Study on VoIP Service Quality Management

VoIP transmits voices over IP-based networks and it is the abbreviation of Voice over Internet Protocol. Recently, VoIP provides various services in addition to voices. Since VoIP services' provision is extending, VoIP service quality management is becoming an important issue. Therefore, in this paper, we study VoIP service quality management. We examine VoIP technology, service types, and network architecture. Then, we investigate key quality indicators(KQIs)/key performance indicators(KPIs) in terms of customers, not network service providers. Toward this, we also study the concept of general service quality management as well as the concept of telecommunication related service quality management. Moreover, we apply and R charts to show how to use statistical quality control techniques in real telecommunication companies with one KQI.
