10、 (03/2009) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsib
11、le for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T
12、 study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative b
13、asis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandato
14、ry provisions (to ensure e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The u
15、se of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes n

25、Recommendation ITU-T H.701 Content delivery error recovery for IPTV services 1 Scope The ability to deliver high level of service quality to users is an essential aspect of IPTV services, and thus captured in many IPTV-related requirements. As IPTV services can easily be degraded if the media decode
26、rs are exposed to impairments such as packet losses, mechanisms are needed to reliably deliver good IPTV service quality in the presence of such defects. This Recommendation integrates error recovery in the IPTV architecture, describes specific mechanisms and discusses the applicability of the mecha
27、nism to IPTV services and network conditions, and provides recommendations and guidance on their use. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

All Recommendations and other references are subject to revision; users of this Recommendation are therefore encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the Recommendations and other references listed below.

In the context of this Recommendation, this refers to the enhancement layers in the FEC as specified in ETSI TS 102 034. 3.3 FEC layer: One FEC stream of multiple ordered FEC streams where support of this layer means
35、that all FEC streams with more important order are also supported. 3.4 FEC stream: IP packet stream associated with a media stream that contains redundant data to reconstruct a media stream locally at the IPTV terminal. 3.5 forward error correction (FEC): FEC-based CDER mechanisms generate redundant
36、 data to allow the IPTV terminal to correct packet losses. With this redundant information, the receivers can recover from packet losses locally at the IPTV terminal. 3.6 retransmission: Retransmission-based CDER mechanisms use feedback messages to recover from packet losses. 4 Abbreviations and acr

41、XML eXtensible Markup Language 5 Conventions None. 6 Introduction Content delivery error recovery (CDER) is an important aspect for IPTV services. Data being delivered over IP networks may suffer from packet losses. In case of the delivery of video and audio, data errors, such as packet losses or bi
42、t errors being delivered to the media decoder, generally degrade the IPTV service quality. Moreover, losses in metadata such as electronic program guides (EPG), electronic content guides (ECG), and interactive user data may cause more severe problems in IPTV services. Therefore, data reliability sup
43、port is essential to IPTV services. This Recommendation addresses the requirement that the IPTV architecture provide a mechanism for resiliency of the service provider infrastructure in order to maintain a high QoE for video services ITU-T Y.Sup5. It addresses specific realizations of the content de
44、livery error recovery function and the content delivery error recovery client function in the IPTV architecture ITU-T Y.1910. Reference point E4 is used to exchange messages for delivering and requesting error recovery information ITU-T Y.1910. The support of content delivery error recovery mechanis
45、ms is not required for all networks, in particular for networks that can fulfil the desired IPTV service requirements. In case that a network cannot fulfil the packet loss requirements necessary to achieve the IPTV service requirements, the use of a content delivery error recovery solution is recomm
46、ended. Retransmission, forward error correction (FEC), and hybrid combinations of both are known mechanisms for error recovery. When an error recovery scheme and the associated protocol is selected, at least the following aspects should be taken into account: 1) type of IPTV service, e.g., linear TV
47、, content-on-demand, content download, EPG distribution, application data; 2) type of data delivery mechanisms, e.g., broadcast, multicast, unicast, overlay multicast, or peer-to-peer; 3) protocol or processing overhead at senders and receivers; 4) network bandwidth overhead aspects. 4 Rec. ITU-T H.
48、701 (03/2009) This Recommendation is structured as follows: Clause 7 introduces the content delivery error recovery architecture and provides some high-level descriptions of the involved functional blocks and interfaces. Clause 8 provides an overview on different CDER mechanisms for streaming, i.e.,
49、 for solutions in which the media stream is distributed in real-time and consumed at the same time. Clause 9 provides an overview on different CDER mechanisms for content download services, i.e., for solutions in which a media file is distributed to terminals for later consumption. This Recommendation also contains several annexes that contain specific recommendations for CDER mechanisms. The first release of this Recommendation is restricted to one annex specifying recommended FEC-b
