<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-1.1" href="#section-1.1">1.1</a>. MPEG2 Transport Stream Decodability Metrics</span>
The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has
defined a set of syntax and information consistency tests and
corresponding indicators [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] that are recommended for the
monitoring of MPEG2 Transport Streams [<a href="#ref-ISO-IEC.13818-1.2007">ISO-IEC.13818-1.2007</a>]. The
tests and corresponding indicators are grouped according to priority:
First priority: Necessary for decodability (basic monitoring)
Second priority: Recommended for continuous or periodic monitoring
Third priority: Recommended for application-dependent monitoring
This memo defines a new block type for use with MPEG2 Transport
Streams [<a href="#ref-ISO-IEC.13818-1.2007">ISO-IEC.13818-1.2007</a>] to augment those defined in [<a href="./rfc3611" title=""RTP Control Protocol Extended Reports (RTCP XR)"">RFC3611</a>].
The new block type supports reporting of the number of occurrences of
each Program Specific Information (PSI) indicator in the first and
second priorities listed in Sections <a href="#section-5.2.1">5.2.1</a> and <a href="#section-5.2.2">5.2.2</a>, respectively,
of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>]. The third priority indicators are not supported. The
metrics defined here supplement information from the PSI-Independent
Decodability Statistics Metrics Block [<a href="./rfc6990" title=""RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) Extended Report (XR) Block for MPEG2 Transport Stream (TS) Program Specific Information (PSI) Independent Decodability Statistics Metrics reporting"">RFC6990</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-1.2" href="#section-1.2">1.2</a>. RTCP and RTCP XR Reports</span>
The use of RTCP for reporting is defined in [<a href="./rfc3550" title=""RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications"">RFC3550</a>]. [<a href="./rfc3611" title=""RTP Control Protocol Extended Reports (RTCP XR)"">RFC3611</a>]
defines an extensible structure for reporting using an RTCP Extended
Report (XR). This document defines a new Extended Report block for
use with [<a href="./rfc3550" title=""RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications"">RFC3550</a>] and [<a href="./rfc3611" title=""RTP Control Protocol Extended Reports (RTCP XR)"">RFC3611</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-1.3" href="#section-1.3">1.3</a>. Performance Metrics Framework</span>
The Performance Metrics Framework [<a href="./rfc6390" title=""Guidelines for Considering New Performance Metric Development"">RFC6390</a>] provides guidance on the
definition and specification of performance metrics. The RTP
Monitoring Architectures [<a href="./rfc6792" title=""Guidelines for Use of the RTP Monitoring Framework"">RFC6792</a>] provides guidelines for RTCP XR
block formats. The new report block described in this memo is in
compliance with the monitoring architecture specified in [<a href="./rfc6792" title=""Guidelines for Use of the RTP Monitoring Framework"">RFC6792</a>]
and the Performance Metrics Framework [<a href="./rfc6390" title=""Guidelines for Considering New Performance Metric Development"">RFC6390</a>].
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-1.4" href="#section-1.4">1.4</a>. Applicability</span>
These metrics are applicable to any type of RTP application that uses
the MPEG2 TS standard format for multimedia data, for example, MPEG4
over MPEG2 TS over RTP. This new block type can be useful for
measuring content stream or TS quality by checking TS header
information [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] and identifying the existence (and characterizing

the severity) of bitstream packetization problems that may affect
users' perception of a service delivered over RTP. It may also be
useful for verifying the continued correct operation of an existing
system management tool.

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 <a href="./rfc2119">RFC 2119</a> [<a href="./rfc2119" title=""Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels"">RFC2119</a>].
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. MPEG2 TS PSI Decodability Statistics Metrics Block</span>
ETSI TR 101 290 [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] generally defines indicators related to error
events whereas the XR block defined in this document contains counts
of occurrences of the [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] indicators. The block defined in this
document reports MPEG2 TS PSI decodability statistics metrics beyond
the information carried in the standard RTCP packet format and PSI-
Independent Decodability Statistics Metrics Block [<a href="./rfc6990" title=""RTP Control Protocol (RTCP) Extended Report (XR) Block for MPEG2 Transport Stream (TS) Program Specific Information (PSI) Independent Decodability Statistics Metrics reporting"">RFC6990</a>], which
are measured at the receiving end of the RTP stream. It contains
counts of seven metrics defined in ETSI TR 101 290 [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
Information is reported about basic monitoring parameters necessary
to ensure that the TS can be decoded, including:
o Program Association Table (PAT) errors
o PAT2 errors
o Program Map Table (PMT) errors
o PMT2 errors
o Packet Identifier (PID) errors
Information is also reported about continuous monitoring parameters
necessary to ensure continuous decoding, including:
o Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) errors
o Conditional Access Table (CAT) errors
In these parameters, PAT2 errors and PMT2 errors are actually
replacements for and improvements on PAT errors and PMT errors,
respectively, and are therefore preferred in future implementations.
In addition, measurement results for some of these parameters (e.g.,
PAT errors or PMT errors) may be different based on whether

scrambling is employed. The other parameters defined in Section 5 of
[<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] are ignored since they do not apply to all MPEG2
implementations. For further detailed information on these
parameters, see [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].

