CAS(Conditional Access System) is used in Pay-TV System to prohibit unauthorized user(s) accessing the contents in IPTV broadcasting environment. In the CAS, Smartcard transfers CW which is necessary in the process of descrambling the scrambled program to STB. CW hacking problem is one of the most serious problems in pay-TV system. There have been many researches on generating secure communication channel between smartcard and STB for secure transmitting, But they had problems in efficiency and security. In this paper, we propose a lightweight key agreement protocol based on a symmetric key algorithm. We show that our proposed protocol is more efficient than existing protocols by comparing the amount of computations, and analyzing the security requirement of the proposed protocol.

IPTV(Internet Protocol Television)is the point in commercial and broadcast content from the numerous channels that are growing exponentially, Many people with mobile devices anywhere, anytime you want to use IPTV, demand will increase. Numerous channels for collecting information about EPG (Electronic Program Guide) service, IP (Internet Protoco) communications using a fast search of content for broadcast EPG is time to take advantage of the service. Using the current wired network, the Android-based IPTV services to take advantage of the EPG in the mobile environment to provide an environment being studied, and Country of the European digital broadcast standard DVB-MHP standard is followed by subsequent research and development of the EPG service is required. In this study, using the existing wired network, IPTV EPG service information of the channel in a mobile environment user-friendly as possible by providing channels for EPG service information to users quickly and easily search for content to provide an environment and Android-based mobile IPTV environment to take advantage of the EPG service channels of broadcast channels with in the EPG service for users to gather information retrieval system is proposed.

In the environment of instant messengers, the recognition of human emotions and its automated representation with personalized 3D character animations facilitate the use of affectivity in the machine-based communication, which will contribute to enhanced communication. This paper describes an emotional messenger system developed for the automated recognition and expression of emotions for IPTVs (Internet Protocol televisions). Aiming for efficient delivery of users' emotions, we propose emotion estimation that assesses the affective contents of given textual messages, character animation that supports both 3D rendering and video playback, and smart phone-based input method. Demonstration and experiments validate the usefulness and performance of the proposed system.

This paper proposes a QoS/QoE guaranteeing scheme by reassembling packets that have already been delivered to the end systems under the condition that there is no other way to fulfill user's QoS/QoE with the current network conditions. The proposed scheme is a QoS/QoE provisioning scheme that can be applied when IPTV streaming packets have not been consecutively received by the receiver. The receiving end system modifies the continuous counter field in the MPEG-2 Transport Stream and reassembles packets based on this information. In the simulation, broadcasting streaming environment has been implemented in order to verity the QoS/QoE performance of the proposed scheme under the good and poor network conditions.

This paper investigated main determinants of paid-VOD user satisfaction and re-purchasing intention in IPTV platform. The findings showed that 'perceived system quality' was the significant antecedent variable influencing 'perceived usefulness' and 'perceived cost'. Meanwhile, 'perceived content quality' had the insignificant effect on 'perceived cost, while strongly and positively affecting 'perceived playfulness'. Regarding the relative size effect on the relationship between the belief variables and re-purchasing intention, content quality, cost, usefulness and playfulness were higher in the order, implying that functional benefits, like price and quality is the most crucial factor facilitating re-purchasing paid-VOD. Likewise, several variables associated with user characteristics and situation were employed as moderating variables to examine their impact on the process of formation of belief, satisfaction and intention. We found that there were distinct differences in value cognition and satisfaction level among users, depending on IPTV acceptance period, paid-VOD purchasing frequency, age and income level.

The Climate Change Convention has a purpose for stabilizing the concentration of greenhouse gases of the atmosphere so that the dangerous and artificial effects may not influence atmosphere systems. We intend to present the model needed to establish the systems able to monitor and control in real time not sticking to places by grafting IPTV technique and setting the monitoring objects of the greenhouse emitting sources of industrial facilities, the estimation instruction of emissions, the guidelines of emission estimation, etc. in order to corresponding to this Climate Change Convention.

This paper studied the effects of service quality and system quality that affect customer's satisfaction and continued usage intention regarding mobile network conditions. The hypotheses and research models were completed using research factors of service quality(reactivity, empathy) and system quality(connectivity, ease of use, channel-mobility) borrowed from previous studies on DMB and IPTV. The hypotheses and research models were verified through experiments and surveys. The key finding showed that customer's expectation on service quality and system quality under fast network(Wifi) was higher than that of under slow network(3G). Furthermore, it showed that users react more sensitive to service quality than to system quality such as network speed. Based on the results, this study has the implication for expanding the understanding of the factors used in previous DMB and IPTV studies by applying them in N-screen domain.

In this paper, we propose video quality control system(VQCS) which can control video service quality through the monitoring of end-to-end available bandwidth for video streaming service like IPTV in NGN convergence network. Various multimedia services such as video, voice and gaming service can be provided by IPTV, and these services require large amounts of bandwidth. At this time, video quality degradation like video jerkiness, block distortion and blurring is caused when network available bandwidth is insufficient. Available bandwidth monitoring method is need to stably control video streaming quality. So, we periodically calculate the amount of the packets in link and measure available bandwidth by using total length field in IP header at terminal. Scalability extractor in network selects suitable video streaming data rate based on available bandwidth and transports video streaming with adaptive data rate to prevent video quality deterioration.

Conditional Access System (CAS) is a core security mechanism of IPTV SCP (Service and Content Protection) which enables only authenticated user to be able to watch the broadcasting contents. In the past, it was general that CAS was built in Set-Top Box (STB) as hardware or as a detachable cable card. However, numerous researches in Downloadable CAS (DCAS), where users can download CAS code in their STB through their network, have been recently conducted widely due to the lack of security and scalability problem. In this paper, the security requirements of OpenCable based DCAS which is typical example of downloadable IPTV SCP will be derived, the novel authentication and key management scheme will be proposed by using the Authentication Proxy (AP) which is the core DCAS. Also, the benefits of the proposed system will be evaluated by comparison and analysis with preceding research.
