Abstract: The traditional telecommunication system (e.g. landline telephone system) are increasingly being replaced by Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) systems because of the very low or free rate. However, one of the main handicaps of VoIP adoption is the inefficient bandwidth exploitation issue. A key approach to handle this issue is packet multiplexing. This article proposes a new VoIP packet payload compression method that enhances bandwidth exploitation over Internet Telephony Transport Protocol (ITTP) protocol. The proposed method is called payload shrinking over ITTP (ITTP-PS). As the name implies, the proposed ITTP-PS method shrinks the VoIP packet payload based on a certain mechanism. The ITTP-PS method has two entities, namely, sender ITTP-PS (S-ITTP-PS) and receiver ITTP-PS (R-ITTP-PS). The main function of the S-ITTP-PS entity is to shrink the VoIP packet payload, while the main function of the R-ITTP-PS entity is restoring the VoIP packet payload to its normal size. To perform the R-ITTP-PS entity function, the ITTP-PS method will reemploy the flag bits in the IP protocol header. The ITTP-PS method has been implemented and compared with traditional ITTP protocol without shrinking the VoIP packet payload. The comparison based on the VoIP packet payload shrinking ratio and isochronous calls capacity improvement ratio. The result showed that the VoIP packet payload shrinking ratio has enhanced by up to around 20%, while the isochronous calls capacity improvement ratio has enhanced by up to around 9.5%. Therefore, enhancing the VoIP bandwidth exploitation over ITTP protocol.
