19、dization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form thespecialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in thedevelopment of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization

20、to deal withparticular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Otherinternational organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.In the field of information technology, ISO and

21、 IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. DraftInternational Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as anInternational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.Inter

22、national Standard ISO/IEC 13818-4 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information.ISO/IEC 13818 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology Generic

24、formance extensions for Digital Storage Media Command and Control (DSM-CC)The electronic file directory “bitstreams” forms an integral part of this part of ISO/IEC 13818.Annexes A to E of this part of ISO/IEC 13818 are for information only. ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 13818-4:1998(E)vIntroductionParts 1, 2 and

25、3 of ISO/IEC 13818 specify a multiplex structure and coded representations of audio-visual information. Parts 1,2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818 allow for large flexibility, achieving suitability of ISO/IEC 13818 for many different applications.The flexibility is obtained by including parameters in the bits

26、tream that define the characteristics of coded bitstreams.Examples are the audio sampling frequency, picture size, picture rate and bitrate parameters.This part of ISO/IEC 13818 specifies how tests can be designed to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet therequirements as specified in parts 1

27、, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818. These tests can be used for various purposes such as: manufacturers of encoders, and their customers, can use the tests to verify whether the encoder produces validbitstreams. manufacturers of decoders and their customers can use the tests to verify whether the decoder me

28、ets the requirementsspecified in parts 1, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818 for the claimed decoder capabilities.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/IEC ISO/IEC 13818-4:1998(E)1Information technology Generic coding of movingpictures and associated audio information Part 4:Conformance testing1 General1.1 ScopeThis par

29、t of ISO/IEC 13818 specifies how tests can be designed to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet requirementsspecified in parts 1, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818. In this part of ISO/IEC 13818, encoders are not addressed specifically. Anencoder may be said to be an ISO/IEC 13818 encoder if it generat

30、es bitstreams compliant with the syntactic and semanticbitstream requirements specified in parts 1, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818.Characteristics of coded bitstreams and decoders are defined for parts 1, 2 and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818. The characteristics of abitstream define the subset of the standard that is

31、 exploited in the bitstream. Examples are the applied values or range of thepicture size and bitrate parameters. Decoder characteristics define the properties and capabilities of the applied decodingprocess. An example of a property is the applied arithmetic accuracy. The capabilities of a decoder s

32、pecify which codedbitstreams the decoder can decode and reconstruct, by defining the subset of the standard that may be exploited in decodablebitstreams. A bitstream can be decoded by a decoder if the characteristics of the coded bitstream are within the subset of thestandard specified by the decode

33、r capabilities.Procedures are described for testing conformance of bitstreams and decoders to the requirements defined in parts 1, 2 and 3 ofISO/IEC 13818. Given the set of characteristics claimed, the requirements that must be met are fully determined by parts 1, 2and 3 of ISO/IEC 13818. This part

34、of ISO/IEC 13818 summarises the requirements, cross references them to characteristics,and defines how conformance with them can be tested. Guidelines are given on constructing tests to verify bitstream anddecoder conformance. This document gives guidelines on how to construct bitstream test suites

35、to check or verify decoderconformance. In addition, some test bitstreams implemented according to those guidelines are provided in the electronic filedirectory called “Test bitstreams”.1.2 Normative referencesThe following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitut
