2. Introduction
3GPP has specified the Packet-switched Streaming Service (PSS) that
uses both RTSP [RFC2326] and SDP [RFC4566]. The service is specified
in technical specifications TS 26.233 [PSS-233] and TS 26.234
[PSS-234] in Release 4 and later releases. The basic service defined
in Release 4 is enhanced in Release 5 with capability exchange and in
Release 6 with a number of features, such as adaptation, digital
rights management, progressive download as well as a streaming server
file-format defined in [PSS-3GP]. Fast start-up and content
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
switching are addressed in Release 7.
3GPP has also specified the Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service
(MBMS) that uses SDP. The IP layer protocols used by this service
are specified in technical specification TS 26.346 Release 6 [MBMS].
Release 7 extends the MBMS User Service to also work with unicast
bearers for interactive and streaming traffic classes.
In the process of defining these services, there has occasionally
been the need to extend both SDP and RTSP functionality. These
extensions have mostly been in the form of SDP attributes and RTSP
headers and option tags. 3GPP uses the name option tags (like RTSP
2.0 for what RTSP 1.0 calls option tags, option tag is the name that
will be used in this document. The purpose of this informational
document is to register these SDP and RTSP extensions, in order to
avoid future conflicts, and also to raise the awareness of their
existence within IETF.
This document defines in Section 5.4 three SDP protocol identifiers
used in MBMS to enable the usage of block-based FEC. The other SDP
and RTSP extensions registered by this document are not normatively
defined in this document. Instead the normative definitions are
referenced by the registrations.
The document begins with two chapters presenting the different
extensions of SDP for PSS and MBMS, respectively, followed by a
section noting that offer/answer considerations are not applicable
here. The subsequent section presents the extensions of RTSP for
PSS. The IANA registration of SDP attributes and protocol
identifiers is given in Section 8.1, and the RTSP headers and option
tags in Section 8.2. For normative descriptions of all SDP and RTSP
extensions we refer to TS 26.234 [PSS-234] and TS 26.346 [MBMS].
3. Applicability Statement
This document describes 3GPP-defined extensions to SDP [RFC4566] and
RTSP [RFC2326] and registers attributes that are normatively defined
in 3GPP technical specifications 26.234, 26.244 and 26.346 up to the
referenced versions of the respective documents.
The SDP and RTSP extensions have only been defined for usage with the
3GPP service in mind. The applicability for usage outside of these
services has not been considered or addressed. Usage of these
attributes in other contexts may require further definitions or
clarifications. For example, all SDP attributes lack offer/answer
usage rules [RFC3264] which currently makes it impossible to use them
with offer/answer. Please note that change control of these SDP and

Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
RTSP extensions belongs to 3GPP.
4. PSS SDP Extensions
The PSS specification [PSS-234] defines a number of different SDP
attributes for different purposes. They are informatively listed
below grouped by purpose. The text is intentionally not specific
enough to allow implementation from this document. The normative
definition is in the 3GPP technical specification cited.
4.1. Video Buffering Attributes
The following attributes are used to provide parameters for the video
buffer model provided in Annex G and Section 5.3.3.2 of [PSS-234].
The attributes were defined in Release 5 as "X-" attributes and were
at the time not considered for registration. In hindsight, however,
they should not have been "X-" attributes, and they should have been
registered, as the registration rules of SDP [RFC4566] point out.
Changing their names today is impossible due to the deployed base of
millions of mobile handsets supporting PSS, and therefore they are
registered in their current form.
All attributes are defined at media level.
o The "a=X-predecbufsize" attribute provides the size of the pre-
decoder buffer in bytes.
o The "a=X-initpredecbufperiod" attribute provides the time during
which a receiver should initially buffer, in 90kHz ticks, before
starting to consume the data in the buffer in order to ensure that
underflow does not occur, assuming correct data delivery.
o The "a=X-initpostdecbufperiod" attribute provides the initial
buffering period, in 90kHz ticks, for the post-decoder buffer
present in H.263 and MPEG-4 Visual.
o The "a=X-decbyterate" attribute indicates the maximum peak byte-
decoding rate used in the verification of the Annex G buffer model
expressed in bytes per second.
o The "a=3gpp-videopostdecbufsize" attribute is used to indicate the
value used in determining the H.264 video post-decoder buffer
size.
