In this paper, we propose a redistribution mechanism of the content that is adapted to devices, which may have different display size and computing capabilities, in home network. The proposed system introduces a mechanism that the encrypted content compressed by H.264/SVC(Scalable Video Coding) scheme which has been standardized recently is provided to the device into a level of content suitable to each device capability. To efficiently superdistribute SVC content, this paper defines three requirements and proposes redistribution mechanism which satisfies these requirements using another licence that it is called 'Ticket'. Our system allows devices to redistribute the content freely in the domain using domain key.

Most watermarking schemes for video contents protection have been studied to increase watermark's robustness and invisibility against such compressions and many kinds of signal processing after embedding copyright information to the original contents. This paper proposes an active watermarking that infect watermark to contents in the video decoding process using embedded infectious watermark and control signals from a video encoder side. To achieve this algorithm, we design a kernel based watermarking in video encoder side that is possible to recover the original contents and watermark in watermark detection procedure perfectly. And then, by reversible de-watermarking in video decoder side, we design the active watermark infection method using detected watermark and control signal. This means that our system can provide secure re-distributions of video contents without any quality degration and watermark bit error against transcoding or re-encoding processing. By experimental results, we confirmed that the embedded watermark was infected by video contents and codec perfectly without any declines of compression ratio and video quality.

This paper presents a video copy detection algorithm that blocks online transfer of illegally copied DTV broadcast programs. Particularly, the proposed algorithm establishes a set of keyframes by detecting abrupt changes of luminance, and then exploits the spatio-temporal features of keyframes. Comparing with the preregistered features stored in the database of DTV broadcast programs, the proposed scheme performs a function of video filtering in order to distinguish whether an uploaded video is illegally copied or not. Note that we analyze only a set of keyframes instead of an entire video frame. Thus, it is highly efficient to identify illegal copied video when we deal with a vast size of broadcast programs. Also, we confirm that the proposed technique is robust to a variety of video edit-effects that are often applied by online video redistribution, such as apsect-ratio change, logo insertion, caption insertion, visual quality degradation, and resolution change (downscaling). In addition, we perform a benchmark test in which the proposed scheme outperforms previous techniques.

The bow of the nuclear fuel assembly is a well-known phenomenon. One of the vital criteria during the history of nuclear fuel development has been fuel assembly's mechanical stability. Once present, the fuel assembly bow can lead to safety issues like excessive water gap and power redistribution or even incomplete rod insertion (IRI). The extensive bow can result in assembly handling and loading problems. This is why the fuel assembly's bow is one of the most often controlled geometrical factors during periodic fuel inspections for VVER when compared e.g. to on-site fuel rod gap measurements or other instrumental measurements performed on-site. Our proposed screening method uses existing video records for fuel inspection. We establish video frames normalization and aggregation for the purposes of bow measurement. The whole process is done by digital image processing algorithms which analyze rotations of video frames, extract angles whose source is the fuel set torsion, and reconstruct torsion schema. This approach provides results comparable to the commonly utilized method. We tested this new approach in real operation on 19 fuel assemblies with different campaign numbers and designs, where the average deviation from other methods was less than 2 % on average. Due to the fact, that the method has not yet been validated during full scale measurements of the fuel inspection, the preliminary results stand for that we recommend this method as a complementary part of standard bow measurement procedures to increase measurement robustness, lower time consumption and preserve or increase accuracy. After completed validation it is expected that the proposed method allows standalone fuel assembly bow measurements.

This paper describes a article how to protect from illegal indiscriminate copy of digital broadcasting content using DRM and CCI. With the start of terrestrial / satellite digital broadcast and the preparation of Digital Cable broadcast, we can view HD digital contents through the various channel. Also we can record, play, redistribute digital contents in PVR. The protection of Digital Contents Right became of the important issue to protect CopyRight. In this paper, we implement a manager that prevents indiscriminate digital contents redistribution of the digital broadcast contents. For protection of Digital contents Right, we use BF(Broadcast Flag) and CCI (Copy Control Information) which we can control viewing or copy digital contents with.

High-quality digital broadcasting contents are susceptible to illegal copy and unauthorized redistribution, which makes broadcasters difficult to protect valuable media assets. So, broadcasters and content providers need the technology for copyright protection of professional digital content. Digital watermarking technology is one of the most actively developed solutions for the copyright protection. This paper suggests the requirements of watermarking technology in DTV(Digital TV) environment for copyright protection and shows the developed real-time watermark embedding/detecting system for HD(High Definition)/SD(Standard Definition) video and experimental results of the system against watermark attack tests. Our watermarking system meets the watermarking requirements of invisibility, robustness and security of DTV environment.

Internet Protocol Television(IPTV) is the use of an IP broadband network to deliver television (cable TV type) services to the end user. Traditional telecommunications service providers as well as alternate service providers and Internet service providers can utilize their IP networks (and broadband consumer access) to deliver broadcast TV, Video on Demand (VOD) and other Internet services to the consumer. As digital technologies progress, illegal copy and redistribution of IPTV content become easier and simpler. Therefore it is required to protect IPTV content or service. In this paper, we analyze the security threats and requirements. We also discuss related issues and solutions for IPTV.
