 TFO & TrFO

Concept
TFO: Tandem Free Operation: negotiate rate through
in-band signal, insert a transcoder to support speech
between two ends with different codec or voice rates.
TrFO: Transcoder Free Operation: through out-band
signal negotiation, it realizes calls that have no
transcoders involved in the connection between the
source codecs
Advantage of TrFO
Improve the quality of speech
