Alarm systems - CCTV surveillance systems for use in security applications - Part 5-1: Video transmission - General video transmission performance requirements

This European Standard introduces general requirements on video transmission. A detailed specification on analog video transmission over different media including signal and performance requirements is already defined in prEN 50132-5-3. For the growing number of surveillance applications based on IP video transmission the requirements are defined in 2 standards. This standard covers in the following clauses the general requirements for video transmissions on performance, security and conformance to basic IP connectivity, based on available, well-known, international standards. In areas where more detailed IP requirements are necessary additional specifications are given, in order to reach compatibility. In this European Standard no detailed and special CCTV protocols are defined. In Part 2 of this European Standard, a detailed video IP protocol, messages and commands on top of the general connectivity and performance requirements of Part 1 are defined. Part 2 defines an IP protocol for full interoperability (e.g. PTZ control, eventing, etc.) of video transmission devices used in surveillance applications. The first section of this standard defines the minimum performance requirements on video transmission for security applications in IP networks. In surveillance applications, the requirements on timing, quality and availability are strict and defined in the last section of this standard. Guidelines for network architecture on how these requirements can be fulfilled are given. The second section of this European Standard defines requirements on basic IP connectivity of video transmission devices to be used in security applications. If a video transmission device is used in security, certain basic requirements apply. First of all a basic understanding of IP connectivity needs to be introduced which requests the device to be compliant to fundamental network protocols. These could be requirements which may be applied to all IP security devices even beyond IP video. For this reason, requirements are introduced in a second step for compliance to basic streaming protocols, used in this standard for video streaming and stream control. Since security applications need high availability and reliability, general means for the transmission of the video status and health check events need to be covered. Theses are defined in general requirements on eventing and network device management. In security proper maintenance and setup is essential for the functioning of the video transmission device: Locating streaming devices and their capabilities is a basic requirement and covered in "device discovery and description".

Systèmes d’alarme – Systèmes de surveillance CCTV à usage dans les applications de sécurité - Partie 5-1:Exigences générales de performance pour la vidéotransmission

La présente Norme européenne présente les exigences générales pour la vidéotransmission. Une spécification détaillée concernant la vidéotransmission analogique sur différents supports a déjà été définie dans le prEN 50132-5-3. Celle-ci inclut les exigences relatives au signal et aux performances. Le nombre de plus en plus grand d'applications de surveillance basées sur la vidéotransmission IP a conduit à en définir les exigences dans deux normes. La présente norme couvre dans les articles suivants les exigences générales pour les vidéotransmissions relatives à la performance, la sécurité et la conformité à la connectivité IP de base, fondées sur les normes internationales existantes bien connues. Dans les domaines où des exigences IP plus détaillées sont nécessaires, des spécifications complémentaires sont fournies afin de viser à la compatibilité. Aucun protocole de vidéosurveillance détaillé et particulier n'est défini dans la présente Norme Européenne. Dans la partie 2 de la présente Norme Européenne, un protocole, des messages et des commandes IP vidéo détaillés, se superposant aux exigences générales de connectivité et de performances de la Partie 1, sont définis. La partie 2 définit un protocole IP pour une interopérabilité complète (par exemple, contrôle PTZ (Panoramique/inclinaison/zoom), gestion d'événements, etc.) des dispositifs de vidéotransmission utilisés dans les applications de surveillance. La première partie de la présente Norme définit les exigences de performances minimales de la vidéotransmission pour les applications de sécurité dans les réseaux IP. Dans les applications de surveillance, les exigences relatives à la synchronisation, à la qualité et à la disponibilité sont strictes et elles sont définies dans la dernière partie de la présente Norme. Des recommandations relatives à l'architecture des réseaux sont fournies, ainsi que la façon dont ces exigences peuvent être satisfaites. La deuxième partie de la présente Norme Européenne définit les exigences relatives à la connectivité IP de base des dispositifs de vidéotransmission destinés à être utilisés dans les applications de sécurité. Si un dispositif de vidéotransmission est utilisé dans le domaine de la sécurité, certaines exigences de base s'appliquent. Il est nécessaire de présenter avant tout la compréhension de base de la connectivité IP exigeant que le dispositif soit conforme aux protocoles de réseaux fondamentaux. Ceux-ci peuvent être présentés sous forme d'exigences pouvant être appliquées à tous les dispositifs de sécurité IP, allant même au-delà de la vidéo IP. Pour cette raison, les exigences sont présentées dans une deuxième étape relative à la conformité des protocoles de transfert en flux continu de base utilisés dans la présente norme pour le transfert vidéo en flux continu et le contrôle de flux. Puisque les applications de sécurité nécessitent une forte disponibilité et une grande fiabilité, des moyens généraux pour la transmission d'événements de contrôle d'état et de bon fonctionnement de la vidéo doivent être traités. Ceux-ci sont définis dans les exigences générales relatives à la gestion d'événements et la gestion des dispositifs de réseaux. Dans le domaine de la sécurité, une maintenance et une mise en service correctes sont essentielles pour le fonctionnement du dispositif de vidéotransmission. La localisation des dispositifs de transfert en flux continu ainsi que leurs capacités constituent une exigence de base et sont traitées dans « découverte et description du dispositif ».

