Hi,
 
In the ETSI 301 192 final draft (point 9.3) it is written that IP
datagrams that form the application data table of the MPE-FEC frame are
carried in MPE sections. It says that the address of each datagram
within the table is signalled in the header of the section that carries
it. It also states that there is a table_boundary flag that indicates
the end of layer 3 datagrams within the application data table.
 
The same document (point 7) describes the syntax and semantics of the
MPE section but of course there is no bits assigned to carry the address
of the datagram in the application data table and no table_boundary
flag. I am a student doing a bachelor thesis on the matter, modelling an
MPE encapsulator with Matlab, and maybe I am a little bit lost in this
matter, but I guess this information is introduced in any of the
optional fields (i.e. stuffing byte) though I do not really know if it
is done like that or if there is any 'standard' way of doing it.
 
Any help you can provide will be very useful.
 
Thank you in advance,

Have a look in the section (9) describing real time parameters (address, bo=
undaries and real time values), which are the same for MPE and FEC sections=
. Four MAC address bytes (1-4) are replaced by these parameters.

Ok, I had not realised that the real time parameters described were for
both MPE and MPE-FEC sections.
 
Thank you very much!!!

Asunto: Re: Mapping of OSI-3 datagrams in the application data table of

Have a look in the section (9) describing real time parameters (address,
boundaries and real time values), which are the same for MPE and FEC
sections. Four MAC address bytes (1-4) are replaced by these parameters.

Subject: Mapping of OSI-3 datagrams in the application data table of the
MPE-FEC frame
 
Hi,
 
In the ETSI 301 192 final draft (point 9.3) it is written that IP
datagrams that form the application data table of the MPE-FEC frame are
carried in MPE sections. It says that the address of each datagram
within the table is signalled in the header of the section that carries
it. It also states that there is a table_boundary flag that indicates
the end of layer 3 datagrams within the application data table.
 
The same document (point 7) describes the syntax and semantics of the
MPE section but of course there is no bits assigned to carry the address
of the datagram in the application data table and no table_boundary
flag. I am a student doing a bachelor thesis on the matter, modelling an
MPE encapsulator with Matlab, and maybe I am a little bit lost in this
matter, but I guess this information is introduced in any of the
optional fields (i.e. stuffing byte) though I do not really know if it
is done like that or if there is any 'standard' way of doing it.
 
Any help you can provide will be very useful.
 
Thank you in advance,

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


         Title           : Address Resolution for IP datagrams over
                           MPEG-2 networks
         Author(s)       : G. Fairhurst, et al.
         Filename        : draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt
         Pages           : 17
         Date            : 2005-4-12

This document describes the process of binding/associating IPv4/IPv6
    addresses with MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). This procedure is
    known as Address Resolution (AR), or Neighbour Discovery (ND). Such
    address resolution complements the higher layer resource discovery
    tools that are used to advertise IP sessions. In MPEG-2 networks, an
    IP address must be associated with a Packet ID (PID) and a specific
    Transmission Multiplex The document reviews current methods. It also
    describes the interaction with well-known protocols for address
    management including DHCP, ARP, and NDP, and provides guidance on
    usage.

In the body type:
         "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
         MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
         feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
         command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
         a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
         exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
         "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
         up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
         how to manipulate these messages.


Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.

Hi everyone,

 

 

I am working in a bachelor thesis modelling with matlab and/or simulink an
MPE/MPE-FEC encapsulator for a time sliced DVB-H bigger model. I still did
not start with the programming as I am finding certain difficulties that I
need to solve before. My doubt is how the encapsulator calculates the
delta-t value within consecutive bursts? I understand how the delta_t value
is coded but not how to obtain it. If anyone could refer me to any document
or could give me some information on the matter I would be very thankful.

 

 

Kind regards!!!

 

 

 

Eduardo Alonso de la Fuente

As WG chair, I request the ipdvb list to consider whether the WG is
ready to support adoption of the following individual Internet Draft
(ID) as a WG ID. By adopting an individual ID as a working group ID,
this WG indicates that it intends to be develop this into an RFC,
according to the WG charter.

