  1. Real Time Video Over IP Mapping and transporting video over IP networks Steve Hard Sales Engineer shard@nevion.com Nevion Confidential

  2. Introduction • Transport of high quality real-time contribution video over IP networks • Goal is lower CAPEX and OPEX while maintaining quality and reliability and increasing flexibility • Discuss the challenges, trade-off and technologies to achieve this goal Nevion Confidential

  3. Moving from coax to IP video network Nevion Confidential

  4. Connectivity trends • Reliabilityof IP based services is improving • Bandwidthwillcontinue to increase • Price per Megabit is decreasing • Universal fibre coverage • Any-to-any services Nevion Confidential New opportunities for buildingcontribution video networks

  5. What is video over IP? • Many definitions: • Streaming video • IPTV • Primary distribution • Contribution • For broadcast professional video, it is • High quality video that is beyond the reach of the prosumer and consumer market • Not Streaming internet video like Youtube • Not “last mile” IPTV • Not IP as experienced in IT data networks contribution primary distribution sec. distribution Nevion Confidential

  6. Video over IP • Video over IP encompasses all video • In the Contribution and Primary Distribution space: • SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI • Uncompressed and Compressed Video • Unidirectional • Low latency • “Fire and Forget” • Need Forward Error Correction (FEC)? Nevion Confidential

  7. Who uses Professional Video over IP? • Anyone who has a need for scalable high quality video transport • Studios • Campus’s • Teleports • MSO’s • Telcos • Government agencies • Research Facilities • Telemedicine IP network Nevion Confidential

  8. Design factors • Is your system point-to-point or it is multicast? • Is there a back channel from the receiver to the transmitter? • Are the network connections relatively static or do they change often? • What level of control over the network do you have? Can you directly manage the network, or is it done with Service Level Agreements (SLAs)? • What is the error rate of the network? • What are bandwidth costs for the data and overhead that is required? Nevion Confidential

  9. Some commonly asked questions • Bandwidth • When you lease a circuit with a fixed bandwidth, you typically get the same rate in both directions • You can send video in both directions up to the limit of the service • Say you buy 100 Mbps • You can send video at 70 Mbps • You can also receive 70 Mbps of video on the same link Nevion Confidential

  10. Some commonly asked questions • Unicast • Video can be sent from one transmitter to one receiver. • There is only one video flow • Multicast • Video can be sent to multiple receivers • There is only one video flow from the transmitter • There are multiple flows to multiple receivers • Routers handle the request • Switches can to by using IGMP snooping Nevion Confidential

  11. Challenges of an IP network • Encapsulating The Video Data • Dealing With Packet Loss • Getting Video Across The Network • Protecting The Data • To Compress Or Not To Compress Nevion Confidential

  12. Encapsulating the video data • Challenges to solve • Break up video to get across network • Routing to get across network • Packet re-ordering • Detect packet corruption • Detect packet loss Nevion Confidential

  13. What are we trying to achieve? • Carry the video flow over IP packets: • MPEG packets into IP packets • Linear video into IP packets • J2K packets into IP packets • ....don’t forget the audio encode encapsulate transit decapsulate buffer decode Nevion Confidential

  17. Break up video to get across network • SMPTE 2022-2 • For MPEG-2 Transport Stream (TS) • 188 bytes TS packets • Up to 7 TS packets • Up to 1316 bytes (for 7 TS) • SMPTE 2022-6 • For uncompressed • 1376 bytes Nevion Confidential

  18. Why map via Transport Streams? • Widely used in all areas of video transport • Flexible formatting • Encapsulates data using well defined standards • Video : MPEG-2, H.264, JPEG 2000, Dirac … • Audio : MPEG-1/2, AAC, Dolby, AES … • Ancillary Data : Closed caption, aspect ratio, time code … • Data : IP/Ethernet, E1, T1, DS3, RS422, GPIO ... • Highly flexible • Multiplexing • Signal integrity monitoring • Protection switching • Encapsulates any data • ASI limit is 213Mbit/s, but TS over IP can run at higher speeds Nevion Confidential

  19. SMPTE 2022-2-2007 • Unidirectional transport of constant bit rate MPEG-2 transport streams (M2TS) over IP networks • Implies that video is compressed but can be anything • M2TS packets are packed into RTP/UDP/IP packets • RTP = Real Time Transport Protocol • Emphasis on real-time with error tolerance • UDP = User Datagram Protocol • Simple and connectionless (Fire and Forget) • IP = Internet Protocol • Suite of protocols for a variety of applications Ethernet MAC IP UDP RTP 1-7 TS or partial video line Nevion Confidential

  20. The Ethernet packet in transit Overhead: • 18 bytes for MAC • 20 bytes for IP • 8 bytes for UDP • 12 bytes for RTP • 28 bytes for FEC Ethernet MAC IP UDP RTP 1-7 TS or partial video line Payload: • 1 x TS packet = 188 (or 204) bytes • 7 x TS packets = 1316 bytes Nevion Confidential

  30. Challenges of an IP network • Encapsulating The Video Data • Dealing With Packet Loss • Getting Video Across The Network • Protecting The Data • To Compress Or Not To Compress Nevion Confidential

  31. Packet Loss • Sources of packet loss • Congestion in the network • Random Noise • Cuts to links • Equipment failure • Dealing with packet loss • Detecting packet corruption • Detecting packet loss • Regenerating lost information Nevion Confidential

  32. Packet corruption/loss • Detecting • Ethernet and UDP have check field • Corruptions -> Loss packet • RTP has sequence number • Regeneration • Do nothing • Forward Error Correction (FEC) • Retransmit missing packets • Next generation IP solutions Nevion Confidential

  34. Forward Error Correction • Video transmission via RTP/UDP/IP is best effort • Packets can get lost • One solution is to sent additional packets to aid in recovery • The problem becomes one of • Video input rate • Network Performance • Available Bandwidth • Desired packet recovery performance Nevion Confidential

  35.

  36. SMPTE 2022-1-2007 : FEC Matrix • M2TS packets in the RTP payload are concatenated and ordered in a two dimensional array with LxD dimension. • Allowable range of values are: • L×D ≤ 100 • 1 ≤ L ≤ 20 • 4 ≤ D ≤ 20 Column, L (1,1) (2,1) (L,1) (1,2) (2,2) ROW, D (1,D) (L,D) Payload Nevion Confidential

  42. Transport - IP • FEC for IPLR attenuation generates significant overhead anywhere up to 50% • Question to ask is: “Is FEC a requirement in contribution networks?” • IP networks are usually carefully managed • If packets are being lost, then corrective action is required • FEC then is an insurance against the unknown Nevion Confidential

  43. FEC • Trade-offs • Overhead • Latency • Recovery ability • Design complexity -> Cost • Advantages • Lossy network • Multi-cast • No reverse channel available • Deterministic overhead Nevion Confidential

  44. Transport - IP • Bigger issue is network variances causing packet delay variation or packet jitter • Direct effect on timing recovery of the transport stream • Can be solved by buffering • However, buffering increases delay • Need to understand how jitter can be managed vs recovery of timing Nevion Confidential

  45. Retransmit missing packets • Advantages • Higher error recovery • Disadvantages • Requires reverse channel • Point-to-point connections • Variable overhead • High latency • No standards – Proprietary solutions Nevion Confidential
