EXPERTISE & PREVIOUS ENGAGEMENTS

Voice Over IP Protocols
Sigpro has extensive experience in H.323, SIP, and SCCP protocols for VoIP as well as their DSP elements such as audio codecs (G.711, G.723.1, G.726, G.728, G.729), fax over IP protocols (T.38), echo cancellation (G.165 & 168), comfort noise generation, and voice activity detection.

VoIP System Architectures:
Architectural designs from Sigpro have been employed by a number of VoIP equipment manufacturers and service providers. These include:

  • Terminal device manufacturers seeking to expand product lines from PSTN and PBX solutions to IP-based telephony for the enterprise and residential markets
  • Long-distance carriers seeking toll-bypass communication
  • Unified messaging providers requiring centralized consumer products (voice, text, email, fax) within a single IP network base
  • Cellular equipment providers requiring gateways to convert mobile wireless signaling protocols to those that are compatible with VoIP standards

Set-Top Box Telephony & Converged Media:   Early in its history, Sigpro developed a series of H.323-compliant voice codecs to support a video teleconferencing reference design for a premier computer manufacturer. This work also included architecting a DSP-based MPEG decoder. The CPU-optimized codecs were designed for use in web-based servers, with low-power versions of these systems targeted for the "web phone" market.

More recently, Sigpro has delivered telephony service enhancements for an industry-leading set-top box manufacturer. As a member of the engineering design team, Sigpro defined the product roadmap to roll out POTS-based devices, and later full VoIP services. Our design team's contribution spanned from conceptual design to product implementation, including product lifecycle plan, systems architecture, prototype development, testing and validation.
