Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
1. Introduction
The Framework for Conferencing with the Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP) defined in RFC 4353 [RFC4353] presents an overall architecture
for multi-party conferencing. Among others, the framework borrows
from RTP [RFC3550] and extends the concept of a mixer entity
"responsible for combining the media streams that make up a
conference, and generating one or more output streams that are
delivered to recipients". Every participant would hence receive, in
a flat single stream, media originating from all the others.
Using such centralized mixer-based architectures simplifies support
for conference calls on the client side since they would hardly
differ from one-to-one conversations. However, the method also
introduces a few limitations. The flat nature of the streams that a
mixer would output and send to participants makes it difficult for
users to identify the original source of what they are hearing.
Mechanisms that allow the mixer to send to participants cues on
current speakers (e.g. the CSRC fields in RTP [RFC3550]) only work
for speaking/silent binary indications. There are, however, a number
of use cases where one would require more detailed information.
Possible examples include the presence of background chat/noise/
music/typing, someone breathing noisily in their microphone, or other
cases where identifying the source of the disturbance would make it
easy to remove it (e.g. by sending a private IM to the concerned
party asking them to mute their microphone). A more advanced
scenario could involve an intense discussion between multiple
participants that the user does not personally know. Audio level
information would help better recognize the speakers by associating
with them complex (but still human readable) characteristics like
loudness and speed for example.
One way of presenting such information in a user friendly manner
would be for a conferencing client to attach audio level indicators
to the corresponding participant related components in the user
interface as displayed in Figure 1.

Figure 1: Displaying detailed speaker information to the user by
including audio level for every participant.
Implementing a user interface like the above requires analysis of the
media sent from other participants. In a conventional audio
conference this is only possible for the mixer since all other
conference participants are generally receiving a single, flat audio
stream and have therefore no immediate way of determining individual
audio levels.
This document specifies an RTP extension header that allows such
mixers to deliver audio level information to conference participants
by including it directly in the RTP packets transporting the
corresponding audio data.
2. Terminology
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119].
3. Protocol Operation
According to RFC 3550 [RFC3550] a mixer is expected to include in
outgoing RTP packets a list of identifiers (CSRC IDs) indicating the
sources that contributed to the resulting stream. The presence of
such CSRC IDs allows RTP clients to determine, in a binary way, the
active speaker(s) in any given moment. RTCP also provides a basic
mechanism to map the CSRC IDs to user identities through the CNAME
Ivov, et al. Expires September 15, 2011 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
field. More advanced mechanisms, may exist depending on the
signaling protocol used to establish and control a conference. In
the case of the Session Initiation Protocol [RFC3261] for example,
the Event Package for Conference State [RFC4575] defines a <src-id>
tag which binds CSRC IDs to media streams and SIP URIs.
This document describes an RTP header extension that allows mixers to
indicate the audio-level of every conference participant (CSRC) in
addition to simply indicating their on/off status. This new header
extension is based on the "General Mechanism for RTP Header
Extensions" [RFC5285].
Each instance of this header contains a list of one-octet audio
levels expressed in -dBov, with values from 0 to 127 representing 0
to -127 dBov(see Section 4 and Section 5). Appendix A provides a
reference implementation indicating one way of obtaining such values
from raw audio samples.
Every audio level value pertains to the CSRC identifier located at
the corresponding position in the CSRC list. In other words, the
first value would indicate the audio level of the conference
participant represented by the first CSRC identifier in that packet
and so forth. The number and order of these values MUST therefore
match the number and order of the CSRC IDs present in the same
packet.
When encoding audio level information, a mixer SHOULD include in a
packet information that corresponds to the audio data being
transported in that same packet. It is important that these values
follow the actual stream as closely as possible. Therefore a mixer
SHOULD also calculate the values after the original contributing
stream has undergone possible processing such as level normalization,
and noise reduction for example.
Note that in some cases a mixer may be sending an RTP audio stream
that only contains audio level information and no actual audio.
Updating a (web) interface conference module may be one reason for
this to happen.
It may sometimes happen that a conference involves more than a single
mixer. In such cases each of the mixers MAY choose to relay the CSRC
list and audio-level information they receive from peer mixers (as
long as the total CSRC count remains below 16). Given that the
maximum audio level is not precisely defined by this specification,
it is likely that in such situations average audio levels would be
perceptibly different for the participants located behind the
different mixers.
Ivov, et al. Expires September 15, 2011 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
4. Header Format
The audio level indicators are delivered to the receivers in-band
using the "General Mechanism for RTP Header Extensions" [RFC5285].
The payload of this extension is an ordered sequence of 8-bit audio
level indicators encoded as per Section 5.
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| ID | len |0| level 1 |0| level 2 |0| level 3 ...
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 2: Audio level indicators extension format
The 4-bit len field is the number minus one of data bytes (i.e. audio
level values) transported in this header extension element following
the one-byte header. Therefore, the value zero in this field
indicates that one byte of data follows. A value of 15 is not
allowed by this specification and it MUST NOT be used as the RTP
header can carry a maximum of 15 CSRC IDs. The maximum value allowed
is therefore 14 indicating a following sequence of 15 audio level
values.
Note that use of the two-byte header defined in RFC 5285 [RFC5285]
follows the same rules the only change being the length of the ID and
len fields.
5. Audio level encoding
Audio level indicators are encoded in the same manner as audio noise
level in the RTP Payload Comfort Noise specification [RFC3389] and
audio level in the RTP Extension Header for Client-to-mixer Audio
Level Notification [I-D.ietf-avtext-client-to-mixer-audio-level]
specification. The magnitude of the audio level is packed into the
least significant bits of one audio-level byte with the most
significant bit unused and always set to 0 as shown below in
Figure 3.
Ivov, et al. Expires September 15, 2011 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
|0| level |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 3: Audio Level Encoding
The audio level is expressed in -dBov, with values from 0 to 127
representing 0 to -127 dBov. dBov is the level, in decibels, relative
to the overload point of the system, i.e. the maximum-amplitude
signal that can be handled by the system without clipping. (Note:
Representation relative to the overload point of a system is
particularly useful for digital implementations, since one does not
need to know the relative calibration of the analog circuitry.) For
example, in the case of u-law (audio/pcmu) audio [ITU.G.711], the 0
dBov reference would be a square wave with values +/- 8031. (This
translates to 6.18 dBm0, relative to u-law's dBm0 definition in Table
6 of G.711.)
To simplify implementation of the encoding procedures described here,
this specification provides a sample Java implementation (Appendix A)
demonstating one way it can be achieved.
6. Signaling Information
The URI for declaring the audio level header extension in an SDP
extmap attribute and mapping it to a local extension header
identifier is "urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:csrc-audio-level". There
is no additional setup information needed for this extension (i.e. no
extensionattributes).
An example attribute line in the SDP, for a conference might be:
a=extmap:7 urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:csrc-audio-level
The above mapping will most often be provided per media stream (in
the media-level section(s) of SDP, i.e., after an "m=" line) or
globally if there is more than one stream containing audio level
indicators in a session.
Presence of the above attribute in the SDP description of a media
stream indicates that some or all RTP packets in that stream would
contain the audio level information RTP extension header.
Conferencing clients that support audio level indicators and have no
mixing capabilities SHOULD always include the direction parameter in
Ivov, et al. Expires September 15, 2011 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
the "extmap" attribute setting it to "recvonly". Conference focus
entities with mixing capabilities MAY omit the direction or set it to
"sendrecv" in SDP offers. Such entities SHOULD set it to "sendonly"
in SDP answers to offers with a "recvonly" parameter and to
"sendrecv" when answering other "sendrecv" offers.
The following Figure 4 and Figure 5 show two example offer/answer
exchanges between a conferencing client and a focus, and between two
conference focus entities.

