A scenario of voice services delivery over enterprise W/LAN networked platform

The converged communication applications unlock business value. The value grows with the convergence extension into new areas. These applications increase the speed and agility of the enterprises, management's ability to control operations. Moreover, they handle seamlessly voice, data, and multimedia across multiple wireline and wireless access technologies. Also, enterprises are now considering how to extend their networks by IP voice over WLANs. This process starts with an analysis of a network infrastructure, services and applications, including the potential for converged services, as well as the technology for the transition to future services. In this paper, we examine a network architecture that spans WLAN and LAN to facilitate a seamless delivery of voice services across an enterprise. We build service scenario framework for this architecture. And, we propose a mathematical model of the delivery framework in order to analyze network behavior as a response to the new services introducing.
