In this book, the authors provide a treatment of the VoIPemergency calling process that is both comprehensive, looking atall aspects of emergency calling, and practical, providingtechnical details on how such functions can be implemented. Inaddition, the authors describe the standardization efforts of theInternet Engineering Task Force who are currently working toimprove the situation for VoIP emergency calls. The book providesan overview of emergency calling with a particular focus on theECRIT emergency calling architecture, and discusses considerationsrelated to implementation, deployment, and regulation ofnext-generation emergency calling. It also takes a look atpractical aspects of emergency calling, with a set of exercises tohelp the reader get familiar with the technologies involved.
Key Features:
* Comprehensive view of emerging standards for VoIP emergencycalling from an international perspective
* Practical guides for implementing the core of the emergencycalling architecture
* Architectural, practical, and regulatory perspectives
* Written by experts working on the development of emergencycalling architectures and its implementation
* Includes an accompanying website with open-source softwarepackages (http://www.voip-sos.net/)
This book will be an invaluable resource for product managersand developers, equipment vendors, network operators, emergencyservice providers, and telecommunications regulators. Industryprofessionals interested in standards compliance will also findthis book of interest.
