AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD Approval of an American National Standard requires review by ANSI that the requirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards
6、Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made towards their
7、 resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether he has approved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards.

AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ATIS-0100522.2000American National Standard for Telecommunications Quality of Service for Business Multimedia Conferencing 1 1 Scope, Purpose and Application This document specifies classes of Quality of Service (QOS) sufficient to support Business Multim
20、edia Conferencing on Internet Protocol (IP) networks, defined as equivalent to legacy conference system performance (e.g., H.320 at Basic Rate Interface (BRI) rates). It also specifies the threshold of perceptible impairment for some user interface parameters. This standard applies to communications
21、 between a subset of multimedia end-points, namely Video Teleconference room systems and Desktop systems. The current scope is limited to H.323 point-to-point communication (Multipoint communication is for further study). It applies to cases where IP is utilized between the end-points (e.g., IP/Circ
22、uit-Switched Hybrid Network connections are for further study, e.g. networks supporting H.320-compliant terminals). Figure 1 illustrates some of the terminology of this clause. A user-to-user connection has components on the Customer Installation, and components of one or more network service provid
23、ers between the network interfaces. The Customer Installation includes a multimedia Figure 1 - User-to-User Connection on an IP Network TE TER R R RR R. . . . . .NetworkEnd-End Network (Bearer Service)NetworkNetworkCustomer Installation Customer InstallationUser-to-User Connection (Teleservice QOS)T

25、e). A Teleservice provides a complete user-to-user communications capability, while Bearer Services provide the transport of signals between network interfaces, and do not include the customers terminal equipment or local network. Furthermore, the Network Interface shown in Figure 1 is equivalent to
26、 the ITU-T user-network interface. All networks in the Figure are not necessarily identical, especially in regards to the position of functions such as authentication and billing. Resources (e.g., capacity) may be reserved on some networks comprising the connection, and not on others. Some networks
27、may not be IP-routed networks, e.g., dedicated lines, frame relay networks, and other networks where routers are not present within the administrative boundaries (shown as R in Figure 1). The user-to-user QOS is dependent on the quality and performance of all components that work to establish, or co
28、mprise the media connection. This standard will identify objectives for the user-to-user connection, and allocate portions to the Customer Installation (TE and LAN) and end-end network components. There are different suppliers for terminal equipment and network services, and the allocation will assu
29、re that the intended user-to-user performance levels are achieved. It will not allocate portions to individual network providers. The following are intended uses for this standard: 1. Network planning. 2. Network and Customer Installation component development. 3. User-to-User connection planning. I
30、n connection with User-to-User connection planning activities (item 3), it is necessary to stipulate the desired system type(s). Further, there are cases where certain measurement procedures must be agreed to in advance, since the standardized measurement coverage was incomplete at the time this sta
31、ndard was developed. Although this standard specifies IP network performance parameters, some Non-IP services procured must be evaluated using alternate parameter sets. Draft ITU-T Recommendation I.381, in development at the time this standard was prepared, provides a mapping between the IP layer an
32、d lower layer parameters. Another consideration is whether the Acceptable Level specified in this standard is the goal. When referenced for procurement purposes, the purchaser should specify which values of tables 5 through 12 apply. 2 Normative References The following standards contain provisions