block type (BT): 8 bits
The MPEG2 TS PSI Decodability Metrics Block is identified by the
constant 32;.
Reserved: 8 bits
These bits are reserved. They MUST be set to zero by senders
ignored by receivers (see <a href="./rfc6709#section-4.2">Section 4.2 of [RFC6709]</a>).
block length: 16 bits
The constant 6, in accordance with the definition of this field in
<a href="./rfc3611#section-3">Section 3 of [RFC3611]</a>. The block MUST be discarded if the block
length is set to a different value.
Synchronization Source (SSRC) of source: 32 bits
As defined in <a href="./rfc3611#section-4.1">Section 4.1 of [RFC3611]</a>.

end_seq: 16 bits
As defined in <a href="./rfc3611#section-4.1">Section 4.1 of [RFC3611]</a>.
PAT_error_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of PAT errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. The Program Association Table (PAT) is
the only packet with Packet Identifier (PID) 0x0000. A PAT error
occurs when (1) a packet with PID 0x0000 does not occur at least
every 0.5 seconds, (2) a packet with PID 0x0000 does not contain
table_id 0x00 (i.e., a PAT), or (3) the Scrambling_control_field
in the TS packet header is not 00 for a packet with PID 0x0000.
See Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>]. Every program within the MPEG TS
stream is listed in the PAT; if it is missing, then no programs
can be decoded.
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported. NOTE 1 of
the table in Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] recommends using
PAT_error_2_count. Upon reception, if PAT_error_2_count is
available (that is, other than 0xFFFF), then receivers MUST ignore
PAT_error_count.
PAT_error_2_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of PAT2 errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A PAT2 error occurs when (1) a packet
with PID 0x0000 containing table_id 0x00 does not occur at least
every 0.5 seconds, (2) a packet with PID 0x0000 contains a table
with a table_id other than 0x00, or (3) the
Scrambling_control_field in the TS packet header is not 00 for a
packet with PID 0x0000. See Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported.
PMT_error_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of PMT errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A PMT_error occurs when (1) a packet
containing a table with table_id 0x02 (i.e., a PMT) does not occur
at least every 0.5 seconds on the PID that is referred to in the
PAT or (2) the Scrambling_control_field in the TS packet header is
not 00 for all packets with PID containing a table with table_id
0x02 (i.e., a PMT). See Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc7380">RFC 7380</a> RTCP XR TS Decodability November 2014</span>
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported. NOTE 2 of the
table in Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>] recommends using
PMT_error_2_count. Upon reception, if PMT_error_2_count is
available (that is, other than 0xFFFF), then receivers MUST ignore
PMT_error_count.
PMT_error_2_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of PMT2 errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A PMT2_error occurs when (1) a packet
containing table_id 0x02 (i.e., a PMT) does not occur at least
every 0.5 seconds on each program_map_PID that is referred to in
the PAT or (2) the Scrambling_control_field in the TS packet
header is not 00 for all packets containing a table with table_id
0x02 (i.e., a PMT) on each program_map_PID that is referred to in
the PAT. See Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported.
PID_error_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of PID errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A PID error occurs when no data stream
is present corresponding to a given PID. This may be caused by
multiplexing or demultiplexing, then remultiplexing. See
Section 5.2.1 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported.
CRC_error_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of CRC errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A CRC_error occurs if data corruption
occurred in any of the following tables -- CAT, PAT, PMT, Network
Information Table (NIT), Event Information Table (EIT), Bouquet
Association Table (BAT), Service Description Table (SDT), or Time
Offset Table (TOT), as defined in Section 5.2.2 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported.

CAT_error_count: 16 bits
A count of the number of CAT errors that occurred in the above
sequence number interval. A CAT_error occurs when (1) a packet
with PID 0x0001 contains a table with a table_id other than 0x01
(i.e., not a CAT) or (2) a packet does not contain a table with
table_id = 0x01 (i.e., a CAT) when scrambling is employed (i.e.,
the Scrambling_control_field is set as a value other than 00).
See Section 5.2.2 of [<a href="#ref-ETSI" title=""Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB); Measurement guidelines for DVB systems"">ETSI</a>].
The measured value is an unsigned value. If the measurement is
unavailable, then the value 0xFFFF MUST be reported.