WG documents should no longer be regarded as the property of the
individuals who originally authored them - the working group as a
whole must decide how they are shaped, and to see the document to a
successful conclusion. If adopted, the Internet Draft will be renamed
to start with the filename draft-ietf-ipdvb..., and will be listed on
the IETF web page for this WG.

         Title           : Address Resolution for IP datagrams over
                           MPEG-2 networks
         Author(s)       : G. Fairhurst, et al.
         Filename        : draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt
         Pages           : 17
         Date            : 2005-4-12

    This document describes the process of binding/associating IPv4/IPv6
    addresses with MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). This procedure is
    known as Address Resolution (AR), or Neighbour Discovery (ND). Such
    address resolution complements the higher layer resource discovery
    tools that are used to advertise IP sessions. In MPEG-2 networks, an
    IP address must be associated with a Packet ID (PID) and a specific
    Transmission Multiplex The document reviews current methods. It also
    describes the interaction with well-known protocols for address
    management including DHCP, ARP, and NDP, and provides guidance on
    usage.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt

---

You are encouraged to send email to this WG, to help make the decision
for adoption.  Possible recommendations are:

       1) Support for adoption as a working group draft under our Charter -
       i.e. Recommend this Internet Draft SHOULD be used as the basis for
       developing an RFC by the ipdvb WG.

       2) Request for non-adoption
       i.e. That there is (or could be) alternative approaches to
       the problem, and that the current draft is not sufficiently
       developed / or correctly designed ipdvb WG

       3) Out of scope
       i.e. you believe the document to be beyond the scope of the
       approved ipdvb WG charter.

Emails on this topic should be sent to the ipdvb mailing list before
6th May 2005.

Note that an ID does not need to be complete to be adopted. It would
also be most useful to collect as many comments/criticisms as possible
from those reading this ID.  Looking through the archived mailing
list, a first list of issues to be addressed is included at the end of
this email.

Please do help to identify any more known (or potential) issues that
should be addressed/discussed.

Best wishes,

Gorry Fairhurst
(ipdvb WG Chair)

This draft has gone for 3 re-drafts already and is due I believe for
adoption as it reflects one of the goals of the WG. 

It still needs inputs from the wider MPEG2 communivty (DVB, ATSC, cable)
in terms of how different technologies deal with L2/L3 addressing
issues.

Dear all,

This is the first time I see this document.

I also vote for WG ID.

Nonetheless, here are my remarks on the current version of the document:

The following sentence is duplicated in the draft (page 5):
"The all 1s PID value indicates a Null TS Packet introduced to maintain 
a constant bit rate of a TS Multiplex. There is no required relationship 
between the PID values used for TS Logical Channels transmitted using 
different TS Multiplexes."

This sentence is also duplicated (page 5):
"PSI: Program Specific Information [ISO-MPEG2]. PSI is used to convey 
information about services carried in a TS Multiplex. It is carried in 
one of four specifically identified table section constructs 
[ISO-MPEG2], see also SI Table.

Spelling error:
"Multicast address resolution occurs at one level in associating a 
specific L2 address with _am_ IP Group Destination Address"
Change the underlined to "an"

Spelling error:
"The principle drawbacks are that _while_ the INT, there is a need for a 
Gateway to introduce associated PSI/SI MPEG-2 control information."
Change the underlined to "with"

Spelling error:
"(...) or parts of the network where gateway devices isolate the MPEG 
devices from the larger Internet creating virtual MPEG2 private networks.)"
Move the last parentheses to before the period mark.

Spelling error:
"The ND protocol of IPv6 [RFC2461] may be used.NDP does not require (...)"
Insert a <space> after the period mark.

Spelling error:
"The ND protocol of IPv6 [RFC2461] may be used with The LLC/SNAP format 
of MPE.  NDP does not require(...)"
Remove the 2nd <space> after the period mark.


Cheers

Fausto Vieira

Subject: Please all respond: Call for the ipdvb WG to adopt:
draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt

As WG chair, I request the ipdvb list to consider whether the WG is
ready to support adoption of the following individual Internet Draft
(ID) as a WG ID. By adopting an individual ID as a working group ID,
this WG indicates that it intends to be develop this into an RFC,
according to the WG charter.

