6、 G.1091 Quality of Experience requirements for telepresence services Summary Telepresence is an interactive audio-visual communications experience between remote locations, where users enjoy a strong sense of realism and presence between participants by optimizing a variety of attributes such as aud

7、io and video quality, eye contact, gaze awareness, body language, spatial audio, coordinated environments and natural image size. In this regard, delivering a high-level of quality of experience (QoE) is an important factor. Recommendation ITU-T G.1091 provides guidelines for achieving high QoE in t

8、elepresence services. First, a high-level description of a telepresence system is described, with an overview of important use cases. Then, specific audio and visual parameters, and other characteristics that are important from a QoE perspective are defined. Where possible, specific values for the p

9、arameters necessary to achieve high QoE are recommended, along with references to associated test methodologies.

ITU-T G.1091 (10/2014) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the

11、 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 technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standa

12、rdizing 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 which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is cov

13、ered 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 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indi

14、cate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achiev

15、ed 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. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL P

16、ROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asse

17、rted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned

24、mendation ITU-T G.1091 Quality of Experience requirements for telepresence services 1 Scope This Recommendation provides guidelines for achieving high quality of experience (QoE) in telepresence services. First, a high-level description of a telepresence system is described, with an overview of impo

25、rtant use cases. Then, specific audio and visual parameters, and other characteristics that are important from a QoE perspective are defined. Where possible, specific values for the parameters necessary to achieve high QoE are recommended, along with references to associated test methodologies. The

26、list of parameters and requirements is not to be considered as an exhaustive list, and it is expected that this Recommendation will be updated as more experience is gained with telepresence systems. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, throu

27、gh reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All Recommendations and other references are subject to revision; users of this Recommendation are therefore encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying t

28、he most recent edition of the Recommendations and other references listed below. A list of the currently valid ITU-T Recommendations is regularly published.

40、lepresence system description The term “telepresence systems“ is used to refer to conferencing systems that provide high definition and high quality audio/video, enabling a “being-there“ experience. A telepresence system includes endpoints (both telepresence and legacy), multipoint control unit (MCU

41、), call and resource controller (CRC), gateway (GW), management system, etc., as shown in Figure 2. ITU-T H.420, “Telepresence System Architecture“, provides a detailed description of a telepresence system. Figure 2 High-level telepresence architecture network model 6.2 Use cases Clause 6 of ITU-T F

42、.734, “Definitions, requirements, and use cases for telepresence systems“, presents a set of use cases describing typical scenarios. The most common and basic use cases are introduced and illustrated in detail, which are described from the viewpoint of the users. 6.2.1 Use case 1: Symmetric point-to

43、-point meeting In this use case, each of the two sites has an identical number of screens, with cameras having fixed fields of view, and one camera for each screen. The number of screens or cameras is not relevant as long as both sites have the same number. The sound type is the same at each end. Fi

44、gure 3 illustrates the use case. Figure 3 Use case 1: Symmetric point-to-point meeting For further information, see clause 3.1 of b-IETF RFC 7205. Rec. ITU-T G.1091 (10/2014) 5 6.2.2 Use case 2: Multipoint meeting In this use case of a multipoint telepresence conference, there are more than two site

45、s participating. Figure 4 illustrates the use case. The number of screens or cameras can be different or the same. Each site can have different audio/video characteristics. For further information, see clause 3.3 of b-IETF RFC 7205. Figure 4 Use case 2: Multipoint meeting 7 Audio characteristics Thi

46、s clause describes the audio characteristics related to QoE of telepresence services in more detail. 7.1 Send and receive loudness ratings Telepresence systems shall send audio to other telepresence systems with a SendLoudnessRating of (+ 13 Fs) dB, measured in accordance with ITU-T P.300. In order

47、to take into account the difference between the reference test positioning and the actual microphone-talker operating distance (ds), for which the terminal is adjusted, the following correction factor Fs is defined: (ds in metres) Telepresence systems shall receive audio from other telepresence syst

48、ems with a nominal Receive Loudness Rating of (+ 5 Fr) dB, measured in accordance with ITU-T P.300. In order to take into account the difference between the reference test positioning and the actual loudspeaker-listener operating distance (dr) for which the terminal is adjusted, the following correc
