6、ION FOR BROADBAND AUDIOVISUAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS AND TERMINALS Summary This Recommendation describes and specifies the means by which three or more H.3 1 O audiovisual communication terminals operating in the native mode may communicate simultaneously over B-ISDN and/or customer premises ATM netw

7、ork, such communication being designated a “multipoint call“. It also covers conference configurations including other H-series terminals. Source ITU-T Recommendation H.247 was prepared by ITU-T Study Group 16 (1997-2000) and was approved under the WTSC Resolution No. 1 procedure on the 25th of Sept

8、ember 1998. STD-ITU-T RECMN H-21r7-ENGL 1798 = 48b257L Ob54331 723 FOREWORD IT (International Telecommunication Union) is the United Nations Specialized Agency in the field of telecommunications. The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (IT-T) is a permanent organ of the IT. The IT-T is resp

9、onsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Conference (WTSC), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by th

10、e ITU-T Study Groups which, in their turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of Recommendations by the Members of the IT-T is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSC Resolution No. 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary stand

11、ards are prepared on a collaborative basis with IS0 and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS The ITU draws attention to the possibi

12、lity that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. The ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the

13、 Recommendation development process. As of the date of approval of this Recommendation, the ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementors are cautioned that this may not represent the latest i

14、nformation and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB patent database. O ITU 1998 All rights reserved.

24、tween three or more H.3 1 O terminals operating in the native mode. It also covers conference configurations including other H-series terminals. It is applicable to a single Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) that multicasts the multiplexed stream without any audio mixing nor video switching, and to a si

25、ngle MCU containing audio mixers and video switches. It is also applicable to an MCU containing video mixers, and to multiple MCUs. Recommendation H.3 1 O provides for communication between two audiovisual terminals connected point-to-point, using the multimedia multiplexer and network adaptation de

26、fined in Recommendations H.222.0 and H.222.1. Recommendation H.245 defines a number of Control and Indication signals, including those used in the multipoint communication procedures described in this Recommendation. Three or more native H.3 1 O terminals may be put into communication to form a conf

27、erence call, by means of one or more MCUs. It should be noted that the physical realization of an MCU may be such that two or more independent conferences are set up within the same unit; logically, however, there is no relationship between these conferences; the text herein refers to an MCU only as

28、 a logical entity pertinent to the particular call of concern. This Recommendation envisions providing: o a simple protocol stack that can support various applications (e.g. high-quality videoconferencing, distance learning and corporate TV broadcasting); mixture of bidirectional and multicast conne

29、ctions used in a panel discussion, and unidirectional connection like TV broadcasting); H.323, H.324; a support for various VC connection configurations (e.g. asymmetric bandwidth connection, o a conference configuration including other H-series terminals, i.e. H.320, H.321, H.322, an option support

30、ing continuous presence video display (video mixing); a multicast capability that significantly reduces the network traffic. o o For various VC connection configuration examples, the following are within the provision of this Recommendation: o n-point tightly coupled connection (e.g. multipoint vide

31、oconference); nl -point tightly coupled and n2-point loosely coupled connection (e.g. broadcast panel conference); a point-to-multipoint connection with some return channels (e.g. multipoint TV lecture). a a point-to-multipoint connection without return channels (e.g. broadcast conference); o o Reco

There are two basic multipoint configurations: MCU-based multipoint vs. decentralized multi-party multipoint. In the interest of traffic load which

33、is significant in the broadband environments, this Recommendation specifies MCU-based multipoint configurations. Decentralized multi-party multipoint is for future study.

The flow consists of a multiplex of audio

35、, video, control and indication signals, and optional user data as defined in Recommendation H.222.0 which should be handled by the MCU in a way which is satisfactory to the users. The signal multiplex on each path is fully in accordance with Recommendation H.222.0. Likewise, the basic procedures fo

36、r initialization and mode switching are fully in accordance with those defined in Recommendations H.3 10 and H.245 for point-to-point working. However, the composition of the multiplexed signal transmitted by each terminal and by the MCU is determined by terminai procedures and multipoint system pro

37、cedures, as follows: 4 terminal procedures are defined in service-specific system Recommendations, such as Recommendation H. 3 1 O for audiovisual communications systems and terminal equipment; b) multipoint system procedures are defined in this Recommendation, and are not of themselves service-spec

38、ific; c T.120/T.130: by making use of the T-series Recommendations, MCU and terminal procedures may be greatly enhanced, offering far more sophisticated specific applications to the user. Such enhancement is outside the scope of this Recommendation, although interactions with specific T. 120/T. 130

39、methods are described here. 2 Recommendation H.247 (09/98) STD-ITU-T RECMN H.ZLi7-ENGL 1778 48b2591 Ob5433b 405 The multipoint conferencing procedure and the MCU for H.320iH.321 interoperation mode of H.3 10 terminal are defined by Recommendations H.23 1 and H.243. 2 Normative references The followi
