TSTP
TSTP refers to the Telephony Service/Signal Transport Protocol. It is a protocol used in telecommunications to carry real-time voice and video traffic over packet-switched networks, such as the internet. TSTP is designed to be efficient and reliable, ensuring that multimedia communications are delivered with low latency and minimal jitter. It often works in conjunction with other protocols, like RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) for media streaming and RTCP (RTP Control Protocol) for quality control. The primary goal of TSTP is to provide a robust transport layer for conversational services. It addresses challenges like packet loss and network congestion to maintain call quality. The development of TSTP aimed to standardize the transport of these services, facilitating interoperability between different telecommunications equipment and systems. Its implementation is crucial for Voice over IP (VoIP) and other real-time communication applications, enabling seamless and high-quality voice and video interactions across networks.
