Traditional broadcasting environment is merged with various interactive broadcasting services, and the users use these services through Set-Top-Boxes. But they have limited user interfaces, which are not suitable for TV environments by adopting internet formats. Therefore, this paper suggests a User Navigating Interface which helps the audiences to select and watch their favorite channels more effectively. Firstly, this paper analyzes EPG interface - the most basic service in interactive broadcasting. Secondly, it suggests a user interface and service structure suitable in the network-integrated TV environment.

In this paper, we describe the architecture of interactive data broadcasting server that can transmit the various data-service contents of the Terrestrial DMB(digital multimedia broadcasting). In the broadcasting environment of the Terrestrial DMB, we enjoys the PADS(program associated data service), or the PIDS(program independent data service) to be executed on various T-DMB terminals as well as the basic video or audio services. This server provides the function such as the data contests management, data channel management, service information configure, return channel connection. Etc. Particularly, this system provides the method to create and transfer the application signaling information for the T- DMB middle application based the java language.

Since the specifications of public services in broadcasting-telecommunication convergence environment are not standardized, the public services should be developed and presented by each IPTV service provider, and therefore it is worried that public organizations and IPTV service providers may invest in the public services redundantly, which are managed inefficiently. To resolve those problem, in this paper, the service and network interfaces among multiple public organizations and multiple IPTV service providers and the interactive VOD-type public service providing system of one source multi-use based on ACAP-J are proposed. The proposed system can be utilized in the standard platform of the evolved new public services. And the used technologies can be utilized as a guide for the development of new services.

In this paper, we analyze the capability of satellite broadcasting systems to offer different levels of quality of service (QoS). We focus on the European telecommunications standards institute satellite digital radio and digital video broadcasting satellite handheld (DVB-SH) standards, which have recently been proposed for satellite broadcasting communications. We propose a strategy to provide different levels of QoS for the DVB-SH standard on the basis of an extension of the interleaving scheme, referred to as molded interleaver, which supports low latency service requirements for interactive services. An extensive analysis based on laboratory measurements shows the benefits of this solution. We also present a multilevel coding (MLC) scheme with multistage decoding designed for broadcasting communications as an alternative to the existing standards, where services with different levels of QoS are provided. We present a graphical method based on mutual information for the design and evaluation of MLC systems used for broadcasting communications. Extensive simulations for a typical satellite channel show the viability of the proposed MLC scheme. Finally, we introduce multidimensional constellations in the proposed MLC scheme in order to increase the number of different protection levels.

Because of the explosive growth of mobile devices and development of network technologies, HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) adaptive streaming has become a new trend in video delivery to provide efficient multimedia streaming services. As interest in personalized broadcasting grows, the study of interactive multimedia has been actively pursued. The interactive multimedia service is a method of playing media according to a scenario selected by the user. Providing the interactive multimedia service with the existing HTTP adaptive streaming causes switching delay and buffer underflow according to the point in time when the user selects the scenario while the client streams the interactive multimedia and therefore decreases the user QoE (Quality of Experience). In this paper, we propose an adaptive streaming scheme for interactive multimedia service in HTTP adaptive streaming to provide seamless playback. We design the architecture and prefetching scheme for interactive multimedia streaming.

In this Paper, we analyze the application of Interactive Data Broadcasting in DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) in the accordance with convergence of service and technology. With the acceleration of digital convergence in the Ubiquitous period substantial development of digital media technology and convergence of broadcasting and telecommunication industry are being witnessed. Consequently these results gave rise to newly combined-products such as DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting), WCDMA(Wide-band code division multiple access), Wibro(Wireless Broadband Internet), IP-TV (Internet protocol TV) and HSDPA(High speed downlink packet access). The preparatory stage for the implementation of Interactive Data Broadcasting Service will be reached by the end of December, 2006. DMB is the first result of a successful convergence service between Broadcasting and Telecommunication in new media era. Multimedia technology and services are the core elements of DMB. The Data Broadcasting will not only offer various services of interactive information such News, Weather, Broadcasting Program etc, but also be linked with characteristic function of mobile phone such as calling and SMS(Short Message Service) via Return Channel.

With the help of information technology, PVR has been evaluated as an innovative device that brings epochal changes for program selection and convenience of receivers with the convergence between broadcasting and telecommunication. Satellite broadcasters introduced PVR service to strengthen its interactive function. This study analyzed PVR user behavior and how it changed the existing TV viewing behavior through satellite subscribers. The results revealed that PVR subscribers mainly used it for time shifting like VCR use. FUrthermore, heavy PVR users watched TV more than on average and enjoyed a divers genre of programs. This study provides scholarly implication for PVR using behavior and its effects and its useful information for contents and marketing strategy to help PVR service popularization.

This study is conducted to achieve following two purposes. First, this study investigates domestic conditions and problems of data broadcasting industry. Second, this study suggests the improving way of the legal and administrative systems in order to promote domestic data broadcasting industry. Survey was conducted with 16 companies and a few business men for gaining data of general condition and analyzing problems about domestic data broadcasting industry. The results are as follow: first, domestic industry was suffering from the lack of man power, finance, and the delay of data broadcasting service schedule. Second, respondents argued there was no the legal basis and the systematic regulation under the current digital broadcasting policy of government. To resolve those problems, this paper proposed the making laws preparing for the fusion service of communication and broadcasting, systematic assistance of government, the way of technology development and technical standardization, and the way of constructing infrastructure and cultivating man power.
