<abstract>
<t>
This document defines three RTP Control Protcol (RTCP) Extended
Report (XR) Blocks and associated SDP parameters that allow the
reporting of loss, duplication and discard summary statistics metrics
in a range of RTP applications.
</t>
</abstract>

<section title="Introduction">
<t>
This draft defines three new block types to augment those defined in
Freidman, et al. <xref target="RFC3611"></xref> for use in a range of RTP
applications.
</t>
<t>
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
Wu, Hunt & Arden <xref target="I-D.ietf-avtcore-monarch"></xref>. These two
blocks are intended to be used in conjunction with information from the
Burst Gap Loss metric block or Burst Gap Discard metric block, and on
which these two block therefore depend. The metrics in the
Burst Gap Loss block or Burst Gap Discard metric block can be used
independently of the metrics defined in the first two blocks, however.
These two
blocks reflect transient IP problems that affect user experience and can
be used to influence sender strategies to mitigate the problem.
</t>
<t>
To form an accurate assessment of users' quality of experience, it is
therefore necessary to know not just overall rates of packet
loss/discard, but also which frame types were affected. 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
Wu, Hunt & Arden <xref target="I-D.ietf-avtcore-monarch"></xref>.

<section title="Standards Language">
<t>
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 <xref
target="RFC2119">RFC 2119</xref>.
</t>
<t>In addition, the following terms are defined:</t>
<t>
<list style="hanging">
<t hangText="Picture Type">
<vspace blankLines="1" />
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.

with the metric "cumulative number of packets lost" provided in
standard RTCP <xref target="RFC3550"></xref>.</t>
<t>These metrics provide information relevant to statistical
parameters, including burst loss rate, gap loss rate, burst duration
mean, burst duration variance and are calculated using burst gap loss

Burst/Gap Loss Summary Statistics metrics are Sampled, Interval
or Cumulative metrics, that is, whether the reported values
apply to the most recent measurement interval duration between
successive metrics reports (I=10) (the Interval Duration) or to
the accumulation period characteristic of cumulative
measurements (I=11) (the Cumulative Duration) or is a sampled
instantaneous value (I=01) (Sampled Value). <vspace

<t hangText="Burst Loss Rate: 16 bits">
<vspace blankLines="1" />
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:
<vspace blankLines="1" />
Packets Loss in Bursts / Total Packets expected
in Bursts
<vspace blankLines="1" />
</t>
<t hangText="Gap Loss Rate: 16 bits">
<vspace blankLines="1" />
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:
<vspace blankLines="1" />
(number of packets lost - Packets Lost in Bursts) / (Packets Expected - Total Packets expected in Bursts)
<vspace blankLines="1" />
where "number of
packets lost" is obtained from <xref target="RFC3550">standard RTCP</xref> 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 <xref target="I-D.ietf-xrblock-rtcp-xr-meas-identity"/>.
<vspace blankLines="1" />
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.
<vspace blankLines="1" />
</t>
<t hangText="Burst Duration Mean:16bits">
<vspace blankLines="1" />
The mean burst duration is obtained as the
quotient:
<vspace blankLines="1" />
mean = Sum of Burst Durations / Number of Bursts
<vspace blankLines="1" />
where "Sum of Burst Durations" and “Number of Bursts” is obtained from the RTCP XR
Burst/Gap Loss Block <xref target="I-D.ietf-xrblock-rtcp-xr-burst-gap-loss"></xref>.
<vspace blankLines="1" />
</t>
<t hangText="Burst Duration Variance:16bits">
<vspace blankLines="1" />
The variance of the burst duration is obtained
using the standard result:
<vspace blankLines="1" />
var = ( Sum of Squares of Burst Durations - Number of Bursts * mean^2 ) / (Number of Bursts - 1)
<vspace blankLines="1" />
where "Sum of Squares of Burst Durations" and “Number of Bursts”is obtained
from the RTCP XR Burst/Gap Loss Block <xref
