1.  Introduction

   This document describes use cases and requirements that guide the
   specification of a simple, low-latency media delivery solution for
   ingest and distribution [MOQ-charter], using either the QUIC protocol
   [RFC9000] or WebTransport [WebTrans-charter].

1.1.  Note for MOQ Working Group participants

   This version of the document is intended to provide the MOQ working
   group with a starting point for work on the "Use Cases and
   Requirements document" milestone.  The update implements the work
   plan described in [MOQ-ucr].  The authors intend to request MOQ
   working group adoption after IETF 115, so the working group can begin
   to focus on these topics in earnest.

2.  Terminology

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
   "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
   BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all
   capitals, as shown here.

3.  Use Cases Informing This Proposal

   Our goal in this section is to understand the range of use cases that
   are in scope for "Media Over QUIC" [MOQ-charter].

   For each use case in this section, we also describe

   *  the number of senders or receiver in a given session transmitting
      distinct streams,
   *  whether a session has bi-directional flows of media from senders
      and receivers, which may also include timely non-media such as
      haptics or timed events.

   It is likely that we should add other characteristics, as we come to
   understand them.

3.1.  Interactive Media

   The use cases described in this section have one particular attribute
   in common - the target the lowest possible latency as can be achieved
   at the trade off of data loss and complexity.  For example,

   *  It may make sense to use FEC [RFC6363] and codec-level packet loss
      concealment [RFC6716], rather than selectively retransmitting only
      lost packets.  These mechanisms use more bytes, but do not require
      multiple round trips in order to recover from packet loss.
   *  It's generally infeasible to use congestion control schemes like
      BBR [I-D.draft-cardwell-iccrg-bbr-congestion-control] in many
      deployments, since BBR has probing mechanisms that rely on
      temporarily inducing delay, but these mechanisms can then amortize
      the consequences of induced delay over multiple RTTs.

   This may help to explain why interactive use cases have typically
   relied on protocols such as RTP [RFC3550], which provide low-level
   control of packetization and transmission, with addtional support for
   retransmission as an optional extension.

3.1.1.  Gaming

                   +=====================+============+
                   | Attribute           | Value      |
                   +=====================+============+
                   | *Senders/Receivers* | One to One |
                   +---------------------+------------+
                   | *Bi-directional*    | Yes        |
                   +---------------------+------------+

                                 Table 1

   Where media is received, and user inputs are sent by the client.
   This may also include the client receiving other types of signaling,
   such as triggers for haptic feedback.  This may also carry media from
   the client such as microphone audio for in-game chat with other
   players.

3.1.2.  Remote Desktop

                   +=====================+============+
                   | Attribute           | Value      |

                   +---------------------+------------+

                                 Table 2

   Where media is received, and user inputs are sent by the client.
   Latency requirements with this use case are marginally different than
   the gaming use case.  This may also include signalling and/or
   transmitting of files or devices connected to the user's computer.

3.1.3.  Video Conferencing/Telephony

                  +=====================+==============+
                  | Attribute           | Value        |
                  +=====================+==============+
                  | *Senders/Receivers* | Many to Many |
                  +---------------------+--------------+
                  | *Bi-directional*    | Yes          |
                  +---------------------+--------------+

                                 Table 3

   Where media is both sent and received; This may include audio from
   both microphone(s) and/or cameras, or may include "screen sharing" or
   inclusion of other content such as slide, document, or video
   presentation.  This may be done as client/server, or peer to peer
   with a many to many relationship of both senders and receivers.  The
   target for latency may be as large as 200ms or more for some media
   types such as audio, but other media types in this use case have much
   more stringent latency targets.

3.2.  Hybrid Interactive and Live Media

   For the video conferencing/telephony use case, there can be
   additional scenarios where the audience greatly outnumbers the
   concurrent active participants, but any member of the audience could
   participate.  As this has a much larger total number of participants
   - as many as Live Media Streaming Section 3.3.3, but with the bi-
   directionality of conferencing, this should be considered a "hybrid".
   There can be additional functionality as well that overlap between
   the two, such as "live rewind", or recording abilities.

3.3.  Live Media

   The use cases in this section like those in Section 3.1 do set some
   expectations to minimise high and/or highly variable latency, however
   their key difference is that are seldom bi-directional as their basis
   is on mass-consumption of media or the contribution of it into a
   platform to syndicate, or distribute.  Latency is less noticeable
   over loss, and may be more accepting of having slightly more latency
   to increase guarantee of delivery.