Note that complete descriptions of these attributes can be found in
section 5.3.3.2 of [PSS-234].
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
4.2. Video Frame Size Attribute
This media-level attribute provides the receiver with the largest
picture size a specific H.263 payload type will carry within the
session. The attribute has the following form (see 5.3.3.2 of
[PSS-234]):
"a=framesize:<payload type number> <width>-<height>"
4.3. Integrity Protection Configuration Attributes
These attributes are all used to configure the integrity-protection
mechanism defined in Annex K (section K.2.2.1, K.2.2.2 and K.2.2.3)
of [PSS-234].
o The session-level attribute "a=3GPP-Integrity-Key" carries the
integrity key used to derive SRTP master keys for integrity
protection. They key is protected in different ways depending on
a method identifier. When using OMA DRM keymanagement, the key is
encrypted using AES [AES] before it is base64 encoded [RFC4648].
o The media-level attribute "a=3GPP-SRTP-Config" is used to
configure SRTP for integrity protection and contains an integrity
nonce, a key salt used in deriving the SRTP master key from the
integrity key, and any SRTP configuration parameters, such as the
integrity tag length.
o The session-level attribute "a=3GPP-SDP-Auth" is used to carry an
authentication tag calculated over certain parts of the SDP to
prevent manipulation of the security attributes.
4.4. The Alternative Attributes
Two media and one session-level attributes are used in a mechanism
for providing alternative SDP lines. One or more SDP lines at media
level can be replaced, if desired, by alternatives. The mechanism is
backwards compatible in the way that a receiver that does not support
the attributes will get the default configuration. The different
alternatives can be grouped using different attributes that can be
specified hierarchically with a top and a lower level. 3GPP Release 6
supports grouping based on bit-rate, according to the SDP bandwidth
modifiers AS and TIAS, and language.
The SDP attributes (see 5.3.3.3 and 5.3.3.4 of [PSS-234]) are:
o The media-level attribute "a=alt:<id>:<SDP-Line>" carries any SDP
line and an alternative identifier.
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
o The media-level attribute "a=alt-default-id:<id>" identifies the
default configuration to be used in groupings.
o The session-level attribute "a=alt-group" is used to group
different recommended media alternatives. Providing aggregated
properties for the whole group according to the grouping type.
Language and bit-rate are two defined grouping types.
4.5. Adaptation Attribute
The media-level SDP attribute "a=3GPP-Adaptation-Support" (see
5.3.3.5 of [PSS-234]) is defined as part of the negotiation procedure
of the PSS adaptation mechanism. The attribute carries a single
value indicating how often the RTCP "Next Application Data Unit"
(NADU) APP packet shall be included in sent RTCP compound packets.
The adaptation mechanism allows the client to provide the server with
information on the available transmission bit-rate and receiver
buffer status.
4.6. Quality of Experience Attribute
The session and media-level attribute "a=3GPP-QoE-Metrics" (see
5.3.3.6 of [PSS-234]]) is used to negotiate the usage of the quality
of experience metrics. The included parameters indicate which
metrics, over which duration there should be measurements, and how
often reports should be sent.
4.7. Asset Information Attribute
The session and media-level attribute "a=3GPP-Asset-Information" (see
5.3.3.7 of [PSS-234]) can exist in multiple instances in a
description and describes different types of asset information. The
different asset classes defined in Release 6 are: Title, Description,
Copyright, Performer, Author, Genre, Rating, Classification,
Keywords, Location, Album, and Recording Year. The different assets
are described with a BASE64-encoded asset box from the 3GP file
format [PSS-3GP].
