In this paper, we present a model-based video bit rate estimation scheme for reducing the bit rate while maintaining a subjective quality in many video streaming services limited by network bandwidth, such as IPTV services. First, we extract major parameters which serve as an indirect measurement of frame's bits. Using those parameters, the proposed bit rate estimation scheme can extract candidate frames. Finally, the bit rate of each segment is estimated by statistical analysis and a mathematical model based on a given target quality. In experimental results, we show that the proposed scheme can reduce the bit rate on average by 43% in low-complexity video while maintaining the subjective quality. To find the appropriate bit rate based on video contents, the proposed schemes can estimate the bit rate with neither the repeated full encoding nor subjective quality test. On average, the bit rate can be automatically estimated by encoding the candidate frames of 4%.

D-CATV VOD service provides various contents such as drama and movie with high quality regardless of time and place. As the usage time of the VOD service increases, the viewing time of real-time terrestrial broadcasting is shortened. As the demand for VOD service is high and the number of digital users is increasing, the VOD market is rapidly growing. Therefore this study investigates the age and gender analysis of digital cable TV users and analyzed the usage patterns and audience cases of users. VOD service has been shown to be used by many users for the first time through remote control and free coupons. Non-users of VOD service did not use it because of charge and did not feel the necessity, but some non-users did not recognize the free VOD service.

Currently was Convergence time of broadcasting and communication with development of information communication technology and internet infra environment. The superhigh speed internet about under using there is IPTV where it provides the broadcasting contents with broadcasting and communication Convergence service. Digital broadcasting it makes various broadcasting in one stream and it transmits, and about under analyzing it uses Channel information which is included in broadcasting and broadcasting information from the terminal. But, IPTV transmits each broadcasting in multicast methods, therefore the possibility of knowing all Channel information and broadcasting information from the terminal it is not there is a problem point. This paper hereupon it searched IPTV broadcasting information from the terminal and in order to support a channel selection from IPTV broadcasting streams SI about under extracting SD&S XML documents it created and it transmits with the distant multicast the system which plan and it embodied.

오디오와 음성 압축 기술적 근간은 서로 다르지만, 최근의 모바일 멀티미디어 기기 시장의 컨버전스 현상에 따라 압축하고자 하는 신호가 혼용되고 있으며, 비슷한 목표 전송률과 음질로 수렴하고 있다. 현재는 동일 기기에서 서로 다른 압축 기술을 적용하고 있으나, 음성과 음악이 동시에 서비스 되는 멀티미디어 기기에서는 단일 압축 방식으로 처리하고자 하는 이슈가 부각되고 있다. 특히, 스마트 폰 및 음악 콘텐츠 포탈 서비스의 대중화를 고려할 때, 음성 및 음악 신호 모두를 효율적으로 압축하는 음악 및 음성 신호의 융합 압축 기술이 더욱 필요해 보인다. 본 고에서는 MPEG 오디오 그룹에서 가장 최근 진행한 Unified Speech and Audio Coding(USAC)의 탄생 배경 및 표준화 현황을 소개한다. USAC는 64kbps 이하에서 기술적으로 최고 성능을 지닌 AMR-WB+ 및 HE-AAC v2보다도 우월한 음질을 보이며, 높은 비트율에서도 동등한 음질을 보장한다. 이런 우수한 음질에 기여한 USAC의 스위칭 구조와 더불어 기술적으로 향상된 주요 모듈인 파라미터 기반 스테레오 및 고주파 압축, 그리고 엔트로피 코딩 방식에 대해서 살펴 본다. 향후, 다양한 오디오 신호를 효율적으로 압축하는 USAC는 디지털 라디오, 모바일 TV, 그리고 오디오 북과 같은 사용자 시나리오에서 사용될 확률이 높아 보인다. 또한, USAC는 배경 잡음이나 배경 음악이 있는 경우에도 성능이 우수하기 때문에 YouTube 및 podcast 등과 같이 사용자가 콘텐츠를 생성할 때도 유용하게 사용 될 수 있다.

Recently, interest in metaverse, which creates new value in the real world, has increased. In order to make it easy to experience such a metaverse, we have developed an experiential metaverse AR game in which users take the lead in exploring the environment and enjoying content based on landmarks. Important features of the metaverse include connectivity with the real world, interactivity, and digital currency. The game seeks to extend daily life through AR and satisfies interaction through real-time chat and team competition. Finally, digital currency is built through a store system. It is implemented as a mobile game and can be accessed at any time if there is a smartphone, increasing accessibility.

31 December 2012 will be the end of terrestrial analog broadcasting. Digital broadcasting will begin. The picture quality on analog broadcasting, was not a problem. but, In digital broadcasting, is a problem. Service for streaming on the digital broadcasting MPEG video compression. And the content is added block noise. These block noise measured by people's eyes. but, people's eyes is subjective. In this paper, the on-reference methods to detect block noise. And detected by measuring the distribution of block noise, to quantify the levels of block-noise. With this study, block noise by visual inspection using an automated tool, by being objective measure of information and communication will contribute to the development of the video.

Currently broadcasting and telecommunication has integrated, And IPTV Service has appeared who called TPS(Triple Play Service) which integrated with broadcasting, telecommunication and Phone Service. IPTV provide broadcasting service and VOD(Video on Demand) service, and it must be satisfied digital content security. For this condition, IPTV Forum working on standardization of interface for digital content security. The Security solution for broadcasting and VOD are CAS (Conditional Access System) and DRM(Digital Rights Management). But these solutions manufactured by many vendors, so there is no inter-operability. And after finished standardization of interface for CAS and DRM system, the problem of inter-operability with them will be issued. For this reason, Rights management system which possible to operate independently with platform is necessary. In this paper, To protect multimedia digital content, we designed and implemented Conditional Access Management System.

As the digital broadcasting era settled in, the TV, which was only used to watch broadcast programs, developed as a medium for operating various data services. This means that an environment, in which the viewers' TV usage behavior can be changed from a passive attitude to an attitude of actively consuming the media, has been established. Since the advertising market is an industry that is heavily influenced by changes in the media, these changes causes changes in the form of advertising and the advertising consumption behavior of viewers. In this environment, the broadcasting industry needs to think about the new growth strategy that links the possibility of data service with the advertisement market. In this study, we designed a data service that provides supplementary information of an ID advertisement, which has the weakness of short exposure time and shortage of information expression space. Specifically, we have designed the usage scenario and user interface of the data service and developed a method, based on the international digital broadcasting standard DV B, that provides the supplementary information defined by the type of ID advertisement to the data service.

N-Screen era is held due to the cloud computing technology which access to contents anytime, anywhere without any persistent. In the broadcast industry, this broadcast contents is rapidly serviced by variety of media devices such as PC, Smart phone, Tablet, App, IPTV. To Increase the usefulness and usability of the platform, same brand identity have to be maintain by devices and integrated guide which can encompass a variety of media are needed. This study tries to figure out the need of New Media Style Guide to keep brand identity in a variety of new media beyond previously Web style guide which limited in the Web pages. First, Integrated Guide GEL of BBC's and Web style guide of KBS was analyzed. Through the analysis it was found that the limitations and problem of the current web style guide and then suggested the improvement direction. In addition, this study tried to find which design elements should be made for new media style guides through in-depth interview with practitioners who work in broadcast media industry for more than three years. Through the research it was understood the current status of integrated brand identity and found a way to improve forward to new media platforms of KBS.
