Abstract
This paper proposes silence drop first(SDF) active buffer management algorithm to increase the voice capacity when silence suppression is used. This algorithm finds and drops silence packet rather than voice packet in the queue for resolving buffer overflow of queue. Simulations with voice codec of G.729A and G.711 are performed. By using proposed SDF algorithm, the voice capacity is increased by 84.21% with G.729A and 38.46% with G.711. Further more, SDF algorithm reduces the required link capacity and loosens the silence packet inter-arrival time limit to provide target voice quality compared with that of conventional algorithms.
