In this paper, new LBS (location based service) are proposed using conventional DMB (digital multimedia/mobile broadcasting) system. LBS applications are proposed that can be suitable for the subway and ground transportation based on S-DMB (satellite-DMB) and T-DMB (terrestrial-DMB) respectively. In the shaded area such as subway, the broadcasting signal transmitted from the satellite of S-DMB system should be retransmitted by the earth repeater called the gap filler and each gap filler has its own identification value called the gap filler ID which introduces the area in which the gap filler was installed. Therefore, the LBS can be implemented by using the gap filler ID of S-DMB on the subway in which the GPS (global positioning system) can't be received. Unlike the LBS on the subway, the combination of T-DMB and DGPS (differential GPS) will be introduced as a way for ground transportation. Generally, DGPS has been designed to compensate the position value calculated from the GPS signal so that positioning error of about 1 meter can be obtained by using DGPS information. T-DMB system transmitting DGPS signal will be expected to be commercial in Korea and, if using DGPS information transmitted through T-DMB network, LBS with more precise positioning than GPS alone can be implemented in the ground vehicles.

Thanks to the great possibilities of providing different types of telecommunication traffic to a large geographical area, satellite networks are expected to be an essential component of the next-generation internet. As a result, issues concerning the designing and testing of efficient connection-admission-control (CAC) strategies in order to increase the quality of service (QoS) for multimedia traffic sources, are attractive and at the cutting edge of research. This paper investigates the potential strengths of a generic digital-video-broadcasting return-channel-via-satellite (DVB-RCS) system architecture, proposing a new CAC algorithm with the aim of efficiently managing real-time multimedia video sources, both with constant and high variable data rate transmission; moreover, the proposed admission strategy is compared with a well-known iterative CAC mainly designed for the managing of real-time bursty traffic sources in order to demonstrate that the new algorithm is also well suited for those traffic sources. Performance analysis shows that, both algorithms guarantee the agreed QoS to real-time bursty connections that are more sensitive to delay jitter; however, our proposed algorithm can also manage interactive real-time multimedia traffic sources in high load and mixed traffic conditions.

This paper considers a timeslot assignment problem in an interactive satellite multimedia (ISM) system with digital video broadcast-return channel via satellite (DVB-RCS). The timeslot assignment problem is formulated as a binary integer programming to maximize the overall weighted throughput and is shown to be NP-hard. Thus, three real-time heuristic algorithms including ratio-based, packet-size (PS)-based, and transmission gain (TG)-based are derived, and some computational experiments are made. Considering the results, the ratio-based heuristic algorithm is demonstrated to be the most effective and efficient. We propose adapting the ratio-based heuristic algorithm to the timeslot assignment problem to greatly improve the ISM system utilization.

In order to activate the digital broadcasting in Korea, the analog broadcasting will have been closed down until 2012. Recently IPTV(Internet Protocol TV) thorough internet has been regarded as the fourth media following the terrestrial, satellite, and cable for the digital broad casting. And it has been the important medium for the communication and broadcasting system. However IP is not easy to replace the entire broadcasting system with the digital - type broadcasting system. For the digital broadcasting, we should replace all TV sets, install the settop-boxes to receive the various IP media, solve problems about time delaying when changing channels, and support communication and broadcasting consolidation service for such as PVR and Network CCTV. IPMG is the digital converter that is able to solve these problems. In this paper, I'll develop and analyze IPMG converter's performance which sends and receives both the analogue and digital broadcasting signals through various media gives the Network PVR service.

There are several data broadcasting standards that the developers should apply when develops any interactive digital TV contents. In Korea, we adopts ACAP(Advanced Common Application Platform) as terrestrial data broadcasting standard, MHP(Multimedia Home Platform) fur satellite data broadcasting and OCAP(OpenCable Application Platform) for cable data broadcasting. Therefore, content providers must develop different applications which suited for different standards - even if the application is exactly same. This is waste of time and energy. This paper suggests a solution to solve this problem among different broadcasting platforms - MHP, OCAP and ACAP. We compared these specifications, and found out what APIs are typically used far applications. Then we designed XML file structures that can be used to define contents of applications. We also implemented an authoring tool which automatically generates XML files by interaction with users. This paper also ascertains Xlet applications, produced by the authoring tool, works properly on each different data broadcasting standard - MHP, OCAP and ACAP.

Satellite-Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(S-DMB) systems are single frequency networks which consist of a satellite and gap fillers. Though gap fillers are required to extend the coverage to NLOS(Non Line-of-Sight) area, the receiver performance can be degraded with a limited number of fingers due to the increased number of multi-paths. The paper proposes to use frequency domain equalizer(FDE) instead of conventional Rake receiver, where the guard interval is not considered in order to minimize the impact on the current S-DMB systems. Through a campaign of simulations, it is found that the proposed FDE is less sensitive to the number of gap fillers compared to the conventional Rake receiver, and can achieve a greater channel capacity in most channel environments.
