TMCNet: RADVISION Granted Mobile Video Telephony Patent

[December 18, 2008]

RADVISION Granted Mobile Video Telephony Patent

TEL AVIV, Israel --(Business Wire)--

RADVISION® Ltd. (Nasdaq: RVSN), a leading provider of video network infrastructure and developer tools for unified visual communications over IP, 3G, and emerging next-generation IMS networks, today announced it has been granted a U.S. patent, numbered 7464167, for reducing 3G video call connect time to under one second.

Until approximately two years ago, it took 7 to 15 seconds to connect a 3G call and start sending video. This time delay is considered far too long for a commercially viable service. Recently, an extension to the 3G-324M protocol (annex K) was ratified by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and the 3GPP to reduce call setup time.

This extension, known as MONA, was defined by RADVISION and other industry players. The MONA specification is designed around a set of three different techniques, which may be used during call setup procedures to shorten the time necessary to setup a video call.

"Until now, the widespread adoption of 3G video telephony has been hampered by the time it takes to set up calls between devices," said Avishai Sharlin, General Manager, TBU, at RADVISION. "With the innovation added by MONA, call setup times can be reduced to below a second, significantly improving the quality of experience to the end user."

"RADVISION is committed to facilitating the proliferation of multimedia communications through IP technology and solutions," said Mr. Sharlin, adding that, "RADVISION's IP will be made available to entities at reasonable and non discriminatory licensing terms."

  • Seven Best Practices for Speech Analytics: Speech analytics is valuable for identifying issues in the contact center. However, limiting its use to the contact center only considers a portion of all customer interactions and subsequently only reveals a small part of the voice of the customer. This paper discusses how organizations can optimize their Speech Analytics implementation strategy to realize the promise of this exciting technology.
  • Understanding the Voice of the Customer: Today's contact centers involve a sea of information that must be captured, processed, and distributed on a daily basis. Effective use of this information enables companies to remain competitive in an increasingly aggressive and customer centric marketplace. An overwhelming percentage of the information that circulates in a contact center's audio recordings, documents, web pages, and emails is unstructured in that it resides outside of a normal structured database and cannot be managed efficiently. These unstructured items contain valuable information, yet this information historically has been difficult to organize, categorize, and access.
