Methods and apparatus for maintaining program-guide records comprises the steps of requesting a program-guide index, receiving the program-guide index, and determining whether there exists any new program-guide record based on the received program-guide index. The method further comprises requesting a new program-guide record and receiving the program-guide record. In one aspect, a method for maintaining program-guide records comprises the steps of receiving a program-guide update indication, and determining any new program-guide record based on the received program-guide update indication. The method further comprises requesting an updated program-guide record, receiving the updated program-guide record, and updating the program-guide records.
摘要:
A method for carrying different types of broadcast services over a first mobile broadcast network that carries a first type of service content may include adapting a second type of service content, different from the first type of service content, for transport over the first mobile broadcast network, adapting service bootstrapping information, and mapping service layer addresses to data flow addresses of the first mobile broadcast network. On the receiver side, a broadcast flow address for service bootstrapping information may be discovered, the service bootstrapping information acquired from the discovered broadcast flow address, service layer addresses may be obtained from the bootstrapping information, and service components of the second type of service content acquired from the broadcast network.
摘要:
The described apparatus and methods define a predetermined scheme or syntax for an application-specific Universal Resource Identifier (URI) operable to deep link to a specified point, portion, or view of a target client application executable on a wireless device. Accordingly, the described application-specific URI can be used to deep link from one point to another in the same client application, or to deep link from one client application to another client application.

Media distribution systems may include methods and apparatus to perform memory management on a wireless devices configured to receive non-real time portions of media services. Such methods and apparatus may be based upon an allowable capacity of presentations storable in device memory, as well as on a required memory associated with each presentation in a media service. Such methods and apparatus allow a device to subscribe to a media service based upon sufficient available memory in the device to support the service.

摘要:
Methods and apparatus for over-the-air (OTA) subscriptions. A method is provided for performing over-the-air subscriptions in a data network. The method comprises establishing an overhead notification mechanism, and transmitting a package database to a device using the overhead notification mechanism, wherein the package database identifies one or more service packages. The method also comprises receiving a request from the device to subscribe to one or more selected service packages.

A system and method are provided for enabling a user device to retry a unicast transaction with a server. The user device includes a unicast retry module having both an inner loop retry module and an outer loop retry module. The inner loop retry module handles common transient error while the outer loop retry module allows additional retries alter all inner loop retries have been exhausted for device-initiated transactions.

Methods and apparatus for exchanging information with a dormant target communication device provide for locating a dormant target communication device by a wireless infrastructure, forwarding information to the dormant target communication device by the wireless infrastructure, and allowing the dormant target communication device, upon receiving said information from the wireless structure, to start forwarding information to the wireless structure.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for delivering media to a group of target communication devices provides for multicasting media to the group of target communication devices to save network resources. The disclosed embodiments provide for a significant reduction in network traffic and media processing time by transmitting media in multicast transport mode, where a single copy of the media destined for a group of target recipients is transmitted to a wireless infrastructure over the multicast path. The wireless infrastructure replicates and transmits one copy of the media to each of the target recipients that are assigned to dedicated channels, but multicasts one copy of the media to the target recipients that are assigned to a shared channel.
摘要:
A wireless communication method for modifying a subscription that includes, receiving subscription information, demodulating the subscription information according to a wireless scheme, displaying a set of available program packages for subscription using the demodulated subscription information and allowing a selection of one or more displayed packages, wherein the subscription is modified as a result of the selection.