5. MBMS SDP Extensions
The MBMS specification [MBMS] defines a number of different SDP
attributes for different purposes. They are informatively listed
below.
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 8]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
5.1. MBMS Bearer Mode Declaration Attribute
The session and media-level attribute "a=mbms-mode" (see 7.3.2.7 of
[MBMS]) is used to describe MBMS broadcast mode media. The attribute
may be used at session level to set the default for all media and at
media level to specify differences between media. However, the
attribute is never used at session level when the session includes
MBMS multicast mode media, nor at media level to describe MBMS
multicast mode media.
5.2. FEC Flow ID Attribute
The media-level attribute "a=mbms-flowid" (see 8.3.1.9 of [MBMS])
maps one or more FEC source block flow IDs to their corresponding
destination IP addresses and UDP port numbers. It is present in each
SDP media block for repair packet streams.
5.3. MBMS Repair Attribute
The session and media-level attribute "a=mbms-repair" (see 8.3.1.8 of
[MBMS]) is used to provide FEC repair packets with non-FEC specific
parameters. For Release 6 one such parameter is defined, specifying
the required minimum receiver buffer time.
5.4. SDP Protocol Identifiers for FEC
MBMS defines a mechanism to provide block-based FEC for UDP-based
traffic. This solution uses the SDP protocol "proto" identifier to
identify the media streams that use the FEC shim layer. The media
streams may be either source streams and repair streams. As required
by SDP [RFC4566] these protocol identifiers are normatively defined
in this document in accordance with their usage specified by 3GPP.
5.4.1. RTP Protocol Identifiers
For FEC-protected RTP streams the following two "proto" identifiers
are defined:
o UDP/MBMS-FEC/RTP/AVP
o UDP/MBMS-FEC/RTP/SAVP
They indicate the usage of UDP [RFC0768] with MBMS FEC Source packet
formats, as defined in Section 8.2.2.4 of [MBMS], that transport RTP
packets in accordance with the AVP [RFC3551] or SAVP (Secure RTP)
[RFC3711] profiles, respectively. These protocol identifiers SHALL
use the FMT space rules that are used for RTP/AVP and RTP/SAVP,
respectively.
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
5.4.2. FEC Repair Data Identifier
A media stream carrying MBMS FEC repair information over UDP requires
its own "proto" identifier. Protocol identifier "UDP/MBMS-REPAIR"
identifies the FEC repair packet containing the protocol combination
of UDP [RFC0768] and FEC repair payload ID and repair symbols as
specified in Section 8.2.2.5 of [MBMS]. The FMT string is not used
and SHALL be set to "*".
5.5. Video Buffering Attribute
The PSS media-level buffer attribute "a=X-initpredecbufperiod"(See
Section 4.1) that specifies an initial buffering time is also used
for MBMS in Release 7. It is mainly intended for video streams, but
may be used for other media types as well (See Section 8.3.1.1 of
[MBMS]).
6. SDP Offer/Answer Consideration
The usage of the SDP attributes in an Offer/Answer [RFC3264] context
is not defined. These SDP attributes are defined for being used in a
declarative context, and for PSS specifically in RTSP [RFC2326]
context.
7. PSS RTSP Extensions
The RTSP extensions for PSS consist of a number of new RTSP headers
and option tags and a narrowing of URI usage in regards to 3GP files.
The headers and option tags are informatively described here; see
[PSS-234] for the normative declaration.
7.1. 3GPP-Link-Char Header
The "3GPP-Link-Char" header (see 5.3.2.1 of [PSS-234]) is used by
clients to provide the server with QoS information about the wireless
link it is currently using. The header can be used to provide the
server with three different QoS parameters:
o Guaranteed Bandwidth
o Maximum Bandwidth
o Maximum Transfer Delay
The header may be included in RTSP requests using either of the
methods SETUP, PLAY, OPTIONS and SET_PARAMETER.
