Internet-Draft          Statistics Summary Blocks              July 2012


1.  Introduction

   This draft defines three new block types to augment those defined in
   [RFC3611] for use in a range of RTP applications.

   The first two block types support the reporting of burst gap loss/
   discard, summary statistics including packet loss/discard proportion,
   mean and variance and belong to the class of transport layer metrics
   defined in [MONARCH].  These two blocks are intended to be used in
   conjunction with information from the Burst Gap Loss metric block or
   burst gap discard metric block, and on which these two block
   therefore depends.  However the metrics in the Burst Gap Loss block
   or burst gap discard block may be used independently of the metrics
   defined in the first two blocks.

   To form an accurate assessment of user quality of experience, it is
   therefore necessary to know not just overall rates of packet loss/
   discard, but also which frame type were affected.  The third block
   supports the reporting of detailed statistics for each frame type,
   including the number of received, lost and discarded of each frame
   type in the Group of Pictures and additional data allowing the
   calculation of statistical parameters (e.g.,the proportion of each
   frame type impaired by packet loss and discard).  The metrics defined
   in this block belong to the class of application layer metrics
   defined in [MONARCH].


2.  Terminology

2.1.  Standards Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].

   In addition, the following terms are defined:

   Picture Type

      Picture types used in the different video algorithms compose of
      the key-frame and the Derivation frame.  Key-frame is also called
      a reference frame and used as a reference for predicting other
      pictures.  It is coded without prediction from other pictures.
      The Derivation frame is derived from Key-frame using prediction
      from the reference frame.

3.  Transport Layer Metrics

3.1.  Burst/Gap Loss Summary Statistics Block

   The metrics described here are intended to be used as described in
   this section, in conjunction with information from the Measurement
   Information block [MEASIDENT] (which MUST be present in the same RTCP
   packet as the Burst/Gap Loss block) and also with the metric
   "cumulative number of packets lost" provided in standard RTCP
   [RFC3550].

   These metrics provide information relevant to statistical parameters,
   including burst loss rate, gap loss rate, burst duration mean, burst
   duration variance and are calculated using burst gap loss metrics
   defined in [BGLOSS] and other information which is sent together with
   this report block.

3.1.2.  Definition of Fields in Loss Summary Statistics Block

   Block Type (BT): 8 bits

      Burst/Gap Loss Summary Statistics Block is identified by the
      constant <BGLSS>.

   Interval Metric flag (I): 2 bits

      This field is used to indicate whether the Burst/Gap Loss Summary
      Statistics metrics are Sampled, Interval or Cumulative metrics,
      that is, whether the reported values applies to the most recent
      measurement interval duration between successive metrics reports
      (I=10) (the Interval Duration) or to the accumulation period
      characteristic of cumulative measurements (I=11) (the Cumulative
      Duration) or is a sampled instantaneous value (I=01) (Sampled
      Value).

   Reserved: 6 bits

      This field is reserved for future definition.  In the absence of
      such a definition, the bits in this field MUST be set to zero and
      MUST be ignored by the receiver.

   Block Length: 16 bits

      The constant 3, in accordance with the definition of this field in
      Section 3 of RFC 3611 [RFC3611].

   SSRC of Source: 32 bits

      As defined in Section 4.1 of RFC3611 [RFC3611].

   Burst Loss Rate: 16 bits

      The fraction of packets lost during bursts since the beginning of
      reception, expressed as a fixed point number with the binary point
      at the left edge of the field.  This value is calculated by
      dividing Packets Loss in Bursts by Total Packets expected in
      Bursts as follows:

      Packets Loss in Bursts / Total Packets expected in Bursts

   Gap Loss Rate: 16 bits

      The fraction of packets lost during gaps since the beginning of
      reception expressed as a fixed point number with the binary point
      at the left edge of the field.  This value is calculated by
      dividing the difference between number of packets lost and Packets
      lost in Bursts by the difference between Packets Expected and
      Total Packets expected in Bursts as follows:

      (number of packets lost - Packets Lost in Bursts) / (Packets
      Expected - Total Packets expected in Bursts)

      where "number of packets lost" is obtained from standard RTCP
      [RFC3550] and Packets Expected is calculated as the difference
      between "extended last sequence number" and "extended first
      sequence number" (Interval or Cumulative) provided in the
      Measurement Identity and Information block [MEASIDENT].

      Note that if the metric is to be calculated on an Interval basis,
      a difference must be taken between the current and preceding
      values of "cumulative number of packets lost" in RTCP, to obtain
      the "number of packets lost" for the reporting interval.

   Burst Duration Mean:16bits

      The mean burst duration is obtained as the quotient:

      mean = Sum of Burst Durations / Number of Bursts

      where " Sum of Burst Durations " and "Number of Bursts"is obtained
      from the RTCP XR Burst/Gap Loss Block [BGLOSS].

   Burst Duration Variance:16bits

      The variance of the burst duration is obtained using the standard
      result:

      var = ( Sum of Squares of Burst Durations - Number of Bursts *
      mean^2 ) / (Number of Bursts - 1)

      where " Sum of Squares of Burst Durations " and "Number of
      Bursts"is obtained from the RTCP XR Burst/Gap Loss Block [BGLOSS].


