GIPS' Vice President of Engineering, Dr. Jan Linden will lead a key
presentation that will provide an in-depth analysis on the expanding HD codec
space and how to navigate the minefield of choices and the factors that
differentiate the quality of HD voice. 

The conference, produced by VoIP pioneer Jeff Pulver, is being held at New
World Stages in New York City.  "HD voice holds great promise as the future
for VoIP," said Jeff Pulver.  "Global IP Solutions (GIPS) is a pioneer in the
VoIP space and we're pleased to see them contribute to the summit as we bring
GIPS and other VoIP luminaries together to bring forward the vision of high
definition VoIP." 

"We're excited to be part of this important event, which will shed light on
the opportunities associated with widely deploying HD voice over IP networks,
from enterprise telephone lines, PCs, home phones and mobile devices," said 
Jan Linden. "Wideband codecs are an integral part of providing HD voice but
the inherent problem of packet loss, jitter and echo on IP networks also needs
to be resolved to successfully enable HD voice. Resolving all these issues in
addition to selecting the appropriate wideband codecs will enable carriers,
mobile phone manufacturers and application developers to deliver an HD voice
experience that brings tangible economic benefits to them and their
customers."
