  1. Audio/Video Network Convergence with High Capacity Systems Voice & Video Engine for Mass Distribution Amir Zmora VP Business Development Surf Communication Solutions

  2. Presentation Agenda • Surf Overview • The Market -- and the Technology that Drives the Trends • Triple-Play Development Considerations • Hardware Trends

  3. Surf provides Hardware and Software that enable… Surf Overview large-scale propagation of voice & video applications large-scale propagation of voice & video applications

  4. Surf is the ONLY company in the world that offers Triple-Play (Voice, Video, Data) media processing technology simultaneously on a single platform; Uniqueness Uniqueness Surf is the first company ever to offer complete media processing solutions on an AMC platform, enabling the creation of a Voice and Video engine driving mass distribution of high-capacity applications Surf is the ONLY company in theworld capable of providing its solutionon ANYTI C-64x DSP VERY High Barrier To Entry

SIP Video Phone enabling Legacy Phone enabling Generation True convergence 3G-324M or WiFi Mobile Video Phone PC Soft Phone Tomorrow’s / Future Technology Supporting Infrastructure Users / Application Video Calls Carrier Infrastructure Video Conference Voice & Video Media Gateway Media Server IPTV Mobile Presence C-6x Content Streaming Security/ Surveillance

  10. Cellular – 3G Services (1) • Video Download & Streaming • Download is the most common method for video entertainment • Content saved on phone • Solves QoS issues • Streaming requires higher bandwidth but has also advantages: • More “real-time” • Easier in DRM perspective – content is not saved • Phone memory used only for buffering • Service examples • V-Live of NTT DoCoMo – Real-Time TV • Video on demand • Home/Business/Homeland security – Video surveillance

  11. Cellular – 3G Services (2) • Video Streaming – Circuit-Switched vs. IP • IP • Cost effective • Easier integration with broadband networks • Circuit-Switched • QoS is fixed and predictable • Well-defined mechanism for addressing and billing • Easy access: Dial number and use DTMF to choose clip • It works…

  12. Cellular – 3G Services (3) • Messaging & Presence • Evolution: IM  MMS  Video mail • PoC • Presence – Not only online/offline but if available for service X with person Y • Self created content;No DRM issues

  13. Cellular – 3G Services (4) • PoC – Half-duplex communication (Push-to-Talk, Show, View) • Implemented over IP using SIP • Many implementations are still proprietary • Video Telephony • A 3G service that uses 64Kbps for Control, Voice and Video – 3G-324M • Video: MPEG-4 • Audio: NB-AMR • Adopted by 3Gpp and 3GPP2 but deployed currently on W-CDMA networks only

  14. Cellular – 3G Services (5) • Video Telephony Issues • User adoption is still limited • Network affect will make it more popular in the future (need someone to call) • Quality is not high – 10FPS, QCIF • Call setup delay

  15. Cellular – 3G Services (6) • Video Sharing • Feature introduced by Nokia • While in voice circuit switch session, opens a parallel SIP session • Shares live video, clips, pictures • Effective bandwidth usage (IP vs. CS)

  16. SIP messages PS-Video Nokia Video Sharing Demo Ongoing CS-call User A User B Initiate sharing session User accepts invitation. Video sharing session is established. User A camera view displayed Select Share live video from options Pressing Start begins video sharing Pressing Stop ends sharing

  17. Conclusions • Voice price is shrinking • Infrastructure – Voice port price • Operators – Voice revenue (International/Long distance/Local) • Moving to one box solution for voice/video, Mobile/Wireless/Wireline - All in one - Siemens Wireline & Wireless merge (ICN+ICM=Com) • Moving into the video market is essential for telecom equipment manufacturers • Video deployment will dramatically grow due to: • Competition between service providers/operators/cables • Cross network services • Network effect

  18. Triple-Play Development Considerations

  19. Applications Host H.323 SIP PRI/ BRI CAS 3G-324M H.323 SIP H.223+H.245 (3G-324M) IP/ UDP TDM H.223/ H.221 • Fax Channel: • T.38 Fax relay • T.32 Fax termination • Transparent Fax over G.711 (IP) • IP-aware fax • V.34HD highspeed fax • RTP/RTCP: • RFC3550/3551 • RFC3016 (Video support) • RFC3267 (AMR support) • Adaptive Jitter buffer • Security – AES • Quality- RFC2198 • Telephony Events: • RFC2833 • All Tones det/gen from TDM and IP • VAD/CNG/PLC handling • Caller ID I/II det/gen • Video proc: • Transcoding • Resizing • Frame rate adapt • Mixing • Video coding & transcoding: • MPEG4 SP • H.263 • H.264 • MPEG-4 ASP • H.261 • H.263+/++ • Voice Coding: • G.729 • G.723.1 • G.726 • G.711 • NB-AMR • FR/EFR • EVRC • WB-AMR • G.728 • iLBC DSP • Voice proc: • Mixing • Sample rate adjustment • ECAN G.168 128ms Typical Media Gateway / Media Server Signaling Transport Media Processing

  20. Voice and Video on the Same DSP • Easy migration path to any video/voice usage model. • Lower system delay generates a higher overall quality • No need to separate voice from video and send each to a separate chip/module • Easier to establish lip-sync between voice and video when packets are lost or delayed • Lower operational expenses due to the need for support of only one chip. • Lower integration efforts • Single API for voice and video • No need for an aggregation device to combine or split voice and video

  21. The benefits of Running 3G-324M (H.223) on the DSP rather than on the Host ? • Lower delay generates higher overall quality gateways • Same DSP runs 3G-324M, voice transcoding, video transcoding and sends voice/video RTP directly to IP network, hence, no bottlenecks. • Scalability • When H.223 is running on the DSP, Host processor performance is not a limiting factor for moving to higher densities… just add more DSPs/boards. • Lower operational expenses • Less components in the system. No need for: • DSP board/module for voice transcoding • DSP board/module for video transcoding • Controller module/board for 3G-324M

  22. The benefits of building a Gateway rather than buying a closed box • Flexibility -The customer can determine what features to develop and can better differentiate his offerings. • Better response to the end user since no need to wait for the closed box developer to provide his service. • Open solution. • Price.

  23. Hardware Trends

  24. Relevant Hardware History • Once there were PC & cPCI systems… • Parallel passive backplanes • Then came cPCI 2.16, 2.17, 2.18… • Combination of parallel bus & multiple packet-switching serial busses • Then came ATCA (Advanced Telecom Computer Architecture)… • Packet-switching serial busses only • Late 2001 - Suppliers, OEMs and SPs define the AdvancedTCA (PICMG 3.0) • Late 2002 – Start work on AdvancedMC (PICMG AMC.0) • Late 2005 – First MicroTCA prototypes

  25. Hardware Forecasts • Varying forecasts for ATCA & AMC market size: • ATCA market to reach $3.7B by 2007 (RHK) • ATCA market to reach $42B by 2009 (Crystal Cube) • AMC market to reach $14B by 2009 (Crystal Cube) • Target cost per board to be reduced by 60% in four years, using ATCA (not proprietary) • Cheaper R&D • Open competition • Mass production • Maintenance • etc.

  26. Hardware History First PC 1981 cPCI introduced 1994 2001 cPCI 2.16 introduced First ATCA definition 2002 First AMC definition 2005 First ATCA prototypes First MicroTCA prototypes First AMC prototypes • Surf’s Current Offering: • PCI solutions • PTMC solutions • AMC solutions • cPCI integrated solutions
