19、Voltage-Controlled Crystal Oscillator CEA-CEB-20 3 4 Definitions Access Unit See definition in ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 Acquisition function A function that acquires a transport stream from a transmission network. This function may filter an acquired transport stream to produce a partial TS stream for stre

20、aming and/or recording. An acquisition function and a playback function may but need not reside within the same physical device. BSn The size of a specific buffer in the T-STD buffer model. See ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 Section 2.4.2. De-multiplexer A decoder operation that filters and separates the transpo

21、rt into constituent elementary streams. Decoding Time Stamp (DTS) Field which may be present in a PES header when it differs from the value of the PTS. See ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 Section 2.4.3.6. This indicates the precise instant when the Access Unit is to be decoded. This is sometimes called “decode ti

22、me.” Decoder The combination of operations which impose any delay from the instant when a transport stream is acquired to the instant when the constituent elementary streams within that transport stream are presented to the end users eyeballs and ears. Decoder operations generally include a de-multi

23、plexer (including System Time Clock (STC) recovery and TS packet filtering), buffers, an audio decoder and a video decoder. Decoder operations may also include processors that enhance presentation units after decode (e.g., de-interlacing) or prepare the transport stream for long term storage. Decode

24、r operations may be split across two devices whereby one device acquires the transport stream and sends it, or a portion of it, to another device for playback. Decoder Clock A physical instantiation of the STC in the decoder. Encoder Clock A physical instantiation of the STC in the encoder. Jitter T

25、he variance in arrival time of data (from perfectly uniform arrival) due to various factors, including the process of packetizing data (into transport stream packets, PES packets, etc), and variable network delivery rates (e.g., in IP networks). Also refers to variance (vs. ideal theoretical values)

26、 of PCR. PCR Discontinuity See System Time-Base Discontinuity. Presentation For video, it is the first instant when a video presentation unit begins to be displayed to the end users eyeballs. For audio, it is first instant when an audio presentation unit begins to be rendered to the end users ears.

27、Presentation Unit See definition in ISO/IEC 13818-11. Partial TS A SPTS or a partial SPTS. Playback function A function that plays back a transport stream. An acquisition function and a playback function may but need not reside within the same physical device. System Time-Base Time-Base An epoch of

28、system time encoded in a transport stream where audio and video presentation units and their respective sample clocks are synchronized to a single STC abstraction. In general, the beginning and end of an epoch are demarcated by a system time-base discontinuity. However, in a receiver, a time-base ch

29、ange may be initiated by an asynchronous channel change. Note that this term is used in ISO/IEC 13818-11, but not completely defined. System Time-Base Discontinuity A point within a transport stream where one (system) time-base ends and another (system) time-base begins. System Time Clock (STC) An a

30、bstract common system clock with an exactly specified ratio to the CEA-CEB-20 4audio and video sample clocks. The Decoder and Encoder Clocks are physical instantiations of the STC. Transport stream MPEG-2 transport stream 5 Overview MPEG Systems provides the mechanisms for presentation synchronizati

31、on, e.g., audio/video synchronization. There are several MPEG fields and concepts which are used in this endeavor, described below. Implementers should note that each of the details described in this Consumer Electronics Bulletin are vital to achieving robust synchronization. This bulletin is constr

32、ained to Transport Stream timing (i.e. not Program Stream timing). ISO/IEC 13818-1 describes the timing models in terms of the Transport Stream constructs. It carefully does not (normatively) discuss the Encoder Clock or the Decoder Clock. The System Time Clock (STC) is an abstract clock from which

33、various physical clocks are instantiated. It is important when reading ISO/IEC 13818-11 to remember that it defines only the Transport Stream (bitstream) properties. These obviously place practical constraints on both the Encoder Clock and Decoder Clock. But conformant encoder and decoders are not d

34、efined by ISO/IEC 13818-11. Digital television emission equipment produces audio and video elementary streams (compressed audio and video), and wraps them together into a MPEG-2 Transport Stream. The encoders maintain a nominal 27 MHz clock, the Encoder Clock. The transport stream includes several t

