`Foreword
`
`ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the Inter-
`national Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for
`worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or
`IEC participate in the development of
`International Standards through
`technical committees established by the respective organization to deal
`with particular fields of technical activity.
`ISO and IEC technical com-
`mittees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organ-
`izations, governmental and non—governmental,
`in liaison with ISO and IEC,
`also take part in the work.
`
`In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint
`technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted
`by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for vot-
`ing. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least
`75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
`
`International Standard ISO/IEC 11172-1 was prepared by Joint Technical
`Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology. Sub-Committee SC 29,
`Coded representation of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia infor-
`mation.
`
`ISO/IEC 11172 consists of the following parts, under the general title In-
`formation technology — Coding of moving pictures and associated audio
`for digital storage media at up to about 1,5 Mbit/s:

`Introduction
`
`Note -- Readers interested in an overview of the MPEG Systems layer should read this Introduction and then
`proceed to annex A, before returning to the clauses 1 and 2. Since the system target decoder concept is
`referred to throughout both the normative and informative clauses of this part of ISO/IEC 11172, it may
`
`also be useful to refer to clause 2.4, and particularly 2.4.2, where the system target decoder is described.
`
`The systems specification addresses the problem of combining one or more data streams from the video and
`audio parts of this Intemational Standard with timing information to form a single stream. Once combined
`into a single stream, the data are in a form well suited to digital storage or transmission. The syntactical
`and semantic rules imposed by this systems specification enable synchronized playback without overflow or
`underflow of decoder buffers under a wide range of stream retrieval or receipt conditions. The scope of
`syntactical and semantic rules set forth in the systems specification differ: the syntactical rules apply to
`systems layer coding only, and do not extend to the compression layer coding of the video and audio
`specifications; by contrast, the semantic rules apply to the combined stream in its entirety.
`
`The systems specification does not specify the architecture or implementation of encoder or decoders.
`However, bitstream properties do impose functional and perfonnance requirements on encoders and decoders.
`For instance, encoders must meet minimum clock tolerance requirements. Notwithstanding this and other
`requirements, a considerable degree of freedom exists in the design and irnpletnentation of encoders and
`decoders.
`
`A prototypical audio/video decoder system is depicted in figure 1 to illustrate the function of an ISO/IEC
`11172 decoder. The architecture is not unique -- System Decoder functions including decoder timing control
`might equally well be distributed among elementary stream decoders and the Medium Specific Decoder -- but
`this figure is useful for discussion. The prototypical decoder design does not imply any normative
`requirement for the design of an ISO/IEC 11172 decoder. Indeed non-audio/video data is also allowed, but
`not shown.

`Figure 1
`
`-- Prototypical ISO/IEC 11172 decoder
`
`The prototypical ISO/IEC 11172 decoder shown in figure 1 is composed of System, Video, and Audio
`decoders conforming to Parts 1, 2, and 3, respectively, of ISO/IEC 11172. In this decoder the multiplexed
`coded representation of one or more audio and/or video streams is assumed to be stored on a digital storage
`medium ODSM), or network, in some medium-specific format. The medium specific fonnat is not governed
`by this International Standard, nor is the medium-specific decoding part of the prototypical ISO/IEC 11172
`decoder.
`
`The prototypical decoder accepts as input an ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed stream and relies on a System
`Decoder to extract timing information from the stream. The System Decoder demultiplexes the stream, and
`the elementary streams so produced serve as inputs to Video and Audio decoders, whose outputs are decoded
`video and audio signals. Included in the design, but not shown in the figure, is the flow of timing
`information among the System Decoder, the Video and Audio Decoders, and the Medium Specific Decoder.