                                 Table 4

   Where media is received from a source for onwards handling into a
   distribution platform.  The media may comprise of multiple audio and/
   or video sources.  Bitrates may either be static or set dynamically
   by signaling of connection information (bandwidth, latency) based on
   data sent by the receiver.

3.3.2.  Live Media Syndication

                   +---------------------+------------+
                   | *Bi-directional*    | No         |
                   +---------------------+------------+

                                 Table 5

   Where media is sent onwards to another platform for further
   distribution.  The media may be compressed down to a bitrate lower
   than source, but larger than final distribution output.  Streams may
   be redundant with failover mechanisms in place.

3.3.3.  Live Media Streaming

   Where media is received from a live broadcast or stream.  This may
   comprise of multiple audio or video outputs with different codecs or
   bitrates.  This may also include other types of media essence such as
   subtitles or timing signalling information (e.g. markers to indicate
   change of behaviour in client such as advertisement breaks).  The use
   of "live rewind" where a window of media behind the live edge can be
   made available for clients to playback, either because the local
   player falls behind edge or because the viewer wishes to play back
   from a point in the past.

4.  Requirements for Protocol Work

   Our goal in this section is to understand the requirements that
   result from the use cases described in Section 3.

4.1.  Notes to the Reader

   *  Note: the intention for the requirements in this document is that
      they are useful for MOQ working group participants, to recognize
      constraints, and useful for readers outside the MOQ working group
      to understand the high-level functionality of the MOQ protocol, as
      they consider implementation and deployment of systems that rely
      on the MOQ protocol.

4.2.  Specific Protocol Considerations

   In order to support the various topologies and patterns of media
   flows with the protocol, the protocol MUST support both sending and
   receiving of media streams, as separate actions or concurrently in a
   given connection.

4.2.1.  Delivery Assurance vs. Delay

   Different use cases have varying requirements with respect to the
   tradeoffs associated in having guarantee of delivery vs delay - in
   some (such as telephony) it may be acceptable to drop some or all of
   the media as a result of changes in network connectivity, throughput,
   or congestion whereas in other scenarios all media must arrive at the
   receiving end even if delayed.  There SHOULD be support for some
   means for a connection to signal which media may be abandoned, and
   behaviours of both senders receivers defined when delay or loss
   occurs.  Where multiple variants of media are sent, this SHOULD be
   done so in a way that provides pipelining so each media stream may be
   processed in parallel.

Internet-Draft       MoQ Use Cases and Requirements           March 2023

4.2.2.  Support Webtransport/Raw QUIC as media transport

   There should be a degree of decoupling from the underlying transport
   protocols and MoQ itself despite the "Q" in the name, in particular
   to provide future agility and prevent any potential ossification
   being tied to specific version(s) of dependant protocols.

   Many of the use cases will be deployed in contexts where web browsers
   are the common application runtime; thus the use of existing
   protocols and APIs is desireable for implementations.  Support for
   WebTransport [I-D.draft-ietf-webtrans-overview] will be defined,
   although implementations or deployments running outside browsers will
   not need to use WebTransport, thus support for the protocol running
   directly atop QUIC should be provided.

   Considerations should be made clear with respect to modes where
   WebTransport "falls back" to using HTTP/2 or other future non-QUIC
   based protocol.

4.2.3.  Media Negotiation & Agility

   All entities which directly process media will have support for a
   variety of media codecs, both codecs which exist now and codecs that
   will be defined in the future.  Consequently the protocol will
   provide the capability for sender and receiver to negotiate which
   media codecs will be used in a given session.

   The protocol SHOULD remain codec agnostic as much as possible, and
   should allow for new media formats and codecs to be supported without
   change in specification.

   The working group should consider if a minimum, suggestive set of
   codecs should be supported for the purposes of interop, however this
   SHOULD avoid being strict to simplify use cases and deployments that
   don't require certain capability e.g. telephony which may not require
   video codecs.

4.3.  Media Data Model

   As the protocol will handle many different types of media,
   classifications, and variations when all entities describe the media
   a model should be defined which represents this, with a clear
   addressing scheme.  This should factor in at least, but not limited
   to allow future types:

   Media Types  Video, audio, subtitles, ancillary data

   Classifications  Codec, language, layers

Gruessing & Dawkins     Expires 14 September 2023               [Page 8]
Internet-Draft       MoQ Use Cases and Requirements           March 2023

   Variations  For each stream, the resolution(s), bitrate(s).  Each
      variant should be uniquely identifiable and addressable.

