G.729 A compression technique where voice is coded into 8 Kbps streams.
There are two variations of this standard (G.729 and G.729 Annex A)
that differ mainly in computational complexity; both provide speech
quality similar to 32-kbps ADPCM. Described in the ITU-T standard
in its G-series recommendations.
GPS Global Positioning System. A system that uses satellites, receivers
and software to allow users to determine their precise geographic
position.
H.323 A protocol suite defined by ITU-T for voice transmission over internet
(Voice over IP or VoIP). In addition to voice applications, H.323
provides mechanisms for video communication and data
collaboration, in combination with the ITU-T T.120 series standards.

IDU Indoor Unit
IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. IEEE (pronounced
I-triple-E) is an organization composed of engineers, scientists, and
students. The IEEE is best known for developing standards for the
computer and electronics industry. In particular, the IEEE 802
standards for local-area networks are widely followed.
IEEE 802.1p A QoS method - A three-bit value that can be placed inside an
802.1Q frame tag.
IEEE 802.16 Also known as WIMAX. A group of broadband wireless
communications standards for metropolitan area networks (MANs)
developed by a working group of the IEEE.
IEEE 802.16a An extension of IEEE 802.16. 802.16a operates in the 2-11GHz
frequency band over a theoretical maximum range of 31 miles with a
theoretical maximum data transfer rate of 70Mbps.
IEEE 802.1Q The IEEE 802.1Q standard defines the operation of VLAN Bridges
that permit the definition, operation and administration of Virtual
LAN topologies within a Bridged LAN infrastructure. The 802.1Q
specification establishes a standard method for inserting VLAN
membership information into Ethernet frames. A tag field containing
VLAN (and/or 802.1p priority) information can be inserted into an
Ethernet frame, carrying VLAN membership information.
