摘要: The performance of a voice conference using packet-based bridge can be improved with number modifications. In one modification, the receives speech indication signals from individual terminals within conference, these then being used by to select talkers conference. This removes need for detection techniques bridge, hence decreasing required processing power and latency bridge. another sends addressing control selected as talkers, directing directly transmit their data packets other direct transmission reduce transcoding network. These two modifications could further combined, resulting in that signals, selects outputs signal talkers. this case, advantages are gained well additional capacity no actually traversing
