Description

A kind of implementation method of network TV business, device and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of the computer network, implementation method, device and system that particularly a kind of Web TV (IPTV) is professional.
Background technology
To add television set with set-top box be terminal, with broadband IP as transmission technology, based on audio-visual service, to be that the Web TV (IPTV) of one is professional caused paying close attention to of operator in recent years for collection instant messaging, recreation, information service.
In the competition of IPTV and other television services,, will become the considerable factor that IPTV obtains advantage to consumer's height expectation and satisfying of Quality of experience (QoE) requirement.There are some different characteristics in IPTV with common radio and television, cable TV, satellite television.In traditional television system, the program of all channels is sent on the terminal simultaneously, when the user selectes channel by remote controller (selection when comprising start, switching channels etc.), special when the user is switched, terminal can switch to the channel of appointment soon and play the TV programme of this channel; In the IPTV system, because the restriction of the incoming end network bandwidth, make and can not be simultaneously the program of all channels to be sent to terminal, have only the content of the channel that the active user watches just can be transmitted to terminal, therefore when the selected program of user switches as carrying out channel, usually after needing to wait for that multicast group adition process and multicast data flow forward direction transport process are finished, just can see the program of the channel of asking.If this section stand-by period is long, can make the user feel the inconvenience of using, reduce user's satisfaction.From the investigation result to IPTV user, the user can accept 1 second with interior channel switching time.
Industry has two kinds for the transformat of IPTV at present, a kind of is direct real-time streaming protocol (RTP) transmission of internet stream media alliance (ISMA) definition, another is to inherit Motion Picture Experts Group (Moving Picture Experts Group, MPEG) MPEG-2 of definition transmission stream (TS) transformat of coming from digital television transfer.Effectively solve RTP buffering ordering and the synchronous problem of audio/video owing to spread delivery of energy with TS, make the time decreased of switching channels, therefore better customer experience is provided, and all is the transformat that adopts based on TS stream in actual at present test and commercial IPTV system.Below be that example describes with the normal MPEG-2 TS form that adopts.
MPEG-2 TS form is to carry out normalized definition in the components of system as directed ISO/IEC of Moving Picture Experts Group-2 13818-1, this specification description how will look, the basic stream of audio frequency and other data is combined into one or more code stream standards of storing or transmitting of being suitable for, Fig. 1 is the rough schematic view figure of MPEG-2 system.
Digital signals such as Voice ﹠ Video flow (ES) substantially through each self-forming of compressed encoding, this substantially stream can not directly store or transmit, also it must be sent to specific subsystem (or claiming packing device), basic stream is divided into paragraph by certain form, and adds specific banner word formation Packet Elementary Stream (PES).The head of PES includes stream attribute information, and can discern this PES by this is video or audio frequency, or data; The out of Memory such as length that also comprise bag in the PES head.Behind packing device formation PES bag, signal is multiplexed into two kinds of dissimilar code streams and sends into channel, a kind of program stream (PS) that cries, and a kind of crying transmitted stream (TS).Program stream is suitable for error free environment, can be used for the program material that stores and reset by digital storage medium, as DVD; Transmit stream and be useful in the environment that is easy to generate error, more suitable for broadcasted application, so all selecting for use, general program transmission transmits stream, below TS stream is highlighted.
PES flows in the multiplexer (MIX), is divided into the bag of regular length one by one, is called transmission package (TS bag), and the data flow of being made up of transmission package is called transmission stream (TS stream).The structure of TS bag as shown in Figure 2, long 188 bytes of TS bag, be divided into packet header and payload, the packet header of TS bag provides the information about the transmission aspect, for example, added synchronously, had zero defect, sign such as scrambling whether, it is video, audio frequency or the auxiliary data that belongs to which program stream that the packet header of each transmission package all has an identifier (PID) to identify this TS bag.
The multiplexing program multiplexing (ProgramMultiplex) that is called that generally will belong to the multichannel TS stream of same program, the digital TV programme of the many covers of the interior transmission of the conventional channel of being everlasting in practice are called the multiplexing of multi-channel program or transmit multiplexing (Transport Multiplex).Wherein program multiplexing has common time reference; Transmitting multiplexingly then can have independently time reference each other.In the multiplexer of multi-channel program, at first every programs is multiplexed into TS stream by a plurality of program multiplexing devices, and then each TS stream further being multiplexed into one tunnel total Polymera TS stream by the system transmissions multiplexer, channel encoder is again delivered on the corresponding channel at last.
