9、tion ITU-T G.107 The E-model: a computational model for use in transmission planning Summary Recommendation ITU-T G.107 gives the algorithm for the so-called E-model as the common ITU-T transmission rating model. This computational model can be useful to transmission planners, to help ensure that us

10、ers will be satisfied with end-to-end transmission performance. The primary output of the model is a scalar rating of transmission quality. A major feature of this model is the use of transmission impairment factors that reflect the effects of modern signal processing devices. In the 2000 version of

11、 this Recommendation, an enhanced version of the E-model was provided in order to better take into account the effects of room noise at the send side and quantizing distortion. With the 2002 version, the impairment due to random packet loss was included in a parametric way for different codecs. Sinc

12、e the 2003 version, an enhanced modelling of quality in the case of low talker sidetone levels is provided. The 2005 version enabled more accurate quality predictions for codecs under (short-term) dependent packet loss. The 2009 version included an Appendix II describing a provisional impairment fac

13、tor framework for wideband speech transmission. In 2011, this appendix was updated in favour of a new Recommendation ITU-T G.107.1. In the current version, the model has been extended to provide an assessment of delay impairments that is also better tailored to less delay-sensitive use cases. Carrie

14、r-grade or enterprise-grade telephony systems must be assessed with the default delay sensitivity parameters, while communication systems with low or very low interactivity requirements can be assessed with different parameters.

18、ORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying

19、technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing 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 wh

20、ich, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered 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 an

21、d IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (t

The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such word

23、s does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right.

31、e in transmission planning 1 Scope This Recommendation describes a computational model, known as the E-model, that has proven useful as a transmission planning tool for assessing the combined effects of variations in several transmission parameters that affect the conversational1 quality of 3.1 kHz

32、handset telephony. This computational model can be used, for example, by transmission planners to help ensure that users will be satisfied with end-to-end transmission performance whilst avoiding over-engineering of networks. It must be emphasized that the primary output from the model is the “ratin

33、g factor“ R but this can be transformed to give estimates of customer opinion. Such estimates are only made for transmission planning purposes and not for actual customer opinion prediction (for which there is no agreed-upon model recommended by the ITU-T). The E-model can be used with confidence fo

34、r many combinations of high importance to transmission planners, but for some parameter combinations of high importance, E-model predictions have been questioned and are currently under study. Annex A provides further information in this regard. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and o

43、on planning 6.1 Introduction The complexity of modern networks requires not only that, for transmission planning, each of the many transmission parameters be considered individually but also that their combined effects be taken into account. This can be done by “expert, informed guessing“, but a mor

44、e systematic approach is desirable, such as by using a computational model. The output from the model described here is a Rec. ITU-T G.107 (06/2015) 3 scalar quality rating value, R, which varies directly with the overall conversational quality. ITU-T G.113 gives guidance about specific impairments,

45、 including combined effects based upon a simplification of the model. However, the output can also give nominal estimates of the user reactions, for instance in the form of percentages finding the modelled connection good or better (GoB) or poor or worse (PoW), as described in Annex B. Furthermore,

46、detailed guidance on the proper application of the E-model, as described in this Recommendation, is provided in ITU-T G.108. In addition, the definition of categories of speech transmission quality can be found in ITU-T G.109. 7 Structure and basic algorithms of the E-model The E-model is based on t

47、he equipment impairment factor method, following previous transmission rating models. It was developed by an ETSI ad hoc group called “Voice Transmission Quality from Mouth to Ear“. The reference connection, as shown in Figure 1, is split into a send side and a receive side. The model estimates the

48、conversational quality from mouth to ear as perceived by the user at the receive side, both as listener and talker. Figure 1 Reference connection of the E-model The transmission parameters used as an input to the computation model are shown in Figure 1. Values for room noise and for the D-factors ar

49、e handled separately in the algorithm for the send side and receive side and may be of different amounts. The parameters send loudness rating (SLR), receive loudness rating (RLR) and circuit noise Nc are referred to a defined 0 dBr point. All other input parameters are either considered as values for the overall connection, such as overall loudness rating (OLR), i.e., the sum of SLR and RLR, number of qdu, equipment impairment factors Ie and advantage factor A, or refer
