Video & Audio Streaming Concepts

Product : Linux.
Part involved : Streaming Server facilities.
Summary : Clears the way how this technology works.
Scenario : It is part of a free training program taught by COS-PERU.
Company : Open Source Center of Peru (COS-PERU).
Reference date : December 2007.

There are several services such as : radio and tv looking the way to change the broadcast of its signal information and opens the way to access them from internet selecting web browser since your computer. That is integration of Radio&Tv using ip technology.

Radio & TV have use the same requirements to build it and these ones are :

1.- Spread Server
2.- Broadcast Client (Life)
3.- Bandwidth assigned

The techniques used to transmit audio and data (video) is named "streaming". Then the Spread Server (1) managements and emits the streaming signal to www. About the quantity of simultaneous connections supported is called "concurrence" and can be calculated by how do you spend the concurrence resource of Spread Server. Then, next, we find a few samples of needs required for every type of broadcast.

Audio 24Kbps for every user connected
Video 100Kbps for every user connected

Buffer of the Spread Server.- Initially this parameter is considered to program and save space to concurrence concept, check next example :

- If my computer (1.-) has 1G RAM conifigured with 8K Buffer RAM, how many users can be attended ?

Remember that 1G= 1024K, then 1024/8= 128 users or concurrence top value.
The widthband (3.-) used by these concurrence connections then is calculated such as follow for :

Audio = 24 x 128 users = 3,072Kbps
Video = 100x 128 users = 12,800 Kbps
At this point, It's clear how many bandwidth will be used or How can I adjust this resource according to the available of bandwidth of my provider (ISP).

Related to the software used by Spread Server (1.-), we find next software free application to fullfill with this purpose : ShoutCast, IceCast, StreamCast, while these applications assigned carpets into server to every audio and video files to share and save information.

The Broadcast Client (2.-) converts the analog signal into digital signal through video capturer card (video broadcast case) while the client computer (user placed in office or home connected through www) needs to support multimedia basically since the applications WinAmp, Real Player, Windows Media to connect to (2.-).

There is a video example attached to show (2.-) under main title "YouTube Videos hosted by German Medina" at the right bottom of this page and select title "Video Streaming Concepts" for more information.

Part Involved : Panasonic D500
Summary: I gave a presentation about the basic concepts used in telephone systems
Scenario : The enviroment belongs to celebrate the anniversary of "Telecommunication Office of Maria Auxiliadora Hospital".
Company : Maria Auxiliadora Hospital of Peru (HMA).
Reference Date : October 2007.

At the right-down side of my blog, I have added an additional video about PBX founded in this visit "Panasonic D500 on HMA" and related about the presentation of the concepts taken were :

-E1 or Primary : It is a set of traffic channel grouped into the same physical connection, then there are 30 traffic channels and 2 signaling channel assocciated to this type of conecction. In the most of the cases the Telephone carrier provider install an end baloom containing the U-links connector into local client to establish the point connection to PBX with a 75 ohms (through the primary card). Every traffic channel is 64Kbps (like as signaling channel) but the process of compressed a traffic channel included in several PBX brands can modify the bandwidth of the traffic channel versus quality of the calling party.

-An introduction of extension technology used into PBX systems : analog, digital and IP handset phones; Analog extension can be swaped with telephone handset used into analog trunk conecctions, the bandwidth used is 64Kbps and it is possible set up a parallel conecctions to this terminal; related to digital extensions, these are closed linked to the brand of the PBX and signaling between them (PBX and extension) belong to propietary coding, anyway the additionally functions added to this type of terminal are placed to directors, Chiefs and supervisors into company, in this case is not possible to make parallel connections to this extension; about Ip extensions takes various concepts from digital extensions : Propietary addtional coding Protocols and suggest the importance of the structured cabling systems as main piece into implementation of this type of project, into PBX is inserted an Ethernet/Ip card to connect from PBX to structured cabling, the concept of mobility of the Ip extensions is introduced with this type of technology that should be balanced with others parameters such as QoS, domains of colissions, VLANs, degree of service, ratio compressed of traffic channel should be additional parameters to find the best performance with this type of communications established.

- The importance of calling management software in order to establish the scale of cost calling for every office and every trunk available installed into PBX , taking the way to clear what type of calling services are most used compared with others and fortify the weak devices connected or detect the failured devices that are not working properly with the capacity begun installed.