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 10]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
7.2. 3GPP-Adaptation Header
The "3GPP-Adaptation" header (see 5.3.2.2 of [PSS-234]) is used by
the client to provide the server with adaptation-related parameters
and to indicate support of the adaptation function. The header
carries the resource identification as a URI, the client's buffer
size, and the desired target time.
The header may be included in requests using the methods SETUP, PLAY,
OPTIONS and SET_PARAMETER. The response to a request using this
method shall include this header.
7.3. 3GPP-QoE-Metrics Header
The "3GPP-QoE-Metrics" header (see 5.3.2.3.1 of [PSS-234]) is used to
negotiate the usage of the quality of experience (QoE) metrics (see
Section 11 of [PSS-234]).
The header may be included in requests and responses using the SETUP,
SET_PARAMTER, OPTIONS or PLAY method.
7.4. 3GPP-QoE-Feedback Header
The "3GPP-QoE-Feedback" header (see 5.3.2.3.2 of [PSS-234]) is used
to carry QoE metrics from the client to the server when it reports,
which happen either during or at the end of the media delivery.
The header may be included in requests using the SET_PARAMETER,
PAUSE, or TEARDOWN method.
7.5. Video Buffer Headers
PSS uses several headers to provide the client with the different
buffer parameters. They provide the buffer status at the point of a
stream that a PLAY request plays from. These headers may only be
used in PLAY responses. See Section 5.3.2.4 and Annex G of [PSS-234]
for normative definitions.
The three "x-" headers were defined in 3GPP Release 5. When it was
realized that they should not have been given "x-" names it was too
late rename them due to deployment.
The RTSP headers are:
o x-predecbufsize
o x-initpredecbufperiod
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 11]
Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
o x-initpostdecbufperiod
o 3gpp-videopostdecbufsize
7.6. Integrity Protection
The integrity-protection mechanism defined in PSS Annex K uses the
"3GPP-Freshness-Token" (See Section K.2.2.4 of [PSS-234]) RTSP header
to carry a freshness token in DESCRIBE requests.
7.7. RTSP URI Extension
The PSS specification also defines syntax for referencing tracks
within the "3GP" file format [PSS-3GP]. The 3GP format is based on
the ISO base media file format and defined in several different
profiles, including a streaming-server profile, in Release 6.
This syntax is fully contained within the generic URI syntax defined
for RTSP URIs. It is only a syntax restriction server manufacturers
follow to allow clients or proxies to understand what encodes the
track number in the URI. This is provided for information only.
To identify a track within a 3GP file the last URI segment has to
contain a structure that is <alpha string>=<track nr> (See 5.3.3.1 of
[PSS-234]).
7.8. Fast Start-up and Content Switching
Release 7 of PSS defines a number of extensions in terms of headers
and option tags (See Section 5.5 of [PSS-234]) for support of fast
start-up and switching of content for on-demand and live applications
built on top of PSS. Clients are enabled to reuse the existing RTSP
control session and RTP resources while switching to new content.
The RTSP headers are:
o Switch-Stream
o SDP-Requested
o Pipelined-Requests
The RTSP option tags are:
o 3gpp-pipelined
o 3gpp-switch
Westerlund & Frojdh Expires November 9, 2009 [Page 12]

9. Security Considerations
SDP attributes are subject to modification by an attacker unless they
are integrity protected and authenticated. The security
consideration of the SDP specification [RFC4566] should be reviewed
in this regard. The registered SDP attributes are vulnerable to

Internet-Draft SDP & RTSP extensions for 3GPP May 2009
modification attacks or removal, which may result in problems of
serious nature, including failure to use service and reduced quality.
The registered RTSP headers are also vunerable to insertion, deletion
or modification attacks similar to SDP attributes. Also in this case
it can result in failure of the service or reduced quality of
streaming content.
The three SDP protocol identifiers do not by themselves introduce any
additional security threats that don't exist for other protocol
identifiers in SDP. The media stream and the protocols identified by
the protocol identifier may however contain security issues by
themselves.