   Considerations should be made to addressing of individual audio/video
   frames as opposed to groups, in addition to how the model
   incorporates signalling of prioritisation, media dependency, and
   cacheability to all entities.

4.4.  Publishing Media

   Many of the use cases have bi-directional flows of media, with
   clients both sending and receiving media concurrently, thus the
   protocol should have a unified approach in connection negotiation and
   signalling to send and received media both at the start and ongoing
   in the lifetime of a session including describing when flow of media
   is unsupported (e.g. a live media server signalling it does not
   support receiving from a given client).

   In the initiation of a session both client and server must perform
   negotiation in order to agree upon a variety of details before media
   can move in any direction:

   *  Is the client authenticated and subsequently authorised to
      initiate a connection?
   *  What media is available, and for each what are the parameters such
      as codec, bitrate, and resolution etc?
   *  Can media move bi-directionally, or is it unidirectional only?

4.5.  Naming and Addressing Media Resources

   As multiple streams of media may be available for concurrent sending
   such as multiple camera views or audio tracks, a means of both
   identifying the technical properties of each resource (codec,
   bitrate, etc) as well as a useful identification for playback should
   be part of the protocol.  A base level of optional metadata e.g. the
   known language of an audio track or name of participant's camera
   should be supported, but further extended metadata of the contents of
   the media or its ontology should not be supported.

4.5.1.  Scoped to an Origin/Domain, Application specific.

4.5.2.  Allows subscribing or requesting for the data matching the name
        by the consumers

Internet-Draft       MoQ Use Cases and Requirements           March 2023

4.6.  Packaging Media

   Packaging of media describes how encapsulation of media to carry the
   raw media will work.  There are at a high level two approaches to
   this:

   *  Within the protocol itself, where the protocol defines the
      carrying for each media encoding the ancillary data required for
      decoding the media.
   *  A common encapsulation format such as ISOBMFF which defines a
      generic method for all media and handles ancillary decode
      information.

   The working group must agree on which approach should be taken to the
   packaging of media, taking into consideration the various technical
   trade offs that each provide.  If the working group decides on a
   common encapsulation format, the mechanisms within the protocol
   SHOULD allow for new encapsulation formats to be used.

4.7.  Media Consumption

   Receivers SHOULD be able to as part of negotiation of a session
   Section 4.2.3 specify which media to receive, not just with respect
   to the media format and codec, but also the varient thereof such as
   resolution or bitrate.

4.8.  Relays, Caches, and other MOQ Network Elements

4.8.1.  Pull & Push

   To enable use cases where receivers may wish to address a particular
   time of media in addition to having the most recently produced media
   available, both "pull" and "push" of media SHOULD be supported, with
   consideration that producers and intermediates SHOULD also signal
   what media is available (commonly referred to as a "DVR window").
   Behaviours around cache durations for each MoQ entity should be
   defined.

4.9.  Security

4.9.1.  Authentication & Authorisation

   Whilst QUIC and conversely TLS supports the ability for mutual
   authentication through client and server presenting certificates and
   performing validation, this is infeasible in many use cases where
   provisioning of client TLS certificates is unsupported or infeasible.
   Thus, support for a primitive method of authentication between MoQ
   entities SHOULD be included to authenticate entities between one

   another, noting that implementations and deployments should determine
   which authorisation model if any is applicable.

4.9.2.  Media Encryption

   End-to-end security describes the use of encryption of the media
   stream(s) to provide confidentiality in the presence of unauthorized
   intermediates or observers and prevent or restrict ability to decrypt
   the media without authorization.  Generally, there are three aspects
   of end-to-end media security:

   *  Digital Rights Management, which refers to the authorization of
      receivers to decode a media stream.
   *  Sender-to-Receiver Media Security, which refers to the ability of
      media senders and receivers to transfer media while protected from
      authorized intermediates and observers, and
   *  Node-to-node Media Security, which refers to security when
      authorized intermediaries are needed to transform media into a
      form acceptable to authorized receivers.  For example, this might
      refer to a video transcoder between the media sender and receiver.

   **Note: "Node-to-node" refers to a path segment connecting two MOQ
   nodes, that makes up part of the end-to-end path between the MOQ
   sender and ultimate MOQ receiver.

   Support for encrypted media SHOULD be available in the protocol to
   support the above use cases, with key exchange and decryption
   authorisation handled externally.  The protocol SHOULD provide
   metadata for entities which process media to perform key exchange and
   decrypt.
