ITU-T Q.3925 (03/2012) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, in

10、formation 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 standardizing telecommunications on a

11、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 covered by the procedure laid down

12、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 indicate both a telecommunication ad

13、ministration 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 achieved when all of these mandatory p

14、rovisions 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 PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attenti

21、n model networks 1 Scope The Q.39xx-series of Recommendations relates to testing methods and specifications for model networks. The model network concept was created in 2006 due to the complexity of next generation network (NGN) equipment over digital networks, the unlimited services set in principl

22、e, the level of guaranteed quality of service (QoS) for separated QoS classes, and so on. The global interoperability concept was also created as a next step in testing methodology. Global interoperability includes the interoperability of technical means, of services, and of QoS classes and paramete

23、rs. The modern type of traffic is required to realize the testing of global interoperability on the model network. In general, voice traffic flow has been digital network traffic flow. Over a long period of time, voice traffic flow characteristics were obtained in the real networks and these charact

24、eristics are standardized in ITU-T Q.543, in accordance with statistical data. The NGN traffic contains voice traffic, data traffic, and video traffic. As a rule, data and video traffic have different characteristics than voice traffic in the circuit switched network. Data and video traffic in the N

25、GN are self-similar. Consequently, the new methods for traffic generation and modelling should be used in the testing procedure for global interoperability. This Recommendation describes the voice, data, and video traffic flow characteristics which should be generated for testing global interoperabi

26、lity parameters on the model network. Traffic characteristics of the ubiquitous sensor network (USN) are also described in this Recommendation. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of thi

32、n networks 6.1 Poisson traffic The voice traffic arrival process for circuit switched public telecommunication networks is the Poisson process based on long-term observation. The fundamental properties of the Poisson process are stationary, independent at all time instants (epochs), and simple. The

33、following two most important Poisson process properties could be considered b-Iversen: the number of events within a time interval of fixed length is Poisson distributed, the time distance between consecutive events is exponentially distributed. The Poisson flow is fully determined by its own parame

34、ter. The Poisson arrival process is adequate for submission of other arrival processes, for example the dial-up Internet access arrival process b-Iversen. 6.2 Self-similar traffic Both the data and video traffic creating the new types of arrival traffic flows in NGNs are self-similar traffic flows.

35、The arrival traffic process is considered as self-similar if the distribution function for the original and the aggregated processes are equal. The aggregated arrival process is created by the averaging of the original process in m size series blocks (the block is part of the original process) b-Wil

36、linger. The most important feature of the self-similar arrival process is the Hurst parameter b-Sheluhin. Knowledge of the Hurst parameter value gives the possibility to generate the self-similar flow with specified characteristics. The Hurst parameter, H, could be determined as follows: )()()1(2)(X

37、DmXDHm = Where )()(mXD is the aggregated flow variance and D(X) is the original flow variance. Rec. ITU-T Q.3925 (03/2012) 3 The next equation is frequently used: )ln()22()()(ln)(mHXDXDm=The expression (2H2) is a next geometrical sense. This is the line slope coefficient. This line is approximated b

38、y the following function: ()ln()()(ln)(mfXDXDm=7 Voice traffic flow characteristics 7.1 Voice traffic flow characteristics in accordance with Recommendation ITU-T Q.543 The originating voice traffic flow characteristics are shown in Table 1, based on Table 1a of ITU-T Q.543. The originating traffic

39、flow for ISDN subscribers is not considered since there are significantly fewer ISDN subscribers than PSTN subscribers. The intensity of traffic flow in Erlangs and busy hour call attempts (BHCA) are shown in Table 1 for normal level load type A. For testing the QoS parameters on the model network f

40、or overload conditions, the values from Table 1 should be increased up to 25% in Erlangs and 35% in busy hour call attempts (level load type B), in accordance with clause 2.1.2.2 of ITU-T Q.543. Table 1 Originating voice traffic flow characteristics Traffic flow class Flow type Average traffic inten

41、sity (Erlang) Average number of busy hour call attempts (BHCA) 1 Poisson 0.03 1.22 Poisson 0.06 2.4 3 Poisson 0.10 4 4 Poisson 0.17 6.8 The superposition of traffic flow classes should be used during testing on the model network. The superposition of N independent Poisson processes will be the Poiss

42、on process in accordance with the Poisson superposition theorem b-Iversen. The shares of traffic flow classes in the superposition flow are determined by the concrete characteristics of the network or network part which should be tested. If the incoming traffic flow should be generated, its characte

43、ristics are to be taken as for originating traffic. 7.2 Voice traffic flow features in NGNs The voice traffic flow features in NGNs are determined by the voice traffic transfer over IP Protocols (VoIP). The VoIP user share is constantly increased, but the voice traffic characteristics from Table 1a

44、of ITU-T Q.543 are very stable and could be used for VoIP average traffic intensity and the average number of busy hour call attempts (BHCA). The statistical observation of VoIP traffic flows on the real networks proved that the arriving VoIP traffic flow could be described by the Poisson process. F

45、urthermore, the Poisson traffic flow model could be used for VoIP traffic, even for all-IP networks b-Birke. 4 Rec. ITU-T Q.3925 (03/2012) The silence suppression methods could be used during VoIP traffic processing. Methods used in ITU-T P.59 can be considered for the VoIP traffic generation for th

46、e model network. The talk-spurt duration and pause duration submit the exponential distribution in accordance with ITU-T P.59. In conversation, the pause share duration is 61.47% and the mutual silence share duration is 22.48%. 8 Data traffic flow characteristics 8.1 “www“ traffic flow characteristi

47、cs The “www“ traffic is self-similar with the Hurst parameter H = 0.7-0.9 b-Crovella and b-Ho. 8.2 File transfer traffic flow characteristics File transfer traffic is self-similar with the Hurst parameter H = 0.85-0.95 b-Norros and b-Jena. 8.3 E-mail traffic flow characteristics E-mail traffic is se

48、lf-similar with the Hurst parameter H = 0.75 b-Ho. 8.4 Peer-to-peer traffic flow characteristic Peer-to-peer traffic is self-similar. The Skype traffic as P2P traffic example is self-similar with H = 0.6 for inter-arrival time and H = 0.7 for packet lengths b-Markovich. 9 Video traffic flow characte

49、ristic The IPTV traffic flow statistical observation proved that the traffic flows are self-similar both for multicast and unicast traffic b-Janevski, b-Tarasov and b-Mellia. The Hurst parameter values are H = 0.55-0.6 for multicast traffic and H = 0.75-0.8 for unicast traffic. The traffic flow characteristics for video traffic generation on the model network are shown in Table 2. Table 2 IPTV traffic flow characteristics Traffic types Flow types H values Multicast Se