WG documents should no longer be regarded as the property of the
individuals who originally authored them - the working group as a
whole must decide how they are shaped, and to see the document to a
successful conclusion. If adopted, the Internet Draft will be renamed
to start with the filename draft-ietf-ipdvb..., and will be listed on
the IETF web page for this WG.

         Title           : Address Resolution for IP datagrams over
                           MPEG-2 networks
         Author(s)       : G. Fairhurst, et al.
         Filename        : draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt
         Pages           : 17
         Date            : 2005-4-12

    This document describes the process of binding/associating IPv4/IPv6
    addresses with MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). This procedure is
    known as Address Resolution (AR), or Neighbour Discovery (ND). Such
    address resolution complements the higher layer resource discovery
    tools that are used to advertise IP sessions. In MPEG-2 networks, an
    IP address must be associated with a Packet ID (PID) and a specific
    Transmission Multiplex The document reviews current methods. It also
    describes the interaction with well-known protocols for address
    management including DHCP, ARP, and NDP, and provides guidance on
    usage.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-fair-ipdvb-ar-04.txt

---

You are encouraged to send email to this WG, to help make the decision
for adoption.  Possible recommendations are:

       1) Support for adoption as a working group draft under our Charter -
       i.e. Recommend this Internet Draft SHOULD be used as the basis for
       developing an RFC by the ipdvb WG.

       2) Request for non-adoption
       i.e. That there is (or could be) alternative approaches to
       the problem, and that the current draft is not sufficiently
       developed / or correctly designed ipdvb WG

       3) Out of scope
       i.e. you believe the document to be beyond the scope of the
       approved ipdvb WG charter.

Emails on this topic should be sent to the ipdvb mailing list before
6th May 2005.

Note that an ID does not need to be complete to be adopted. It would
also be most useful to collect as many comments/criticisms as possible
from those reading this ID.  Looking through the archived mailing
list, a first list of issues to be addressed is included at the end of
this email.

Please do help to identify any more known (or potential) issues that
should be addressed/discussed.

Best wishes,

Gorry Fairhurst
(ipdvb WG Chair)

Thanks for noting the typos, it's always good to know people have read the 
documents - these typos will be fixed in the next revision of the draft.

As WG chair, I request the ipdvb list to consider whether the WG is
ready to support adoption of the following individual Internet Draft
(ID) as a WG ID. By adopting an individual ID as a working group ID,
this WG indicates that it intends to be develop this into an RFC,
according to the WG charter.

WG documents should no longer be regarded as the property of the
individuals who originally authored them - the working group as a
whole must decide how they are shaped, and to see the document to a
successful conclusion. If adopted, the Internet Draft will be renamed
to start with the filename draft-ietf-ipdvb..., and will be listed on
the IETF web page for this WG.

    This document describes the process of binding/associating IPv4/IPv6
    addresses with MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). This procedure is
    known as Address Resolution (AR), or Neighbour Discovery (ND). Such
    address resolution complements the higher layer resource discovery
    tools that are used to advertise IP sessions. In MPEG-2 networks, an
    IP address must be associated with a Packet ID (PID) and a specific
    Transmission Multiplex The document reviews current methods. It also
    describes the interaction with well-known protocols for address
    management including DHCP, ARP, and NDP, and provides guidance on
    usage.

You are encouraged to send email to this WG, to help make the decision
for adoption.  Possible recommendations are:

       1) Support for adoption as a working group draft under our
Charter -
       i.e. Recommend this Internet Draft SHOULD be used as the basis
for
       developing an RFC by the ipdvb WG.

       2) Request for non-adoption
       i.e. That there is (or could be) alternative approaches to
       the problem, and that the current draft is not sufficiently
       developed / or correctly designed ipdvb WG

       3) Out of scope
       i.e. you believe the document to be beyond the scope of the
       approved ipdvb WG charter.

Emails on this topic should be sent to the ipdvb mailing list before
6th May 2005.

Note that an ID does not need to be complete to be adopted. It would
also be most useful to collect as many comments/criticisms as possible
from those reading this ID.  Looking through the archived mailing
list, a first list of issues to be addressed is included at the end of
this email.

