The input of digital TV software is the Transport Stream, which utilizes the moving picture compression technique, MPEC-2 (Moving Picture Experts Groups-2). MPEG-2 TS consists of the complicated table hierarchy and internal relationships, as well as the various restrictions with regards to system standard of digital TV software in determining the field values of transport stream. However, the general MPEG-2 TS generation tool produces transport streams solely based on the MPEG-2 TS specification itself, and does not consider the interaction between modulo features or modules themselves, which construct digital TV software. In this paper, we propose a method to systematically generate MPEG-2 TS test data, namely‘Test Stream’, for digital TV software. We present the experiment result where the test stream derived from our developed tool according to the proposed method was applied to the actual digital TV software settop-box, and then analyze the result. Apart from other existing MPEG-2 TS generation tools, the advantage of our method is that not only is it capable of generating various levels of test streams including digital TV software module, integration, and system testing, but also detecting errors and analyzing their causes.

MPEG-4 is a digital bit stream format and associated protocols for representing multimedia content consisting of natural and synthetic audio, video and object data. This paper describes an application where multiple audio/visual data stream are combined in MPEG-4 and transported via MPTG-2 transport streams(TS). Also, this paper describes how to convert MPEG-4 Over MPEG-2 TS bit streams into MP4 file which Is designed to contain the media information of an MPEG-4 presentation in a flexible, extensible format. MPEG-4 is presented in the form of audio-visual objects that are arranged into an audio-visual scene by means of a scene descriptor and is composed of the audio-visual objects by means of an object descriptor. These descriptor streams are not defined MPEG-2 TS. So. this paper focuses on handling of these descriptors and parsing TS streams to get MPEG-4 data. The MPEG-4 Over MPEG-2 TS to MP4 format converter is implemented in the demonstrated systems.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-2 시스템 층의 하나인 방송 및 전송을 위한 Transport Stream (TS)상에 MPEG-4 데이터를 구조화하여 MPEG-4 Over MPEG-2 TS 비트스트림을 만드는 방법과 이를 저장 매체 포맷중 하나인 MP4 파일로 변환 설계에 관한 연구이다. MPEG-4는 객체 단위의 부호화 비트스트림으로 구성되어 있기 때문에 이들 객체의 속성을 표현하는 객체기술자, 객체들간의 시공간 관계를 표현하는 장면기술자가 필요하며 또한 모든 객체들간의 복호와 정보와 객체간의 동기화를 위해 여러 가지 기술자들이 필요한데 바로 이런 다양한 MPEG-4 비트스트림을 어떻게 MPEG-TS 규격에 맞게 전송하는가에 초점을 두었다.

In this paper, we describe a software implementation of a digital TV stream analyzer that can be used for analyzing and verifying digital TV bitstreams on personal computes. It accepts as input MPEG-2 transport streams (TS's) already stored on hard disks and doesn't require any special hardware. After classifying TS packets into program specific information(PSI) TS section auido, video, program clock reference (PCR) private data and null packets, it displays their contents through a graphic user interface along with the syntax elements of the TS header. Also it displays the decoded I frame nearest in time axis the TS packet currently shown This feature helps pin pointing the specific location of problematic parts in bitstreams. The bitsteam analyzer provides the compliance test of MPEG-2 Systems standard and the data injection functionality with which one can easily insert additional data to existing MPEG-2 bitstreams. Using the resulting system one can produce at low test streams for interactive broadcasting and data broadcasting for laboratory use.

본 논문에서는 디지털 TV 방송 스트림을 분석, 검증하기 위한 시스템을 PC 상에서 소프트웨어 기반으로 구현하였다. 저장되어 있는 MPEG-2 트란스포트 스트림(transport stream, TS) 파일을 입력으로 받으며 별도의 하드웨어 장치를 사용하지 않는다. 이 분석기는 PSI(program specific information), TS 섹션, TS 헤더 등 기본 내용뿐만 아니라, TS 패킷들을 오디오, 비디오, PCR(program clock reference), 부가 데이터, 널(null) 패킷 등으로 구분하여 그래픽 사용자 인터페이스 통하여 보여 준다. 또한, 현재 표시되고 있는 TS 패킷과 가장 가까운 I 프레임를 디스플레이 해줌으로써 비트스트림 상의 오류 부분과 실제 영상과 쉽게 매칭시킬 수 있도록 해 준다. 본 논문의 분석기는 MPEG-2 비트스트림 적합성 검사 기능도 제공하며, 데이터 방송을 위한 여러 가지 부가 데이터를 MPEG-2 기본 스트림에 삽입하는 기능도 갖고 있다. 본 논문의 분석기를 이용함으로써 저비용으로 방송 스트림을 분석, 검증할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 실험실 연구를 위한 데이터 방송용 비트스트림을 저비용으로 제작할 수 있다.

