This paper focuses on effects that IPTV will have on domestic broadcasting market in the point of view of customers. The purpose of the paper is to present the future landscape of competitive media market when IPTV is launched, and to research how IPTV will have impact on terrestrial broadcasting, cable TV and satellite broadcasting industry. The paper integrates two known theories, such as the niche-gratification model and the value-expectancy model, to analyze competitive media market. The value expected model makes it possible to overcome the weakness of the niche-gratification model and to forecast competitiveness more accurately. According to this research, competitive power will be in the order of Cable TV, IPTV, and satellite broadcasting. Terrestrial broadcasting does not show strong competitive relationships with others statistically. As a result, Cable TV will be the most competitive medium in the future. IPTV will be stuck in the middle and can rapidly substitute for existing broadcasting services. While IPTV will severely threaten the satellite broadcasting company which has a relatively small number of subscribers, cable TV will be in a superior position to IPTV.

While the broadband network and multimedia technology are being developed, the commercial market on digital contents as well as IPTV has been widely spreading. Especially IPTV is providing various useful services since it makes using multimedia contents easier and more convenient by combining the strong points of both TV and PC system. Until now, IPTV system has been focused on VoD service as a general usages. However, various IPTV services are recently demanded since they can have special features for some specific places and occasions. So in this paper, we propose a design of the download based IPTV system using user-specific channel management. At first, program contents previously scheduled by users are downloaded and are played at settop-box according to the prescribed time table. This system has some advantages of giving users easy access to any wanted media contents in anytime that is IPTV's characteristics. And we can increase stability of services by using time slot distributed download for contents. Because this service can be constructed and maintained at relatively low cost, we confirm that this service model is more suitable to some companies with small infrastructure and special purposes. Accordingly, in this paper, we look into necessary elements and define some protocols for system in order to help other developer build this system.

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) through broadband cable network is a subscriber-based system which consists of software and set-top box. However, a weakness for the current IPTV system is the lack of security between users and CAS. This paper proposes a user authentication protocol at STB, which limits the service by the user-valued attribute to prevent illegal IPTV users. User attribute values change the order with bit form according to the certain rule, and apply to one-way hash function and Diffie-Hellman's elliptic curve key-exchange algorithm. The proposed protocol is able to improve on user authentication and computation. Also, each user generates an authentication message by smart card and receives various services based on the user-valued attribute.

In this paper, we propose system design and implementation of FLV Move Picture Solution based on IDC apply to Mini IPTV. IDC of energy minimize and Green Data Center design resources make use of maximization, and Mini IPTV of diverse contents service provider and network provider offer Mini IPTV customers to transmit network. at this time implemented on the improve Move Picture of motion blur and compressibility using FLV solution file format and a compression technique, and reduced traffic cost and solved security question. specially, on the web quickly growing a branch of e-Learning wish to be of help.

This study examines the factors influencing internet protocol television (IPTV) usage intention. Using Davis's technology acceptance model (TAM) and DeLone and McLean's model of information system success, this study investigates the effects of information system quality (information quality, system quality, and service quality) and media quality on IPTV use in terms of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and usage intention. We examined the proposed model by employing structural equation modeling and survey data from 222 IPTV users. The results indicate that information quality, service quality, and media quality had significant effects on perceived usefulness and that information quality and media quality had significant effects on perceived ease of use. However, system quality had no effect on perceived usefulness or perceived ease of use. In addition, perceived ease of use influenced perceived usefulness, and perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use influenced IPTV usage intention. Further, the stability and reliability of IPTV services encouraged IPTV use, and successful IPTV services showed high media quality.

IPTV service is one of the representatives for the integration of broadcasting industry and communication industry, which also can meet users' various demands and provide efficient service. As the increasing number of IPTV users and contents servers, it is necessary to provide the safety authority system to prevent the illegal audio-visual, incorrect audio-visual authority, and illegal authority control. This thesis puts forward PKI(public Key Infrastructure) as the foundation key production mechanism. Through this mechanism, the key can be transferred safely to users and authenticate the ID of users and contents servers. In a word, our system can provide safe and efficient service for mutual authentication.

This paper presents the mobile IPTV system for the transmission of FGS-encoded video stream over WiMAX network. The proposed system is implemented to provide more subscribers with an improved mobile IPTV service considering the scarce resource constraint. The proposed system pursues an efficient tradeoff between the number of subscribers that receive the enhancement layer stream and their IPTV service quality. In the proposed system, some parts of the enhancement layer are transmitted with the modulation scheme and the coding rate adaptive to wireless link states of subscribers. Finally, experimental results are provided to show the performance of proposed mobile IPTV system.

As IPTV has become one of the major Internet services, IPTV users and channels increase rapidly. However, the increased number of channels makes users difficult to find their desired channels. Along with this, the channel switching time of IPTV incurs serious user-perceived delay. To alleviate these problems, this paper presents hybrid schemes that combine channel prefetching and reordering schemes. Simulation experiments show that combining adjacency based prefetching and popular channel reordering reduces the channel seek time by up to 44.7% in comparison with the conventional channel seeking interfaces.

The multimedia streaming service in NGN architecture is not only to deliver video streaming (VoD, Broadcasting TV, etc.) but also to provide new services and service bundles, such as Triple Play (IPTV + VoIP + Internet). Among these services, Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is becoming a convergence of communication, content, computing, as well as an integration of broadcasting and telecommunication services. In this paper, we addresses enhanced IPTV management scheme aspect of E2E from Home Network to Head End Center over NGN to support efficient service management with a full quality of service (QoS) guarantee.

The multimedia contents are diffused rapidly. Also, the course individual service of communication and broadcasting coexists with each other and develop to the integrated fusion service with development of the high speed broadband IP network technology. The IPTV which is representative broadcasting a communication total service is the powerful application field. The communication industry has been interested in data processing of the high-definition that supports many kinds of internet service by internet protocol. In this paper, we configure the standard routing protocol use in the small scaled, on RIP environment and the link status routing protocol use the large scale autonomous network, on OSPF environment. We also measure and evaluate broadcasting quality by PSNR(Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio). Finally, we propose the network construction plan for IPTV services which are efficient.