Please do help to identify any more known (or potential) issues that
should be addressed/discussed.

A couple of questions about MPE-FEC framing.

1. The interim IP datacast standard A079 (meant to
facilitate DVB-H trials) specifies that only one
datagram should be used per MPE section i.e., no
fragmentation of IP datagram over multiple MPE
sections. However, the DVB Databroadcast specification
allows fragmentation of the IP datagram over multiple
sections. Does anyone know what the usual practice is?
Do the final DVB/IP datacast standards specify this
for DVB-H?

2. The MPE section has optional stuffing bytes at the
end of the section. Are these used? If yes, for what?


thanks,
Siva

In order to reduce encapsulation overhead, section packing is used, i.e. 
if the (remainder of an) IP packet does not fit exactly in a TS packet a 
subsequent IP packet may start in that TS packet as well.
In order to reduce jitter and latency, section packing is not used.

You can find both on existing services.

The difficulty with section peckaing on the transmit side is that the 
encapsulator needs to wait for subsequent IP packets to fill an 
partially filled TS packet and therefor has typically a time-out 
associated to that waiting, ie before flushing the buffer and 
transmitting the final TS packet.

Whenver an IP packets leaves "enough" space in the last TS packet 
another IP packet could be inserted. If not wanted or needed, stuffing 
takes care that the empty space is filled up with pattern 0xFF.

Hi,

Do MPE allows packing? cause as far as i concern it's only allow padding
while ULE allows both. Correct me if i'm wrong.

Dear members,

For packing and padding, it depends on the TS packet. If a payload unit
finishes before the end of a TS packet payload, and where there is
sufficient space, the TS packet will carry one more new payload unit. 

So, TS packet padding and packing can be used for MPE and ULE.

I hope it will help.

Indeed the MPE specification *DOES* allow section packing as an option. Not
all drivers/implementations permit this.

Conversely, in ULE *ALL* compliant drivers MUST support it.

Well, section packing is allowed, and MPE uses sections, so it can "ride 
that horse". And, of course, MPE with section packing meanwhile is 
supported by nearly all IRD cards and drivers. However, it is badly 
described compared to ULE.

Bernhard

Greetings,

While researching MPE and the proposed ULE spec, I ran across some
information that I cannot equate.

If I read table 3 of EN 301 193 v1.4.1 (DVB spec for data broadcasting)
correctly, the overhead of an MPE section is 16 bytes (assuming LLC/SNAP
not used).  But while researching MPE I found a brief by Vladimir
Ksinant, Alain Ritoux, and "fritsche" entitled "Using ULE for IPv4/v6 in
MPEG-2 encapsulation" (12/11/2003) that states there is 17 bytes of
header/trailer for IPv4 packets encapsulated by MPE, and 25 bytes for
IPv6, assuming use of LLC/SNAP.

1) For a section encapsulating an IPv4 packet and not using LLC/SNAP, is
the overhead 16 or 17 bytes? (same for ULE...I count 8 bytes in
draft-ietf-ipdvb-ule-05 section 4 where the above document states 9
bytes, when not using the destination address) 

2) (for MPE) If my original calculation of 16 bytes is correct, then
would the overhead for a section using LLC/SNAP be 24 bytes (16 + 8 byte
LLC/SNAP)?

3) Do current MPE implementations in IPv6 networks require the use of
LLC/SNAP in the section?  I know this was discussed on the list some
time ago, and I believe the reason for it was because MPE does not
include a type field, where ULE does.  Are there any current MPE
implementations that do not require LLC/SNAP for IPv6 packets?

Thanks in advance!
Ed

I guess also considering the  overhead of the PP byte?

Dear members,

I have gone through the document that mention by Ed Summers, for my opinion
the authors had included the Payload Pointer in the overhead bytes
calculation for MPE and ULE.

Normally when we calculate the encapsulated bytes MPEG-2 TS for MPE and ULE:

If the payload unit is a new payload, usually we calculated in this way =
Encapsulated bytes =188bytes   - 4bytes    -  1 bytes
                 (TS pkt size)  (TS header)   (PP)
Encapsulated bytes = 183 

So I think maybe the authors had considered the overhead of PP (like what
Gorry said)

Subject: RE: MPE Question

Greetings,

While researching MPE and the proposed ULE spec, I ran across some
information that I cannot equate.

