H.323 Extended for Loosely Coupled Conferences - Series H: Audiovisual and Multimedia Systems - Infrastructure of Audiovisual Services - Systems and Terminal Equipment for Audiovisual Services Study Group 16; 26 pp
This Recommendation covers highly scalable conferencing on packet-based networks involving hundreds and thousands of participants. This type of conference is defined in Recommendation H.323 as broadcast and broadcast-panel conferences. This Recommendation is based on Recommendation H.323, thus providing interoperability with circuit-switched endpoints (H.320, H.321, H.324) via Gateways as shown in Figure 1. Use of data, as opposed to real-time streams like audio and video, is for further study.
