The convergence of broadcasting and telecommunication technologies is a key issue of the ubiquitous networks. So this paper offers the convergence of integrated telecommunication networks and broadcasting system, Advanced Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (AT-DMB), and the interconnection of them via the Media Independent Information Server/Service (MIIS). Then, this paper proposes the fast wakeup and connection mechanism with concepts for improving QoS and energy efficiency simultaneously. In the proposed convergence network, our mechanism places the key on the minimization of both the incoming service delay destined to a turned-off interface by using the broadcasting network and the additional energy consumption. This paper further evaluates the performance of proposed mechanism through the numerical and experimental analysis and has confirmed the decrease of both service delay and energy consumption.

2005년 12월 1일 DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) 본 방송이 실시된 이후 다양한 형태의 방송, 통신 융합 서비스가 시도되었다. 그러나 DMB가 성공적으로 시장에 정착하였음에도 불구하고 방송사 등 시장 참여자들의 수익 창출의 어려움, 속도 및 요금 측면에서의 양방향 망의 한계, 방송사, 통신사의 시스템 및 망에 종속적이며 폐쇄적인 콘텐츠 제작 및 제공 방식 등으로 인하여 성공을 거두지 못하였다. 그러나 스마트 폰과 같은 모바일 스마트 디바이스의 성공으로 방송, 통신 서비스 시장에 새로운 전기가 마련되어 다양한 융합 서비스가 시도될 것으로 예상되며, 지상파 DMB가 이러한 다양한 서비스와의 경쟁에서 우위를 점하고 중심 매체로 자리잡기 위해서는 새로운 개념의 융합 서비스 플랫폼이 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 이러한 새로운 개념의 플랫폼인 'HTML5 기반 융합 모바일방송 플랫폼'을 제안하고 실제 구현 예를 통하여 그 가능성을 제시하고자 한다. 제안하는 플랫폼은 누구나 콘텐츠 제공에 참여할 수 있고, 다양한 망, 단말, 서비스 모델이 융합되며, 표준화되고 개방된 API(Application Programming Interface)를 통하여 이를 소비할 수 있도록 하는 개념으로, 방송 콘텐츠 및 이에 의해 파생된 다양한 리치 미디어 콘텐츠의 생성, 전달, 소비에 이르는 생태계 전반에 대한 것이다. 이러한 플랫폼의 가능성을 제시하기 위하여 KBS(Korean Broadcasting System)는 서비스 시스템, 수신 프로그램 개발, 시험 서비스 구현 등의 개발을 진행하고 있으며, 그 결과를 본 논문에서 소개하고자 한다.

The convergence of broadcasting & telecommunication is not a reality by itself, but recognized as a reality by the discourse which defines and explains it. It is the premise from which this article aims at studying how the discourse on the broadcasting-telecommunication convergence is formed, practised and transformed. This study compares the case of France with the case of Korea in order to show how the same discourse can engender different consequences and evolve in a different way in different socio-political situations. The discourse of the convergence was born as a scientific knowledge in the reports of the European Commission and OECD, and accepted as an important object generating social debates. Then, the discourse faces the resistance of pre-existent discourses in France, while it spreads without clash in South Korea. The French discourse results in a horizontal regulation of contents and networks, while the Korean discourse creates a unique regulator for both traditionally distinguished sectors. Finally, unlike France, the scientific discourse of the convergence in South Korea is transformed into even a political, imaginary or utopian discourse.

급변하는 통ㆍ방 융합 시대를 맞아 케이블방송이 새로운 도전에 직면하고 있다. 그 동안 경쟁매체라고 해봐야 지상파와 위성방송 채널 정도였지만 이제 통신과 방송의 융합이라는 거대 조류 속에서 IPTV, TV포털 등 새로운 개념의 방송 서비스와 경쟁해야만 하기 때문이다. 새로운 경쟁자들이 속속 진입하고 있는 방송 시장에서 과연 케이블방송 업계가 수성에 성공할지 관심이 모아지고 있다.

This study analyzes the characteristics of broadcasting law and telecommunication law and suggested the key legitimate of regulation where convergence law would go for in the convergence circumstances by drawing the common and differential characteristics of two laws. Moreover, in the value of inherent pursuit of broadcasting law and telecommunication law, this paper examined whether these values continued to be reflected in the convergence law, and indicated the direction how these values should adopt in the convergence law. The result of this study shows that strong entry regulation has applied to both broadcasting and telecommunications industry. Also, both industries have been required to be universal service to realize the value. Meanwhile, the pursuit of original value of broadcasting law and telecommunication law can be summarized as secure of access and diversity, respectively. In the convergence law, it is necessary to compensate and modify the meaning of access and diversity based on traditional regulation.

전국대비 90%를 웃도는 홈 패스율을 유지하는 케이블 방송망은 본격적인 디지털방송 전환과 맞물려 빠른 속도로 스마트 방송 서비스를 전 국민적으로 확산할 수 있는 유력망으로 거론되고 있다. 케이블 방송망은 고품질 방송 서비스뿐만 아니라 양방향 고속 데이터 서비스를 동시에 수용하는 통합망으로 발전되어 왔으며, 최근에는 신규 융합방송 서비스 및 실감방송 서비스 등의 도입이 가속화됨에 따라 IP 기반 고용량 데이터 송수신에 대한 연구개발이 진행되고 있다. 본고에서는 디지털 케이블 방송망 인프라를 기반으로 미래의 방송 통신 융합 서비스 환경을 제공하기 위한 디지털 케이블방송의 전송기술 개발 및 표준화 동향에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

One of the recent important issues in IT fields is the convergence. It had been simply focused on functional convergence of technologyies. However the convergence in terms of businesses or services also has been made in recent years. The convergence between broadcasting and telecommunication industries can be possible because the e-transformation of broadcasting industry based on digital technology such as multimedia and multi-channel, can be combined with the high speed telecommunication network. It is giving a birth of various convergence services such as IPTV. IPTV is a kind of new service that is combined with the convergence of network, contents, and device. Nevertheless the controversy about the scope and the value of this new convergence service has constantly been raised; for example, what is the difference between IPTV and Internet TV? or what are the benefits that customers can have? This study measured the expectation level and the cognitive level of users before and after using the service and analyzed the gap between the importance and the satisfaction of the service. From this study, we proposed the priority of each function by analysing Importance-Performance Analysis(IPA) method to suggest required functions of IPTV service based on N-Screen technology. This study will identify the gap of awareness level between service providers and end users for the functions of broadcasting and telecommunications convergence service and suggest a solution enhancing user satisfaction.