7. Security Considerations
1. This document defines a means of attributing audio level to a
particular participant in a conference. An attacker may try to
modify the content of RTP packets in a way that would make audio
activity from one participant appear as coming from another.
2. Furthermore, the fact that audio level values would not be
protected even in an SRTP session may be of concern in some cases
where the activity of a particular participant in a conference is
confidential.
3. Both of the above are concerns that stem from the design of the
RTP protocol itself and they would probably also apply when using
CSRC identifiers the way they were specified in RFC 3550
[RFC3550]. It is therefore important that according to the needs
of a particular scenario, implementors and deployers consider use
of a lower level security and authentication mechanism.
8. IANA Considerations
This document defines a new extension URI that, if approved, would
need to be added to the RTP Compact Header Extensions sub-registry of
the Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) Parameters registry, according
Ivov, et al. Expires September 15, 2011 [Page 9]
Internet-Draft Mixer-to-client Audio Level Indication March 2011
to the following data:
Extension URI: urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:csrc-audio-level
Description: Mixer-to-client audio level indicators
Contact: emcho@jitsi.org
Reference: RFC XXXX
9. Open Issues
At the time of writing of this document the authors have no clear
view on how and if the following list of issues should be address
here:
1. Audio levels in video streams. This specification allows use of
audio level values in "silent" audio streams that don't otherwise
carry any payload thus allowing their delivery within systems
where the various focus/mixer components communicate with each
other as conference participants. The same train of thought may
very well justify audio level transport in video streams.
2. It has been suggested to reference ITU P.56 [ITU.P56.1993] for
level measurement. This needs to be investigated.

Appendix A. Reference Implementation
This appendix contains Java code for a reference implementation of
the level calculation and rendering methods.The code is not normative
and by no means the only possible implementation. Its purpose is to
help implementors add audio level support to mixers and clients.
The Java code consists of the following files and methods:
AudioLevelCalculator.java: Calculates the sound pressure level of a
signal with specific samples. Can be used in mixers to generate
values suitable for the level extension headers.
AudioLevelRenderer.java: Helps adjust a sequence of pressure levels
so that they would appear "natural" to users. Can be used by
clients and applied over the values received in a level extension
header so that displayed levels would change smoothly and
correspond to user experience.
The implementation is provided in Java but does not rely on any of
the language specific and can be easily ported to another.
