Foreword This Technical Report (TR) has been produced by ETSI Project Telecommunications and Internet Protocol Harmonization Over Networks (TIPHON). 6 ETSI TR 101 329 V2.l.l (199946) 1 Scope The present document applies to iP networks that provide voice telephony in accordance with any of th
18、e TIPHON scenarios. It contains: - General information on end-to-end quality and the way in which quality is affected by various components in the TIPHON system. A definition of four classes of TIPHON Quality of Service that may be used to class TIPHON services in peering arrangements and supply con
19、tracts where different tariffs may apply to different levels of quality or where guarantees of performance may be given. These classes apply to end-to-end performance but exclude the acoustic performance of terminals. They describe only: - one-way non-interactive speech quality; - end-to-end delay;
20、- call set up time. A description of the relationship of the performance of terminals and TIPHON network to the end-to-end TIPHON Quality of Service classes. A description of how the performance of TIPHON systems, terminals and networks can be measured. - - - 2 References The following documents con

PSI 361 3 Def i n it ions and abbreviations 3.1 Def in t ions For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply: dBm: Power level with reference to 1 mW. dBmO At the reference frequency (1
37、 MO Hz), L dBmO represents an absolute power level of L dBm measured at the transmission reference point (O dBr point), and a level of L + x dBm measured at a point having a relative level of x dBr. See ITU-T Recommendation G.100 7, annex A.4. echo: Unwanted signal delayed to such a degree that it i
38、s perceived as distinct from the wanted signal. Taker echo: Echo produced by reflection near the listeners end of a connection, and disturbing the talker. Listener echo: Echo produced by double reflected signals and disturbing the listener. Loudness rating: As used in the G-Series Recommendations fo
39、r planning; loudness rating is an (LR) objective measure of the loudness loss, .e. a weighted. electro-acoustic loss between certain interfaces in the telephone network. If the circuit between the interfaces is subdivided into sections, the sum of the individual section LRs is equal to the total LR.
40、 in loudness rating contexts, the subscribers ate represented from a measuring point of view by an artificial mouth and an artificial ear respectively, both being accurately specified. overa loudness: Loudness loss between the speaking Subscribers mouth and the rating (OLR) listening subscribers ear
41、 via a connection. talker echo: Loudness loss of the speakers voice sound reaching his ear as a delayed loudness rating echo. See ITU-T Recommendation G.122 12, subclause 4.2 and TlW-T Recommendation G.131 13, figure 1.1 (TELR). TCLw Terminal Coupling Loss weighted: Weighted coupling loss between th
42、e receiving port and the sending port of a terminal due to acoustical coupling at the user interface, electrical coupling due to crosstalk in the handset cord or within the electrical circuits, seismic coupling through the mechanical parts of the terminal. For a digital handset it is commonly in the
43、 order of 40 dB to 46 dB. TCLwst Weightea terminal coupling loss -single talk Weighted loss between Rin and Sout network interfaces when AEC is in normal operation, and when there is no signal coming from the user. TCLwdt Weighted terminal coupling loss -double talk Weighted loss between Rin and Sou
44、t network interfaces when AEC is in normal operation, and when the local user and the far-end user talk simultaneously. SLR (from ITU-T Recommendation G.11181) Send Loudness Rating: Loudness loss between the speaking subscribers mouth and an electric interface in the network. The loudness loss is he
45、re defined as the weighted (dB) average of driving sound pressure to measured voltage. The weighted mean value for ITU-T Recommendations G.111 8 and G.121 i i is 7 to 15 in the short term, 7 to 9 in the long term. The rating methodology is described in -T Recommendations P.64 21, P.76 22 and P.79 23
46、. 9 ETSI TR 101 329 V2.1.1 (199946) RLR (from ITU-T Recommendation 6.111 8) Receive Loudness Rating: Loudness loss between an electric interface in the network and the listening subscribers ear. The loudness loss is here defined as the weighted (a) average of driving e.m.f to measured sound pressure
47、. The weighted mean value for iT-T Recommendations G.111 SI and G.121 1 i is 1 to 6 in the short term, I to 3 in the long term. The rating methodology is described in iT-T Recommendations P.64 21, P.76 22 and P.79 23. CLR Circuit loudness rating: Loudness loss between two electrical interfaces in a
48、connection or circuit, each interface terminated by its nominal impedance which may be complex. This is O for a digital circuit, 0.5 for an mixed analoguddigital circuit. TIPHON terminal: Terminal that is either dedicated (e.g. a telephone set) or general purpose (e.g. a computer running an applicat
49、ion that performs the terminal function) and that: - is intended for connection to an IP-network; - provides the functionality defined in TS 101 312 32; and - meets at least one of the TIPHON terminal quality of service classes; - defined in the present document. 3.2 Abbreviations For the purposes of the present document, the following abbreviations apply: ACR ADSL ASL ATM GSM GSM HR GSM FR GSM EFR ISDN Ip ISP lWF LAN MOS PPP NIC PSTN Qos RSVP RTP SBM SCN TCP TRM UDP VDSL VOIP VTOA XDSL Abs