IEDS

Product : IEDS (Standard Identification of Health Data).
Part Involved : Catalogs introduced: "Places Building of Health" and "Producing units of Health Services" .
Summary : Looking to join data health information between all producing units of health of the country.
Scenario : Presentation of the catalogs is focusing to share and join all the health information and trace a method to search a "key health data" from the overall health institutions of the country.
Company : Minister of Health of Peru (MINSA).
Reference date : September 2007.

September 27, 2007 at “El Condado” Hotel was the presentation of the Catalogs “Places Building of Health” and “Producing Units of Health Services”, these ones belongs to IEDS, through the benefits of the IEDS I can highlight : (1) implementation of the only Clinical History concept into Health departament of the country, (2) Drives the process into health sector of the goverment, (3) Implementation of National DataBase of Health, (4) Insurances services, Bank would access to health information to take decisions, (5) A programming of buy pack into health sector for goverment.

The Catalog “Producing Units of Health Services” proposes a new structure of producing units linked to their respective cost center and set up a new identification coding to every specialist of medicine associated to every cost center, such as clear way to interconect data fields between institutions.
In Reference of “Places Building of Health” catalog, it has been programmed “The National Record of Places Building of Health (RENAES)”, through a web interface every Health Institution in the country should be filled information related to its own institution and later the update information process should be responsible to every institution (administration) while the system generates an own code identification appended a new record to IEDS database then query information can be accessed by internal and external users. The manager assigned in charge is “The General Direction of Health of people (DGSP) of MINSA.

About this topic, I can add that MINSA has advanced into the first step of e-goverment services because focused on next objectives : (1) Main Health Database available, (2) Global Access to Health information, (3) The value added of health services can be programmed from this point (move patients, stock of medicine, global of trace of clinical history of patients in the entire country and so on).

Auditing report of Minister of Transport and Communications of Peru (MTC)

Product : Auditing report.
Part involved : Minister of Transport and Communications of Peru (MTC).
Summary : Through this report MTC tryes to explain to peruavian citizens what happened when mobile phone communications and land phone communications crashed on August 15, 2007.
Scenario : That date our country was shaken by 2 consecutive earthquakes of 7.5º on Richter scale and after that the communication was lost upto 6 hours in main city (Lima) and several days near to the epicenter (Chincha and Ica -200 Kms south of Lima-).
Company : Owner.
Reference date : September 2007.

Today MTC has published the auditing report in http://www.mtc.gob.pe/portal/Informe%20Nº%20009-2007-MTC-29.pdf to achieve with next goals :

- To decide on capacity of Public Commute Branch Exchange.
- To decide if the capacity of traffic management system and the size of telecommunication networking are enough to attend the requirements of telephone communications of the suscribers.
- In the case of mobile phone service, look at the level of working of cells.
- An additional actions to be necessary.

While OSIPTEL has published two documents in : (1) http://200.89.2.171/Index.ASP?T=T&P=GCC%2FNOTICIAS%5FPUBLICACIONES%2FNOTAS%5FPRENSA%2FFILES%2FNP+Resultados+de+Comision+de+Alto+Nivel%2Epdf (2) http://200.8.92.171/Index.ASP?T=T&P=GCC%2FEL%5FSECTOR%2FNORMAS%5FOSIPTEL%2FFILES%2Fres%5FPD%2F2007%2Fres1232007PDOSIPTEL%5Finforme%2Epdf about the same subject.

The auditing report of MTC shows a delimited sections of every mobile phone operator. Next parameters are defined as : IC-TINE (attempt not connected), TTLI (callings fallen) and summary of them :

Nextel (Mobile phone carrier operator)
Cpu (qty) = 1
Cpu % = 67
IC-TINE = 3
TLLI = > 2
Subscribers= 390,000
Traffic Channels= 4,604
Users/Channel= 84.70

MoviStar (Mobile phone carrier operator)
Cpu (qty) = 6 MGW
Cpu % = 70
IC-TINE = 4.03 (April), 6.41 (May), 3.48 (June), 4.54 (July)
TLLI = (No information)
Subscribers= 7,637,504
Traffic Channels= 141,492
Users/Channel= 53.98

