Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Nowadays service providers are focused in Next Generation Network, which is considered as a key on the future of telecommunication technologies. NGN network has a lot of advantageous compared with traditional telecommunication systems. This converged network allows the creation, deployment and management of all kinds of services. One of the main components of NGN network is softswitch which controls VOIP calls. Softswitch enables integration of different protocols inside NGN network. The main function of softswitch is to create network interfaces between signaling gateways and media gateways. In this paper we will describe in details the role of softswitch in NGN network, especially the role of softswitch in a simple call scenario in a concrete NGN network architecture which is implemented in Telecom of Kosova (TK).
