ETSI ETSI EG 202 534 V1.1.3 (2007-07) 5 Introduction Real-time person-to-person communication services offer users the opportunity to interact using various communication media: text, audio, graphics,

18、 video and data. The communication services that use these media are real-time conversational text, audio-telephony, audio conferencing, avatar-telephony, data conferencing (e.g. a shared presentation or workspace), videotelephony, videoconferencing and multimedia conferencing. These services place

19、different demands on the communication channel and terminal equipment (figure 1). In addition, these services continue to evolve for both mobile and static usage and provide complex choices regarding the most appropriate technologies, media and services that are suitable for different communication

20、situations. TR 102 274 identified the need to develop guidelines for network operators, equipment manufacturers and service providers that address: the configuration and quality of different communication media; the selection between different communication media; acceptability of different communic

21、ation media; future applications for real-time human communication services. Figure 1: Main real-time person-to-person communication media and services Distinction between Quality of Service and Quality of Experience When implementing real-time person-to-person services there are many network, codec

22、 and environment characteristics that may interfere with human communication (Hestnes et al 2003). In a packet switched network the interfering characteristics are bandwidth, packet size, delay, delay jitter, packet loss, burst packet loss and sequencing. The codec characteristics are the media prot

23、ocols (e.g. G.7xx, H.26x, MPEGx), video space resolution, video time resolution, delay, distortion and monitor size. The environmental characteristics are lighting conditions, background patterns, colour and reflex, acoustics, audio echo degradation, viewing distance, camera position and camera para

24、meters. Description of these technical parameters is provided in Heim et al (2001). These technical characteristics are typically a topic of Quality of Service (QoS), with measures of QoS being based on theoretical mathematical and engineering principles and removed from measures of quality as exper

25、ienced by end-users. From a more user-centred perspective the concept of “Quality of Experience“ (QoE) is attracting growing attention (Hestnes et al, 2003, Nokia, 2004). ITU-T SG 12 Q13/12 is addressing “Multimedia QoE/QoS performance requirements and assessment methods“. By developing definitions

26、proposed by Nortel (2003), Siller and Woods (2003) and TR 102 274 the current report suggests that QoE is: The performance of users when using what is presented by a communication service or application user interface. It takes into account the individual Quality of Services and measures the accepta

27、bility of a service or application by including factors such as usability, utility, fidelity and level of support from the application or service provider (e.g. sales, delivery, error corrections). This is a general definition that should be able to encompass more specific concerns. What is importan

28、t for current purposes is that although QoE embodies psychological measures of user behaviour it is also expressed in relation to technical QoS. Therefore, user-centred guidelines for real-time communication services should succeed where possible to combine both QoE and QoS measures to provide an ex

29、pression of the user behaviour when performing a particular communication task with a particular communication service with known levels of QoS (TR 102 274). ETSI ETSI EG 202 534 V1.1.3 (2007-07) 6 Linking QoS and QoE in user-centred guidelines TR 102 274 proposes an approach for deriving user-centr

30、ed guidelines from user test results by extracting and combining QoE and QoS parameters where these data are known. The approach derives a database of detailed intermediate guidelines from which more concise guidelines can be abstracted. The intermediate guidelines are constructed based on the claus

31、e: IF ; USING ; WITH ; THEN . The attributes , , and have sub-attributes and sometimes sub-sub-attributes in order to cover the problem space and to correspond to existing knowledge of media effects on communication behaviour (TR 102 274). For example, the attribute “Communication Situation“ has the

32、 sub-attributes “Task“, “Setting“ and “User“; and “Task“ is defined by sub-sub-attributes including “Duration“, “Situation formality“ and “Urgency“. The “Service prescription“ contains the service used (e.g. telephony or video conferencing), the “technical parameters“ concern QoS measures such as ne

33、twork delay and packet loss and “usage outcome“ includes variables such as user communication efficiency and satisfaction. With this essential information collected and structured, guidelines can be abstracted that aim to state the principal messages of relevance to the intended guideline users (Bro

34、oks et al., 2003). It is these abstracted guidelines (figure 2) that form the main content of the current report. Figure 2: Guidelines are derived from base knowledge through a process of intermediate guideline development that map QoE and QoS variables Maturity and restrictions of the guidelines Th

35、e guidelines are considered initial due to the relative novelty of this area of work. While based on scientifically derived empirical data or expert opinion, the validity of some guidelines remains open for further study. For example, some of the user tests on which the guidelines are based should b

36、e replicated and extended to different user groups and task types. Whereas there may be cross-cultural issues concerned with real-time communication services, the available user test data is mainly restricted to samples within particular countries (e.g. the UK and Norway). Most of the empirical test

37、s involve condition comparisons that reveal where significant differences between independent variables exist and were not designed to identify precise thresholds. Also, most of the laboratory results that exist to date concern dyadic communication (i.e. between two people) that is point-to-point (i

38、.e. between two locations). Some field data exists for group communication (i.e. between three or more people) that is point-to-point. There is currently little data available for multi-point communication (i.e. between three or more locations). ETSI ETSI EG 202 534 V1.1.3 (2007-07) 7 1 Scope The pr

39、esent document provides guidelines for real-time person-to-person communication services. The guidelines are intended for persons working in network operator, equipment manufacturer, service provider and other organizations who may influence the development of services for end-users. This includes s

40、trategic planners, sales persons, customer support personnel and conference meeting facilitators. The services examined concern text communication, audio communication, avatar communication, data communication, video communication and multimedia communication. Service aspects include audio-video syn

41、chrony, video resolution, video delay and packet loss for fixed and mobile networks. Some of the guidelines are developed from initial guidelines contained in TR 102 274 whilst others were created for the present document. Guidelines are provided for topics that have been identified as important for

42、 intended guideline users and for which user-based data existed or could be collected. Therefore, the development of guidelines from published literature is not exhaustive. 2 References No references are considered essential for the use of the present document. Articles and reports on which the tech

43、nical work was based and from which the guidelines were produced are listed in annex C “Bibliography“. 3 Definitions and abbreviations 3.1 Definitions For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply: asynchrony: when audio and video information that leaves one com

44、municating party at the same time is received by the other communicating party at different times (e.g. typically the audio information arrives before the video information in an asynchronous situation) NOTE: It is calculated as audio delay subtracted from video delay (e.g. if audio delay is 50 ms a

45、nd video delay is 200 ms, then asynchrony is 150 ms; if audio delay is 100 ms and video delay is 50 ms, then asynchrony is -50 ms). audio communication: use of a service that transmits voice in real-time over a telecommunication network, such as ordinary telephony with a handset and loudspeaking aud
