15.2

D.
16

E.
24

Explanation:
The internet Low Bit Rate Codec (iLBC) is designed for narrow band speech and results in a
payload bit rate of 13.33 kbits per second for 30-millisecond (ms) frames and 15.20 kbits per
second for 20 ms frames. When the codec operates at block lengths of 20 ms, it produces 304 bits
per block, which is packetized as defined in RFC 3952. Similarly, for block lengths of 30 ms it
produces 400 bits per block, which is packetized as defined in RFC 3952.The iLBC has built-in

error correction functionality to provide better performance in networks with higher packet loss.
