The quality of voice traffic over IP networks (VoIP) is greatly reduced due to the fact that packets in IP networks suffer from packet loss which is inevitable due to the best-effort nature of these networks. Many techniques have been proposed to decrease the effect of packet loss on the speech quality. In this paper we study the effect of packet loss on speech quality; we propose sending a duplicate copy of the speech stream over the network and we study the effect on the speech quality due to this duplication. This is especially useful in networks with extra available bandwidth. The performance of the system is measured according to the E-Model as defined in the ITU-T's Recommendation G.107. The speech sources used during the experiments are artificial voices obtained from the ITU-T Recommendation P.50/Appendix I. The results of the proposed scheme suggest improvement in the system performance in terms of speech quality which can then be translated into greater percentage of users satisfied with the service and greater potential revenue. The proposed technique proves to be more effective when situations of higher percentages of packet loss and burst losses rise.","PeriodicalId":432382,"journal":{"name":"2010 7th International Multi- Conference on Systems, Signals and Devices","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133062140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The quality of CNT films is important thereby as well as for many related applications. In this paper relevant processing factors such as the sonication time and concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) are investigated to characterize their influences on electrical properties of the produced CNT films. The results show that sonication time plays an important role for the quality of CNT films. A longer sonication time realizes better homogeneity of the CNT films, lower resistance values and higher reproducibility of the specimens. SWCNT and MWCNT specimens were manufactured and measured for strain sensing. MWCNT specimens show a better sensing property than SWCNT specimens with an applied strain up to 1%. Two strain sensing regions for MWCNT films can be clearly recognized possibly due to the different response characteristics of contact resistance and tube resistance to external loading. As the strain is smaller than 0.1% the sensitivity of the MWCNT films is low, about 2.5. For the strain from 0.1% to 1% the sensitivity is about 5 and the sensing property is reproducibility. Results of SWCNT films are much complex compared to MWCNT films. For the strain smaller than 0.2% the resistance variation curves and the sensitivities of SWCNT films are similar to those of MWCNT films. The sensitivities decrease however for the strain from 0.2% to 0.3% and change dramatically and irreproducibility for the strain from 0.5% to 1%.","PeriodicalId":432382,"journal":{"name":"2010 7th International Multi- Conference on Systems, Signals and Devices","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127415627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
