Reducing the Complexity of Sub-Band ADPCM Coding to Enable High-Quality Audio Streaming From Mobile Devices | 2009-09-29 | APTX |
| The number of consumer audio applications demanding high quality audio compression and communication across wireless networks continues to grow. Although the consumer is increasingly demanding higher audio quality, devices such as portable media players and wireless headsets also demand low computational complexity, low power dissipation and practical transmission bit-rates to help conserve battery life. This paper discusses research undertaken to lower the complexity of existing high-quality sub-band ADPCM coding schemes to better satisfy these conflicting criteria.

TANDBERG's Native Resolution: What It Does and Why It's the Clear Solution | 2009-06-18 | Tandberg |
| When the pioneers of videoconferencing were developing the first systems back in the mid 1980's, the proposition seemed easy enough: take existing television cameras and monitors and use them to enable a 2-way interactive conference. Right? Well, not so fast. The problem is videoconferencing becomes a powerful solution only if it can be used to call anywhere on the globe - and there are two major, incompatible standards to which video equipment are manufactured: NTSC (National Television System Committee) and PAL (Phase Alternation by Line). OK, there's also SECAM (Systeme Electronique Couleur Avec Memoire), but the resolution of SECAM is equal to that of PAL, and SECAM's popularity is fading. Incompatible standards means that the video from an NTSC camera cannot be displayed on a monitor designed for PAL and vice-versa.

TANDBERG AudioScience- Theory and Operation | 2009-06-18 | Tandberg |
| The TANDBERG AudioScience microphone is a ceiling microphone designed specifically for use in Videoteleconferencing and Distance Learning environments. It consists of a Crown PZMR microphone attached to a boundary specifically shaped to optimize the Frequency response, Polar response, and reach of the microphone assembly. Also, the combination of those parameters enhances the performance of some echo cancelers, and results in some "natural" automatic gain control functions.

The ISDN to IP Migration for Videoconferencing | 2009-06-17 | Tandberg |
| Since the release of IP-capable videoconferencing solutions in the mid-1990s, the percentage of video calls hosted over IP networks has continued to grow. In addition, virtually all video systems today include IP network capability, while only a limited percentage support ISDN. For some, the justification for migrating from ISDN to IP for videoconferencing was purely financial as it allowed companies to enjoy a pay-one-price cost structure for unlimited videoconferencing usage. For many others, however, it was the soft benefits of running videoconferencing over IP, such as enhanced reliability and manageability, tighter security, and an improved user experience that prompted the shift. This white paper provides insight into the pros and cons of the four most common network architectures in use today for videoconferencing.
