J.601 (11/2005) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (I
5、TU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications. 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 standa
6、rdizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication 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 cov
7、ered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some 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 indi
8、cate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized 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
9、 when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “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 PRO

H.222.0 (MPEG-2 TS) should be used as a multiplexing method also for transport over IP networks. ITU-T Rec. J.120 sho
37、uld be used for LSDI transport over UDP/IP networks. ITU-T Rec. J.120 uses SDP as presentation description, RTSP as session control, and RTP as media packet format. Transmission of SDP is outside the scope of this Recommendation, TCP/IP should be used for RTSP session control and UDP/IP should be us
38、ed for RTP packet transmission. RTP is defined in 9 and its framing format is defined in 10 (See Section 2). Only H.222.0 (MPEG-2 Transport Stream) is defined as an upper layer of the RTP packet in this Recommendation. Therefore, payload type 33 (MP2T) should be used. ITU-T Rec. J.601 (11/2005) 5 9.
39、2 Transport over TCP/IP In this Recommendation, ISO file formats for H.264, for H.262 and for Motion JPEG2000 should be used as a multiplexing format for LSDI transport over TCP/IP. This Recommendation defines two transport modes over TCP/IP. For the progressive download mode, ITU-T Rec. J.127 shoul
40、d be used for LSDI over TCP/IP networks. ITU-T Rec. J.127 uses XHTML description for presentation description, HTTP for session control and does not specify multiplexing format for the media. For the file downloading mode, any other file transmission protocols such as FTP or HTTP may be used; this d
41、epends on availability and is outside the scope of this Recommendation. Appendix I An example of a film-based system that gives viewers visual experiences of a high-sensation of reality This appendix provides a graphical representation of the area of application of this Recommendation (see Figure I.
42、1), based on the horizontal viewing angle subtended by the presentation screen at the position of the viewers. The application is designed on the basis of viewing angles that are typical of IMAX and OMNIMAX theatres. Figure I.1/J.601 Horizontal viewing angle of the IMAX system 6 ITU-T Rec. J.601 (11
43、/2005) Appendix II Viewing angles for the hierarchy of LSDI systems This appendix indicates the horizontal viewing angles and the viewing distances (relative to picture heights) for which the higher formats were designed, which are covered in this Recommendation for the extended hierarchy of the LSD

Appendix III A study of the psychological effects of wide-screen video systems for LSDI applications III.1 Introduction This appendix describes the psychological evaluation results of “sensation of reality“ of LSDI
46、 covering from HDTV format to expanded format. The results would contribute towards determining system parameter values such as display size, viewing distance and spatial resolution. III.2 Subjective evaluation experiments A single stimulus method with a seven-grade categorical scale (1 = no presenc
47、e at all; 7 = very strong presence) was used for evaluating the “sensation of reality“ of images projected on a screen. The size of images was varied by changing the number of scanning lines from 1000 to 4000. The viewing distance was determined to be the point at which viewers with normal vision co
48、uld no longer discern the scanning line structure. This corresponds to three times the picture height when the image size is 1920 1080. The viewing angle varies between 33 and 100 degrees according to the image size. Table III.1 lists the experimental conditions. Forty-one non-expert subjects evalua
49、ted five still landscape pictures listed in Table III.2. They were photographed from different camera angles of 60 and 100 degrees to see the effect of spatial distortion resulting from the mismatch between the screen-viewing angle and camera angle, which can result in a reduced “sensation of reality“.