35、ime values: Program Clock Reference (PCR), Presentation Time Stamp (PTS), and Decoding Time Stamp (DTS), all of which are created by the encoder from the Encoder Clock. The PCR values are periodically inserted into the Transport Stream, and used by the decoder to reconstruct the STC in the form of t

36、he Decoder Clock. PTS and DTS indicate when presentation units (video pictures, audio frames) should be shown to the viewer and when to decode presentation units, respectively. PCRs are required by ISO/IEC 13818-11 to arrive at the receiver at intervals no larger than 100 ms. Successive PCR values a

37、nd their arrival times are used by the decoder to reconstruct the STC in the form of the Decoder Clock. The PTS and DTS refer to a specific presentation unit (see ISO/IEC 13818-1 2.4.3.61). In general, PTS (and DTS) are included in the bitstream at intervals not exceeding 700 ms. ATSC constrains PTS

38、 (or DTS) to be inserted with each coded picture. All video and audio streams included in a program make use of the PCR and maintain a clock so that synchronization of the video and audio decoders can be accomplished. Decoders should implement the procedures detailed in this Bulletin in order to pre

39、sent programming that is properly synchronized. This means decoders should continuously monitor and take action on all PCR and PTS timestamps received. CEA-CEB-20 5 6 Receiver Architecture Model Figure 1 Receiver Hardware Reference Model There are various components of a receiver which are necessary

40、 to constitute the Decoder Clock and adjust the display time of presentation units in order to achieve synchronized output. 6.1 Demultiplexer PCR Assist The demultiplexer (or similar hardware) should have the capability to capture and store in registers available to the CPU (1) the value of a PCR fo

41、und in an acquired transport stream, and (2) the value of the Decoder Clock counter at the time the PCR arrived. These values are used as input to the Decoder Clock. The demultiplexer (or similar hardware) should have the capability to immediately set the value of the local Decoder Clock counter wit

42、h the contents of a received PCR. 6.1.1 PCR Arrival Interrupt Generation The demultiplexer should have the capability to generate an Interrupt to the CPU when a PCR is found in the selected program of the acquired transport stream. 6.1.2 Last PCR register A register accessible to the CPU which conta

43、ins the value of the last PCR received. 6.1.3 Last Decoder Clock at last PCR register A register accessible to the CPU which contains the value of the Decoder Clock counter at the moment the last PCR was received. 6.2 Decoder Clock The Decoder Clock is embodied within this receiver model as a closed

44、 feedback loop consisting of three elements: (1) Decoder Clock counter, (2) Controllable Oscillator, and (3) Feedback Loop. The startup and maintenance of a Decoder Clock is discussed in section 7. CEA-CEB-20 66.2.1 Decoder Clock counter A register accessible to the CPU which contains a counter incr

45、emented by the 27 MHz (nominal) controllable oscillator. This counter supplies the current Decoder Clock time and is used to properly time the display of audio and video presentation units and to assist with the elimination of the frequency variance between the Decoder Clock and Encoder Clock. 6.2.2

46、 Controllable Oscillator A 27 MHz (nominal) oscillator, with minor frequency adjustability accessible by the CPU. This oscillator defines the Decoder Clock frequency and is used to as a clock source to increment the Decoder Clock counter. It may be realized in a practical receiver by a VCXO or equiv

47、alent. ISO/IEC 13818-11 explicitly defines a STC rate tolerance of +/-810 Hz; the Controllable Oscillator should have pull-in range larger in order to accommodate actual implementation variance. 6.2.3 Feedback Loop A low pass filter that uses the difference between the PCR values and the Decoder Clo

48、ck counter values to eliminate Encoder Clock and Decoder Clock frequency variance. The output of the Feedback Filter is used to adjust the Controllable Oscillator. 6.3 Hardware for buffer management In general there are two kinds of butters that need to be managed on the decoder the compressed bitst

49、ream Presentation Unit buffer, and the buffer for the uncompressed Presentation Unit after decoding. Overflow of either buffer causes a problem in the decoder and can result in discontinuities in the audio or video playback and in a failure to maintain lip-sync. In order to manage these buffers the decoder has to first extract those PTS and DTS values that are available in the bitstream for some of the Presentation Units, and then derive PTS and DTS values for those Pre