Thereby in order to allow the decoder of receiving terminal can know which essential information stream belongs to certain program specific PES is carried out demultiplexing, must periodically add the relation between the pid value that additional information illustrates that available program and the essential information of forming them flow in transmitting stream, this information is called " program characteristics information ".These customizing messages also are the form periodically transmission in transmitting stream with the TS bag, and two the most frequently used program characteristics information are Program Association Table (PAT, Program Association Table) and Program Map Table (PMT, Program Map Table).
Fig. 3 has provided the schematic diagram of a PAT, lists the PID that has described all Program Map Tables among the PAT, and Program Association Table uses a predefined pid value 0X000 to transmit.Fig. 4 has provided the schematic diagram of a PMT, PMT define one group with a relevant pid value of program that may comprise audio frequency, video and various data.Each program has a Program Map Table PMT corresponding with it, and one group of pid value is arranged among the PMT, and each pid value is corresponding to a PES in this program.
In Digital Television, all program characteristics information all must repeat regularly, thereby make new start or carry out terminal that channel switches and can transmit stream according to the program characteristics information interpretation and carry out correct decoding.MPEG-2 does not have the repetition rate of prescribed program characteristics information, determine by program provider oneself, high repetition rate can make the program capture time after channel switching or the start faster, but high repetition rate also means the ratio reduction that is used to transmit programme content in the transmission current capacity.
Fig. 5 has provided the procedure chart that the general channel that uses switches in the existing IPTV system, suppose that the active user is just at viewing channel 1, set-top box in the home network is just in the multicast data flow of receiving channels 1, the user wants and will switch to channel 2 from channel 1, then needs to realize that by following flow process this channel switches:
Step 501: when the user triggers when channel 1 switches to channel 2 by remote controller, set-top box generates supports Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to leave the group report, the multicast group at channel 1 place is left in requirement, and described IGMP is left the group report issue home gateway (HG, Home Gateway).Home gateway is Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) normally.
Step 502: home gateway will send " particular group qualification inquiry " message, to determine not having other main frames to belong to that multicast group that firm application is left in this network after receiving that " IGMP leaves group report " message in home network.
Step 503: home gateway is after waiting for a period of time, if during this period of time do not receive group membership's " membership qualification report " message, just think on this network segment that this group membership has not existed, this moment home gateway can stop forward direction transmitting multicast data flow and upstream router send IGMP and leave the group report.The described stand-by period is by the maximum response time in the group membership query messages (RTime) decision, if do not need to inquire about other group member then can not wait for.
Step 504: after set-top box transmission " IGMP left group report ", it can then send a " IGMP adding group that requires to add channel 2 and report that " is to home gateway.
Step 505: home gateway is the member who belongs to this multicast group as long as this network segment does not have other local terminal after receiving this IGMP adding group report, and it just will send IGMP adding group and report to the upstream gateway router.After upstream gateway router (GWR, Gateway Router) was received and joined request, other multicast routers that can be in access network be sent " adding group report ", set up multicast path by.If the existing member who belongs to this multicast group of this network segment, then home gateway is transmitted the multicast data flow of this multicast group a this user's of giving set-top box.
Step 506: the multicast data flow of channel 2 correspondences according to the multicast path of being set up by, the forwarding by each multicast router and home gateway arrives set-top box.
According to above-mentioned switching mode, a time delay that importance is the search programs characteristic information in the channel time delay for switching.The program characteristics information of each channel and the audio/video/data of this program stream are multiplexed into transmission in the TS stream together, thereby the program characteristics information in the search TS of the terminal equipment elder generation stream obtains the audio/video/data of this program flows pairing PID, from TS stream, filter out audio/video/data stream respectively according to PID again, again the audio/video/data flow point is not given the output of decoding of audio decoder, Video Decoder and data decoder at last.
According to existing IPTV implementation, need wait until catch and the program characteristics information (PAT, PMT) of having decoded after just can carry out the decoding of audio frequency, video and data, can increase channel switching time and cause the channel inconsistency of switching time, influence user's subjective feeling.
Summary of the invention

Embodiment
For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention is further elaborated below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Though the present defined IPTV framework of each normal structure is some difference a little, but all have electronic program guides (EPG) server entity to be responsible for program navigating in framework, user terminal is realized quick retrieval and visit to program by visit EPG server.User terminal is shown to the user after inserting the IPTV system after the EPG server obtains programme information.Embodiment of the invention scheme is expanded the EPG server exactly, program characteristics information also is arranged in the EPG server, after user terminal inserts the IPTV system, obtain program characteristics information from the EPG server, programme content in the multicast data flow of being received according to the program characteristics information decoding that is obtained, and need not search program characteristics information from multicast data flow.
