1、 Rec. ITU-R BS.1283-1 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R BS.1283-1*A guide to ITU-R Recommendations for subjective assessment of sound quality (Question ITU-R 55/6) (1997-2003) The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that ITU-R has issued several Recommendations on subjective methods of assessing so

2、und quality; b) that methods used for the subjective assessment depend on the intended purpose of the assessment of sound quality itself and of the performance of audio systems, recommends 1 that subjective assessments are carried out according to the following ITU-R Recommendations: ITU-R BS.1284 G

3、eneral methods for the subjective assessment of sound quality; ITU-R BS.1116 Methods for the subjective assessment of small impairments in audio systems, including multichannel sound systems; ITU-R BS.1285 Pre-selection methods for the subjective assessment of small impairments in audio systems; ITU

4、-R BS.1286 Methods for the subjective assessment of audio systems with accompanying picture; ITU-R BS.1534 Method for the subjective assessment of intermediate quality level of coding systems; 2 that the applicability of one or more of the Recommendations should be decided, based on the purpose of t

5、he subjective assessment tests, before the tests are designed. The general considerations governing the range of applications of ITU-R Recommendations are given in Appendix 1. Appendix 2 contains references to similar standards and Recommendations produced by international organisations. *Radiocommu

ITU-R BS.1283-1 Appendix 1 General considerations governing the range of applications of ITU-R Recommendations relating to the subjective assessment of sound quality The met

7、hods used for the subjective assessment of sound quality itself and of the performance of audio systems depend to some extent on the intended purpose of the assessment. A number of Recommendations exist and this Recommendation gives guidance on the use of the other Recommendations. Recommendation IT

8、U-R BS.1284 General methods for the subjective assessment of sound quality: is intended for the general assessment of sound quality. It refers to Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116 which contains common requirements. Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116 Methods for the subjective assessment of small impairments i

9、n audio systems, including multichannel sound systems: is intended as the most critical methodology. It is intended for use in the assessment of systems which introduce impairments so small as to be undetectable without rigorous control of the experimental conditions and appropriate statistical anal

10、ysis. If used for systems that introduce relatively large and easily detectable impairment, it leads to excessive expenditure of time and effort and may also lead to less reliable results than those obtained by employing a simpler test method. Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116 forms the base reference fo

11、r the other Recommendations, which may contain additional special conditions or relaxations of the requirements of Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116. Recommendation ITU-R BS.1285 Pre-selection methods for the subjective assessment of small impairments in audio systems: is intended for the preliminary scr

12、eening of audio systems, prior to the application of the more stringent assessment methods of Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116. This screening will obviate the need for further tests of systems which introduce large impairments. Recommendation ITU-R BS.1286 Methods for the subjective assessment of audio

13、 systems with accompanying picture: is intended to cover those aspects of subjective assessment which are especially relevant to the case where the sound is accompanied by related pictures. Some aspects of the perceived sound quality are affected by the accompanying visual material. Recommendation I

14、TU-R BS.1534 Method for the subjective assessment of intermediate quality level of coding systems: is intended to cover those aspects of subjective assessment of intermediate quality level of coding systems. It is intended to give a reliable and repeatable measure of systems having audio quality, wh

15、ich would normally fall in the lower half of the impairment scale used by Recommendation ITU-R BS.1116. Clearly, some areas of application overlap. The applicability of one or more of the Recommendations should be decided, based on the purpose of the tests, before the tests are designed. The flow ch
