What Is SMPTE 2022? Video over Ethernet in Broadcast applications Jan Eveleens - CEO [email protected] Live Production as we know it Live Production infrastructures: the next wave ! today Ethernet 3 Gbps HD-SDI SDI Composite SDI A central router Central reference with distribution Already quite some Ethernet Many cables, equipment often in big parallel bundles 4 AVB 5 Key issues with standard Ethernet . Standard Ethernet cannot be used reliably for real-time video and audio transport because: . Best-Effort Delivery Strategy . The data will arrive but no guarantee when . Non-Deterministic behavior . Standard Ethernet is ‘random’ . Lack of Concept of Isochronous Delivery . In standard Ethernet there is no sense of time and/or timing . Not Being Content-Aware . Standard Ethernet treats all data equally What is AVB ? . AVB = Audio Video Bridging . A set of standards created by the IEEE . From the charter of the IEEE AVB task group: “specifications that will allow time-synchronized low latency streaming services through 802 networks” 7 The AVB key elements Audio Video Bridging (AVB) Time Synchronization Traffic Shaping Bandwidth Reservation Configuration 8 Typical characteristics of an AVB network . All nodes are fully synchronised to a (very stable) network clock . Allows very accurate recovery of media clocks . SDI can be recovered within broadcast quality jitter specifications . Audio clock can be recovered maintaining phase relation . Low latency: typically 2ms overall network delay . Allows for complex/distributed networks (multiple hops) . The network self-manages bandwidth reservation such that links will never get overcommitted and/or packets are dropped . Uses multi-cast, so only one copy of each active source on any given link or backbone 9 How real is Ethernet AVB ? . 100Mbps, 1Gbps,10Gbps, 40Gbps and 100 Gbps Ethernet AVB switches are shipping . Several professional AVB audio products on the market from several vendors: . Audio processors, audio consoles, speakers, etc . Intercom systems . First broadcast quality AVB video products have started shipping . Compliance testing and certification process is up and running 10 ESPN in the USA is on-air with AVB audio ! “The audio infrastructure here is primarily AVB,” says Jonathan Pannaman, senior director of technology, ESPN. “We have a little MADI transport in parts, but even that will be converted to AVB at some point. The entire comms infrastructure is all AVB, from the [router] core to the panels.” From: http://sportsvideo.org/main/blog/2014/06/espns-dc2-scales-avb-large/ 11 Current published versions of IEEE AVB related standards .

IEEE 1722-2011 - Layer 2 Transport Protocol Working Group for Time-Sensitive Streams . IEEE 1722.1-2013 - IEEE Standard for Device Discovery, Connection Management, and Control Protocol for IEEE 1722(TM) Based Devices. 12 IEEE 1722 transport layer overview IEEE 1722 specifies a wealth of formats that can be transported: . MIDI . IEC-61883 (IEEE 1394 / Firewire) . Uncompressed audio (16/24/32 bit, sample rates upto 192 kHz, multi-channel) . Audio with meta-data (eg AES-3, allowing for Dolby-E transport) . SDI video (encapsulated) . RAW video (‘active picture’ only) . Clock Reference Streams (wordclock or H/V sync) . Time-Sensitive Control/Data Streams (eg transport of ANC data) . RFC (‘RTP’) compressed video streams . Vendor Specific (allows for custom/proprietary formats) 13 What is SMPTE 2022? . The genesis of these standards was the Pro-MPEG Forum. These standards, then incubated in the Video Services Forum (VSF, www.vsf.org ) . And were formally standardized by SMPTE, all falling under the SMPTE 2022 multipart standard. Intended/designed for long-haul, back-haul and contribution application across WAN networks. 14 Short SMPTE 2022 standard recap S2022-1: Forward Error Correction for Real-Time Video/Audio Transport Over IP Networks s2022-2: Unidirectional Transport of Constant Bit Rate MPEG-2 Transport Streams on IP Networks s2022-3: Unidirectional Transport of Variable Bit Rate MPEG-2 Transport Streams on IP Networks s2022-4: Unidirectional Transport of Non-Piecewise Constant Variable Bit Rate MPEG-2 Streams on IP Networks s2022-5: Forward Error Correction for High Bit Rate Media Transport Over IP Networks s2022-6: Transport of High Bit Rate Media Signals over IP Networks (HBRMT) .