Claro (Mobile phone carrier operator)
Cpu (qty) = (No information)
Cpu % = 72 and 98
IC-TINE = (No information)
TLLI = (No information)
Subscribers= 4,521,412
Traffic Channels= 138,203
Users/Channel= 32.72

Telefónica (Land Line carrier operator)
Cpu (qty) = 5
Cpu % = 60
IC-TINE = (No information)
TLLI = (No information)
Subscribers= 2,340,000
Traffic Channels= (no information)
Users/Channel= (no information)

Telmex (Land Line carrier operator)
Cpu (qty) = (no information)
Cpu % = 43
IC-TINE = (No information)
TLLI = (No information)
Subscribers= 28,530
Traffic Channels= (no information)
Users/Channel= (no information)

In Claro's case the auditing report suggests an acceptable value of "Users/Channel" (32.72), while at the same time does not confirm the rest values indicated under the reference (no information) and clears the responsabilities between MTC and OSIPTEL (Telecommunication Supervisor Body) such as next table :

Duties of MTC
Supervision of implementation networking (first 12 months)
Fill goals of the spectrum.
Fill goals of secret of communications.

Duties of OSIPTEL
Check quality and efficiency in public telcommunications services.
Check the goals and obligation to expand services.
Check to fulfilling the contract as carrier operator.

In the auditing report of OSIPTEL, we can find :
-IC-TINE and TLLI superpassed 3% in MoviStar, Claro and Nextel since previous months ago to earthquake.
- It founded 807,900 callings lost at peak hour (it is an abuse!)
- Most of calling cases are GoS are 1%.

I am going to suppose that :
(a) The quantity of traffic channels busy in Lima reachs up to 70,476 (assumed only 55% from the overall) multiply by 300 minutes, and every one minute had a cost average of S/.050, then the big business for MoviStar was for that event (after earthquake) the profit of S/. 10'571,400 ( US$ American Dolar 3,410,129.00).
(b) But I am going to give to MoviStar the benefit of the doubt according to the previous paragraph : only the half of the overall traffic channels made (dial) the call becuase the other half received the call, then the profit is US$ 1,705,064.00).
(c) There is no any rule and local law to establish the maximum ratio and relation to the parameter "Users/Channel", that is, if the carrier operator exceeds that parameter then this one should be forbidden to sell additional mobile phones. -You want to sell more mobile phones then first build the networking wireless to use-.
(d) The end user at the time of buying a new mobile phone should be noticed about the available traffic channels and another networking resources offered by carrier operator.
(e) The advertisment on news paper, tv and others medias to sell mobile phones should be included additionals indicators of quality of services and availability of networking services, that can be access too, by links of www.
(f) The auditing reports does not confirm an absence of call service and that means, that was a super plus of calling service?, and what happened with suscribers did not connect never at that time?. Both auditing reports confirm deficiency of planning networking telecommunications and degraded of call service but at this point the main reason of typing the auditing report was to confirm what suscribers were feeling at that day ?, is not explained what was the main reason calling services crashed on August 15.

Lost Internet

Product : Linux.
Part involved : Squid.
Summary : Users can not access to internet.
Scenario : Troubleshooting internet service of end users .
Company : National Institute of Cancer Sickness of Peru (INEN).
Reference date : May 2005.

The main functionality of internet connection is based on "rcinetd" service running on Linux, then is possible to get up it swaping the states of that service, such as :

/etc/inetd.conf
rcinetd restart
cd /var/spool/mail
vdir
du -h
tail -f /var/log/mail
tail -f /var/log/httpd/access_log
tail -f /var/squid/logs/access.log
last more
vi /etc/passwd
bi /etc/shadow

And, after that, it persists a lost of internet service then try with ping command from your gateway to outside if there exists any other response, in negative answers check your connection with your ISP.

Part involved : Card SU VG.
Summary : Handing flash card.
Scenario : Updating welcome message of PBX.
Company : Minister of Health of Peru (MINSA).
Reference date : August 2007.

First the audio should be saved into wav format file, after that, the file is copy to flash card memory. Every flash card memory of 4M size memory has 210 seconds of time recording and into every message of welcome should be inserted one second of mute previously to recording and three seconds of mute after recording then the total time of recording should be calculated based on: previous (mute)+message of welcome+after (mute).

