In this paper, a design of the reliable video-conference system using CTI(Computer Telephony Integration) technology is proposed. When video-conference is run on the current existing Internet, the transmission delay problem for voice data traffic can be frequently occurred. In order to transmit the real-time voice data through the Internet efficiently, some complicated algorithms such as CODEC(Code/Decode) should be applied. It can cause further excessive processing delay which can affect the overall performance. The voice traffic is usually transmitted through the reliable PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network) in the CTI system. In this paper a new architecture, in which PSTN for voice traffic and Internet for video traffic are used at the same time instead of using Internet by itself, is proposed to relieve the problems on a video conference.

음성 데이터를 IP기반의 패킷망을 통해 전송하는 기술인 VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) 기술은 음성 데이터를 기존의 PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network)망을 통해 전송하는 방식에 비해 비용 절감 등의 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 VoIP가 기존의 PSTN망을 대체하기 위해서는 QoS(Quality of Service)의 보장과 보안이 제공되어야 한다는 문제점을 가지고 있다. VoIP망에서 보안을 위해서는 사용자간에 전송되는 음성 데이터에 대한 보안과 초기의 세션 연결 시 사용자를 인증하는 과정이 고려되어져야 한다. 실질적인 대화 내용인 음성 데이터의 보안도 중요한 부분이지만 대화에 참여하는 사용자를 인증하는 과정이 선행되어야 한다. VoIP에서는 세션 연결 설정을 위해 H.323과 SIP를 사용하고 있으며, 최근에는 H.323에 비해 간단한 SIP가 주목을 받고 있다. RFC3261에서는 SIP를 이용해 세션 연결을 하는 과정에서 사용자를 인증하기 위한 몇 가지 인증 메커니즘을 제시하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 SIP를 이용하여 세션을 연결하는 과정에서 사용자의 인증을 위해 사용되는 인증 메커니즘 중 한 가지인 HTTP Digest Authentication의 취약점을 분석하고, 이를 보완하기 위한 새로운 인증 메커니즘을 제시한다.

Even though Internet phone service (IPS) continues to evolve in terms of quality and competitive pricing compared with the public switched telephone network (PSTN), the number of Internet phone subscribers is still low in South Korea. The Korean government decided to apply number portability to the IPS market in 2008. This study expresses its value in monetary terms with a contingent valuation approach. With this methodology, this study investigates the willingness of 316 current PSTN subscribers to pay for IPS, using a specific survey method called double-bounded dichotomous choices, to obtain more accurate data. The results show that the calculated value of Internet phone number portability positively impacts consumer welfare.

Since the advent of an information era, the traffic of communication has been remarkably increasing and the information service has gradually become speedy and popular. With these trends, it is necessary to extend the utilization of existing twist pair cables for PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network) to provide high speed data services for telephone subscribers, In this paper, we have studied on a structure of discrete multi-tone ADSL(Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Lines) system which can support high speed multimedia service using a twist pair cable, and analyzed the transmission performance by computer simulations.

With the widely applications of tactical radio networks, end-to-end secure speech communication in the heterogeneous network has become a very significant security issue. High-grade end-to-end speech security can be achieved using encryption algorithms at user ends. However, the use of encryption techniques results in a problem that encrypted speech data cannot be directly transmitted over heterogeneous tactical networks. That is, the decryption and re-encryption process must be fulfilled at the gateway between two different networks. In this paper, in order to solve this problem and to achieve optimal end-to-end speech security for heterogeneous tactical environments, we propose a novel mechanism for end-to-end secure speech transmission over ultra high frequency (UHF) and public switched telephone network (PSTN) and evaluate against the performance of conventional mechanism. Our proposed mechanism has advantages of no decryption and re-encryption at the gateway, no processing delay at the gateway, and good inter-operability over UHF and PSTN.

The evolution of telecommunications has raised the profile of many segments of the network that were not previously considered important. Until recently, basic telephony existed with the extension of passive cables without any particular user network interface. In the area of data communications, the introduction of flexible packet switching has allowed the network to evolve in a far more efficient manner. To overcome such separated network problems and business needs of both users and network providers, the integrated narrowband ISDN concept is being developed in most countries for implementation in the public switched telephone network (PSTN). The targets of ISDN, in my opinion, can be explained as follows : To the user, ISDN should provide the services at any time, at any place, through any media. To the business customer using PABX or LAN applications, ISDN should introduce customized services rapidly and also, ISDN should be developed by the modular hardware and software design approach in order for new services to be introduced rapidly and effectively. Software can be also developed by non-expert local staff to cater for adopting new user's service requirements immediately. Finally, ISDN will be able to increase business chances and benefit both users and operating companies.

There are many kinds of predominant modes to transfer Multimedia information on internet in the world. Various methods are applied to get real time multimedia data as possible as we need. At the moment it is very difficult to use acceptable technologies for performe those methods effectively on the Networks. This paper gives the alternative directions and trends for research and development of multimedia transmission on the internet. ATM is one of the best mode to transfer mass-multimedia data at the high speed on the Broad-Band ISDN until now. And xDSL (xDigital Subscriber Line) is an excellent typical method on the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) using old type telephone line. But they are not yet applied into the phase of practical use together this time. So this paper analyzes what we need and how to develop the multimedia transmission modes which we can send on the internet without a problem or any difficulty for our various multimedia information all the time under low cost and high speed.

ENUM(tElephon NUmbering Mapping) is protocol that brings convergence between PSTN Networks and IP Networks using a unique worldwide E.164 telephone number as an identifier between different communication infrastructure. The mechanism provides a bridge between two completely different environments with E.164 number; IP based application services used in PSTN networks, and PSTN based application services used in IP networks. We propose a new way to organize and handle ENUM Tier 2 name servers to improve performance at the name resolution process in ENUM based application service. We build an ENUM based network model when NAPTR(Naming Authority PoinTeR) resource record is registered and managed by area code at the initial registration step. ENUM promises convenience and flexibility to both PSTN and IP users, yet there is no evidence how much patience is required when users decide to use ENUM instead of non-ENUM based applications. We have estimated ENUM response time, and proved how to improve performance up to 3 times when resources are managed by the proposed mechanism. The proposition of this thesis favorably influences users and helps to establish the policy for Tier 2 name server management.

Recently the number of the elderly who live alone are increasing more and more as the average life span is prolonged. The elderly are probably in danger at home without being helped due to external aggressions or sudden health problems. Accordingly, more and more interests are taken in medical welfare for the healthy life of the seniors. In this paper, we have developed a mobility and vitality signal monitoring system based on ZigBee-PSTN gateway for the elderly. This combination of ZigBee wireless sensor network and PSTN can be easily established even in the poor internet infrastructure as is usually common for the elderly, with the advantage of providing non-constrained monitoring feature. The research result can be extended to the future tele-medicine system.

From now on, the network is being developed into PSTN(public switched telephone network) and PDN(public data network), that is depend on the form of data. The former one pursues sending voice, and the latter one pursues sending data. But it causes big loss of the economy and efficiency. So, ISDN, processing voice and data at same time, gives a big profit to user. To enlarge the ISDN at the narrow area, it is necessary that study to send the mixture form of voice and data in LAN environment. So, this paper proposes the algorithm about the mixture form of voice and data in ethernet and token-ring. that is widely used in these days.
