Internet-Draft        RTP Payload Fromat for Raptor         October 2011


1.  Introduction

   The FEC Framework [I-D.ietf-fecframe-framework] defines a general
   framework for the use of Forward Error Correction in association with
   arbitrary packet flows, including flows over UDP and RTP [RFC3550].
   Forward Error Correction operates by generating redundant data
   packets ("repair data") which can be sent independently from the
   original flow.  At a receiver the original flow can be reconstructed
   provided a sufficient set of redundant data packets and possibly
   original data packets are received.

   The FEC Framework provides for independence between application
   protocols and FEC codes.  The use of a particular FEC code within the
   framework is defined by means of a FEC Scheme which MAY then be used
   with any application protocol compliant to the framework.

   Repair data flows MAY be sent directly over a transport protocol such
   as UDP, or they MAY be encapsulated within specialized transports for
   multimedia, such as RTP.

   This document defines the RTP Payload Format for the Raptor FEC
   Schemes defined in [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor].

Internet-Draft        RTP Payload Fromat for Raptor         October 2011


3.  Media Format Background

   The Raptor and RaptorQ codes are efficient block-based fountain
   codes, meaning that from any group of source packets (or 'source
   block') an arbitrary number of repair packets MAY be generated.  The
   Raptor and RaptorQ codes have the property that the original group of
   source symbols can be recovered with very high probability from any
   set of symbols (source and repair) only slightly greater in number
   than the original number of source symbols.  The RaptorQ code
   additionally has the property that the probability that the original
   group of source symbols can be recovered from a set of symbols
   (source and repair) equal in number to the original number of source
   symbols is in many cases also very high.

   [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor] defines six FEC Schemes for the use of the
   Raptor and RaptorQ codes with arbitary packet flows: the first two
   schemes are fully applicable to arbitary packet flows (using Raptor
   and RaptorQ respectively).  The third and fourth schemes are slightly
   optimised versions of the first two schemes which are applicable in
   applications with relatively small block sizes.  The fifth and sixth
   schemes are variants of the third and fourth schemes which are
   applicable to a single source flow which already has some kind of
   identifiable sequence number.  The presence of a sequence number in
   the source flow allows for backwards-compatible operation (the source
   flows do not need to be modified in order to apply FEC).  In this
   case, in the language of the FEC Framework, there is no need for an
   explicit FEC Source Payload Id and it is therefore not included in
   the packets.

   This document specifcies the payload format for RTP repair flows and
   can be used with any of the FEC Schemes defined in
   [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor].

4.  Payload Format

4.1.  RTP Header Usage

   The following rules SHALL be followed for the RTP header used with
   FEC repair packets:

   o  Marker bit: The marker bit SHALL be set 1 for the last protection
      RTP packet sent for each source block, and otherwise set to 0.

   o  Timestamp: The timestamp SHALL be set to a time corresponding to
      the packet's transmission time.  The timestamp value has no use in
      the actual FEC protection process.  It MAY be used for packet
      arrival timing and jitter calculations.  The timestamp rate SHALL
      be specified using the "rate" media type parameter defined below.

   Other header fields SHALL be set according to the rules of [RFC3550].

4.2.  Payload Header

   There is no Payload Header in this Payload Format.

4.3.  Payload Data

   Procedures and data formats for the use of Raptor Forward Error
   Correction in a FECFRAME context are fully defined in
   [I-D.ietf-fecframe-framework] and [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor] and are
   not duplicated here.  The procedures of those documents SHALL be
   followed in order to generate repair data streams to be carried by
   the payload formats defined in this document.

   The RTP Payload SHALL contain a FEC Repair Payload as defined in
   [I-D.ietf-fecframe-framework] and [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor].

7.  Mapping to SDP

   Applications that are using RTP transport commonly use Session
   Description Protocol (SDP) [RFC4566] to describe their RTP sessions.
   The information that is used to specify the media types in an RTP
   session has specific mappings to the fields in an SDP description.
   Note that if an application does not use SDP to describe the RTP
   sessions, an appropriate mapping must be defined and used to specify
   the media types and their parameters for the control/description
   protocol employed by the application.

