Foreword
This Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) has been produced by the Terminal
Equipment (TE) Technical Committee and approved by Multimedia Terminals and Applications (MTA)
Project of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
An ETSI standard may be given I-ETS status either because it is regarded as a provisional solution ahead
of a more advanced standard, or because it is immature and requires a "trial period". The life of an I-ETS
is limited to three years after which it can be converted into an ETS, have its life extended for a further two
years, be replaced by a new version, or be withdrawn.
This I-ETS is part 1 of a multipart standard covering "Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN);
audiovisual services in-band signalling testing", as described below:
Part 1: "Test Suite Structure and Test Purpose (TSS & TP) specification";
Part 2: "Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing
(PIXIT) proforma ";
Part 3: "Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification".
Proposed announcement date
Date of adoption: 24 October 1997
Date of latest announcement of this I-ETS (doa): 28 February 1998

1 Scope
This Interim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS) is part 1 of a three part I-ETS dealing with
conformance testing of Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) Videotelephony terminals. Part 2
contains the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) in Tree and Tabular Combined Notation (TTCN) and the partial
Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT) proforma. Part 3 provides the Protocol
Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma specification.
This I-ETS contains the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS & TP) for conformance testing the
in-band signalling aspects of an ISDN Videotelephony terminal which uses one or two B channels, and
which implements the frame structure and associated syntax as specified in ETS 300 144 [2] and the in-
band signalling procedures as specified in ETS 300 143 [1]. No testing of data commands or applications
is included among the tests. Test Purposes (TPs) for signal content of the B-channel are included in this
part of the I-ETS but no corresponding test cases have been included in part 2. Restricted network
operation is outside the scope of this I-ETS.
It may be possible to use these TPs in order to test a non-ISDN Videotelephony terminal, as long as it
provides one or two 64 kbit/s digital channels for transmission. It may also be possible to use the majority
of these TPs to test in-band signalling implementations according to ETS 300 143 [1] and ETS 300 144 [2]
using single or multiple channels up to 1 920 kbit/s.

5 Naming convention and document structure
This I-ETS is structured into 9 clauses. Clauses 1 to 3 deal with the scope, references and abbreviations.
Clause 4 onwards forms the main body. Clause 5 contains the Test Suite Structure (TSS). Clauses 6 and
7 contain the complete list of TPs which apply to the in-band signalling specifications referenced above:
clause 6 applying to 1B communication and clause 7 applying to 2B communication. Clauses 8 and 9 also
refer to 1B and 2B respectively, but contain the list of combined TPs.
In this I-ETS, TPs are referenced with TP, Combined Test Purposes are referenced with CTP. Super Test
Purposes are referenced with SP, with corresponding derived Test Purposes having D appended to the
reference. SPs are only used if they provide clarification of an obscure TP.
Each TP contained in clauses 6 and 7 also appears in clauses 8 and 9 respectively. Clauses 8 and 9
contain combined TPs, i.e. TPs which can be tested together in one test case. Each combined TP
contains references to the original, uncombined TPs contained within it, from clauses 6 and 7. Any TPs
which cannot be combined with others have been copied from clauses 6 and 7 into clauses 8 and 9
respectively, with unchanged references. Therefore, clauses 8 and 9 contain the complete set of TPs, and
there is a one to one mapping between these TPs and the corresponding test cases in the ATS in part 2
of this I-ETS.
TPs which do not have abstract test cases written for them are listed in italics. The usual reason for not
writing a test case lies in the fact that they are testing transmission or reception of audio or video signals
by the Implementation Under Test (IUT). The selected test method used in the abstract test suite does not
have a Point of Control and Observation (PCO) for sending and receiving audio or video signals. The
testing of audio or video signal content is outside the scope of testing in-band signalling content and to
specify a sample audio or video content in the ATS would introduce unnecessary complication. Of course,
if another test method is being used to implement the TPs contained in this I-ETS, then these test cases
shown in italics could be implemented.
It is recommended that, despite the fact that testing audio and video signal content is outside the scope of
this I-ETS, a test tool implementing the in-band signalling test cases should include audio and video
signals to match the Bit rate Allocation Signal (BAS) commands which it is sending. This avoids a terminal
implementing a mode mismatch procedure when it does not detect the correct audio or video signal,
which would prevent any testing from being carried out.

Page 12
I-ETS 300 763-1: November 1997
Test Purposes carry the following numbering scheme:
TP1-1-001D or CTP2-3-001:
- the first digit following TP or CTP refers to whether the test is for 1 B-channel operation or 2
B-channel operation (1 or 2);
- the second digit refers to:
1) capability tests;
2) valid behaviour tests; or
3) invalid behaviour tests;
- the number following that is a sequence number.
The numbering used in each TP will also be used in its corresponding test case, but a TC prefix will be
used, rather than TP or CTP. Of the two examples above, the first refers to a TP in 1B Capability clause,
derived from a SP, the second refers to a test from 2B Invalid behaviour clause, a combined TP.
The separation of the tests into 1B-channel operation and 2B-channel operation has the following
explanation: Almost all of the tests of the 1 B-channel operation clause will also apply to terminals offering
a 2B service. These tests will only be performed when one B channel is operational however. Therefore,
2B terminals will have to satisfy tests from both the 1B and the 2B clauses. This approach was adopted
because much of the frame structure, mode initialization and mode switching tests do not refer to 2B
specifically. Indeed much of this operation needs to be performed on the initial channel before a second
channel is established. Thus, there is no duplication of tests between 1B and 2B channel operation.
In the following TPs, the statement "verify IUT accepts." occurs regularly. The IUT is considered to have
accepted a capability set containing the capability BAS code under test when Sequence A has been
completed successfully and commands are being exchanged. The IUT is considered to have accepted a
BAS command if it does not initiate a mode mismatch procedure within 2 seconds of receiving the
command.
6 Test Suite Structure
Two versions of the Test Suite Structure are presented here. The first is the structure which applies to the
TPs in clauses 6 and 7 of this I-ETS, i.e. the full list of TPs. The second Test Suite Structure is that which
applies to the set of combined TPs, i.e. clauses 8 and 9 of this I-ETS. As there is a one-to-one mapping
between these combined TPs and the test cases in the ATS, this second Test Suite Structure also applies
to the ATS. The two structures exist because certain groups of TPs were merged during the combination
of TPs.

