6 ETSI TS 103 433-2 V1.1.1 (2018-01)
The goal of ETSI TS 103 433-1 [1] V1.2.1, SL-HDR1, was to standardize a single layer HDR system addressing direct
backwards compatibility i.e. a system leveraging SDR distribution networks and services already in place and that
enables high quality HDR rendering on HDR-enabled CE devices including high quality SDR rendering on SDR CE
devices.
The goal of the present document is to specify enhancements for single layer Perceptual Quantization (PQ) transfer
function based HDR systems, enabled by signal processing blocks that are similar/the same to those in SL-HDR1.
Similar to SL-HDR1, these enhancements will be enabled by use of dynamic metadata and a post processor in the
Consumer Electronics device.
Pre-processing
At the distribution stage, an incoming HDR signal is analysed and content-dependent dynamic metadata is produced.
This dynamic metadata can be produced in an automatic process or in a manual process where the image quality
resulting of the metadata that has been set manually is judged on an SDR grading monitor. This dynamic metadata can
be used to create an optimal picture for a display that has different characteristics, most noticeably a different maximum
luminance, than the display used when grading the HDR content. The HDR signal is encoded with any distribution
codec (e.g. HEVC as specified in part 1 [1], Annex A) and carried throughout an HDR distribution network with
accompanying metadata conveyed on a specific channel or embedded in an HDR bitstream. The dynamic metadata can
for instance be carried in an SEI message when used in conjunction with an HEVC codec. The pre-processor that
produces dynamic metadata is not a normative requirement of the present document. Nonetheless, the pre-processor is
expected to produce a dynamic metadata stream matching the syntax specified in Annex A and Annex B.
Post-processing
The post-processing stage occurs just after HDR bitstream decoding. The post-processing takes as input an HDR video
frame and associated dynamic metadata and the characteristic of the attached HDR compliant rendering device in order
to optimize the HDR picture for the rendering device as specified in clause 7.
Structure of the present document
The present document is structured as follows. Clause 1 provides the scope of the current document. Clause 2 provides
references used in the present document. Clause 3 gives essential definitions, symbols and abbreviations used in the
present document. Clause 4 provides information on the end to end system. Clause 5 details the architecture of the HDR
system. Clause 6 specifies the format of the content-based dynamic metadata common to systems based on ETSI TS
103 433 multi-part documents. Specifically to the present document, the metadata are produced during the HDR-to-
SDR decomposition stage and they enable reconstruction of the SDR signal from the decoded HDR signal using those
metadata. Clause 7 specifies the reconstruction process of the SDR signal and an HDR signal that is adapted to the
maximum luminance of the presentation display. The dynamic metadata format specified in clause 6 is normatively
mapped from SEI messages representative of SL-HDR system that are specified for HEVC and AVC respectively in
Annex A and Annex B. Informative Annex C and Annex D provide information on an HDR-to-SDR decomposition
process, and a gamut mapping process. Informative Annex E describes a way to transfer dynamic metadata by
embedding it in the video transferred over a CE digital video interface. Informative Annex F proposes a recovery
procedure when dynamic metadata are detected as missing by the post-processor during the HDR signal reconstruction.
The recovery procedure may also be applied in case it is desirable to replace the original metadata by a fixed tone
mapping function, e.g. when graphics overlays are inserted on the decoded video by a mid-device (e.g. STB) which
transmits SL-HDR reconstruction metadata as well as the mixed video to an SL-HDR capable TV. Eventually,
informative Annex G gives reference to a standard mechanism to carry SL-HDR reconstruction metadata through
interfaces and Annex H provides a recommendation on the maximum presentation display luminance that display
adaptation can be used with.
The structure of the present document is summarized in Table 1.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the HDR-to-HDR/SDR content-based dynamic metadata and the post-decoding process
2
enabling reconstruction from the specified metadata and an HDR signal of an SDR signal (100 cd/m or less) or an
2
HDR signal with a maximum luminance ranging from 100 cd/m to a maximum luminance that is higher than that of
the original HDR signal. This reconstruction process is typically invoked in a Consumer Electronics device such as a
TV set, a smartphone, a tablet, or a Set Top Box. Besides, it provides information and recommendations on the usage of
the described HDR system.
