Abstract:
A method of processes data such as video information. The method includes providing a request from a gateway to an adaptive bit rate server for a unicast adaptive bit rate stream and converting by the gateway the unicast adaptive bit rate stream into one or more multicast adaptive bit rate streams. The gateway is in communication with user equipment having security paired client devices. The method further includes receiving link conditions between the security paired client devices and the user equipment from the user equipment. The method also includes adapting using the gateway the unicast adaptive bit rate stream in response to the link conditions.
