Rohde & Schwarz LTE Video Quality Measurements with R&S CMWrun 2
Introduction
1 Introduction
The increasing demand for hi-res video applications for mobile phones and tablets makes it necessary to maintain the necessary data rate even under non ideal RF and
IP transmission conditions. The video test system described in this application note consists of an R&S
®
CMW500 Wideband Radio Communication Tester and an
R&S
®
VTE or R&S
®
VTC Video Tester that is controlled by the R&S
®
CMWrun
Measurement Software with an additional VTx feature. The figure below shows this compact, but complete Video over LTE test solution. The R&S
®
CMW acts as an LTE base station sending a video to the DUT via RF under fading or IP impairment conditions. From the mobile device’s MHL / HDMI socket the decoded video signal is fed to the R&S
®
VTE or R&S
®
VTC Video Analyzer.
Fig. 1-1: Video Test System
The CMW-KT051 option contains functions for degrading the video data stream with fading and IP impairment, while the CMW-KT105 option contains functions for configuring and analyzing the video with an R&S
®
VTx Video Tester.
Rohde & Schwarz LTE Video Quality Measurements with R&S CMWrun 3
Introduction
One characteristic for video quality is the channel capacity (kbps) over SNR (Signal to
Noise Ratio) dependency.
Fig. 1-2: Channel Capacity vs. SNR
With no disturber such as fading a picture fails as soon as the channel capacity drops below the threshold. With e.g. EVA 5Hz or EPA 70 Hz the picture failure point is located at significantly higher SNRs, making the signal much more sensitive to signal quality.

Overview
2 Overview
Fig. 2-1: A/V Distortion Analysis
The VTx video analyzer series A/V Distortion Analysis feature compares the video and audio output signal of a DUT with a reference Signal recorded earlier. For recording the reference signal, use the same video material and signal path. The A/V Distortion
Analysis does not evaluate the absolute video and audio quality, but the deviation to a recorded reference. Using a reference signal has the advantage that all scaling happening along the video processing chain is excluded from the test. Instead the performance of the DUT is evaluated and all influence caused by erratic behavior of the DUT or disturbances can reliably be identified.
VTx AV Distortion Analysis allows 3 different methods of referencing:
ı
S
ELF
R
EFERENCED
: Every transmitted single image is compared to the one transmitted before. This requires no reference recording and is used for testing e.g. image stabilizers.
ı
ı
S
TILL
P

: The DUT plays a fixed image in an endless loop. This image is saved once as reference. This method is appropriate for e.g. identifying pixel errors.

: Any A/V sequence with maximally 15 to 60 seconds refresh rate can be used as reference, which is kept the VTx memory during the analysis. The DUT plays the A/V sequence in an endless loop for continuous testing. The example in the following chapter uses

referencing.
In order to analyze single pixels, a frame is scaled to 720x576 pixels and transformed to the Y / Cb / Cr 4:2:0 format. This assures constant speed for the following analysis and is independent from the number of input pixels. When the input pixels are filled with RGB (red/green/blue) color information, they are equivalently recalculated in brightness Y and two color difference components Cb and Cr. Then the color difference information is under sampled twice in horizontal and vertical direction

The capabilities above allow easy test sequence automation for specifying visible and audible errors as fail criteria.
A further feature of the VTx A/V Distortion Analysis is to recognize so called overlays during reference sequence recording. Overlays can be control panels of the playing device, status information or logos that cover part of the video content during playback.
This allows the measurement to focus on the actual video content without being disturbed by unexpected overlay content.

After the reference video has been recorded, the disturbing effects, like fading, IP packet loss rate, delay and jitter are turned ON. In this example all effects run simultaneously. Other test cases might vary only one effect for obtaining the correlation between video quality and e.g. delay.
