Appendix B Voice Quality Manager Introduction The Voice Quality Manager (VQM) is a software package that resides on the MC9190-G. VQM enables a set of features for Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) calls. The VQM user interface is designed to be intuitive and easy to use, so complex tasks such as enabling the Acoustic Echo Canceller (AEC) while a call is in progress, automatically switching audio modality for VoWiFi calls, setting appropriate audio gains for VoWiFi, are done with very little or no user intervention.
B-2 MC9190-G User Guide 4. Tap the filename to enable VQM. Audio Modes The MC75A can be in any one of the seven different audio modes. The mode is visually indicated by the VQM icon on the title bar. VQM icon Figure B-1 VQM Icon in Title Bar The VQM icon indicates that the device is in speakerphone mode without Acoustic Echo Cancellation (indicated by the gray VQM icon).
Voice Quality Manager B-3 The table below lists the current audio mode and the subsequent audio mode after tapping the VQM icon. Table B-2 Changing Audio Modes Audio Mode before Tapping VQM Icon Audio Mode after Tapping VQM Icon Speakerphone Handset Handset Speakerphone Wired headset Wired headset Bluetooth headset Reverts back to the last profile used before the Bluetooth connection. If the audio mode is set to speakerphone and the user taps the VQM icon, the audio mode changes to handset.
B-4 MC9190-G User Guide VQM detects if there is an ongoing Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) call, and if so, marks outgoing voice packets (Only outgoing voice packets can be marked. The incoming voice packets have already been through the network, so it makes no sense to mark them.) as high-priority using DSCP. This enables WMM-compatible wireless infrastructure to treat the voice packets preferentially. This results in fewer delays for voice packets, which in turn improves the call quality.
