Internet-Draft Summary Stats XR Blocks January 2013
1. Introduction
1.1. Summary Statistics Metrics
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-related end
system metrics defined in [RFC6792]. These two blocks are intended
to be used in conjunction with information from the Burst Gap Loss
Metrics Block or Burst Gap Discard Metrics Block, and on which these
two block therefore depend. The metrics in the Burst Gap Loss block
or Burst Gap Discard Metrics Block can be used independently of the
metrics defined in the first two blocks.
The third block supports the reporting of detailed statistics for
each frame type, including the number of frames received, lost and
discarded of each frame type in the Group of Pictures (GOP) 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 [RFC6792].
1.2. RTCP and RTCP XR Reports
The use of RTCP for reporting is defined in [RFC3550]. [RFC3611]
defined an extensible structure for reporting using an RTCP Extended
Report (XR). This document defines a new Extended Report block for
use with [RFC3550] and [RFC3611].
1.3. Performance Metrics Framework
The RTP Monitoring Architectures [RFC6792] provides guideline for
reporting block format using RTCP XR. Metrics described in this
draft are in accordance with the guidelines in [RFC6792].
1.4. Applicability
These metrics are applicable to a wide range of RTP applications and
reflect transient IP problems that affect user experience. They can
be used to form an accurate assessment of users' quality of
experience and influence sender strategies to mitigate the problem.

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 are composed
of the Key frame and Derived frames. The 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.
Derived frames are derived from a Key frame using a prediction
algorithm.
3. Transport Related End System Metrics
3.1. Burst/Gap Loss Summary Statistics Metrics Block
The metrics described here are intended to be used as described in
this section, in conjunction with information from the Measurement
Information block [RFC6776] (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]. Instances of this Metrics Block refer by Synchronization
source (SSRC) to the separate auxiliary Measurement Information block
[RFC6776] which describes measurement periods in use (see [RFC6776]
section 4.2). This Metrics Block relies on the measurement period in
the Measurement Information block indicating the span of the report
and SHOULD be sent in the same compound RTCP packet as the
measurement information block. If the measurement period is not
received in the same compound RTCP packet as this Metrics Block, this
metrics block MUST be discarded.
The metrics carried in this Metrics Block provide information
relevant to statistical parameters, including burst loss rate, gap
loss rate, burst duration mean, burst duration variance and are
calculated at the receiving end of the RTP stream 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:
I=10: Interval Duration - the reported value applies to the
most recent measurement interval duration between successive
metrics reports.
I=11: Cumulative Duration - the reported value applies to the
accumulation period characteristic of cumulative measurements.
I=01: Sampled Value - the reported value is a sampled
instantaneous value.
In this document, the value I=00 is the reserved value and MUST
NOT be used.
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
SHOULD be ignored by the receiver (See RFC6709 section 4.2).
Block Length: 16 bits
The constant 3, in accordance with the definition of this field in
Section 3 of RFC 3611 [RFC3611].
Zorn, et al. Expires July 20, 2013 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Summary Stats XR Blocks January 2013
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 [RFC6776].
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].
Zorn, et al. Expires July 20, 2013 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Summary Stats XR Blocks January 2013
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 Metrics Block
The metrics described here are intended to be used as described in
this section, in conjunction with information from the Measurement
Identity block [RFC6776] (which MUST be present in the same RTCP
packet as the Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics block) .
These metrics provide information relevant to statistical parameters,
including burst discard rate, gap discard rate and are calculated at
the receiving end of the RTP stream using burst gap discard metrics
defined in [BGDISCARD] and other information which is sent together
with this report block.
Instances of this Metrics Block refer by Synchronization source
(SSRC) to the separate auxiliary Measurement Information block
[RFC6776] which describes measurement periods in use (see [RFC6776]
section 4.2). This metrics block relies on the measurement period in
the Measurement Information block indicating the span of the report
and SHOULD be sent in the same compound RTCP packet as the
measurement information block. If the measurement period is not
received in the same compound RTCP packet as this Metrics Block, this
Metrics Block MUST be discarded.

3.2.2. Definition of Fields in Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics
Block
Block Type (BT): 8 bits
Burst/Gap Discard Summary Statistics Block is identified by the
constant <BGDSS>.
Interval Metric Flag (I): 2 bits
This field is used to indicate whether the Burst/Gap Discard
Summary Statistics metrics are Sampled, Interval or Cumulative
metrics:
I=10: Interval Duration - the reported value applies to the
most recent measurement interval duration between successive
metrics reports.
I=11: Cumulative Duration - the reported value applies to the
accumulation period characteristic of cumulative measurements.
I=01: Sampled Value - the reported value is a sampled
instantaneous value.
In this document, the value I=00 is the reserved value and MUST
NOT be used.
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
SHOULD be ignored by the receiver (See RFC6709 section 4.2).
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:
Zorn, et al. Expires July 20, 2013 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft Summary Stats XR Blocks January 2013
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 Count Block [DISCARD] and filled with the sum of packets
discarded due to early arrival (DT=1) and packets discarded due to
late arrival(DT=2) 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 [RFC6776]. In order for the Burst/
Gap Discard Summary Statistics Block to be meaningful, 2 instances
of the Discard Count block with DT=1 and DT=2 MUST be included in
the same RTCP XR packet as the Burst/Gap Discard Summary
Statistics Block.
4. Application Level Metrics
4.1. Frame Impairment Statistics Summary Metrics Block
This block reports statistics on which frame type were affected
beyond the information carried in the Statistics Summary Report Block
RTCP packet specified in the section 4.6 of RFC 3611 [RFC3611].
Information is measured at the receiving end of the RTP stream and
recorded about the number of frames received, lost frames, duplicated
frames and lost partial frames. Such information can be useful for
network management and video quality monitoring.

5. SDP Signaling
RFC 3611 defines the use of SDP (Session Description Protocol)
[RFC4566] for signaling the use of XR blocks. However XR blocks MAY
be used without prior signaling (see section 5 of RFC3611).
5.1. SDP rtcp-xr-attrib Attribute Extension
This section augments the SDP [RFC4566] attribute "rtcp-xr" defined
in Section 5.1 of RFC 3611 by providing three additional values of
"xr-format" to signal the use of the report block defined in this
document.
xr-format = / burst-gap-loss-stat
/ burst-gap-discard-stat
/ frame-impairment-stat
Burst-gap-loss-stat ="burst gap loss summary statistics"
Burst-gap-discard-stat="burst gap discard summary statistics"
Frame-impairment-stat="frame impairment summary statistics"
5.2. Offer/Answer Usage
When SDP is used in offer-answer context, the SDP Offer/Answer usage
defined in [RFC3611] for unilateral "rtcp-xr" attribute parameters
applies. For detailed usage of Offer/Answer for unilateral
parameter, refer to section 5.2 of [RFC3611].
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 RFC
3611.
6.1. New RTCP XR Block Type values
