ITU-R BT.1869 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R BT.1869 Multiplexing scheme for variable-length packets in digital multimedia broadcasting systems*(Question ITU-R 45/6) (2010) Scope This Recommendation deals with multiple

9、xing schemes for variable-length packets over broadcasting channels. Specifications are given for schemes for transporting IP packets over broadcasting channels: encapsulation format, header compressed IP packet format, and transmission control signals. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, consideri

10、ng a) that various kinds of signals for multimedia services may be delivered in digital broadcasting; b) that multimedia services have also been introduced in telecommunication networks where IP packets including IPv4 and IPv6 packets are used; c) that those IP packets are variable-length in essence

11、 with a maximum length of 65 535 bytes; d) that an IP-friendly transport mechanism is desirable for multimedia broadcasting services to enable harmonization between broadcasting services and telecommunication services; e) that an MPEG-2 transport stream has been adopted for digital broadcasting as a

12、 means of transporting various kinds of signals; f) that the MPEG-2 transport stream consists of short fixed-length packets of 188 bytes including a 184-byte payload; g) that a multiplexing scheme which enables more efficient transport and less complex reception of variable-length packets is desired

13、 for multimedia broadcasting, recommends 1 that for transport of variable-length packets in digital multimedia broadcasting systems, the multiplexing scheme described in Annex 1 should be used; 2 that compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain m

14、andatory 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” and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements.

15、The use of such words shall in no way be construed to imply partial or total compliance with this Recommendation. *This Recommendation should be brought to the attention of ITU-T Study Groups 9 and 16. 2 Rec.

24、length packets should support the following requirements: a) variable-length packets of various formats including IPv4 and IPv6 packets can be multiplexed; b) a maximum 65 535-byte-long packet can be multiplexed without fragmentation; c) the overhead needed to transmit packets should be small; d) th

25、e receiving process should be simple enough to process received packets at a high packet rate. 4 Rec. ITU-R BT.1869 3 Encapsulation scheme for variable-length packets 3.1 Format of type-length-value container The type-length-value (TLV) multiplexing scheme is shown in Fig. 2 and Table 1. This scheme

26、 can multiplex variable-length packets of any format unless packet filtering and fragmentation are needed. The type of packet is indicated by the packet_type field, and the length of the packet is indicated by the length field. Header compressed IP packets and transmission control signals can also b

27、e encapsulated into TLV containers. This scheme enables multiplexing a maximum 65 535-byte-long packet without fragmentation. The transmission overhead is small and the TLV multiplexing scheme efficiently uses transmission capacity. FIGURE 2 Format of TLV container BT.1869-02Packet_type= 0 01 Length

ITU-R BT.1869 3.2 Format of Generic Stream Encapsulation packet The Generic Stream Encapsulation (GSE) spec

34、ified in ETSI TS 102 606 4 is able to encapsulate variable-length packets, such as IP packets. Each GSE packet may have a label field and a CRC field. Receivers can filter packets they receive by using the label field of each packet. When GSE packets are fragmented into pieces to be set into transmi

35、ssion slots, the integrity of the restored packets can be ensured by checking the CRC. The GSE protocol has been devised as an adaptation layer to provide network layer packet encapsulation and fragmentation functions over Generic Stream. GSE provides efficient encapsulation of IP packets over varia

36、ble-length layer 2 packets, which are then directly scheduled on the physical layer into baseband frames. GSE maximizes the efficiency of IP packet transport reducing overhead by a factor of 2 to 3 with respect to MPE over MPEG-TS. This is achieved without any compromise of the functionalities provi

37、ded by the protocol, due to the variable-length layer 2 packet size, suited to IP traffic characteristics. GSE also provides additional features that increase the protocol flexibility and applicability. Some key GSE functions/characteristics are: 1 Support for multi-protocol encapsulation (e.g. IPv4

38、, IPv6, MPEG, ATM, Ethernet, and VLANs). 2 Transparency to network layer functions, including IP encryption and IP header compression. 3 Support of several addressing modes: In addition to the 6-byte MAC address (including multicast and unicast), it supports a MAC addressless mode, and an optional 3

39、-byte address mode. 4 A mechanism for fragmenting IP packets or other network layer packets over baseband frames to support ACM/VCM. 5 Support for hardware filtering. 6 Extensibility: additional link protocols can be included through specific protocol type values (e.g. layer 2 security, IP header co

40、mpression, etc.). 7 Low complexity. 4 IP packet header compression (Header Compression for Broadcasting: HCfB) When IP packets are to be conveyed as variable-length packets, it is convenient for broadcasting services to have much compatibility with various services using telecommunication networks.

41、Each IP packet generally has at least 20 bytes of IPv4 header or 40 bytes of IPv6 header, besides 8 bytes of UDP header. Based on these headers, routers in telecommunication networks need to decide which way each packet is to be transferred. Hence, these headers are very important in telecommunicati

42、on networks. On the other hand, they are never necessary in broadcasting channels, since all packets in broadcasting channels are just transferred to receivers. Transfer throughput can be increased if this unused header information is compressed. The format of a header compressed IP packet is shown

43、in Fig. 3 and Table 3. This reduces IP and UDP headers to 3 or 5 bytes of compressed header for most packets. When content is transferred on IP packets, most fields in these headers are constant during connection. Once an uncompressed header is sent, these fields with the same values in the followin

44、g packets may not necessarily be sent. Based on this principle, IP and UDP headers with all the information are sent at long intervals, and the compressed headers are sent for almost all packets. The compressed headers are restored at a receiver by filling them with the header of a preceding packet

45、that has all the information. Rec.
