Chapter 2: How Skype works

Skype is a free voip application that allows you to text, voice and video friends and family anywhere around the world. Skype enables you to speak, see and instant message other people who are also on Skype.

Voip means voice over internet protocol. In layman terms it means using audio and video through the internet web interface on a computer or mobile smart phone. Voip does not work without the internet.

With voip technology, we can send and receive text, images, high quality stereo sound and live video through data packets.

Receivers such as specialized hardware appliances like smart phones to software applications installed on other mobile terminals and computers are an integral part of voip. All these devices must be able to send and receive data packets via an iPv4 network.

All transfers are captured and encoded from analog to digital then passed to a compressor before transfer of compressed data packets over a slow connection. These data packets are stamped with the destination address and sent through the network. Voip was never engineered for live conversations and as such is prone to stutter and latency.

The receiver must reconstruct the data packets sequentially for ideal reproduction. Latency and data loss can cause the reconstruction to be incomplete due to congestion during peak hours. That is why there are sometimes blanks in audio streams and video stutters from frame to frame.

Eventhough voip is more versatile than traditional PSTN communications, it has been criticized as being unreliable, especially where power is unstable or intermittent. Most people still keep landlines for emergency situations where analog phones can operate without power.

Where broadband conection and power are available at all times, voip technology provides a cheap and comprehensive way to communicate. Many voip service providers offer free calls within their user base of internet clients.
