J.133 (07/2002) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of

9、 telecommunications. 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 standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World T

10、elecommunication 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 covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In som

11、e 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 indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognize

25、 clause presents a reference model (see Figure 1) for any source of a Transport Stream (TS) concerning the generation of PCR values and delivery delays. It models all the timing effects visible at the TS interface point. It is not intended to represent all the mechanisms by which these timing effect

26、s could arise in real systems. 2 ITU-T Rec. J.133 (07/2002) J.133_F01PCR counterPCR inaccuracy sourceMp,i+ABCReference clockf = 27 MHz + fdev(t)Np,iD + JiDelivery timingdelayFigure 1/J.133 Reference model Reference points are indicated by dashed lines. This is a model of an encoder/multiplexer (up t

27、o reference point B) and a physical delivery mechanism or communications network (between reference points B and C). The components of the model to the left of reference point B are specific to a single PCR packet identifier (PID). The components of the model to the right of reference point B relate

28、 to the whole Transport Stream. Measuring equipment can usually only access the TS at reference point C. The model consists of a system clock frequency oscillator with a nominal frequency of 27 MHz, but whose actual frequency deviates from this by a function fdev (p,t). This function depends on the

29、time (t) and is specific to a single PCR PID (p). The “Frequency Offset PCR_FO“ measures the value of fdev(p,t). The “Drift Rate PCR_DR“ is the rate of change with time of fdev(p,t). The system clock frequency oscillator drives a PCR counter which generates an idealized PCR count, Np,i. p refers to

30、the specific PCR PID p, and i refers to the bit position in the Transport Stream. To this is added a value from a PCR inaccuracy source, Mp,i, to create the PCR value seen in the stream, Pp,i. The simple relationship between these values is: ipipipMNP,+=(1) Mp,i represents the “Accuracy PCR_AC“. The

31、 physical delivery mechanism or communications network beyond point B introduces a variable delay between the departure time Tiand the arrival time Ui of bits: iiiJDTU +=(2) In the case of a PCR, Uiis the time of arrival of the last bit of the last byte containing the PCR base (see 2.4.3.5 of ITU-T

32、Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC13818-1 1). D is a constant representing the mean delay through the communications network. Jirepresents the jitter in the network delay and its mean value over all time is defined to be zero. Ji+ Mp,iis measured as the “Overall Jitter PCR_OJ“. In the common case where the Tran

33、sport Stream is constant bitrate, at reference point B, the Transport Stream is being transmitted at a constant bitrate Rnom. It is important to note that in this reference model this bitrate is accurate and constant; there is no error contribution from varying bitrate. This gives us an additional e

35、re a demarcation frequency for delimiting the range of drift rate and jitter frequencies of the timing variations of PCRs and/or TSs. The demarcation frequency used should be chosen from the Table 1 and indicated with the measurement results. A description of the derivation of the demarcation freque

36、ncies is included in Appendix I. Table 1/J.133 Profile Demarcation frequency Comments MGF1 10 mHz This profile is provided to give the total coverage of frequency components included in the timing impairments of PCR-related measurements. This profile provides the most accurate results in accordance

37、with the limits specified in 2.4.2.1 of ITU-T Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1. If jitter or drift-rate measurements are found out of specification when using other profiles, it is suggested to use this one for better accuracy. MGF2 100 mHz This profile is accounting for intermediate benefits between

38、the profiles MGF1 and MGF3, by giving reasonable measurement response as well as reasonable account for low frequency components of the timing impairments. MGF3 1 Hz This profile provides faster measurement response by taking in account only the highest frequency components of the timing impairments

39、. This profile is expected to be sufficient in many applications. MGF4 Manufacturer- defined This profile will provide any benefit that the manufacturer may consider as useful when it is designed and implemented in a measurement instrument. The demarcation frequency has to be supplied with the measu

40、rement result. Optionally any other data that the manufacturer may consider to be relevant may be supplied. For testing against ISO/IEC 13818-9 (25 ms jitter limit) a demarcation frequency of 2 mHz is required. A filter for such demarcation may be implemented under this MGF4 profile. 4.3 Program Clo

41、ck Reference Frequency Offset (PCR_FO) Definition PCR_FO is defined as the difference between the program clock frequency and the nominal clock Frequency (measured against a reference which is neither PCR- nor TS-derived). 4 ITU-T Rec. J.133 (07/2002) The units for the parameter PCR_FO should be in

42、Hz according to: Measured Frequency Nominal Frequency or in ppm expressed as: Measured Frequency (in Hz) Nominal Frequency (in Hz) Nominal Frequency (in MHz) Purpose The original frequency of the clock used in the digital video format before compression (program clock) is transmitted to the final re

43、ceiver in form of numerical values in the PCR fields. The tolerance as specified by ITU-T Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 is 810 Hz or 30 ppm. Interface For example, at interface G in Figure I.8. Method Refer to Appendix I for a description of a measurement method. 4.4 Program Clock Reference Drift

44、 Rate (PCR_DR) Definition PCR_DR is defined as the first derivative of the frequency and is measured on the low frequency components of the difference between the program clock frequency and the nominal clock frequency (measured against a reference which is not PCR derived, neither TS derived). The

45、format of the parameter PCR_DR should be in mHz/s ( 27 MHz) or ppm/hour. Purpose The measurement is designed to verify that the frequency drift, if any, of the program clock frequency is below the limits set by ITU-T Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 1. This limit is effective only for the low frequenc

46、y components of the variations as indicated by the demarcation frequency described in Appendix I. The tolerance as specified by ITU-T Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 is 75 mHz/s 27 MHz or 10 ppm/hour. Interface For example, at interface H in Figure I.8. Method Refer to Appendix I for a description

47、of a measurement method. 4.5 Program Clock Reference Overall Jitter (PCR_OJ) Definition PCR_OJ is defined as the instantaneous measurement of the high frequency components of the difference between when a PCR should have arrived at a measurement point (based upon previous PCR values, its own value a

48、nd a reference which is neither PCR- nor TS-derived) and when it did arrive. The format of the parameter PCR_OJ should be in nanoseconds. ITU-T Rec. J.133 (07/2002) 5 Purpose The PCR_OJ measurement is designed to account for all cumulative errors affecting the PCR values during program stream genera

49、tion, multiplexing, transmission, etc. All these effects appear as jitter at the receiver but they are a combination of PCR inaccuracies and jitter in the transmission. This value can be compared against the maximum error specification by ITU-T Rec. H.222.0 | ISO/IEC 13818-1 1 for PCR Accuracy of 500 ns only if the jitter in the transmission is assumed to be zero. Interface For example, at interface J in Figure I.8. Method Refer to Appendix I for a description of a measurement method. 4.6 Program Clock Reference A
