S-DASH: A New Transmission Mechanism for IP-based Digital Broadcasting Systems

ATSC 3.0 is a next-generation terrestrial broadcast standard that transmits UHD media content by DASH segment file, not media frame unit. The size of DASH segment files varies even though they have the same quality and playback time. In other words, the sizes of DASH segment files basically burst. Moreover, a DASH segment file size […]

Delays and Resource Analysis for Next-Generation Digital Broadcasting Systems

This paper analyzes delays and resource efficiency when DASH segment files are transmitted through IP-based next-generation broadcasting systems such as ATSC 3.0. DASH segment files are designed to support media content of various qualities in the DASH system. The size of a DASH segment file can vary even though they may have the same quality […]

An Efficient Hierarchical Error Recovery Method for Hybrid Broadcast / Communication Networks

This paper proposes a hierarchical error recovery method for the hybrid mobile broadcast/communication networks. The mobile broadcast network (e.g., DVB-T/H, T-DMB) transmits the base forward error correction (FEC) and the multimedia content at the same time for the error recovery. However, the occurrence of errors is different due to the receiving environment of the individual […]

A Transmission Method to Improve the Quality of Multimedia in Hybrid Broadcast / Mobile Networks

This paper proposes the method through the mobilecommunicationnetwork when broadcast contents occur receiving errors in the Hybrid Broadcast/Mobile Network. Generally, the characteristic of the mobilecommunicationnetwork is pay network and peer-to-peer mobile. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the amount of retransmission data in order to reduce the load of users and networks for recovery. This […]

Transmission Model for Next-generation Digital Broadcasting Systems

Next-generation digital broadcasting system transmits the DASH segment files. Delays and inefficient use of resources are the major challenges in the transmission of DASH segment files in broadcasting systems. Because the size of DASH segment files varies even though the files have the same quality, and broadcasting systems uses the fixed resource. Delay is an […]

An efficient transmission scheme of MPEG2-TS over RTP for a Hybrid DMB System

Hybrid digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) is a next‐generation mobile TV system that combines broadcasting and wireless communication networks and can provide various high‐quality multimedia services. However, if a system adheres to the current standard of transmitting the DMB content in the form of MPEG2‐TS through wireless networks, it results in a burden on the network […]

An Efficient and Flexible Hybrid Conditional Access System for Advanced T-DMB

This letter presents a hybrid conditional access system (CAS) for advanced terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (AT‐DMB). The proposed architecture is characterized by its use of a unified CAS channel and various communication networks for CAS message transmissions. We implement a prototype CAS based on the hybrid architecture, which improves the CAS message transmission efficiency greatly […]
