Title
A Comparative Study On The Quality Of Narrow-Band And Wide-Band Amr Volte Calls
Abstract
This work performs a comparative analysis of the end-to-end quality guaranteed by Voice over LTE (VoLTE), examining several millions of VoLTE calls that employ two popular speech audio codecs, namely, Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) and Adaptive Multi-Rate Wide Band (AMR-WB). To assess call quality, VQmon (R), an enhanced version of the standardized E-Model, is utilized. The study reveals to what extent AMR-WB based calls are more robust against network impairments than their narrowband counterparts; it further shows that the dependence of call quality on the packet loss rate is approximately exponential for both types of codec.