Through mgr menu connected by mtcl user to PBX and to adjust configuration of message of welcome then select : Automated Attendant / Application; the flash card memory can be inserted into SU VG card in hot ( is not need to turn off PBX or pull off SU VG card), I have attached a You Tube video to confirm this procedure (check "DISA Message"at the right side under title "You Tube videos hosted by German Medina")

Calculate Traffic Channels (3)

Product : Size of traffic channels needed into company.
Part involved : Implementation of practical use to calculate the quantity of traffic channels needed.
Summary : How much need to grow our infrastructure in land lines, mobile phone calls and another types of service callings ?
Scenario : Developing IT plans will be based on the growth of the future company needs and that includes how to calculate the quantity of traffic channels.
Company : Minister of Health of Peru (MINSA).
Reference date : October 2006.

The output format log information with the fields : Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Tch (quantity of traffic channels busy at that time) has the bulk.

If we want to locate the time with the most rush hour then proceed to sort that log (descending) by Tch field, ordered by Hour, Minute, Second. These records will show the quantity of traffic channels busy and the time when happened that, for analysis purpose is convenient to work with a range of records (as result of descending sort) to find the top need of trunking ports size. At this point is important to highlight that if we want to study the traffic channels need of certain type of call service termination (land lines termination, mobile phones termination, or another type) the filter would be activated previously selecting the range of phone numbers to identify the type of call service associated with the issue of our analysis before to run VBA Access script.

In the case of mobile phone termination calling party, the trunking ports needed will be replaced by the same quantity of mobile phones cards attached to PBX, as I show at next picture :

Every card means one traffic channel (with mobile phone termination) connected through PBX, in this example there are two traffic channel busy; check at the top of the cabinet where the set of antennas have magnet base, every one are coneccted to their respective mobile phone card.

Here is the back side of the mobile phone card : One port DB9 is used to connect through serial port to pc by hyperterminal to configure the device and one RJ11 port to connect to MDF cabinet of PBX. The picture shown below belongs to wavecom Q2426B.

This stage is focused to discuss what action should be take after our detailed record call party information has been storage, remember that the call party log belongs to the input data -with the fields: Date, Time, from Extension, Number called, Call party time (secs) - of our "magic box" and after finished the append process the size of the log can be grow up to decide to save that log information into some Access table following the same order and priority of the fields described.

According to the filter -what type of calling wants to study, selecting the capacity of traffic or planning to implement some type of service call can be grouped by the series number of the number called, ensure one type of service call as input- activated is possible to reduced the response of time.

Next script (VBA Access) (1) opens one counter for every second into a entire month, (2) takes a record information and extracts the time of the begin of the calling party and the length of the calling party, after that creates a list of seconds to fill in (1), (3) repeats step 2 until reach EOF in table, (4) write into rs2 table all the counters >0 with the next format : Day (date), Hour (time), Minute (time), Second (time), TCH (quantity of traffic channels busy at that time). The different levels of code nesting are colored.

The most type of PBX display reports with some profiles about detailed calling party processed into PBX, this information is the input that we need to generate into our own model of trunking size. Next lines is an example of this type of information :

2832 Ana M.León M OGP1 0609010125000:00:05 0.74 S 0' 4481949 N 0001001001001 40 0BA

When information is not formatted like than the upper lines then is necessary to start with preliminar delimited field information of every record in order to establish a standard input information with the purpose of create a main input call party file log, such as next lines :

"01/11/2006","00:01:00","2782","5519617",0 “ is the same to say
Date, Time, from Extension, Number called, Call party time (secs)

When the information is appended according to the last format is possible to filter the information with every field or the combination of these ones. Next script works under excel enviroment and can be executed to achieved this goal. Check that the differents levels of code nesting are separated with differents colors.

The exception is : only works up to office 2000, after that Microsoft inserted into office suite a security issue where it forbids a third party vendor use this plattaform as base to launch emails. The same restriction is applied when the interchange information between every office suite is used. But there is another type of executable file that handle client email functions that I will take in additionally topic. Next example works nice but up to Office 2000

And after review log information I found the confirmation of the ip assigned to Access Point (192.168.0.11) and comparing between 16:14:25.533321 and 16:14:31.043850 (6 seconds) there are 4,298 request executed by Access point through port 1900 to access internet causing a excessive broadcast into LAN, forcing to the rest of devices connected to LAN to wait pass this 6 seconds, this cycle -set of request petitions through port 1900-is repeating constantly and I identify that this process slows the conecction of all the devices into LAN. The default values of this type of equipment considers enable this feature then proceed with the next window to disabled that option and in consequence enhanced the speed of the connections into LAN when you are using this type of equipment. UPNP functionality is associated with por 1900.

