1Foreword


Speech quality tests on VoIP implementations, IP gateways and IP terminals have been carried out in the framework of the 5th ETSI Speech Quality Test Events (SQTE). The 5th SQTE is organized by ETSI PlugtestsTM. These tests are single vendor tests and not interoperability tests between different manufacturers. HEAD acoustics as test lab for these SQTEs performed the speech quality tests on VoIP Gateways and IP Phones.

The manufactures participating in this event results were provided with individual test reports for the tested implementations. This report provides a summary and a comprehensive overview about the speech quality test results from the 5th SQTE. The tested implementations are made anonymous, the participating companies can identify their implementations based on the individual reports.

The speech quality tests cover all conversational aspects like one-way transmission scenarios (listening speech quality), echo and double talk performance tests as well as quality test in the presence of background noise. “Real life” scenarios, e.g. background noise and conversational situations including double talk pay an important role for network echo cancellers in IP gateways and acoustics echo canceller in IP phones,

Chapter 2 provides an overview over all tested implementations based on a “Quality Pie” representation. Information about test signals and analysis methods are given in chapter 3. The main focus is to provide background information on the speech quality tests applied during the 5th ETSI SQTE emphasizing especially the new analysis methods compared to the previous events. Furthermore the test conditions are introduced here. The more detailed analysis of individual implementations is given in chapter 4 for IP gateways and in chapter 5 for IP phones.
