Abstract

Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has potential to be selected as a control plane signaling protocol for delivering real-time multimedia applications in military networks. It is necessary to study behaviors of SIP and SIP-based real-time applications as well as to understand their limitations in a tactical network envi-ronment. The goals of this study are to assess SIP signaling proto-col performance and SIP-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) performance in an emulated disadvantaged tactical edge network environment and to contribute some feasible solutions.
