ITU-T Q.3912 (08/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication
11、technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World T
12、elecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T 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 som
13、e areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognize
14、d operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory 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
15、 “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use 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 t
16、he practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation
17、 development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are
18、therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database at http:/www.itu.int/ITU-T/ipr/. ITU 2013 All rights reserved.

The tes
37、t stream or input signals are sent from one endpoint of the network, and received by the remote answering machine located at another endpoint. Objective measurements are based on criteria and metrics that can be measured objectively and be evaluated automatically. The analysis of the measurement par
38、ameters value can be used to determine the performance or behaviour of the system. 6.2 Subjective measurement Subjective measurement is used to evaluate the audio or video quality by some viewers. The audio or video sequences are shown to the group of viewers and then their opinions are recorded and
39、 averaged to evaluate the quality of each audio or video sequence. 7 Monitoring parameters 7.1 Physical level parameters 7.1.1 Network node equipment status Network node equipment status is defined as the physical status (e.g., Power On/Off) of the network node. The network node status in the monito
40、ring platform can show the real-time network status. 4 Rec. ITU-T Q.3912 (08/2012) 7.1.2 Terminal status Terminal status is defined as the physical status (e.g., Power On/Off) of the terminal. The terminal status in the monitoring platform can show the real-time terminal status. 7.1.3 Physical link
41、status Physical link status is defined as the status (e.g., Up/Down) of the link between network nodes or terminals (e.g., the link between two network nodes, or the link between a network node and a terminal). 7.1.4 Link effective bandwidth Link effective bandwidth is defined as the actual speed at
42、 which data can be transmitted as compared with the theoretical maximum speed that the specific link can transmit. 7.2 Network level parameters The performance of an IP network has an important impact on streaming services. Network level performance parameters such as packet loss, burst loss, sequen
43、tial packet loss, count of reordered packets, latency, jitter, peak jitter and peak-to-peak jitter defined in ITU-T G.1050 can reflect a networks performance and should be monitored. Media delivery index (MDI) which is defined in b-IETF RFC 4445 can be used as a diagnostic tool or a quality indicato
44、r for monitoring a network intended to deliver applications such as streaming media, MPEG video, voice over IP (VoIP), or other information which is sensitive to arrival time and packet loss. MDI provides a readily scalable per-stream measure focusing on loss and the cumulative effects of jitter. Th
45、e MDI consists of two components: the delay factor (DF) and the media loss rate (MLR). DF and MLR are defined in b-IETF RFC 4445. 7.3 Transport level parameters 7.3.1 MPEG-2 TS parameters If the multimedia stream is multiplexed by MPEG-2 transport stream (TS) as defined in ITU-T H.222.0, then the MP
46、EG-2 TS parameters in Table 7-1 should be monitored. The MPEG-2 TS parameters in Table 7-1 are defined in b-ETSI TR 101 290.
