9、on ITU-R 81-1/6) (2012) Scope This Recommendation specifies general viewing conditions for subjective assessment of quality of SDTV and HDTV television pictures on flat panel displays. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that Recommendation ITU-R BT.500 has been developed assuming th

10、e use of CRT displays in subjective assessment; b) that the transition from CRT to non-CRT display imposes the use of non-CRT displays for subjective assessment; c) that the picture rendering characteristics may differ between CRT and non-CRT displays; d) that increasingly SDTV and HDTV flat panel d

11、isplays (FPDs) are being used for subjective quality assessment of television pictures, recognizing a) that Recommendations ITU-R BT.814 and BT.815 provide specifications and alignment procedures for setting of brightness and contrast of displays; b) that Recommendation ITU-R BT.1848 provides guidel

12、ines on safe areas of 625-line, 720-line and 1 080-line formats of wide-screen 16:9 aspect ratio digital productions; c) that Recommendation ITU-R BT.1886 specifies the reference electro-optical transfer function (EOTF) that the displays used in HDTV programme production should follow in order to fa

13、cilitate consistent picture presentation; d) that Report ITU-R BT.2129 investigates user requirements for a flat panel display as a master monitor in an HDTV programme production environment, noting 1 that specific viewing conditions for subjective assessments of specific systems are given in the re

14、lated Recommendations (e.g. Recommendation ITU-R BT.710 for the HDTV and Recommendation ITU-R BT.1129 for SDTV); 2 that Recommendations ITU-R BT.710 and BT.1129 came into force before the development of wide screen flat panel displays, recommends 1 that the general viewing conditions described in An

15、nex 1 should be used for subjective assessment of picture quality. 2 Rec. ITU-R BT.2022 Annex 1 1 General viewing conditions Different environments with different viewing conditions are described. The laboratory viewing environment is intended to provide critical conditions to check systems. General

16、 viewing conditions for subjective assessments in the laboratory environment are given in 1.1. The home viewing environment is intended to provide a means to evaluate quality at the consumer side of the TV chain. General viewing conditions in 1.2 reproduce a home environment. These parameters have b

17、een selected to define an environment slightly more critical than the typical home viewing situations. Some aspects relating to the monitor characteristics are also discussed. 1.1 General viewing conditions for subjective assessments in a laboratory environment The assessors viewing conditions shoul

18、d be arranged as follows: a) Room illumination: low b) Chromaticity of background: D65c) Peak luminance1: 70-250 cd/m2(See 1.7.2) d) Monitor contrast ratio: 0.02 (See 1.7.1) e) Ratio of luminance of background behind picture monitor to peak luminance of picture: 0.15 1.2 General viewing conditions f

19、or subjective assessments in a home environment a) Environmental illuminance on the screen (incident light from the environment falling on the screen, should be measured perpendicularly to the screen): 200 lux b) Peak luminance1: 70-500 cd/m2(See 1.7.2) c) Ratio of luminance of inactive screen to pe

20、ak luminance monitor contrast ratio: 0.02 (See 1.7.1) 1.3 Viewing distance The viewing distance is based on the screen size and it can be selected according to two distinct criteria: the preferred viewing distance (PVD) and the design viewing distance (DVD). The selection of one or the other of the

21、two criteria will depend upon the purpose of the study. 1.3.1 Preferred viewing distance The preferred viewing distance (PVD) is based upon viewers preferences which have been determined empirically. The PVD (in function of the screen sizes) is shown in Fig. 1, which contains a number of data sets c

22、ollected from available sources. This information may be referred to for designing a subjective assessment test. 1Peak luminance should be adjusted according to the room illumination. Rec.

24、 is the distance at which two adjacent pixels subtend an angle of 1 arc-min at the viewers eye; and the optimal horizontal viewing angle as the angle under which an image is seen at its optimal viewing distance.

ITU-R BT.2022 1.4 Observation angle The maximum observation angle relative to the normal should be constrained so that deviations in reproduced colour on the screen should not be visible to an observer. The optimal horizontal viewing a

28、ngle of an image system under test should also be considered to determine the observation angle. 1.5 Monitor processing Monitor processing such as image scaling, frame rate conversion, image enhancer, if implemented, should be done in such a way as to avoid introducing artefacts. A test report shoul

29、d indicate whether de-interlacer is used or not for interlaced signals. It is preferable not to use de-interlacer if interlaced signals can be displayed without it. 1.6 Monitor resolution The resolution of professional monitors usually complies with the required standards for subjective assessments

30、in their luminance operating range. To check and report the maximum and minimum resolutions (centre and corners of the screen) at the used luminance value might be suggested. If consumer FPD TV sets are used for subjective assessments, it is strongly recommended to check and report the maximum and m

31、inimum resolutions (centre and corners of the screen) at the used luminance value. At present the most practical system available to subjective assessments performers, in order to check monitors or consumer TV sets resolutions, is the use of a swept test pattern electronically generated. 1.7 Monitor

32、 adjustment Brightness and contrast of a monitor should be adjusted under the environment illuminance by using the PLUGE waveforms in accordance with Recommendation ITU-R BT.814. The monitor contrast ratio should be measured in accordance with Recommendation ITU-R BT.815. 1.7.1 Monitor contrast Cont

33、rast could be strongly influenced by the environment illuminance. Professional monitors seldom use technologies to improve their contrast in a high illuminance environment, so it is possible they do not comply with the requested contrast standard if used in a high illuminance environment. Consumer m

34、onitors typically use technologies to get a better contrast in a high illuminance environment. 1.7.2 Monitor brightness When adjusting the LCD monitor brightness, it is preferable to use backlight intensity control rather than using signal level scaling to retain the bit precision. In the case of ot

35、her display technologies that do not use a backlight, the white level should be adjusted by means other than signal level scaling. Note that PDP controls the brightness by the number of light radiations, and if lower brightness is set, tone reproduction will be degraded. Rec. ITU-R BT.2022 5 1.8 Mon

36、itor motion artefacts The display should not introduce motion artefacts that are introduced by specific display technologies. On the other hand, the motion effects included in the input signal should be represented on the display. 1.9 Monitor characteristics in general Note that using different char

37、acteristics of monitors would yield different picture quality. Thus, it is strongly recommended that characteristics of the monitors used should be checked beforehand.
