SG9–R17

1 General

The fifth Study Group 9 meeting in the Study Period 2017-2020 was held fully virtual, from 16 to 23 April 2020 inclusive. The SG9 meeting was attended by sixty-nine (69) participants from sixteen (16) countries. All sessions were supported by remote participation through the remote connection tool available at ITU MyMeetings , due to the COVID-19 and force majeure.

The list of participants can be found in SG9-TD679-R1.

This ITU-T SG9 meeting was planned to be held in Tokyo, Japan in co-location with a workshop “The Future of Television for Asia & Pacific”, jointly organized by the ITU Standardization Sector (ITU-T), the ITU-Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) and the ITU Development Sector (ITU-D). The Management of SG9 decided to postpone the workshop to 19 October 2020, in Tokyo when the 6th and last SG9 meeting in this Study Period was planned to be held from 14 to 21 October 2020. However, due to COVID-19 evolution, SG9 Management may need to reconsider these plans.

The meeting was a paperless and fully virtual meeting.

1.1 Account of resources used and fellowships provided

– The meeting was in English only.– TSB did not grant fellowships, since this meeting was held fully virtual.

2 Opening remarks and special provisions during this fully virtual meeting

The Chairman of SG9, Mr Satoshi MIYAJI, KDDI, Japan, opened the e-meeting by thanking ITU Headquarters for hosting the ITU-T SG9 meeting fully virtual, despite the unprecedented times, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

He welcomed the ITU-T SG9 participants and wished them all the best for a successful and fruitful e-meeting. The Chairman also wished all the best to the Vice-Chairs and WP1 and WP2 Chairmen, the TSB Advisor, Mr Polidori, as well as the rest of the Management team for successful future broadband cable networks collaboration in SG9.

Before starting the meeting the Chairman requested SG9 participants to consider the document SG9-TD795 “Remote participation guide for SG9 meeting”. The document was presented in detail and SG9 participants were requested to consider approval of its provisions and content.

SG9 approved SG9-TD795 and therefore agreed that for this e-meeting remote participants were allowed to express their views in decision-making sessions, such as SG9 plenaries, due to “force majeure” of COVID-19” under the auspices of SG9-TD795.

SG9 Chairman also stressed the need to enhance efficiency in a fully virtual meeting. So, in agreement with Working Parties Chairmen the WPs sessions were canceled and relevant business will be considered during the SG9 Plenaries. No comments were expressed by SG9 participants.

After these introductory provisions were finalized, SG9 Chairman invited the TSB Director, Mr Chaesub Lee, to welcome SG9 participants. Mr Lee regretted that due to the coronavirus pandemic it was not possible to visit Tokyo as planned. He was pleased that the Government of Japan proposed to host next SG9 meeting, which was tentatively planned in Tokyo from 14 to 21 October 2020.

Mr Lee underlined the importance of ICTs and telecommunication, especially in crisis situations like COVID-19. For the current meeting SG9 would be using a new remote participation tool, which has been developed within the ITU by the TSB.

About 80 delegates were registered for this e-meeting, from around 20 countries. Mr Lee confirmed the positive trend and interests from the cable community to SG9, which is a dynamic group that

SG9–R17

was able to increase its momentum since the beginning of this Study Period. SG9 is recognized to have led the development of a new series of workshops on the Future of TV in various regions of the world and that was a remarkable initiative. Next of these events was also planned in Tokyo in October and in the future SG9 plans to meet in Africa to support even better that region.

Mr Lee recognized a growing number of ITU Members and Associates to Study Group 9 which continued to expand: very recently two well-known companies joined SG9: Sky Group from UK and Cox Communication from USA. He welcomed these new members and encourage them to take an active role in SG9 as was recently done by Cablelabs, Skyworth Digital, Movielabs, Synamedia, among others.

SG9 is very active in Cable, Broadband and TV standardization focusing on end-to-end transmission control and interfaces, including terminal devices, software operating systems and APIs. Not only SG9 looks at converged services and applications taking advantage of latest cloud technologies, but SG9 is laying the foundation for future standards that exploit Artificial Intelligence to enhance cable systems functions and accessibility for persons with disabilities. A new Question on Accessibility will be operational from this meeting and AI will be the focus of a new Question in next Study Period. Mr Lee was pleased to hear these developments in SG9.

Finally, Mr Lee commended especially the work of security and content protection led by Question 2/9 that was finalizing a set of Embedded Common Interface -related Recommendations, which were under TAP approval process. He called the attention of experts to make every effort to reaching consensus despite the challenges under the experienced leadership of SG9 Chairman, Mr Satoshi Miyaji.

Mr Lee was also pleased as under the leadership of its Chairman, SG9 had advanced a lot the preparation towards WTSA-20, which will set the future directions for the whole standardization Sector of the ITU. Solid inputs from all Study Groups, including SG9, will certainly help guiding that process.

Mr Lee invited all to contact Mr. Stefano Polidori, SG9 Advisor, for any assistance needed.

Also, Mr Bilel Jamoussi (Chief of the TSB/SG Department) joined the opening and closing Plenaries. He highlighted the positive momentum of SG9 in terms of participation and Contributions, as well as the good spirit of collaboration of its delegates connected remotely, who give life to ITU-T and their great dedication to Cable TV standardization.

- 21 -

SG9–R17

The first meeting of Q11/9 started on 17 April 2020 at 1130 (CEST) with the Chair’s welcome.

The meeting reports of last three IRG-AVA meetings were presented and reviewed. Renaming the term accessibility services to personalization services was mentioned. Also, the need of common meta data and user profiles format as well as the present status of work on closed captioning by ITU-R SG 6 were discussed.

The liaison statements received by Q11/9 were reviewed, the Chair presented the Question ITU-R 145/6 and explained various points that are planned to be adapted to Q11/9.

The Chair presented a technical document on the vision of Q11/9 (TD806). It proposes a participation taxonomy and its planned use to identify existence, utility and quality of accessibility services. Prioritizing the need of accessibility services based on financial feasibility and offering essential features first, like making the electronic program guide accessible to people with different range of abilities, was discussed.

It was proposed to incentivize students to work on accessibility services through ITU Kaleidoscope and other academic events. The chair mentioned similar conferences on accessibility and noted lack of research on accessibility of Broadband and Cable TV. It was also mentioned the EU Easy TV project and new use cases like haptic interfaces or use of subtitles for people with autism were emphasized.

It was mentioned that an appropriate nomenclature for traditional TV viewer and content to be consumed by people with accessibility needs, could be subject for discussion. The term “consumed content” was mentioned as one option to identify a generic term, considering users with visual and hearing impairments.

Finally, the mandate of SG9 and the text of Q11/9 for next Study Period were reviewed. The Chairman invited experts to check and propose revisions to the current descriptions on accessibility for the next study period, as required, during the special session on restructuring planned on 21 April.One output liaison statements was approved by this meeting to be sent to IRU-R SG6, ITU-T SG16, IRG-AVA and JCA-AHF (see SG9-TD825).
