Taxonomy

Standards

Obligation: MANDATORY, Lifecycle: CURRENT

The following standards are required for audio coding in VTC.

Pulse code modulation (PCM) of voice frequencies (G.711:1988)
Low-complexity coding at 24 and 32 kbit/s for hands-free operation in systems with low frame loss (G.722.1:2005)
Low-complexity coding at 24 and 32 kbit/s for hands-free operation in systems with low frame loss (G.722.1 (2005) Corrigendum 1 (06/08):2008)

Obligation: CONDITIONAL, Lifecycle: CURRENT

Use of the BFCP is conditional to that VTC conferencing services are used with the shared content like presentations and/or screen sharing, whose control needs to be shared among participants.

The Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP) (RFC 4582:2006)

Obligation: MANDATORY, Lifecycle: CURRENT

The following standards are required for video coding in VTC.

Guidance

It Is recommended that dynamic port ranges are constrained to a limited and agreed number. This is an activity that needs to be performed at the mission planning stage. Different vendors have different limitations on fixed ports. However, common ground can always be found.

As a minimum G.722.1 is to be used. Others are exceptions and need to be agreed by the mission network’s administrative authority for video calls.