Alarmni sistemi - Nadzorni sistemi CCTV za uporabo v aplikacijah varovanja - 5.1. del: Video prenos - Splošne zahteve za zmogljivosti video prenosa

Ta evropski standard predstavlja splošne zahteve v zvezi z video prenosom. Podrobna specifikacija za analogni video prenos prek različnih medijev, vključno z zahtevami za signal in zmogljivosti, je že določena v standardu prEN 50132-5-3. Zahteve za vse večje število nadzornih aplikacij, ki temeljijo na video prenosu IP, so opredeljene v dveh standardih. Ta standard v naslednjih točkah zajema splošne zahteve za video prenose glede zmogljivosti, varnosti in skladnosti z osnovno povezljivostjo IP na podlagi razpoložljivih in dobro poznanih mednarodnih standardov. Na področjih, na katerih so potrebne podrobnejše zahteve v zvezi z IP, so podane dodatne specifikacije, da se doseže združljivost. V tem evropskem standardu niso določeni podrobni in posebni protokoli CCTV. V 2. delu tega evropskega standarda so na podlagi splošnih zahtev glede povezljivosti in zmogljivosti iz 1. dela  podrobneje opredeljeni protokol IP za video, sporočila in ukazi. 2. del določa protokol IP za popolno interoperabilnost (npr. nadzor PTZ, načrtovanje dogodkov itd.) naprav za video prenos, ki se uporabljajo v nadzornih aplikacijah.
Prvi oddelek tega standarda določa najmanjše zahteve za zmogljivost video prenosa aplikacij varovanja v omrežjih IP. Zahteve za časovno načrtovanje, kakovost in razpoložljivost nadzornih aplikacij so stroge in določene v zadnjem oddelku tega standarda. Podane so smernice za omrežno arhitekturo o izpolnjevanju teh zahtev.
Drugi oddelek tega evropskega standarda določa zahteve za osnovno povezljivost IP naprav za video prenos, ki se uporabljajo v aplikacijah varovanja. Če se naprava za video prenos uporablja za varovanje, veljajo nekatere osnovne zahteve. Predstaviti je treba predvsem osnovna načela povezljivosti IP, ki zahtevajo, da je naprava skladna s temeljnimi omrežnimi protokoli. To so lahko zahteve, ki se lahko uporabljajo za vse varnostne naprave IP, ne le za video IP. Zato se zahteve določijo v drugem koraku za skladnost z osnovnimi pretočnimi protokoli, ki se v tem standardu uporabljajo za video pretakanje in nadzor pretoka. Ker aplikacije varovanja zahtevajo visoko razpoložljivost in zanesljivost, je treba zagotoviti splošne načine za prenos dogodkov v zvezi s stanjem in nadzorom kakovosti videa. Ti dogodki so opredeljeni v splošnih zahtevah za načrtovanje dogodkov in upravljanje omrežnih naprav. Pri varnosti sta pravilno vzdrževanje in nastavitev bistvena za delovanje naprave za video prenos. Določitev lokacije pretočnih naprav in njihovih zmogljivosti je osnovna zahteva, ki je opisana v oddelku »odkrivanje in opis naprav«.

Introduction
The European Electrotechnical Standardisation Organisation for alarm systems together with many
governmental organisations, test houses and equipment manufacturers has defined a common framework for
surveillance video transmission in order to achieve interoperability between products.
This video transmission standard is divided into 3 independent parts and sections:
Part 1: General video transmission performance requirements
Part 2: IP video transmission protocols
Part 3: Analog and digital video transmission
Each part offers its own clauses on scope, references, definitions, requirements.
The purpose of the transmission system in a closed circuit television (CCTV) installation is to provide reliable
transmission of video signals between the different types of CCTV equipment in security, safety and
monitoring applications.
Today CCTV surveillance systems reside in security networks using IT infrastructure, equipment and
connections within the protected site itself.

1 Scope
This European Standard introduces general requirements on video transmission. A detailed specification on
analog video transmission over different media including signal and performance requirements is already
defined in prEN 50132-5-3. For the growing number of surveillance applications based on IP video
transmission the requirements are defined in 2 standards. This standard covers in the following clauses the
general requirements for video transmissions on performance, security and conformance to basic IP
connectivity, based on available, well-known, international standards. In areas where more detailed IP
requirements are necessary additional specifications are given, in order to reach compatibility. In this
European Standard no detailed and special CCTV protocols are defined. In Part 2 of this European Standard,
a detailed video IP protocol, messages and commands on top of the general connectivity and performance
requirements of Part 1 are defined. Part 2 defines an IP protocol for full interoperability (e.g. PTZ control,
eventing, etc.) of video transmission devices used in surveillance applications.
The first section of this standard defines the minimum performance requirements on video transmission for
security applications in IP networks. In surveillance applications, the requirements on timing, quality and
availability are strict and defined in the last section of this standard. Guidelines for network architecture on
how these requirements can be fulfilled are given.
The second section of this European Standard defines requirements on basic IP connectivity of video
transmission devices to be used in security applications. If a video transmission device is used in security,
certain basic requirements apply. First of all a basic understanding of IP connectivity needs to be introduced
which requests the device to be compliant to fundamental network protocols. These could be requirements
which may be applied to all IP security devices even beyond IP video. For this reason, requirements are
introduced in a second step for compliance to basic streaming protocols, used in this standard for video
streaming and stream control. Since security applications need high availability and reliability, general means
for the transmission of the video status and health check events need to be covered. Theses are defined in
general requirements on eventing and network device management. In security proper maintenance and
setup is essential for the functioning of the video transmission device: Locating streaming devices and their
capabilities is a basic requirement and covered in "device discovery and description".
