9、st television in the presence of a reduced bandwidth reference (2011) Scope This Recommendation describes objective video quality assessment methods for standard definition digital broadcast television which can measure the perceptual video quality of mobile and stationary receiving conditions when

10、the features extracted from the reference video signal are readily available at the measurement point. The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that the ability to measure automatically the impairments of broadcast video signals has been desirable; b) that the perceptual video quality of

11、mobile reception may dynamically change depending on reception conditions; c) that objective measurement of perceived video quality may usefully complement subjective assessment methods; d) that three video quality measurement techniques for standard definition digital broadcast television in the pr

13、ed in Recommendation ITU-R BT.1683, recommends 1 that any of the objective video quality models given in Annex 1 should be used for objective measurement of perceived video quality for standard definition digital broadcast television in the presence of a reduced bandwidth reference. 1 Introduction T

14、his RRNR-TV test addresses images as defined in Recommendation ITU-R BT.601-6 and two types of models: reduced reference (RR), and no reference (NR). RR models have limited bandwidth access to the source video, and NR models do not have access to the source video. The HRCs in each experiment encompa

15、ssed both coding only artefacts and coding with transmission errors. The coding schemes examined were MPEG-2 and H.264 (MPEG-4 part 10). The MPEG-2 coders were run at a variety of bit rates from 1.0 to 5.5 Mbit/s. The H.264 coders were run at a variety of bit rates ranging from 1.0 to 3.98 Mbit/s. E

16、ach experiment included 12 source sequences, of which two were secret source. Each experiment included 34 HRCs, and 156 processed video sequences (PVSs). Of these PVSs, 40 contained transmission errors and 116 contained coding only. 2 Rec. ITU-R BT.1885 1.1 Application This Recommendation provides v

17、ideo quality estimations for video classes TV3 to MM5B, as defined in ITU-T Recommendation P.911, Annex B. The applications for the estimation models described in this Recommendation include but are not limited to: 1. potentially real-time, in-service quality monitoring at the source; 2. remote dest

18、ination quality monitoring when side-channels are available for features extracted from source video sequences; 3. quality measurement for monitoring of a storage or transmission system that utilizes video compression and decompression techniques, either a single pass or a concatenation of such tech

19、niques; 4. lab testing of video systems. 1.2 Limitations The estimation models described in this Recommendation cannot be used to fully replace subjective testing. Correlation values between two carefully designed and executed subjective tests (i.e. in two different laboratories) normally fall withi

20、n the range 0.95 to 0.98. If this Recommendation is utilized to compare different codecs, it is advisable to use a quantitative method (such as that in ITU-T Recommendation J.149) to determine the models accuracy for that particular context. The models in this Recommendation were validated by measur

21、ing objective video quality that exhibits frame freezes up to 2 s. The models in this Recommendation were not validated for measuring objective video quality that has a steadily increasing delay (e.g. video which does not discard missing frames after a frame freeze). It should be noted that in case

22、of new coding and transmission technologies producing artefacts which were not included in this evaluation, the objective evaluation models may produce erroneous results. Here a subjective evaluation is required. 2 References The following ITU Recommendations and other references contain provisions,

31、sewhere: 3.1.1 subjective assessment (picture) (ITU-T Recommendation J.144): optional quoted definition. 3.1.2 objective perceptual measurement (picture) (ITU-T Recommendation J.144): optional quoted definition. 3.1.3 Proponent (ITU-T Recommendation J.144): optional quoted definition. 3.2 Terms defi

32、ned in this Recommendation This Recommendation defines the following terms: 3.2.1 Anomalous frame repetition: is defined as an event where the HRC outputs a single frame repeatedly in response to an unusual or out of the ordinary event. Anomalous frame repetition includes but is not limited to the f

33、ollowing types of events: an error in the transmission channel, a change in the delay through the transmission channel, limited computer resources impacting the decoders performance, and limited computer resources impacting the display of the video signal. 3.2.2 Constant frame skipping: is defined a

34、s an event where the HRC outputs frames with updated content at an effective frame rate that is fixed and less than the source frame rate. 3.2.3 Effective frame rate: is defined as the number of unique frames (i.e. total frames repeated frames) per second. 4 Rec. ITU-R BT.1885 3.2.4 Frame rate: is d

35、efined as the number of unique frames (i.e. total frames repeated frames) per second. 3.2.5 Intended frame rate: is defined as the number of video frames per second physically stored for some representation of a video sequence. The frame rate shall be constant. Two examples of constant intended fram

36、e rates are a BetacamSP tape containing 25 fps and a VQEG FR-TV Phase I compliant 625-line YUV file containing 25 fps; these both have an intended frame rate of 25 fps. 3.2.6 Live network conditions: are defined as errors imposed upon the digital video bit stream as a result of live network conditio

37、ns. 3.2.7 Pausing with skipping: is defined as events where the video pauses for some period of time and then restarts with some loss of video information. In pausing with skipping, the temporal delay through the system will vary about an average system delay, sometimes increasing and sometimes decr

38、easing. One example of pausing with skipping is a pair of IP Videophones, where heavy network traffic causes the IP Videophone display to freeze briefly; when the IP Videophone display continues, some content has been lost. Constant frame skipping and variable frame skipping are subsets of pausing w

39、ith skipping. A processed video sequence containing pausing with skipping will be approximately the same duration as the associated original video sequence. 3.2.8 Pausing without skipping: is defined as any event where the video pauses for some period of time and then restarts without losing any vid

40、eo information. Hence, the temporal delay through the system must increase. 3.2.9 Refresh rate: is defined as the rate at which the display is updated. 3.2.10 Simulated transmission errors: are defined as errors imposed upon the digital video bit stream in a highly controlled environment. Examples i

41、nclude simulated packet loss rates and simulated bit errors. 3.2.11 Source frame rate (SFR): is the intended frame rate of the original source video sequences. The source frame rate is constant. For the VQEG RRNR-TV test the SFR was either 25 fps or 30 fps. 3.2.12 Transmission errors: are defined as

42、 any error imposed on the video transmission. Example types of errors include simulated transmission errors and live network conditions. 3.2.13 Variable frame skipping: is defined as an event where the HRC outputs frames with updated content at an effective frame rate that changes with time. The tem

43、poral delay through the system will increase and decrease with time, varying about an average system delay. A processed video sequence containing variable frame skipping will be approximately the same duration as the associated original video sequence. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendatio

It also may require correction for any offsets or gain differences in both the luminance and the chrominance channels. The objective picture quality rating is then calculated, typically by applying a perceptual model of human vision. Alignment and gain adjustment is known as normalization. This process is required because most reduced reference methods compare the features extracted from reference pictures and processed pictures on what
