With the introduction of IPTV, Telecom Operators increased their service portfolio for residential users. One of the problem they are facing is the connection between the Home Gateway (HG) with the Set Top Boxes (STBs) located in the home. The connection between HG and the first STB can be done using one of the Home Network technologies (wired or wireless). The connection between the first and the...
This paper proposes a functional architecture on MS (Mobile Station) for MS. The proposed MS has several management modules and binding tables about authentication and session to provide seamless multimedia services. The binding table about authentication and session to provide seamless multimedia services. The binding table is managed in the MSS(Media Streaming Server) as well as HG(Home Gateway)...
In the progressive development of IPTV technology, special attention is being paid at the assurance of an appropriate service quality to the end user. Several research and standardization activities are studying how to provide QoS for IPTV streams along the delivery path from the Head End office/video server to the end user. The customer's premise is the last part of this path, and the one that is...
In this article we present a system for sharing a Conditional Access Module among different visualization devices. Current pay-TV systems require having conditional access modules and smart cards replicated at every visualization device willing to access Pay-TV contents. In this article, we show how a home gateway, capable of securely distribute decryption keys to home visualization device, an inexpensive...
A home gateway (HG) acts as border router by selecting the correct route to different appliances using devices address and supervising resource assignment between the local and access networks. From the quality of service standpoint, minimizing the number of failures for this equipment is a way to gain customerpsilas confidence. To reach this goal, when a service terminates abnormally, the overall...
This paper presents a method of prejoining the expected next TV channels for reducing IPTV channel zapping time with a consideration of the channel surfing behavior and the particular preference of each viewer. In this method, a home gateway of multicast protocol proxy for set-top boxes (STB) prejoins the expected and preferred channels based on aggregated data from STBs. The experimental results...
