RTP Payload Format for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC)
Abstract
This memo describes an RTP payload format for the video coding
standard ITU-T Recommendation H.265 and ISO/IEC International
Standard 23008-2, both also known as High Efficiency Video Coding
(HEVC) and developed by the Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding
(JCT-VC). The RTP payload format allows for packetization of one or
more Network Abstraction Layer (NAL) units in each RTP packet payload
as well as fragmentation of a NAL unit into multiple RTP packets.
Furthermore, it supports transmission of an HEVC bitstream over a
single stream as well as multiple RTP streams. When multiple RTP
streams are used, a single transport or multiple transports may be
utilized. The payload format has wide applicability in
videoconferencing, Internet video streaming, and high-bitrate
entertainment-quality video, among others.

1. Introduction
The High Efficiency Video Coding specification, formally published as
both ITU-T Recommendation H.265 [HEVC] and ISO/IEC International
Standard 23008-2 [ISO23008-2], was ratified by the ITU-T in April
2013; reportedly, it provides significant coding efficiency gains
over H.264 [H.264].
This memo describes an RTP payload format for HEVC. It shares its
basic design with the RTP payload formats of [RFC6184] and [RFC6190].
With respect to design philosophy, security, congestion control, and
overall implementation complexity, it has similar properties to those
earlier payload format specifications. This is a conscious choice,
as at least RFC 6184 is widely deployed and generally known in the
relevant implementer communities. Mechanisms from RFC 6190 were
incorporated as HEVC version 1 supports temporal scalability.
In order to help the overlapping implementer community, frequently
only the differences between RFCs 6184 and 6190 and the HEVC payload
format are highlighted in non-normative, explanatory parts of this
memo. Basic familiarity with both specifications is assumed for
those parts. However, the normative parts of this memo do not
require study of RFCs 6184 or 6190.

1.1. Overview of the HEVC Codec
H.264 and HEVC share a similar hybrid video codec design. In this
memo, we provide a very brief overview of those features of HEVC that
are, in some form, addressed by the payload format specified herein.
Implementers have to read, understand, and apply the ITU-T/ISO/IEC
specifications pertaining to HEVC to arrive at interoperable, well-
performing implementations. Implementers should consider testing
their design (including the interworking between the payload format
implementation and the core video codec) using the tools provided by
ITU-T/ISO/IEC, for example, conformance bitstreams as specified in
[H.265.1]. Not doing so has historically led to systems that perform
badly and that are not secure.
Conceptually, both H.264 and HEVC include a Video Coding Layer (VCL),
which is often used to refer to the coding-tool features, and a
Network Abstraction Layer (NAL), which is often used to refer to the
systems and transport interface aspects of the codecs.
1.1.1. Coding-Tool Features
Similar to earlier hybrid-video-coding-based standards, including
H.264, the following basic video coding design is employed by HEVC.
A prediction signal is first formed by either intra- or motion-
compensated prediction, and the residual (the difference between the
original and the prediction) is then coded. The gains in coding
efficiency are achieved by redesigning and improving almost all parts
of the codec over earlier designs. In addition, HEVC includes
several tools to make the implementation on parallel architectures
easier. Below is a summary of HEVC coding-tool features.
Quad-tree block and transform structure
One of the major tools that contributes significantly to the coding
efficiency of HEVC is the use of flexible coding blocks and
transforms, which are defined in a hierarchical quad-tree manner.
Unlike H.264, where the basic coding block is a macroblock of fixed-
size 16x16, HEVC defines a Coding Tree Unit (CTU) of a maximum size
of 64x64. Each CTU can be divided into smaller units in a
hierarchical quad-tree manner and can represent smaller blocks down
to size 4x4. Similarly, the transforms used in HEVC can have
different sizes, starting from 4x4 and going up to 32x32. Utilizing
large blocks and transforms contributes to the major gain of HEVC,
especially at high resolutions.

Entropy coding
HEVC uses a single entropy-coding engine, which is based on Context
Adaptive Binary Arithmetic Coding (CABAC) [CABAC], whereas H.264 uses
two distinct entropy coding engines. CABAC in HEVC shares many
similarities with CABAC of H.264, but contains several improvements.
Those include improvements in coding efficiency and lowered
implementation complexity, especially for parallel architectures.
In-loop filtering
H.264 includes an in-loop adaptive deblocking filter, where the
blocking artifacts around the transform edges in the reconstructed
picture are smoothed to improve the picture quality and compression
efficiency. In HEVC, a similar deblocking filter is employed but
with somewhat lower complexity. In addition, pictures undergo a
subsequent filtering operation called Sample Adaptive Offset (SAO),
which is a new design element in HEVC. SAO basically adds a pixel-
level offset in an adaptive manner and usually acts as a de-ringing
filter. It is observed that SAO improves the picture quality,
especially around sharp edges, contributing substantially to visual
quality improvements of HEVC.
Motion prediction and coding
There have been a number of improvements in this area that are
summarized as follows. The first category is motion merge and
Advanced Motion Vector Prediction (AMVP) modes. The motion
information of a prediction block can be inferred from the spatially
or temporally neighboring blocks. This is similar to the DIRECT mode
in H.264 but includes new aspects to incorporate the flexible quad-
tree structure and methods to improve the parallel implementations.
In addition, the motion vector predictor can be signaled for improved
efficiency. The second category is high-precision interpolation.
The interpolation filter length is increased to 8-tap from 6-tap,
which improves the coding efficiency but also comes with increased
complexity. In addition, the interpolation filter is defined with
higher precision without any intermediate rounding operations to
further improve the coding efficiency.
Intra prediction and intra-coding
Compared to 8 intra prediction modes in H.264, HEVC supports angular
intra prediction with 33 directions. This increased flexibility
improves both objective coding efficiency and visual quality as the
edges can be better predicted and ringing artifacts around the edges
can be reduced. In addition, the reference samples are adaptively
smoothed based on the prediction direction. To avoid contouring
