摘要:
This invention relates to a method, a computer program, a computer program product, a system, a sender, a receiver and a session description protocol for transmitting common data from one sender (902) to a plurality of receivers (901) within a transmission session, comprising communicating (802) at least one session parameter, which is related to said transmission of said common data within said transmission session, to said plurality of receivers (901) via a communication protocol; and transmitting said common data from said sender (902) to said plurality of receivers (901) within said transmission session. The invention particularly relates to broadcast/multicast transmission of common data in a wire-bound and/or wireless network , wherein a File Delivery over Unidirectional Transport FLUTE protocol is used.

Methods, systems, transmitters, receivers, network elements and software applications in a system for acknowledging the reception of sets of data objects, wherein one or more transmitters (2) transmit one or more sets of data objects within respective point-to-multipoint transmission sessions to a plurality of receivers (3), and wherein repair requests and/or delivery verification reports are transmitted by at least one of said receivers to network elements within point-to-point transmission sessions. Different back-off times are assigned for delivery verification reports (6) and repair requests (7), at least two delivery verification reports of one receiver are jointly transmitted within one point-to-point transmission session, and a delivery verification report is transmitted after a completed repair session within the same point-to-point transmission session used by the repair session. Furthermore, a minimum set of parameters to be sent in delivery verification reports is shown
摘要:
A method of signaling and negotiation between a client and a server in a multimedia streaming service regarding the adaptation of the data delivery process. In order to make sure that the client supports the adaptation mechanisms or capabilities to be used in data delivery, one of the parties provides information indicating the adaptation mechanism or capability that it supports to the other party. Upon receiving the information, the other party uses well-defined RTSP response to indicate the support of that mechanism or capability. Either the server or the client can initiate the negotiation. The implementation of the signaling and negotiation covers an AVPF usage, RTP Retransmission Playload Format usage, and an SPTP usage in a particular 3G PSS session.

A virtual TV room service configured with a virtual TV room session responsive to a unique session set-up protocol between participants in the virtual TV room session and a conference server unit hosting the virtual TV room service wherein the conference server unit is defined by a unique Session Initiation Protocol Uniform Resource Identifier formed by concatenating the public portion of the Session Initiation Protocol Uniform Resource Identifier signaled in the electronic server/program guide for the mobile TV channel and the private portion of the Session Initiation Protocol Uniform Resource Identifier unique to the virtual TV room community and arranged such that each of the participants in the virtual TV room session is watching the same mobile TV channel. The capabilities of media control that are available to the participants in the virtual TV room session are specified in an XML file configured for communication during the setting up of the virtual TV room session.

摘要:
A method for signaling and negotiation between a resource-limited client and a server in a multimedia streaming service regarding packet data delivery. In order to avoid dropping packets at the client side due to its maximum packet rate capability, the client signals to the server declaring the maximum packet rate capability. This capability can be signaled to the client via a capability exchange mechanism or using a multimedia streaming protocol. The client inserts a parameter indicative of the maximum packet data rate capability in a request sent to server. It is up to the server to take the necessary action and make the packet delivery rate adjustment.
摘要:
A method used for communicating packets or other information units from a server (11) to a client (15) over a communication path including a packet scheduler (14-1) followed by a bottleneck path (14-2), with the packet scheduler (14-1) having a buffer for holding packets so as not to transmit over the bottleneck path (14-2) at a rate either too high or too low, the method providing that the server (11) communicate to the client (15) the last packet sent to the client (11) and do so via a mechanism by which the sender information is communicated over the bottleneck path (14-2) ahead of substantially all packets already in the buffer. The client (11) then uses the sender information to provide, as needed, information useful in adapting the rate at which the packets arrive at the packet scheduler (14-1).
摘要:
A method to provide to a sender (20) of RTP packets the actual receiver (50) buffer (54) fullness level in a receiver of the RTP packets at a certain time instant represented as remaining playout duration in time. The receiver sends in an RTCP report (26) the sequence number of a selected RTP packet in the receiver buffer and the time difference between the scheduled playout time of this packet and the current time. Based on this timing information, the sender calculates the amount of time it would take for the receiver buffer to empty if the receiver continues to playout at normal speed and no further RTP packets arrive to the receiver buffer. This receiver buffer fullness level information can be used at the sender to adjust the transmission rate and/or nominal playout rate of the RTP packets in order to maintain a targeted receiver buffer fullness level.
