Abstract:
An apparatus for receiving augmented broadcast, a method of receiving augmented broadcast content using the same, and a system for providing augmented broadcast content are provided. The method of receiving augmented broadcast content may include receiving a broadcast program and metadata for augmented broadcast implementation for the broadcast program that are transmitted over a broadcasting network, requesting an augmented broadcast content providing server providing augmented broadcast content associated with the broadcast program to provide the augmented broadcast content associated with the broadcast program with reference to the received metadata, and receiving the augmented broadcast content provided by the augmented broadcast content providing server according to the request.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a method and apparatus of broadcast gateway signaling for channel bonding. The apparatus for broadcast gateway signaling includes an input formatting unit configured to generate baseband packets corresponding to channel bonding; and a stream partitioner configured to allocate the baseband packets to two or more RF channels of the channel bonding for generating an outer tunnel data stream, the outer tunnel data stream generated in different ways according to a plurality of operation modes for the channel bonding.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for processing augmented broadcast content, and the method includes receiving, from a broadcast content provider, broadcast content and augmentation region information required to composite augmented content to an augmentation region in the broadcast content; receiving, from a user input device, selection information necessary to select one out of a plurality of augmented content providers; generating an augmented content request message based on the augmentation region information, and transmitting the augmentation content request message to an augmented content provider selected based on the selection information; receiving the augmented content from the augmented content provider; and compositing the augmented content to the augmentation region in the broadcast content by using the augmentation region information.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for processing augmented broadcast content. The apparatus includes: a broadcast content receiving unit configured to receive broadcast content and a first reference signal from a broadcast content provider, the first reference signal including information used to recognize a target object in the broadcast content and composite the broadcast content and augmented content associated with the target object; an object identifying unit configured to identify the target object in the broadcast content by analyzing the broadcast content using an image or sound analysis algorithm with reference to the first reference signal; an augmented content acquiring unit configured to acquire the augmented content associated with the target object; and an augmented content compositing unit configured to composite the acquired augmented content into an augmentation region determined based on the first reference signal.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a method for broadcast gateway signaling and an apparatus for the same. The apparatus for broadcast gateway signaling includes an inner packet generator for generating an inner packet corresponding to the inner layer of a tunneling system; an outer packet generator for generating an outer packet corresponding to the outer layer of the tunneling system; an outer packet header generator for generating the header of the outer packet; and an STL transmission unit for transmitting the outer packet to a transmitter via a Studio-to-Transmitter Link (STL).
Abstract:
Disclosed are a dynamic multi-mode service (MMS) transmission apparatus, a dynamic MMS reception apparatus, and a method for providing a dynamic MMS. The method includes generating, by the dynamic MMS transmission apparatus, signaling information including information about linkage between service channels based on broadcast schedule information about a broadcast service; transmitting, by the dynamic MMS transmission apparatus, the signaling information and the broadcast service to the dynamic MMS reception apparatus through at least one of a broadcast network and a broadband network; receiving, by the dynamic MMS reception apparatus, the signaling information and the broadcast service; interpreting, by the dynamic MMS reception apparatus, the information about the linkage between service channels, included in the signaling information, by decoding the signaling information; and providing, by the dynamic MMS reception apparatus, the broadcast service by performing dynamic channel switching based on the information about the linkage between service channels.
Abstract:
Provided are a terminal, system and method for providing augmented broadcasting service. The method includes receiving augmented broadcasting service information including information indicating that it is possible to provide augmented broadcasting service, information on an augmented content providing server, and information on an augmented scene description data providing server for presenting augmented content on a television (TV) screen, acquiring augmented scene description data and augmented content selected by a user from the augmented content providing server and the augmented scene description data providing server, and outputting the augmented content to be overlaid on broadcast content according to the augmented scene description data.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a method for broadcast gateway signaling using a cloud network and an apparatus for the same. The method includes generating an outer packet corresponding to the outer layer of a tunneling system using an inner packet corresponding to the inner layer of the tunneling system, generating a header of the outer packet, and transmitting the outer packet to a transmitter through a Studio-to-Transmitter Link (STL). The header includes an STL propagation delay time field indicating a reception wait time for an STL stream corresponding to the outer packet.