If I read table 3 of EN 301 193 v1.4.1 (DVB spec for data broadcasting)
correctly, the overhead of an MPE section is 16 bytes (assuming LLC/SNAP
not used).  But while researching MPE I found a brief by Vladimir
Ksinant, Alain Ritoux, and "fritsche" entitled "Using ULE for IPv4/v6 in
MPEG-2 encapsulation" (12/11/2003) that states there is 17 bytes of
header/trailer for IPv4 packets encapsulated by MPE, and 25 bytes for
IPv6, assuming use of LLC/SNAP.

1) For a section encapsulating an IPv4 packet and not using LLC/SNAP, is
the overhead 16 or 17 bytes? (same for ULE...I count 8 bytes in
draft-ietf-ipdvb-ule-05 section 4 where the above document states 9
bytes, when not using the destination address) 

2) (for MPE) If my original calculation of 16 bytes is correct, then
would the overhead for a section using LLC/SNAP be 24 bytes (16 + 8 byte
LLC/SNAP)?

3) Do current MPE implementations in IPv6 networks require the use of
LLC/SNAP in the section?  I know this was discussed on the list some
time ago, and I believe the reason for it was because MPE does not
include a type field, where ULE does.  Are there any current MPE
implementations that do not require LLC/SNAP for IPv6 packets?

Thanks in advance!
Ed

Content-Type: text/plain;

Dear members,

 

I'm quite confusing with the example shown in Annex A on the examples of
SNDU packing.

 

Example A.1: Two 186B PDUs. 
    
     SNDU A is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
     SNDU B is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
    
   The sequence comprises 3 TS Packets: 
    
                      SNDU                
           PP=0      Length          
   +-----+------+------+------+-   -+------+ 
   | HDR | 0x00 | 0x00 | 0xC4 | ... | A182 | 
   +-----+----*-+-*----+------+-   -+------+ 
   PUSI=1     *   * 
              ***** 
                                         
    

For the SNDU Length shown in the figure above, why it is 0xC4?

The size for a MPEG-2 TS packet is 188, if minus TS header and PP, is 183
bytes.

So the maximum size that the IP packet (SNDU A) can be encapsulated should
be 183 = 0xb7,

But why it is 0xC4 instead of 0xb7? Or Do I miss something?

 

Hope somebody could help me on this matter. Thanks in advance!

Hi Simon,

 

The Length specified in the example is SNDU length and NOT MPEG2-TS header
length,  as the ULE draft specifies one SNDU can prolong/extend more than
one MPEG2-TS packet (that's what this example trying to explain). In this
example complete MPEG2-TS header information are not discussed, only PUSI
and if PUSI is ONE payload pointer are discussed.

 

-William.

Subject: Question on ANNEX A: Informative Appendix - SNDU Packing Examples

 

Dear members,

 

I'm quite confusing with the example shown in Annex A on the examples of
SNDU packing.

 

Example A.1: Two 186B PDUs. 
    
     SNDU A is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
     SNDU B is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
    
   The sequence comprises 3 TS Packets: 
    
                      SNDU                
           PP=0      Length          
   +-----+------+------+------+-   -+------+ 
   | HDR | 0x00 | 0x00 | 0xC4 | ... | A182 | 
   +-----+----*-+-*----+------+-   -+------+ 
   PUSI=1     *   * 
              ***** 
                                         
    

For the SNDU Length shown in the figure above, why it is 0xC4?

The size for a MPEG-2 TS packet is 188, if minus TS header and PP, is 183
bytes.

So the maximum size that the IP packet (SNDU A) can be encapsulated should
be 183 = 0xb7,

But why it is 0xC4 instead of 0xb7? Or Do I miss something?

 

Hope somebody could help me on this matter. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the response Bernhard, but I am a bit
confused about the answer. Please see my question

I understand that two MPE sections could probably
start in the same TS packet (I guess that is what you
mean by section packing).

