Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for allocating resources in a communication system using an asset delivery characteristics (ADC) message so as to improve efficiency in network resource usage. A method for allocating network resources in a transmission unit of a communication system according to the present invention comprises the steps of: generating an ADC message that includes a parameter value representing a transmission characteristic of a single asset; and transmitting the generated ADC message, wherein the generated ADC message is updated periodically or aperiodically with respect to the asset.
Abstract:
An encoding apparatus and a method of encoding a source block including different types of data payloads are provided. The method includes dividing the source block into a predetermined number M of sub blocks, generating a predetermined number P1 of base parity payloads that correspond to each of the predetermined number M of sub blocks by performing first Forward Error Correction (FEC) encoding on each of the predetermined number M of sub blocks, generating a predetermined number P2 of extended parity payloads that correspond to the source block by performing second FEC encoding on a particular type of data payloads among data payloads that make up the source block, and configuring a source coded block based on a predetermined number N of sub coded blocks including the predetermined number M of sub blocks and the predetermined number P1 of base parity payloads generated.

Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for transmitting a multimedia frame through a heterogeneous network in a broadcast system supporting a multimedia service based on an interne protocol are provided. The method includes generating header information including a frame identifier distinguishing a multimedia frame and information measuring a quality of a connection service between network layers and end-to-end network capabilities, and combining the header information and multimedia data to configure the multimedia frame.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting signaling information in a digital broadcasting system is provided. The method includes generating the signaling information for reception of a broadcast service, and transmitting the signaling information using at least one of a first transmission scheme and a second transmission scheme, which are different from each other in access time to a broadcast channel.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for controlling media delivery in a multimedia transport network. The method includes transmitting composition information (CI) on media assets within a media package to be transmitted, to a user equipment (UE), packetizing the media assets of the media package to packets, transmitting some of the packets to the UE, receiving a feedback message including information on an available bitrate determined by the UE from the UE while the some of the packets are transmitted, selecting media data, which can be transmitted according to the available bitrate, from the media package by using asset delivery characteristics (ADCs) of the media assets within the media package, and packetizing the selected media data to packets and transmitting the packets to the UE.
Abstract:
A method of delivering media data in a hybrid network capable of providing broadcasting and interne communication together is provided. The method includes generating a Media Processing Unit (MPU) to process media data, and delivering the generated MPU, wherein the MPU includes an MPEG Media Transport (MMT) Processing Unit (MMPU) box including information on the MPU, a Media Data box (MDAT) including one or more media data fragments which are generated from the media data, and an MMFU box including information on each media data fragment.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting complex multimedia data is provided. The method includes selecting one of a data headers composed of basic transmission units determined according to an amount of multimedia included in the complex multimedia data, generating a basic transmission unit of the complex multimedia data according to the selected data header, packetizing the complex multimedia data in the basic transmission unit; and transmitting the packetized complex multimedia data to a receiver.
Abstract:
