The ITU Telecommunicat

11、ion Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of the ITU. The 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 approval of Recommendations by the Members of the ITU-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some

13、areas of information technology which fall within IT-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC.

21、EASUREMENT OF PERFORMANCE VALUES IN PUBLIC DATA NETWORKS WHEN PROVIDING INTERNATIONAL PACKET-SWITCHED SERVICES (revised in 1997) 1 Introduction and scope 1.1 General This Recommendation defines echo, drop, generator and test DTEs for estimating the speed of service (delays and throughput) performanc

22、e of packet-switched public data networks. 1.2 Parameters to be measured The speed of service (delays and throughput) performance values for packet-switched public data networks defined in Recommendation X.135 are as follows: - Call Set-up delay (see clause 4X.135). - Data packet transfer delay (see

23、 clause 5X.135). - Throughput (see clause 6X.135). - Clear indication delay (see clause 7X.135). Note that Recommendation X.135 considers the Quaiity of Service for networks with 9600 bih and 64 kbi/s access speeds and that this Recommendation provides means for measuring the parameters for these sp

24、eeds; higher speeds may be used in the future. 1.3 Accuracy requirements of measurement The various performance measurement techniques provide differing accuracy capabilities. The accuracy required for the measurements will depend upon the use being made of the results. The accuracy requirements imp

25、act on the perfor- mance required of.the echo, drop, generator and test DTE functions. The measured value of the delay parameters included in Recommendation X.135 can be expected to be, in most cases, significantly greater than 100 ms. Consequently, an accuracy of approximately 10 ms or less, should

26、 be sufficient in these cases. The measured value of throughput as specified in Recommendation X.135 for 9.6 kbit/s access signalling can be expected in most cases to be in the range of 1000 to 9000 bih. Consequently, an accuracy to within 100 bids or less, should be sufficient in these cases. Accur

27、acy to within 100 bids or less will also be sufficient for the cases involving 64 kbids access signalling. Recommendation X. 138 provides detailed information on measurement architectures and, in Annex A, provides detailed information on the calculation of packet-switched network performance statist

28、ics and factors which can affect their observation. 1.4 Measurement method using echo, drop and generator DTEs This subclause describes echo, drop, generator and test DTEs that can be used in estimating speed of service perfor- mance. Echo, drop and generator DTEs shall be available at international

29、 gateways for testing national and international portions. It should be noted that there may be networks where the equipment providing the remote STE does not have X.25 ports. ln such a case the network provider shall make another anangement to provide the echo, drop and generator DTE functions.

30、ommendation X.139 (08/97) 1 COPYRIGHT International Telecommunications Union/ITU TelecommunicationsLicensed by Information Handling ServicesAn echo DTE is a DTE used in data packet transfer delay measurements providing the data loopback function of Recom- mendation X.138. A drop DTE performs the con

31、trolled, monitored sink function of 4.1K.138, in a throughput capacity measurement. A generator DTE performs the functions of a controlled, monitored source in a throughput capacity measurement. Echo, drop and generator DTEs should respond to incoming call Set-up requests with small (or fixed and kn

32、own) delays. This will allow the echo, drop and generator DTEs to also perform the functions of an unmonitored sink in a call set-up delay measurement. A test DTE is a device most commonly provided by the tester. It pairs with the echo, drop and generator DTEs and provides the functions of a control

33、led and monitored source andor sink. Clause 4 describes the procedures for using these echo, drop, generator and test DTEs. Clause 5 specifies them in greater detail. Clause 6 specifies where they will be located within networks. 2 Refer ences The following IT-T Recommendations and other references

The relevant call set

44、-up delay events are shown in Figure 2M.135. The end-to-end call Set-up delay is the call set-up delay between DTE boundaries, e.g. BI and i?, in Figure 2K.135. This end-to-end delay excludes the called user response time. This end-to-end call set-up delay can be estimated by measuring the time betw

45、een the sending of a call request packet and the receipt of a call connected packet at the calling X.25 DTE boundary and subtracting the time between the incoming call packet and the call accepted packet at the called X.25 DTE boundary. For a call between the boundaries B1 and B, in Figure 2M.135 th

46、is would correspond to the value of (t2 - ti) - (f4 - t3). Hence, this measurement can be performed at one portion boundary using a DTE at the remote end of the portion or portions to be measured (for example, an echo DTE), where that DTE has a known and fixed time between the receipt of an incoming

47、 call packet and its issue of a call accepted packet. This is shown in Figures la and Ib. 4 National portion b Local international Rec.
