SATELLITE SWITCHING FOR ADDRESSABLE ASSET DELIVERY
Abstract:
Specific transmission mechanisms and processes are provided to support real-time addressable asset delivery in satellite broadcast networks including satellite television networks. A satellite network (100) includes a satellite (102) that transmits a satellite transmission (106) to a terrestrial receiver (104), such as a satellite dish. The satellite dish (104) is associated with a UED (108) such as a television with a set top box. The satellite transmission (106) includes a number of MUXs (107). One or more of the MUXs (107) includes a programming channel and associated asset channels. Addressable asset options can be delivered at UEDs by hopping from a programming channel to an asset channel at an asset delivery opportunity.
