  1. Streaming Media Protocols Jani Hautakorpi Henry Pohan

  2. Contents • Protocols and languages – Overview • Session control – RTSP and SIP • Media description – SDP • Media transportation – RTP • 3GPP Packet-Switched Streaming Service (PSS) • Protocols in 3GPP PSS • 3GPP PSS Domain Architecture & Framework • 3GPP PSS Release 6 extensions • Summary T-110.456

  3. Protocols and Languages – Overview Session control • RTSP • SIP • H.323 • SAP • WSP • Media descrip. • SDP • SMIL • CC/PP • Media transpor. • RTP • HTTP T-110.456

  4. Session Control – RTSP (1/2) • Real-Time Streaming control Protocol • Used in streaming communication • Transaction-oriented, request-response protocol • Text-based, data is carried out-of-band • Messages can contain a message body • Example methods: play, forward, rewind, pause, … • Current development: Usage with NATs, key management extension. T-110.456

  5. Session Control – RTSP (2/2) Server Client Has SDP SETUP 200 OK PLAY 200 OK Media TEARDOWN 200 OK T-110.456

  6. Session Control – SIP (1/2) • Session Initiation Protocol • Mostly used with conversational media (preliminary discussion on the use with streaming media) • Very popular protocol (used e.g. in IMS) • Very similar to RTSP (text-based, request-response, data out-of-band) • Current development: Security and privacy extension, integration with QoS mechanisms, … T-110.456

  7. Session Control – SIP (2/2) Responder Initiator INVITE 180 Ringing 200 OK ACK Media BYE 200 OK T-110.456

  8. Media Description – SDP (1/2) • Session Description Protocol • Widely deployed • Carried as a payload of session control protocol • Text-based • Capability negotiation (offer/answer model) • Current development: Offer/answer model, exchange of encryption keys, SDPng, … T-110.456

  10. Media Transportation – RTP • Real-time Transport Protocol • Dominant streaming media transport protocol • Runs usually on top of UDP • Accompanied with RTCP • Binary protocol • Can also transport encrypted media T-110.456

  11. Packet-Switched Streaming Service (PSS) • PSS – an umbrella standard (IETF, 3GPP, W3C, MPEG, ITU) • Signaling and control protocols (RTSP and SDP from IETF) • Transport protocols (RTP, RTCP, and various payload formats from IETF) • Audio codecs (AMR and AMR-WB from 3GPP, AAC from MPEG-4) • Visual codecs (H.263 from ITU, Simple Visual Profile from MPEG-4) • File format (MP4 file format from MPEG-4 Systems) • Scene description (SMIL from W3C) • 3GPP PSS Versions: • Release 4 – 1st version, Q1 2001 • Release 5 – Q2 2002 • Release 6 – Q3 2004 T-110.456

  12. 3GPP PSS – Protocols T-110.456

  13. 3GPP PSS – Protocol Stack T-110.456

  14. 3GPP PSS – Domain Architecture • Streaming Client & Content Server • main component • Proxy Server • provide QoS streaming service • User and Profile Servers • keep user preferences and device capabilities • Content Cache (optional) • for improving overall service quality • Portals • servers for convenient access to streamed media content • SGSN • gateway betwen user equipments within its serving area (UEs) • GGSN • gateway between UMTS core network and internet (IP-PDN) T-110.456

  15. 3GPP PSS – Domain Architecture (cont.) Gi Internet Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Proxy T-110.456

  18. 3GPP PSS Release 6 Some Extensions • 3GPP file format: • General profile • Progressive-download profile • Streaming server profile • DRM for Streaming • Based on OMA DRM 2.0 • Quality of experience • At the end of the session end user experience is reported back to the server • Metrics: rebuffering duration, initial buffering duration, successive loss of RTP packets. • Adaptive Streaming • Adaptation of transmission and content rates to the available network resources • Avoid network buffer overflow • Avoid client buffer underflow/overflow • Highes possible quality of experience • Client buffer feedback using RTCP is defined • Server centric approach (implementation specific): • Estimation of available network resources • Setting of transmission and content rate Interworking with charging / billing services for next 3GPP PSS release…? T-110.456

  19. Summary • Media sessions require three components: • Session control protocol • Session description language • Media transportation protocol • 3GPP PSS is standard specification at application layer that evolved from simple streaming service (Rel. 4) to more advanced one (Rel. 5 & Rel. 6) with concern in backwards compatibility.
