Rec. ITU-T H.248.9 (12/2009) i Recommendation ITU-T H.248.9 Gateway control protocol:
8、 Advanced media server packages Summary Recommendation ITU-T H.248.9 provides two sets of packages: syntactic and functional. The syntactic packages provide the ability to specify announcements with variable content, with a degree of flexibility constrained only by the provisioning of the MG and MGC
9、. This syntax may in principle be used to specify multimedia announcements, although its application in this Recommendation is to evoke audio content. The functional packages provide advanced control of an Audio Resource Function using the ITU-T H.248.1 protocol. The packages provide the ability to
10、play recorded announcements with variable content, carry out prompted collection of digits, and carry out prompted collection of recorded audio. An additional package provides the ability to manage recorded media segments on the media gateway. Additional functionality incorporated by ITU-T H.248.9 (
11、2005) Amendment 1 (2007): 6.3.6.11 New variable type “Tone“ for dynamic audio segment specification. 6.4 Set extension of basic syntax: introduction of a new selector for text attributes. 6.5.5.1 Variable type “Phrase“: introduction of subtypes. 9.3.1 Signal PlayCollect: enhanced functionality, new
12、parameters. NOTE This Recommendation has been renumbered in 2002. It was formerly known as Rec. ITU-T H.248 Annex M.1. ITU-T H.248.9 (2005) Amendment 1 (2007) defines packages which enable automatic speech recognition (ASR), text to speech (TTS) and multimedia playout functionality between a media g
13、ateway controller (MGC) and a media gateway (MG) controlled by ITU-T H.248.1. In this scenario, the MGC may take the form of a media controller (MC) and the MG may take the form of a media processor (MP). This revision introduces a number of new functions. The new functions include: A playout comple
14、tion event to determine the duration of the played announcement and the offset into the announcement the playout ended. The ability to report the key that terminates a recording as well as the length in time and bytes of the recording. It allows the MGC to specify whether recordings are amended to o
15、r overwrite a storage uniform resource identifier (URI). The ability to specify an offset into the announcement, where to start playing from. The ability to specify an absolute volume for an announcement. The ability to detect and report control digits and whether they are associated with the announ
16、cement or collection phases. The ability for control digits to request the MG to pause, resume, fast forward and rewind an announcement or to increase or decrease the volume of an announcement and to adjust the speed of delivery. The ability to indicate whether the collected digits should be stored
17、in a log file or not. For example: digits related to a pin code would not be stored. The ability to detect “marks“ within text to speech grammar script.

ITU-T H.248.9 (12/2009) 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 Standard
19、ization 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 Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which
20、 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 some areas of information technology which fall within ITU
21、-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 recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation
22、 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 “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must
23、“ 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 the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may
24、 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 development process. As of the date of approval of this
25、 Recommendation, ITU had 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 therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database

ITU-T H.248.9 (12/2009) 1 Recommendation ITU-T H.248.9 Gateway control protocol: Advanced media server packages 1 Scope This Recommendation uses the package mechanism to define a parameter syntax to provide a means of referring to pr
35、ovisioned announcements and variable content to be played within them. As indicated in documentation of the packages concerned, this syntax contains optional features, the support of which is indicated by the presence of the additional packages on the termination. The syntax may be used to evoke mul
36、timedia content. In addition, this Recommendation adds a series of functional packages to the Megaco/ITU-T H.248.1 protocol to control an Audio or Multimedia Resource Function which may reside on a media gateway or specialized audio server. The announcement specification syntax is described in a ser
37、ies of packages: Basic syntax package: Provides the syntax by which to refer to provisioned media segments, with a general capability for extension. See clause 6.1 for an introduction and clause 6.2 for detailed definition. Voice variables package: An optional extension to the base syntax, which pro
38、vides stand-alone and embedded variables, with an initial set of voice variable types. See clause 6.1.5 for an introduction and clause 6.3 for detailed definition. Set syntax package: An optional extension to the base syntax, which provides an arbitrary number of user-defined qualifiers to be used i
39、n resolving complex audio structures. For example, the user could define qualifiers for any or all of the following: language, accent, audio file format, gender, speaker or customer. See clause 6.1.6 for an introduction and clause 6.4 for detailed definition. Generic text syntax package: An optional
40、 extension to the base syntax, which provides a generic text voice variable type. See clause 6.1.7 for an introduction and clause 6.5 for a detailed definition. The functional packages documented in this Recommendation are as follows: Advanced audio server (AAS) base package: Provides a signal to pl
41、ay an announcement and events to monitor the outcome of the playout request. See clause 8. AAS base package for TTS enhancement: Provides signals to play TTS and an event to monitor the outcome of the playout request. See clause 13. AAS Digit collection package: Extends the AAS base package by provi
42、ding a signal and events to coordinate digit collection with the playout of prompting announcements. See clause 9. AAS recording package: Extends the AAS base package by providing a property, signals and events to coordinate the collection of recorded voice with the playout of prompting announcement
43、s. See clause 10. AAS segment management package allows the MGC to specify an alternative audio segment, which is played in place of a given segment whenever that segment is invoked, until the override is terminated by the MGC. It also allows deletion of persistent segments. Unlike the other package
44、s, this package is defined on a special logical segment control termination and uses only the basic announcement specification syntax. See clause 11. AAS automatic speech recognition package: Provides signals to play ASR and events to indicate the result of the play request. See clause 12. AAS Multi
45、media Play Package: Provides a signal to play a multimedia file and events to monitor the outcome of the playout request. See clause 14. 2 Rec. ITU-T H.248.9 (12/2009) AAS Multimedia Recording Package: Extends the AAS Recording Package to coordinate the collection of recorded multimedia. See clause
46、15. Enhanced DTMF Detection Package: This Package allows the MGC to determine whether digits were collected during a prompting or collection phase.