`ISO/IEC m72—1: 1993 (E)
`
`The Video and Audio Decoders are synchronized with each other and with the DSM using this timing
`information.
`
`ISO/IEC 11 172 multiplexed streams are constructed in two layers: a system layer and a compression layer.
`The input stream to the System Decoder has a system layer wrapped about a compression layer. Input
`streams to the Video and Audio decoders have only the compression layer.
`
`Operations performed by the System Decoder either apply to the entire ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed stream
`("multiplex-wide operations"), or to individual elementary streams ("stream-specific operations"). The
`ISO/IEC 11172 system layer is divided into two sub—layers, one for multiplex-wide operations (the pack
`layer), and one for stream-specific operations (the packet layer).
`
`0.1 Multiplex-wide operations (pack layer)
`
`Multiplex—wide operations include the coordination of data retrieval off the DSM, the adjustment of clocks,
`and the management of buffers. The tasks are intimately related. If the rate of data delivery off the DSM is
`controllable, then DSM delivery may be adjusted so that decoder buffers neither overflow nor underflow;
`but if the DSM rate is not controllable, then elementary stream decoders must slave their timing to the
`DSM to avoid overflow or underflow.
`
`ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed streams are composed of packs whose headers facilitate the above tasks. Pack
`headers specify intended times at which each byte is to enter the system decoder from the DSM, and this
`target arrival schedule serves as a reference for clock correction and buffer management. The schedule need
`not be followed exactly by decoders, but they must compensate for deviations about it.
`
`An additional multiplex-wide operation is a decoder's ability to establish what resources are required to
`decode an ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed stream. The first pack of each ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed stream
`conveys parameters to assist decoders in this task. Included, for example, are the stream's maximum data
`rate and the highest number of simultaneous video channels.
`
`0.2
`
`Individual stream operations (packet
`
`layer)
`
`The principal strezun-specific operations are 1) demultiplexing, and 2) synchronizing playback of multiple
`elementary streams. These topics are discussed next.
`
`0.2.1 Demultiplexing
`
`On encoding, lSO/IEC 11172 multiplexed streams are formed by multiplexing elementary streams.
`Elementary streams may include private, reserved, and padding streams in addition to ISO/IEC 11172 audio
`and video streams. The streams are temporally subdivided into packets, and the packets are serialized. A
`packet contains coded bytes from one and only one elementary strezun.
`
`Both fixed and variable packet lengths are allowed subject to constraints in 2.4.3.3 and in 2.4.5 and 2.4.6.
`
`011 decoding, demultiplexing is required to reconstitute elementary strezuns from the ISO/IEC 11172
`multiplexed stream. This is made possible by strearn_id codes in packet headers.
`
`0.2.2 Synchronization
`
`Synchronization among multiple streams is effected with presentation time stamps in the ISO/IEC 11172
`multiplexed stream. The time stamps are in units of 90kHz. Playback of N streams is synchronized by
`adjusting the playback of all streams to a master time base rather than by adjusting the playback of one
`strezun to match that of another. The master time base may be one of the N decoders‘ clocks, the DSM or
`channel clock, or it may be some external clock.
`
`Because presentation time—stamps apply to the decoding of individual elementary streams, they reside in the
`packet layer. End—to-end synchronization occurs when encoders record tirne-stamps at capture time, when
`the time stamps propagate with associated coded data to decoders, and when decoders use those timestamps
`to schedule presentations.
`
`Synchronization is also possible with DSM timing time stzunps in the multiplexed data stream.

`
`0.2.3 Relation to compression layer
`
`It is independent in
`The packet layer is independent of the compression layer in some senses, but not in all.
`the sense that packets need not start at compression layer start codes, as defined in parts 2 and 3. For
`example, a video packet may start at any byte in the video stream. However,
`time stamps encoded in
`packet headers apply to presentation times of compression layer constructs (namely, presentation units).
`
`0.3
`
`System reference decoder
`
`Part 1 of ISO/IEC 11172 employs a "system target decoder," (STD) to provide a formalism for timing and
`buffering relationships. Because the STD is parameterized in terms of fields defined in ISO/IEC 11172 (for
`example, buffer sizes) each ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed stream leads to its own parameterization of the
`STD. It is up to encoders to ensure that bitstreams they produce will play in normal speed, forward play on
`corresponding STDs. Physical decoders may assume that a stream plays properly on its STD; the physical
`decoder must compensate for ways in which its design differs from that of the STD.

`
`Section 1: General
`
`1.1 Scope
`
`This part of ISO/IEC 11172 specifies the system layer of the coding. It was developed principally to
`support the combination of the video and audio coding methods defined in ISO/IEC 11172—?. and ISO/IEC
`11172-3. The system layer supports five basic functions:
`a) the synchronization of multiple compressed streams on playback,
`b) the interleaving of multiple compressed streams into a single stream,
`c) the initialization of buffering for playback start up,
`(1) continuous buffer management, and
`e) time identification.
`
`An ISO/IEC 11172 multiplexed bit stream is constructed in two layers: the outennost layer is the system
`layer, and the innermost is the compression layer. The system layer provides the functions necessary for
`using one or more compressed data streams in a system. The video and audio parts of this specification
`define the compression coding layer for audio and video data. Coding of other types of data is not defined by
`the specification, but is supported by the system layer provided that the other types of data adhere to the
`constraints defined in clause 2.4.