First embodiment of the invention: based on the realization of the IPTV of MPEG-2 TS stream.
In the present embodiment, on the EPG server except the list information of preserving current programme televised live, also need to preserve for each program and be used for the program characteristics information that terminal is decoded to program, the coding class and the rank information such as (profile-level-id) that are included in pairing separately pid information in the TS stream and allow terminal be correctly decoded needed coded format, to be adopted, the program characteristics information of being preserved can be organized according to table 1:
Figure A200710194833D00141
Table 1
When in the IPTV system, importing program, need the process of carrying out the programme information registration to the EPG server, promptly will be in the program characteristics information table in the EPG server, increase multicast ip address corresponding to this new-programme, TS flow port number and program characteristics information.Pairing multicast ip address of program and TS flow port number generally can manual the whole network unified distributions, program characteristics information, comprise sound/look/pid information and parameter information frequently, can obtain the back from program provider inserts by hand, report after also can utilizing the media function (MF, Media Function) of finishing media conversion and distribution function in the IPTV system to detect.
Fig. 6 has provided embodiment one imports programme televised live in the IPTV system programme information register flow path, comprises the steps:
Step 601: application server (AS) increases by one road programme televised live under the control of consistency operation, at first sends Indication message to MF, and indication MF receives the pairing TS stream of new-programme, and requires MF to feed back program characteristics information in this TS stream; Simultaneously can be with unified distribution transmit the employed multicast ip address of this program and port numbers is handed down to MF in the IPTV network internal.
Step 602:MF receives the pairing TS stream of new-programme from program source, according to multicast ip address and port, this TS circulation is dealt into corresponding multicast group, and to search for PID in the described TS stream be 0 pat table, thereby obtain the PID of the pmt table of the pairing program of current TS stream; PID according to pmt table searches for pmt table in TS stream again, thereby obtains the program characteristic informations such as the pairing PID of sound, video and caption stream, code/decode format and parameter of this program;
Step 603:MF reports AS with the pairing PID of sound, video and caption stream and the program characteristic informations such as code/decode format and parameter of this program in the pmt table;
Step 604:AS sends Indication message to the EPG server, indication need increase by one road programme televised live in the rendition list, in Indication message except can carrying relevant program description such as channel, also comprise the program characteristics information of this program that the employed multicast ip address of this program of transmission, port numbers and MF report, comprise the pairing PID of sound, video and caption stream and code/decode format and parameter;
After step 605:EPG server is received the Indication message of AS, increase a program item in the information list of being preserved, and in table, add information such as program item, multicast ip address, TS flow port, PID, code/decode format and parameter according to Indication message, add successfully the back and respond the OK response message to AS.
By carrying out above-mentioned flow process, for any programme televised live, preserved the relevant information of this programme televised live on the EPG server, the user can watch this program afterwards.
The handling process that the user of embodiment one watches the IPTV program comprises the steps: as shown in Figure 7
Step 701: the IPTV system is inserted in user terminal start back, to the AS application authentication;
Step 702:AS carries out authentication according to the user's information in userspersonal information's service function (UPSF) entity;
Step 703: after authentication was passed through, AS returned the address information of EPG server to user terminal;
Step 704: user terminal sends the request of application EPG information according to described address information to the EPG server;
Step 705:EPG server is confirmed the program that the user can visit according to the user profile among the UPSF;
Step 706: all live television programmings that have authority to watch for the user, the EPG server is except sending to program list information the user terminal, also descriptor such as channel, multicast ip address and the program characteristics information with these programs of being preserved sends to user terminal, here adopt Session Description Protocol (SDP, Session Description Protocol) describing mode, illustrate the terminal information that sends to, as follows:
v=0
o=-2890844256?2890842807?IN?IP4?172.16.2.93
s=SDP?Session

A=pidlist:726 57 60 102 123 // extend property " a=pidlist " is described the PID tabulation in the TS stream
A=pidmap:726 H264 // extend property " a=pidmap " is described the attribute of specifying pid stream
a=fmtp:726?profile-level-id=42A01E;packetization-mode=0;
Sprop-parameter-sets=Z0IACpZTBYmI, alMjiA==// decoding parametric
A=pidmap:57 mpeg4-generic/44100/2/zh // voice are designated as Chinese
A=pidmap:60 mpeg4-generic/44100/2/en // voice are designated as English
A=pidmap:102 subtitle/zh // captions are designated as Chinese
A=pidmap:103 subtitle/en // captions are designated as English
In the practical application, also can dispose the mode of concrete expansion SDP voluntarily, as long as can bring user terminal with the descriptor of program.