My original questions was, what is the usual practice
with regards to fragmenting an IP datagram over
multiple MPE sections (irrespective of how these
sections are transported in TS packets)? The DVB-H
(data broadcast standard) allows for this, however,
the IPDC interim specification requires that one
datagram be encapsulated entirely in one mpe section
i.e., no datagram fragmentation over multiple MPE
sections.

thanks,
Siva

I was actually referring to the stuffing bytes in the
MPE section, not the TS packet. I understand the use
of stuffing bytes in TS packets, but am not clear why
stuffing bytes are used in MPE sections.

Examples

 

Hi Simon,

 

The Length specified in the example is SNDU length and NOT MPEG2-TS header
length,  as the ULE draft specifies one SNDU can prolong/extend more than
one MPEG2-TS packet (that's what this example trying to explain). In this
example complete MPEG2-TS header information are not discussed, only PUSI
and if PUSI is ONE payload pointer are discussed.

 

-William.

Subject: Question on ANNEX A: Informative Appendix - SNDU Packing Examples

 

Dear members,

 

I'm quite confusing with the example shown in Annex A on the examples of
SNDU packing.

 

Example A.1: Two 186B PDUs. 
    
     SNDU A is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
     SNDU B is 200 bytes (including the ULE destination NPA address) 
    
   The sequence comprises 3 TS Packets: 
    
                      SNDU                
           PP=0      Length          
   +-----+------+------+------+-   -+------+ 
   | HDR | 0x00 | 0x00 | 0xC4 | ... | A182 | 
   +-----+----*-+-*----+------+-   -+------+ 
   PUSI=1     *   * 
              ***** 
                                         
    

For the SNDU Length shown in the figure above, why it is 0xC4?

The size for a MPEG-2 TS packet is 188, if minus TS header and PP, is 183
bytes.

So the maximum size that the IP packet (SNDU A) can be encapsulated should
be 183 = 0xb7,

But why it is 0xC4 instead of 0xb7? Or Do I miss something?

 

Hope somebody could help me on this matter. Thanks in advance!

Dear Siva,

you are right in that I had understood your question different.

Generally Sections do allow for numbering that is, one can put a payload 
(for example a DSM-CC object) into a number of Sections and with 
section_number and last_section_number the reassebler knows what to do. 
MPE uses this Section mechanism, so multiple Section operations should 
be possible. Actually I have never tested whether MPE decapsulators do 
support this in real, in principle they should (again the DVB 
databroadacst standard does not say too much, if anything, about it) but 
in DSM-CC Obejct carousels is a very usual mode of operation.

Now the confusion starts when one introduces the wording of "over 
multiple MPE sections", because there is no such thing as a MPE section 
fragmentation.
I will have to read the DVB-H standard again in order to find out what 
it really says. I guess the only real issues the DVB-H wrt to IP is 
addressing is the necessity of a IP datagram encapsulated in MPE is to 
support time slicing (ie a burst transmission of the resulting TS 
packets to allow for power saving) and MPE-FEC (adding redundant code to 
allow for reconstruction). In that case I woould assume that it is very 
reasonable (especially with legacy equipment) to avoid all potential 
interpretations of MPE wrt multiple section operation and section packing.

Yor are very welcome,
and I hope I got THE expected answer closer,
Bernhard

According to EN301192 "stuffing_byte: this is an optional 8-bit field 
whose value is not specified. If the payload of the section is scrambled
(see payload_scrambling_mode), these bytes are scrambled. They are to 
assist with block encryption and data processing in wide bus 
environments. The number of stuffing_bytes used should meet the data 
alignment requirements defined in the data_broadcast_descriptor."

So, for block encryption one typically has some arbitariy number of bits 
to encrypt and needs to ensure that the MPE payload is on auch a 
multiple bit boundary for what MPE internal stuffing might be needed...

Hi All,

I have finished my AD review of draft-ietf-ipdvb-ule-05.txt.  This 
document appears to be in very good shape.  I just have a couple of 
comments/questions on the document (see below) that I would like to 
resolve before sending the document to the IESG for final review.

Since any changes related to these comments are likely to be very 
small, I will send the document to IETF LC in parallel with resolving 
these issues.  Gorry, if you like, you can wait until the IETF LC 
completes and make any changes resulting from these comments at the 
same time as you make any changes to address the IETF LC comments.

