End-to-end QoS for voice over 4G mobile networks

New International Telecommunication Union’s standard provides basis for high-quality Voice over LTE (Long-Term Evolution). A new ITU standard highlights the key factors influencing end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) for voice communications over 4G mobile networks. The standard will form the basis of future ITU standards on specific aspects of QoS for Voice over LTE (VoLTE) and Video-telephony over LTE (ViLTE).

The “End-to-end QoS for voice over 4G mobile networks” was developed by ITU’s standardization expert group for ‘performance, QoS and QoE’, ITU-T Study Group 12. ITU-T Study Group 12 develops international standards on performance, quality of service (QoS) and quality of experience (QoE). The group meets from 10th to 19th January 2017 in Geneva.