   The mapping of the above defined payload format media type and its
   parameters SHALL be done according to Section 3 of [RFC4855]
   following the suggestion therein regarding the mapping of payload-
   format-specific parameters into the ""a=fmtp"" field.

   When the RTP Payload Formats defined in this document are used, the
   Media Type Parameters defined above SHALL be used to specify the FEC
   Framework Configuration Information in preference to the SDP
   attributes specified in [I-D.ietf-fecframe-sdp-elements]

8.  Offer/Answer considerations

   When offering Raptor FEC over RTP using SDP in an Offer/Answer model
   [RFC3264], the following considerations apply:

   o  Each combination of the Kmax and T parameters produces different
      FEC data and is not compatible with any other combination.  A
      sender application MAY desire to offer multiple offers with
      different sets of Kmax and T values as long as the parameter
      values are valid.  The receiver SHOULD normally choose the offer
      with the largest value of the product of Kmax and T that it
      supports.

   o  The size of the repair-window is related to the maximum delay
      between the transmission of a source packet and the associated
      repair packet.  This directly impacts the buffering requirement on
      the receiver side and the receiver must consider this when
      choosing an offer.

   o  When the P parameter is omitted, FEC Payload ID Format A MUST be
      assumed.  In an answer which selects an offer in which the P
      parameter was omitted, the P parameter MUST either be omitted, or
      included with value "A".

9.  Declarative SDP Considerations

   In declarative usage, like SDP in the Real-time Streaming Protocol
   (RTSP) [RFC2326] or the Session Announcement Protocol (SAP)
   [RFC2974], the following considerations apply:

   o  The payload format configuration parameters are all declarative
      and a participant MUST use the configuration that is provided for
      the session.

   o  More than one configuration MAY be provided (if desired) by
      declaring multiple RTP payload types.  In that case, the receivers
      should choose the repair flow that is best for them.

10.  IANA Considerations

   This memo requests that IANA registers application/raptorfec as
   specified in Section 6.1.1, video/raptorfec as specified in
   Section 6.2.1, audio/raptorfec as specified in Section 6.3.1 and
   text/raptorfec as specified in Section 6.4.1.  The media type is also
   requested to be added to the IANA registry for "RTP Payload Format
   MIME types" (http://www.iana.org/assignments/rtp-parameters).

11.  Security Considerations

   Security Considerations related to the use of the FEC Framework are
   addressed in [I-D.ietf-fecframe-framework].  These consideration
   apply in full to users of the RTP Payload Formats defined in this
   document, since these are defined in terms of the FEC Framework.

   No further security considerations related specifically to the Raptor
   FEC Schemes defined in [I-D.ietf-fecframe-raptor] have been
   identified.

   RTP packets using the payload format defined in this specification
   are subject to the security considerations discussed in the RTP
   specification [RFC3550] and in any applicable RTP profile.  The main
   security considerations for the RTP packet carrying the RTP payload
   format defined within this memo are confidentiality, integrity and
   source authenticity.  Confidentiality is achieved by encrypting the
   RTP payload.  Integrity of the RTP packets is achieved through a
   suitable cryptographic integrity protection mechanism.  Such a
   cryptographic system MAY also allow the authentication of the source
   of the payload.  A suitable security mechanism for this RTP payload
   format should provide confidentiality, integrity protection, and at
   least source authentication capable of determining if an RTP packet
   is from a member of the RTP session.  Note that the appropriate
   mechanism to provide security to RTP and payloads following this memo
   MAY vary.  It is dependent on the application, transport and
   signaling protocol employed.  Therefore, a single mechanism is not
   sufficient, although if suitable, using the Secure Real-time
   Transport Protocol (SRTP) [RFC3711] is RECOMMENDED.  Other mechanisms
   that MAY be used are IPsec [RFC4301] and Transport Layer Security
   (TLS) [RFC5246] (RTP over TCP); other alternatives MAY exist.
