As the number of broadcasting channels and programs increases rapidly, the importance of personalized service has been emphasized. In this paper, we propose a practical framework of metadata broadcasting to provide personalized service according to user preferences and various terminal/network conditions. First, we present an overall system architecture of a metadata broadcasting system and then propose several core technologies (particularly in the parts of metadata authoring, metadata encoding, and metadata-based personalized content consumption). For interoperability, the proposed solution is designed to be compliant with the relevant standards of the TV-Anytime Forum, MPEG-7 Systems, and MPEG-2 Systems. Considering a home network environment, we also propose a metadata-based content adaptation scheme. Each component technology has been implemented individually, integrated into an end-to-end prototype broadcasting system, and successfully tested with a set of personalized service scenarios that are also developed in this study.

This article investigates the distributed data storage problem in the space information network (SIN) using distributed fountain codes. Since space nodes in the SIN are resource-limited, in order to reduce energy consumption while improving the storage reliability, an efficient distributed storage based on fountain codes and probabilistic broadcasting (DSFPB) strategy is proposed. In the proposed strategy, source packets are disseminated among the entire network according to probabilistic broadcasting (PBcast), and the final degree distribution is close to the desired robust soliton distribution (RSD), this is benefited from the appropriate packets encoding procedure of the proposed strategy. As presented by the analysis and simulations, the total cost of data dissemination is greatly reduced compared with existing representative strategies, while improving the decoding performance.

PON기반 광가입자망에서 방송신호 전송을 위한 방법으로써 단일 LD를 이용한 디지털/SCM신호 동시 변조방식의 성능을 파장이 다른 두개의 LD에 디지털 및 SCM신호를 각각 변조한 방식과 비교하였다. 실험을 통해, 변조를 위해 인가되는 전류의 최소값이 LD의 threshold 전류의 약 1.5배 이상인 경우 디지털 및 SCM신호의 상호간섭이 최소화됨을 확인하였다. 또한 LD의 anode 단자와 cathode 단자에 각각 디지털 및 SCM신호를 인가함으로서 효율적으로 회로설계가 가능한 광송신기 구조를 제안하고 실험적으로 검증하였다.

The era of convergence is being applied to all areas of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The convergence of broadcasting service and communication service almost occurs on smart devices including smartphone. The smart hybrid Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) is a typical example of the convergence of broadcasting and wireless communication service. The hybrid mobile broadcasting service can support seamless video, 3D, high quality, and additional data services based on network connection between the broadcasting and wireless network. The gateway and terminal (including apps on the smartphone) take the role of the main components on the hybrid service. This paper presents the service concept, main components structure, the implementation of gateway and terminals, and field test to the urban areas for the mobile hybrid system.

In this paper, we propose a method for constructing terrestrial/cable PSIP converting system, so-called a PSIP converter, which is converting terrestrial PSIP into cable PSIP for a data broadcasting service in the interoperable network of terrestrial and cable, and define an interface between the PSIP converter and the OOB SI generator by using PMCP messages compliant to ATSC T3/S1. The exiting PSIP converter just converts terrestrial PSIP into cable PSIP compliant to ATSC and OCAP standard and transmits by a MPEG-2 TS format. That is to say, it is not for the digital data broadcasting but for the digital broadcasting. Say in other word, the proposed PSIP converter is designed to convert and transmit PSIP including DET information which is necessary data event information for data broadcasting service. In addition, the PSIP converter can support various types of PSIP information to the OOB SI generator by using PMCP messages defined by a hierarchical structure as per each channel, audio/video event, data event and so on.

본 논문은 모바일 방송망에서 고화질의 3D 방송 서비스를 제공하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안방법에서는 제한된 방송망의 대역폭을 극복하는 방법으로 오디오와 비디오를 방송망과 이동통신망으로 구성된 이종망을 통해 전달한다. 특히 서로 다른 망을 통해 각각 전송되는 스테레오스코픽 좌/우 영상을 동기화하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서의 동기화 방법은 RTP(Real Time Protocol)의 초기 타임스탬프(Timestamp)로부터의 옵셋을 이용하여 영상의 프레임(Frame) 순서를 구별하고 동일한 시점에 재생되어야 하는 좌/우 영상의 쌍을 찾는다. 마지막으로 3D 방송 서비스를 구별하고 타임스탬프를 얻기 위한 시그널링(Signaling)방법을 제시한다.

This paper describes a simple delay diversity technique for terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB) and digital audio broadcasting in a single-frequency network (SFN). For the diversity technique, a delay diversity scheme is adopted. In the delay diversity scheme, a non-delayed signal is transmitted in the first antenna, and delayed versions of the signal are transmitted in each additional antenna. For an SFN environment with multiple transmitters, delay diversity can be executed by controlling the emission times of the transmitters. This SFN delay diversity scheme does not require any hardware changes in either the transmitter or receiver, and perfect backward compatibility can be acquired. To evaluate the performance improvement, laboratory tests are executed with various types of commercial T-DMB receivers as well as a measurement receiver. The improvement in the bit error rate performance is evaluated using a measurement receiver, and an improvement of the threshold of visibility value is evaluated for commercial receivers. Test results show that the T-DMB system can obtain diversity gain using the described technique.

다중 홉 무선 ad hoc 네트워크에서 방송은 경로 탐색과 주소 설정 등 많은 응용 작업들을 지원해 주는 기본적인 동작이다. 플로딩을 이용한 방송은 네트워크상에서 방송 폭풍 문제라고 언급되는 중복성, 경쟁, 충돌문제 등을 야기한다. 무선 ad hoc 네트워크를 위한 여러 가지 방송 기법들은 단순 플로딩 기법 보다 우수한 성능을 얻기 위해 제안되었다. 재방송 실행 유무를 결정하는 방법은 다양한 토폴로지 상에서 패킷의 도착율과 효율성 사이에 딜레마를 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 패킷의 도착율 저하 없이, 필요 없는 재방송 패킷들을 줄여서 효율성을 높이기 위한 향상된 방송 알고리즘을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안한 기법이 기존의 기법들 보다 우수한 도착율과 효율성을 제공함을 보인다.

Convergence between telecom and broadcasting is today a worldwide phenomenon. Diverse services like VoD, mobile broadcasting, IPTV and interactive services have already made their market debut or are currently being commercialized. Regulatory systems are also being revised to appropriately regulate this new breed of services. We propose the new model of educational broadcasting system using the internet network, it is not different conventional coaxial cable methods. Especially, we design the multicast method of the network using the limited channel and resource, propose the method of intercommunication in the school between the broadcasting system and database system.

Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) produced ATSC 2.0 standard, which has been used for a HD/SD digital broadcasting service with MPEG-2 Transport Stream (TS) as a delivery protocol. Recently, users might want to consume multimedia services without being constrained by transport network. However, MPEG-2 TS is not suitable protocol for IP network. Thus, ATSC has enacted ATSC 3.0 standard, which is designed for a hybrid service through a conversion of both broadcasting and broadband channels. The ATSC 3.0 specifies delivery protocols as MPEG Media Transport (MMT) for a broadcasting environment and Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) for a broadband. However, it seems difficult to combine broadcast and broadband for hybrid broadcasting, and it is difficult to synchronize media data between MMT and DASH. This paper suggests various new service scenarios to be brought up by a hybrid broadcasting, ATSC 3.0, and also proposes a stable mechanism for switching contents between different delivery protocols such as MMT and DASH.