3.2.  Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics Block

   The metrics described here are intended to be used as described in
   this section, in conjunction with information from the Measurement
   Identity block [MEASIDENT] (which MUST be present in the same RTCP
   packet as the Burst/Gap Discard block) and also with the metric
   "number of packets discarded" provided in the RTCP XR Discard Block
   [DISCARD].  The RTCP XR Discard Block SHOULD be sent if the Burst/Gap
   Discard block is sent, but the converse does not apply.

   These metrics provide information relevant to statistical parameters,
   including burst discard rate, gap discard rate and are calculated
   using burst gap loss metrics defined in [BGDISCARD] and other
   information which is sent together with this report block.

3.2.2.  Definition of Fields in Discard Summary Statistics Block

   Block Type (BT): 8 bits

      Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics Block is identified by the
      constant <BGDSS>.

   Reserved: 8 bits

      This field is reserved for future definition.  In the absence of
      such a definition, the bits in this field MUST be set to zero and
      MUST be ignored by the receiver.

   Interval Metric flag (I): 2 bits

      This field is used to indicate whether the metrics block is an
      Interval or a Cumulative report,

   Reserved: 6 bits

      This field is used to indicate whether the Burst/Gap Discard
      Summary Statistics metrics are Sampled, Interval or Cumulative
      metrics, that is, whether the reported values applies to the most
      recent measurement interval duration between successive metrics
      reports (I=10) (the Interval Duration) or to the accumulation
      period characteristic of cumulative measurements (I=11) (the
      Cumulative Duration) or is a sampled instantaneous value (I=01)
      (Sampled Value).

   block length: 16 bits

      The constant 2, in accordance with the definition of this field in
      Section 3 of RFC 3611 [RFC3611].

   SSRC of Source: 32 bits

      As defined in Section 4.1 of RFC3611 [RFC3611].

   Burst Discard Rate: 16 bits

      The fraction of packets discarded during bursts since the
      beginning of reception, expressed as a fixed point number with the
      binary point at the left edge of the field.  This value is
      calculated by dividing Packets Discarded in Bursts by Total
      Packets expected in Bursts as follows:

      Packets Discarded in Bursts / Total Packets expected in Bursts

   Gap Discard Rate: 16 bits

      The fraction of packets discarded during gaps since the beginning
      of reception expressed as a fixed point number with the binary
      point at the left edge of the field.  This value is calculated by
      dividing the difference between number of packets discarded and
      Packets Discarded in Bursts by the difference between Packets
      Expected and Total Packets expected in Bursts as follows:

      (number of packets discarded - Packets Discarded in Bursts) /
      (Packets Expected - Total Packets expected in Bursts)

      where "number of packets discarded" is obtained from the RTCP XR
      Discard Block [DISCARD] and Packets Expected is calculated as the
      difference between "extended last sequence number" and "extended
      first sequence number" (Interval or Cumulative) provided in the
      Measurement Information block [MEASIDENT].

4.1.2.  Definition of Fields in Frame Impairment Summary Statistics
        Block

   Block type (BT): 8 bits

      Frame Impairment Statistics Summary Block is identified by the
      constant <FISS>.

   Picture type indicator (T): 1 bit

      Picture types used in the different video algorithms compose of
      key-frame and derivation frame.  This field is used to indicate
      the frame type to be reported.  Bits set to 0 if the lost_frames
      field or dup_frames field contain a key_frame report or reference
      frame report, 1 if the lost_frames field and dup_frames field
      contain other derivation frame report.  Note that if both the key
      frame report and derivation frame are sent, they should be sent in
      the same RTCP compound packet using two XR Blocks.

   Rsv.: 7 bits

      This field is reserved for future definition.  In the absence of
      such a definition, the bits in this field MUST be set to zero and
      MUST be ignored by the receiver.

      If one frame is partially lost, this frame is regarded as one lost
      fractional frame.  The lost_partial_frames is equivalent to the
      number of lost_partial_frames in the above sequence number
      interval.

5.  SDP Signaling

   [RFC3611] defines the use of SDP (Session Description Protocol)
   [RFC4566] for signaling the use of XR blocks.  XR blocks MAY be used
   without prior signaling.

   This section augments the SDP [RFC4566] attribute "rtcp-xr" defined
   in [RFC3611] by providing three additional value of "xr-format" to
   signal the use of the report block defined in this document.

        rtcp-xr-attrib =  "a=rtcp-xr:"
                          [xr-format *(SP xr-format)] CRLF
              xr-format =
                          / burst-gap-loss-stat
                          / burst-gap-discard-stat
                          / frame-impairment-stat


   Refer to Section 5.1 of RFC 3611 [RFC3611] for a detailed description
   and the full syntax of the "rtcp-xr" attribute.


6.  IANA Considerations

   New block types for RTCP XR are subject to IANA registration.  For
   general guidelines on IANA considerations for RTCP XR, refer
   to[RFC3611] .

6.1.  New RTCP XR Block Type values

   This document assigns three new block type value in the RTCP XR Block
   Type Registry:

         Name:       BGLSS
         Long Name:  Burst/Gap Loss Summsary Statistics Block
         Value       <BGLSS>
         Reference:  Section 5.1

         Name:       BGDSS
         Long Name:  Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics Block
         Value       <BGDSS>
         Reference:  Section 5.2

         Name:       FISS
         Long Name:  Frame Impairment Statistics Summary
         Value       <FISS>
         Reference:  Section 6.1
