As test is executed in an Ethernet passthrough mode with Customer Premise Equipment (CPE), to provide instant visibility of access network performance., a simple connection between ATUR and SetTop Box is only required to automatically discovers and perform real-time measurement of MPEG-2 Transport Stream(ISO-13818-1) along with PES Header analysis include MPEG-2 Video/Audio, MPEG4-Part2(ISO-14496-2) and H.264/MPEG4-Part10(ISO-14496-10)
Basic functionalities of IPTV Expert Analysis software option (PIM-11X-STPA-IPTV) on CSA passthrough modes are:
- Auto-Discover and Real-Time measurement of MPEG-2 Transport Stream(ISO-13818-1)
- Automatic generation of Host table with IP address, UDP port number
- PSI table reconstruction/decode - PAT,PMT,CAT
- MPEG video/audio packet loss counters accumulated and?Error seconds
- PCR Jitter measurement - Average, Max and?Error seconds
- Stream throughput - Average, Min, Max
- Event log with time stamp by packet loss or PCR jitter out of threshold
- PES Header analysis include MPEG-2 Video/Audio, MPEG4-Part2(ISO-14496-2) and H.264/MPEG4-Part10(ISO-14496-10)
