Abstract: A Framework for Live Uplink Streaming (PLUS) session between a PLUS source (100) and a PLUS sink (200) is initiated and controlled by the PLUS sink. The PLUS source registers with the PLUS sink and indicates its capabilities. The PLUS sink requests establishment of the session and further controls the session once established. The PLUS sink sends control requests that include control information to the PLUS source, thereby controlling media streaming at the PLUS source remotely.

Abstract: Network assistance is provided for the streaming of data from a user equipment (UE) (14) to an ingestion point (12) in a network. The network assistance may include establishing an uplink network assistance (UNA) session with a network assistance service of the network; while streaming of the data and for each segment of the data or each UNA period of the data, receiving from the network assistance service an indication of a recommended highest bit rate estimate with which the data may be streamed under current network conditions. The UE may adjust content of the data stream in accordance with the indication of the recommended highest bit rate estimation.

Abstract: A terminal device for use with a telecommunications network, the terminal device comprising receiver circuitry, transmitter circuitry and processing circuitry, wherein the processing circuitry is configured: to control the receiver circuitry to receive data from infrastructure equipment of the network via a first communication path through the network; to control the transmitter circuitry to transmit, via a second, different, communication path through the network, a request to infrastructure equipment of the network requesting information identifying an element of the network configured to perform a predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry; to control the receiver circuitry to receive, from infrastructure equipment of the network via the second communication path, a signal identifying the element of the network configured to perform the predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry; and to monitor whether a predetermined condition associated with the reception of the data by the receiver circuitry is met and, when it is determined that the predetermined condition is met, to control the transmitter circuitry to transmit a request to infrastructure equipment of the network requesting the identified element of the network to perform the predetermined process associated with the transmission of the data to the receiver circuitry.

Abstract: A method of operation of an audio/video content receiver having a content decoder capable of decoding an audio/video programme from a packetized data stream by using data packets defining decryption information comprises the steps of: receiving encoded audio/video content as a packetized data stream comprising one or more programmes having data packets identified by respective sets of one or more packet identifiers and comprising identification data mapping programmes to respective sets of the packet identifiers; selecting data packets from the packetized data stream for a required programme according to the set of packet identifiers defined by the identification data for that stream in respect of the required programme; selecting further data packets from the packetized data stream from which a programme is selected which have packet identifiers not included in the identification data for that packetized data stream; generating a composite packetized data stream from the selected packets; generating composite stream identification data indicating packet identifiers of packets included in the composite packetized data stream; and supplying the composite packetized data stream to the content decoder for decoding the programme from the composite packetized data stream according to the packet identifiers in the composite stream identification data.