Error to downloads e-mails

Product : Microsoft
Part involved : OutLook.
Summary : e-mails does not download successfully.
Scenario : POP3 server is outside of LAN
Company : Ministry of Health of Perú (MINSA).
Reference date : May 2007

First discard and ensure that the link with your ISP is solid and stable. This article only proceeds after you have checked your connection with outside. When the time out of the POP3 server is too long there is another chance to customize this parameter from the overview point of the client -do not modify anything in server configuration.-and it can reach changing the value of the parameter POP3TimeOut.

Load "regedit" and locate folder : Mi Pc\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\OutLook\OMI Account manager\Accounts\0000 and modify parameter POP3TimeOUT.

I am sure that if you have this type of problem the value of your POP3TimeOut is minimum -such as 10 or 20-updating with 90, the threshold of the window is resized to catch in.

LAN wireless

Product : Week of Engineer Electronic and Telecommunications.
Part involved : Network wireless by dLink.
Summary : Reinforce through wireless knowledge.
Scenario : Anniversary.
Company : Engineers Association of Perú (CIP).
Reference date : May 2007.

I saw most interesting this topic and the presentation was given by Carlos Cervantes -carloscg@vlc-peru.com Regional Training Manager of dLink- and the news become with the introduction of Dlink firewall to the peruvian market, the introduction of new standard super G, and the facility to control the Hand Off process called -roaming- managed by control wireless dLink. Here you will find a review of the available frecuency and where our solution can fit in.

In my humble opinion the organization of the event had several deficiency, first the scheduled did not start on time, and the presentation of the topics was related to put emphasis in advertisement of the product and not in developing technology, about the knowledges taken it did not surprised me because I knew about them, that was becuase I was waiting with a lot of expectation.

Take as reference, this type of meeting needs labs to testing technology and simulate situations -propose a implementation of solution and a set of installations as an example-, without this we are going to fall into the retoric speech of the politicians.

Saving the meeting I have attached at the end of the web page the procedure to crack wep of wireless network teached into this conference.

XCVRs of 9600 Frame

Product : Motorola.
Part involved : 9600 Frame.
Summary : Distribution of XCVR cards into 9600 Motorola cabinet.
Scenario : The analog cell site coverage area (AMPS , NAMPS) used this hardware to manage the outgoing and incoming calls.
Company : Motorola of Perú.
Reference date : December 1997.

The cards inserted from slots 1 to 72 are called XCVR (transceiver) and depends of the location -slot- where the XCVR will be inserted will define what type of funtion will be assigned to XCVR working into Motorola cabinet, then the type of XVR are : TCH (trafiic channel), SIG (signalization channel) and SCAN. The range of slots : 2-9, 13-21, 25-36, 38-48, 50-72 are assigned to TCH; 10-12, 22-24 are SIG; 1, 37, 49 are SCAN.

FORDWARD is the link established from the antenna of the Cell site to the mobile phone and REVERSE is the link established from the mobile phone to the antenna of the cell site. The origination of the call party is established on Reverse

SIG 10 : Carry out REVERSE of sector 3.
SIG 11 : Carry out REVERSE of sector 2.
SIG 12 : Carry out REVERSE of sector 1 and FORDWARD of all the Cell Site.
SIG 22 : Redundant of SIG 10.
SIG 23 : Redundant of SIG 11.
SIG 24 : Redundant of SIG 12.

The SCAN measures the power received from the mobile phone –as part of the process involved into REVERSE- then it is taking measure and samples of Handoff process (request HOMR – Handoff Measurement Request), then the current cell site asks to the SCANS of the neighborhood cell sites to compare how do they received the signal of that calling party –tiny, strong signal- and looking if the readings of the signal is inside of the values permited if this condition is fullfilled then the neighborhood cell site takes the control of the calling party and accepted the rest of rotuing connections established in the current call party.