After user terminal is received EPG information, program list information is shown to the user to be selected, for the descriptor of each program, set up the corresponding relation of channel, multicast IP, TS flow port, PID, code/decode format and the parameter etc. of each program, form can be with reference to table 1.
Step 707: behind selected certain channel of user, terminal is according to the corresponding relation of being set up in the step 705, obtain the multicast ip address of this channel, add corresponding multicast group according to described multicast ip address, receive that MF transmits to utilizing the corresponding relation of being set up after the multi-cast message data of program, determine corresponding program characteristics information, multi-cast message data is decoded, and decoded data are shown to the user watch according to described program characteristics information.
Be example with Fig. 3 and the pairing PAT of Fig. 4 and pmt table below, the decode procedure of user terminal is described.
MF will be packaged into the RTP message and multicast to user terminal from the TS stream that program source is received, the TS that establishes in the TS stream wraps as shown in Figure 8.
The time point that user terminal receives multicast message is at random, here suppose to begin to receive message at as shown in Figure 8 A access point, because the program characteristics information that user terminal has been preserved this program, receive that first PID knows that this is that languages are the voice flow of English when being 60 TS bag, if setting the languages of the voice of current output, the user is English, then give audio decoder decode with this TS, be Chinese if the user sets the languages of the voice of current output, then directly discard this TS bag; Next receive that PID knows that this is the caption stream of Chinese when being 102 TS bag, if setting the captions languages of current output, the family is Chinese, then give the caption stream decoder decode with this TS, if setting the languages of the voice of current output, the family is English, then directly discard, next receive that PID is that corresponding English caption stream of 123 TS bag and PID are that 102 TS bag processing mode is similar; Next the PID that receives again knows that this is a video flowing when being 726 bag, then directly this TS bag is sent to video decoder decodes.
From top description process as can be seen, because terminal has been preserved the program characteristic informations such as PID, code/decode format and parameter of program, obtain these program characteristics information so need not search for pat table and pmt table again, therefore can just begin decoding from any access point, and could begin decoding after not needing to wait until pat table and pmt table (as the B program characteristic information among Fig. 8) appearance, therefore can save this section time-delay of ordering from the A point to B.It can also be seen that by top description, at this moment in fact PAT from the multicast message that program source sends over and PMT information do not have any effect, directly abandoned by terminal, therefore the MF entity is before user terminal issues TS stream, program characteristics information wherein can be removed, and then issue the TS stream that does not carry program characteristics information.
If variation has taken place in the program characteristics information of certain program, need refresh the program characteristics information of preserving on EPG server and the user terminal immediately, concrete program characteristics information refresh flow comprises the steps: as shown in Figure 9
Step 901:MF detects PAT and the PMT information in the TS stream of being received, if find program characteristics information and the local program characteristics information inconsistency of preserving in the TS stream, has influence on terminal and is correctly decoded, and then new program characteristics information is reported AS;
Step 902:AS is transmitted to the EPG server with the new program characteristics information that MF reports, and indication EPG server refreshes the list item that it preserves program characteristics information, guarantees that the user of new start obtains correct program characteristics information;
Step 903:EPG server is broadcasted new program characteristics information on network, after the user terminal of current activation is received broadcast, refresh the list item that it preserves program characteristics information, and guaranteeing to switch to can normal decoder behind this program.Consider the user right problem, can only broadcast the information that changes, and need not broadcast the multicast ip address and the port numbers of this program;
The information of finishing step 904:EPG server refreshes and broadcasts the back and return acknowledge message to AS;
Step 905:AS returns acknowledge message to MF.
By flow process shown in Figure 9, program characteristics information on the EPG server can in time be refreshed, program characteristics information on the user terminal is also in time refreshed, thus the programme content that user terminal can be received according to the program characteristics information decoding of being preserved.
Embodiment two: based on the realization of the IPTV of ISMA form.
If do not adopt MPEG-2 TS form transmission, for example use the transmission of ISMA form, at this moment video, audio frequency and data flow are not multiplexingly to transmit together, transmit but be dispersed in the different rtp streamings.When using the ISMA form to transmit, at this moment the EPG server does not need to preserve port numbers and the pid information that TS stream uses, but employed RTP port numbers of audio frequency, video and the data flow that need preserve this channel respectively and port (PT) type, port numbers and port type value are distributed unitedly by operator, and table 2 has provided an example of the program characteristics information of being preserved:
