R amp D QA and production testing of phones Voice Quality Testing PESQ Voice Quality Testing VQT utilizes PESQ Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality algorithm to assess the voice quality of telecom equipment and networks The PESQ algorithm defined in the ITU T P 862 recommendation models human perception of speech by comparing a reference speech signal with the degraded signal The reference signal is transmitted by the test instrument to the EUT Equipment Under Test and the degraded signal output by the EUT is measured by the test instrument The most important result is the ITU T P 862 PESQ MOS Mean Opinion Score because it directly expresses the voice quality The PESQ MOS ranges from 1 0 worst up to 4 5 best Additional results such as Delay and Delay Jitter G 107 rating R factor various waveforms level gain loudness SNR VAD Voice Activity Detection parameters Front End Clipping Hold Over Time and Drop outs are also provided Of particular interest is speech quality assessment and analysis of compression and VAD codec s such as those utilized in VoIP and wireless networks PESQ VQT can replace an array of lengthy traditional TIMS voice frequency measurements PESQ evolved from the need to automate the human listening tests as defined in ITU P 800 and has introduced improvements to the older PSQM PSQM and PAMS methods The VQT measurements can be perform