This paper compares transport overhead of MPEG-2 TS, MMT and ROUTE in order to compare transport efficiency between the DTV and UHDTV. The MPEG-2 TS standard, widely used, was established for multiplexing and synchronizing encoded audio and video, additional information. In recent years, MMT and ROUTE was established as a next generation multimedia transport standard for the new broadcasting communication environment. In this paper, we compare and analyze transport overhead about three protocol. In order to analysis, we captured the UHD A/V stream in real-time broadcasting service using ROUTE and MMT, and we calculated and analyzed transport overhead using the overhead analysis program which was developed in our laboratory. Furthermore, for comparison under the same conditions, we assumed the MPEG-2 TS stream by extracting ES of UHD A/V stream based on the DTV standard. In this paper, we show the results of protocol transport efficiency in case of basic A/V stream except for additional services. And result show that MMT and ROUTE have similar overhead and MPEG-2 TS is relatively small overhead. However, since MPEG-2 TS result does not consider null packets, it is expected that the relative overhead difference will be reduced.

In the general recording method of mobile broadcasting, all incoming broadcasting streams after recording time will be saved regardless of its content. In this case, as such that viewers do not want to record, commercial advertisement, are saved together. In order to solve these problems, the proposed method checks if the contents such as advertisements are exist in the target stream by analysing the splicing in incoming MPEG-2 TS streams and, if splicing happened, excludes incoming stream after the splicing in the recording process. In the proposed method, first the splice in the recording stream is verified using the related flags of adaptation field in the TS packet and, if judged to cause a splice, the time of splicing is to be estimated by evaluating the value of splice_countdown filed. In this way, the proposed algorithm provides the seamless recording method by estimating the time of splice and excluding the contents after the splicing. To evaluate the proposed seamless recording method, the simulation was carried out by modifying the software of the existing mobile broadcasting terminal.

We propose a method of the efficient injection of the MPEG-4 data into MPEG-2 A/V stream. The proposed method is to transmit MPEG-4 data synchronized with MPEG-2 A/V stream using MPEG-2 Transport Stream Protocol so that the user can decode MPEG-4 data on time at the client side, after extracting IOD (Initia1 Object Descriptor), OD (Object Descriptor), BIFS (Binary Format for Scone) and media data from mp4 file.

In this paper, a DVB-T2(Digital Video Broadcasting-the 2nd Generation Terrestrial) receiver is designed under a USB-type windows environment, and the baseband frames for MPEG2-TS stream(File or Ethernet Modes) are analyzed for verifying the receiver. In addition, the performance of the BICM(Bit Interleaved Coding & Modulation) module in the receiver is analyzed in terms of PLP(Physical Layer Pipe) and L1(Layer 1) signals.

MPEG 3DV 그룹에서는 재생되는 시점 수 보다 적은 시점의 다시점 비디오와 그에 대응하는 깊이영상 및 관련 파라미터를 하나의 비트스트림으로 부호화하는 다시점 및 깊이영상 부호화(MVD: Multiview Video plus Depth) 표준화가 진행 중에 있다. 본 논문은 3DV MVD 비트스트림 포맷을 MPEG-2 TS 로 다중화하기 위한 TS 다중화 확장기법을 제안한다. 또한, MVD 재현 시나리오에 따른 효율적인 TS 전송 구조를 제시하고, TS 다중화 SW 툴의 설계 및 구현을 통하여 그 장단점을 고찰한다. 제안된 기법은 프로그램 및 ES 에 대한 정보를 함께 다중화하여 MVD 의 다양한 재현 시나리오 적응 및 효율적인 복호화 및 가상시점 합성을 지원할 수 있다.
