An Improved Kademlia Protocol In a VoIP System

Abstract

Kademlia, which has been widely used in file sharing systems such as eMule and Overnet, concerns mainly on the resources and prefer to locate precisely the right peers despite of time consuming. We proposed an improved Kademlia protocol to adapt to VoIP systems meeting the need of real-time audio service and establishing a conversation in short delay. Beside, to provide an effective circuit switching we present timely backup channel for each peer to rescue interrupted conversation.