bits 2 to 8 of the service channel in each even frame, in the initial channel.
TP1-1-002: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.1 paragraph 2]
Verify that, the IUT sets bit 8 of the second byte of every second-fourth-sixth. 80 byte frame to "1", i.e. bit
2 of the service channel in each odd frame, in the initial channel.
TP1-1-003: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.2 paragraph 1 and 2]
Verify that the IUT sets bit 8 of byte 1 of frames 1,3,5,7,9,11 of each group of 16 frames (numbered
0 to 15) where each frame is 80 bytes long, to "001011", i.e. bit 1 of the service channel in frames
1,3,5,7,9,11 in each multiframe of 16 frames, in the initial channel.
TP1-1-004: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.2 paragraph 3]
Verify that the IUT sets bit 8 of byte 1 of frame 15 of each group of 16 frames (numbered 0 to 15) where
each frame is 80 bytes long, to "0", i.e. bit 1 in the service channel of frame 15 in each multiframe of 16
frames (numbered 0 to 15), in the initial channel.
7.1.1.2 Alignment
TP1-1-005: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.5.1]
Verify that, at the initiation of a call, when the IUT is searching for frame alignment, if the network provides
byte timing, the IUT uses this as its receive byte timing.
TP1-1-006: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 5.1 paragraph 3]
Verify that, when the network provides byte timing, the IUT uses it in the transmission side.
TP1-1-007: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 5.1 paragraph 4]
Verify that the IUT searches for FAS in all received bit positions.
TP1-1-008: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 5.1 paragraph 4, subclause 6.5 paragraph 1]
Verify that, when there are conflicts between received FAS position and the received network byte timing,
the IUT takes its received byte timing from the FAS position.
TP1-1-009: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.3 paragraph 1 and paragraph 4]
Verify that, when the IUT detects in three successive frames the presence of the first correct seven bits of
the FAW, followed by the eighth bit of the Frame Alignment Word (FAW), followed by, once again, the first
correct seven bits of the FAW, the IUT considers that frame alignment has been gained.
TP1-1-010: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.1 paragraph 3]
Verify that the IUT, if it only needs to search for frame alignment, when it acquires frame alignment, sets
to "0" bit 8 of the third byte at every second-fourth-sixth. 80 byte frame, i.e. bit 3 of the service channel in
each odd frame.
SP001: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.4 paragraph 1]
Verify that the IUT, when it has no use for multiframe alignment on the incoming signal, transmits outgoing
A=0 when frame alignment is recovered.
TP1-1-011D: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.4 paragraph 1]
Verify that, if the IUT supports 1 B-channel communication only, and does not search for multiframe
alignment in the incoming signal, when the IUT receives multiframe structure from the remote terminal,
when the IUT detects on the initial channel bits 2 to 8 of the SC of a frame (even frame) set to "0011011",
followed by a frame (odd frame) which contains bit 2 of the SC set to "1" (the eighth bit of the FAW),
followed by a frame (even frame) with, for a second time bits 2 to 8 of its SC set to "0011011", the IUT
sets the A-bit of its following outgoing odd frames to "0" in the initial channel.

TP1-1-012: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.5.1 paragraph 1]
Verify that, as soon as the IUT has gained frame alignment for the first time, the IUT initializes the receive
byte timing at the new bit position.
TP1-1-013: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.5.1 paragraph 1]
Verify that, after the IUT has gained frame alignment for the first time and does not loose frame alignment
during the next 16 frames, the IUT validates the receive byte timing.
TP1-1-014: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.1 paragraph 3]
Verify that the IUT, when it receives frame and multiframe structure, sets to "0" bit 8 of the third byte at
every second-fourth-sixth. 80 byte frame, i.e. bit 3 of the service channel in each odd frame.
7.1.1.3 Bits N1-N5
TP1-1-015: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.2 paragraph 4]
Verify that, if the IUT sends multiframe numbering, it sends bits N1, N2, N3, N4 in the bit position 1 of FAS
of frames 0-2-4-6 of each 16 frame multiframe, with the Least Significant Bit (LSB) transmitted in frame 0
and the Most Significant Bit (MSB) in frame 6, where N1, N2, N3, N4 is a modulo 16 counter to number
multiframes in the initial channel.
TP1-1-016: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.2 paragraph 4]
Verify that, if the IUT sends multiframe numbering, it uses bits N1, N2, N3, N4 as a modulo 16 counter to
number multiframes in descending order, with the LSB transmitted in frame 0 and the MSB in frame 6, in
the initial channel.
TP1-1-017: [ETS 300 144 [2] subclause 6.2 paragraph 7]
Verify that, if the IUT sends multiframe numbering, it sends "1" in bit 1 of FAS of frame 8 (N5) of each
numbered multiframe in the initial channel for at least three consecutive multiframes.
