Abstract:
Embodiments of systems and methods for configuring network services to support an application may include launching an application that will communicate with a network element to perform an application operation, sending a service request to a uniform resource locator (URL) associated with a data handling service that supports the application operation in response to launching the application, wherein the service request is configured to cause activation of the data handling service, and performing the application operation using communications received from the network element that are supported by the data handling service. In some embodiments the service request may be sent to the URL associated with the data handling service automatically in response to launching the application. The activation of the data handling service may occur in the UE, in a communication network, or both. The application may be a portal application. The network element may include a network service provider.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for wireless communication including an apparatus, e.g., a UE and/or one or more networks. In one aspect, the apparatus receives an MBMS video streaming service through broadcast from a first network. In addition, the apparatus determines a failure in association with the reception of the broadcasted MBMS video streaming service. Further, the apparatus receives, based on the determined failure of the broadcasted MBMS video streaming service, the MBMS video streaming service through unicast from a second network. In one configuration, the apparatus transmits information to the second network indicating that the MBMS video streaming service through broadcast from the first network has failed. In such a configuration, the MBMS video streaming service through unicast from the second network is received based on the transmitted information.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for facilitating using a streaming manifest including a profile signal for content encoded based on a encapsulation format. An example method disclosed herein includes identifying structures associated with first media, wherein the first media is associated with a first streaming format. The example method also includes generating a streaming manifest for the first media, wherein the streaming manifest maps the structures associated with the first media to structures associated with a second streaming format, and including an indication with the streaming manifest, wherein the indication identifies the streaming profile used to map the structures.
Abstract:
In embodiments of systems and methods for managing end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) in a communication path spanning a first communication network and a second communication network may include determining by a network element of the first communication network an end-to-end QoS requirement for communicating packets from a packet source to a packet destination via the communication path, determining by the network element a QoS provided by the second communication network within the communication path, and configuring the first communication network to provide sufficient QoS to support the end-to-end QoS requirement based on the QoS provided by the second communication network.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the subject matter described in this disclosure can be implemented in a method for wireless communication by a user equipment (UE). The method generally includes receiving a public warning system (PWS) message, wherein the PWS message includes information associated with at least one program provided via a multimedia service, and retrieving the at least one program via the multimedia service based on the information indicated in the PWS message.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication that a 5G media streaming (5GMS) service is partially available over a 5G multicast/broadcast service (5MBS). The UE may receive information that indicates a first set of resources of the 5GMS service that are accessible or delivered via 5G unicast, and a second set of resources of the 5GMS service that are accessible or delivered via 5MBS, wherein the second set of resources are hosted on a server of the UE. The UE may receive or transmit data associated with the 5GMS service. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Various embodiments may provide streaming service downlink network assistance and/or uplink network assistance mechanisms in a fifth generation (5G) system (5GS) network via an Application Function (AF) computing device in a 5GS. In some embodiments, a computing device and/or the AF computing device may inform the network about needs for capacity for downlink or uplink traffic. Various embodiments may include sending radio access network (RAN) capacity requests to a network computing device of the 5GS network including a 5G RAN. In some embodiments, the network computing device of the 5GS network may be a computing device that is not part of the 5G RAN. In some embodiments, capacity need messages may be sent directly from user equipment (UE) computing devices to computing devices of the 5G RAN. In some embodiments, capacity information of the RAN may be delivered to an AF computing device via an intermediate network function.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices of various embodiments enable content replacement in streaming content, such as content of a live streaming service. Various embodiments may enable a client computing device to receive tailored content that may be suitable for playout in a single media pipeline with main content. Various embodiments may enable a client computing device to provide information to a remote server such that the remote server may provide tailored content that may be suitable for playout with main content. Various embodiments may enable a client computing device to leverage Period elements signaled outside of a content manifest to replace main content with tailored content.
Abstract:
Systems and techniques are described for processing media content, such as samples of sparse media content whose sample durations can be unknown at the time of decoding the samples, include obtaining, at a current time instance, a current fragment comprising at least a current time component. From the current time component, a modified duration is obtained for at least one media sample, the modified duration indicating a time duration by which a presentation of a previous media sample of a previous fragment is to be extended or reduced in relation to the current time instance. The at least one media sample is presented for a time duration based on the modified duration.
Abstract:
Data objects are delivered over a packet-switched network and receivers receive encoded symbols, such as repair symbols, broadcast or multicast, with sufficient information to form requests for additional symbols as needed based on what source symbols or sub-symbols are needed or missing. The requests can be made in a unicast or request fashion. Requesting and broadcasting might be done by different entities. A broadcast server can generate and store repair symbols while a source server can store content in source form. A request can be a unicast HTTP byte-range request, such as a URL, starting position and length. Requests might be aligned with starting positions of files. A receiver can calculate starting and ending byte positions of symbols or sub-symbols in a file and get indications that conventional HTTP servers are usable for file repair. Repair servers can request broadcast of repair data when byte-range requests from multiple receivers overlap.