The AVnu Alliance is an industry forum dedicated to the advancement of professional-quality audio video by promoting the adoption of Audio Video Bridging (AVB). The organization creates compliance test procedures and certification processes that ensure interoperability of networked AVB devices. 4 key markets: . Professional Video and Audio . Automotive . Industrial . Consumer 20 Summarising the key benefits of Ethernet - AVB . Based on existing and open standards from a very reputable and succesful standards body (IEEE) . Provides one framework for reliable, time-synchronised, real-time transport of video, audio and data . Proven technology that is available now: large professional AVB audio systems being deployed in the field . Interoperability is going to be taken care of: AVnu alliance . Plug-and play : no conflicts or fiddling with IP addresses, etc . Fool-proof: the network is self-managing, it does not rely on the skills of network engineers or a (proprietery) software management layer. Perfect co-existence (and reserved bandwidth for) with standard IP traffic (eg. control, monitoring, etc) 21 Thank you .

    Only a few years ago, computer networks were complex beasts tended by special acolytes and running on different standards. Today they have become commonplace in many homes and offices, simply plugged together using Ethernet technology. The same revolutionary change is coming for Audio/Video (AV) networking, as AVB (Audio XMOS for AVB: Video Bridging) products that run over the same network, Ethernet based networking begin to enter the market. for Audio/Video Putting together networks of AV equipment for professional and consumer use, or for use in How Ethernet Works vehicles, is about to become simpler while also Within Ethernet, data is transmitted between delivering better quality.

  • Schedulability Analysis of Ethernet Audio Video Bridging Networks with Scheduled Traffic Support
    Real-Time Syst DOI 10.1007/s11241-017-9268-5 Schedulability analysis of Ethernet Audio Video Bridging networks with scheduled traffic support Mohammad Ashjaei1 · Gaetano Patti2 · Moris Behnam1 · Thomas Nolte1 · Giuliana Alderisi2 · LuciaLoBello2 © The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract The IEEE Audio Video Bridging (AVB)technology is nowadays under con- sideration in several automation domains, such as, automotive, avionics, and industrial communications. AVB offers several benefits, such as open specifications, the exis- tence of multiple providers of electronic components, and the real-time support, as AVB provides bounded latency to real-time traffic classes. In addition to the above men- tioned properties, in the automotive domain, comparing with the existing in-vehicle networks, AVB offers significant advantages in terms of high bandwidth, signifi- cant reduction of cabling costs, thickness and weight, while meeting the challenging EMC/EMI requirements. Recently, an improvement of the AVB protocol, called the AVB ST, was proposed in the literature, which allows for supporting scheduled traffic, i.e., a class of time-sensitive traffic that requires time-driven transmission and low latency. In this paper, we present a schedulability analysis for the real-time traffic crossing through the AVB ST network. In addition, we formally prove that, if the bandwidth in the network is allocated according to the AVB standard, the schedula- bility test based on response time analysis will fail for most cases even if, in reality, these cases are schedulable. In order to provide guarantees based on analysis test a bandwidth over-reservation is required.

Representation includes file and streaming formats for object-based audio. Provision is the distribution to end-user, including IP delivery, unicast streams and file downloads. For both file and streaming formats interoperable metadata have to be used. Among the requirements for the different formats are metadata support, existing standards, file size, compression, and support of advanced audio. The most important requirements for streaming formats are related to synchronization, existing standards, unicast and multicast transmission, latency, bitrate reduction, synchronization of audio signals, quality of service and specific requirements for streaming object- based audio metadata.
