – 20 bytes
UDP – 8 bytes
TDMoIP – 4 bytes
VLAN (if exists) – 4 bytes.
• Size of the voice packet:
G.723 – 31 bytes (AAL2 header [3 bytes] + voice header [4 bytes] +
compressed voice payload [24 bytes])
G.729 – 17 bytes (AAL2 header [3 bytes] + voice header [4 bytes] +
compressed voice payload [10 bytes])
G.711 – 47 bytes (AAL2 header [3 bytes] + voice header [4 bytes] +
compressed voice payload [40 bytes]).
• Packet interval:
G.723.1 – 30 m
Sec
G.729 – 10 m
Sec
G.711 – 5 m
Sec.
• Number of timeslots in a bundle
• Silence percentage. Studies show that an average person speaks only 40% of
the time during a telephone conversation. 50% of the time is spent listening
to the other party, while the remaining 10% is spent quietly contemplating.
• Connectivity packets – 64 bytes per minute.
Calculating Approximate Bandwidth Utilization (TDMoIP):
Let us calculate an approximate bandwidth for 30 timeslots in one bundle with
G.723.1 compression, 60 % of silence:
[(50 x 1000/40) + (30 x 31 x 1000/30 x 0.4)] x 8
1000
+ 0.00853 = 109.208 kbps
}{
where:
• 50 – size of Ethernet, IP, UDP, TDMoIP headers
• 1000/40 – packet per seconds (pps) transmission rate, calculated according
to the packetizing interval chosen (40 m
Sec in this example)
• 30 – number of timeslots
• 31 – size of the compressed G.723 packet plus AAL2 header and voice
payload
• 0.4 – 60% of silence
• 8 – conversion from bytes to bits