4. SNDU Format

    PDUs are encapsulated using ULE to form an SNDU. (Each SNDU is an
    MPEG-2 Payload Unit.) The encapsulation format to be used for PDUs
    is illustrated below:

    < ----------------------------- SNDU ----------------------------- >
    +-+-------------------------------------------------------+--------+
    |D| Length | Type |                 PDU                   | CRC-32 |
    +-+-------------------------------------------------------+--------+

    Figure 1: SNDU Encapsulation

    All multi-byte values in ULE (including Length, Type, and
    Destination fields) are transmitted in network byte order (most
    significant byte first). The most significant bit of each byte is
    placed in the left-most position of the 8-bit field. Appendix A
    provides informative examples of usage.

>>  A destination field is mentioned in the text, but not shown in
>>  the diagram?  It might make sense to how/where the destination
>>  may be included before mentioning it.

    5.1 Test SNDU

    A Test SNDU (figure 10) is of a Mandatory Extension Header of Type
    1. This header must be the final (or only) extension header
    specified in the header chain of a SNDU.

[...]

    5.2 Bridge Frame SNDU Encapsulation

    A bridged SNDU is a Mandatory Extension Header of Type 1. It must be
    the final (or only) extension header specified in the header chain
    of a SNDU.

>>  Is it intentional that the Test SNDU and the Bridge Frame SNDU
>>  headers cannot be used in the same SNDU?

3. Description of the Method

[...]

    The ULE encapsulation is limited to TS private streams only. The
    header of each TS Packet carries a one bit Payload Unit Start
    Indicator (PUSI) field. A PUSI field with a value of 1 indicates the
    presence of at least one Payload Unit (SNDU) within the TS Packet
    payload.

>>  s/the presence of at least one/the start of at least one/  ??
>>
>>  If I understand this correctly, the PUSI field will be 0 if
>>  the TS does not include the start of an SNDU.

Hi

An important feature of DVB-H is time slicing and to ensure that data of a single packet is not spread into mutliple slices/bursts (hence avoiding keeping additional data and context for prolonged time), thus a single (DVB-H) MPE section must not have only part of an IP packet. I haven't been following the lower layers so closely recently, but I would be very suprised to find this changed for DVB-H.

In a sense DVB-H IP encapsulation is a profile of DVB data broadcast encapsulation, so it shouldn't be supprising that the latter offers a superset of features from the former.

All the MPE clients I've had the fortune to play with have supported packing (but that's only a few), but personally I've have problems with encapsulators forcably waiting to "fill up" sections. My experience from DVB-H onwards was less troublesome (because we became much more choosy about encapsulators). (Nowadays I'm not in touch with broadcast MAC so much).

So far, a complelling case to allow fragmentation over MPE sections for DVB-H has not been presented, whereas the opposite (the cost of doing so over bursts, and the consideration that it adds insignificant value anyway) has been accepted. (Noting that no DVB-H use case requires anything close to exceeding the 4KB MPE MTU in IP packet length).

Hope that's useful.

Cheers, Rod.

Hi Siva and Bernhard,
DSM-CC which is a potential MPE of our present day DOES NOT support section
packing for normal IP data transmissions. In DSM-CC we have section length
of 12 bits, which can hold maximum of 4096 Bytes of payload data (IP in our
discussion). In Normal scenario we don't even use this big, since section
packing is not supported practically (theoretically YES), we use DVB router
one interface as Ethernet and other as DVB, on Ethernet wire we get only
1500 bytes the max, though there is a room for section
packing(theoretically) real time packet routing don't wait for another IP
packet, just push each and every ip packet received with MPE (DSM-CC) and to
MPEG2-TS (supports section packing, based on the timer - reason MPEG2-TS
MUST be 188 bytes, instead of wasting bytes with stuffing we have section
packing).

When we are talking about stuffing bytes, that was perfect by Bernhard, we
use for packet alignment, to be more specific, real time operating system
like PSOS, requires it be WORD aligned ( Multiples of Four) before
encryption algorithm to be applied for scrambling.

-William.
