According to the architecture of a hierarchical system, the system of the invention consists of a set-top box driving layer 110, a middleware system layer 120 and an application program layer 130. Through the system, a user can automatically customize favorite EPG interfaces and select favorite functional modules so that the EPG system is more personalized, further enhances the user experience and is more convenient when the user uses an interactive network television.

Description

A kind of EPG system that realizes personalized function
Technical field
The present invention relates to IPTV (IPTV) field, be specifically related to a kind of EPG system that realizes personalized function.
Background technology
Electronic program guides (EPG) is to be applied to IPTV (IPTV), can extract programme information and play parameter, and can present to a kind of system of user.Electronic program guides provides easy-to-use, friendly interface, an a kind of mode that can the fast access program to the user, and the user can also watch one or more channels by this function, even all channels are in the recent period with the program of playing.Simultaneously, EPG can provide classification feature, can help the user to browse and selects various types of programs.
Yet all there is EPG system separately in each manufacturer at present, does not form unified standard, so that the EPG system is of a great variety, exerts a certain influence for user's selection.Secondly, along with the increase of IPTV customer volume, user crowd's variation, people wish to obtain different business experience when using IPTV, and the now is single, can not flexible EPG system more and more can not satisfy people's this demand.
Therefore, along with the development of IPTV, we are badly in need of the unified standard that a kind of technology can realize EPG, and can provide different user experiences according to requirements of different users.
Summary of the invention
The present invention has designed a kind of EPG system that can realize personalized function, can and be shown on the OSD interface according to the different functional module of user's demand customization, thereby realize the function of personalized EPG.
According to the framework of layered system, system of the present invention is made up of set-top box Drive Layer 110, middleware system layer 120 and application layer 130.
At first lowermost layer is set-top box Drive Layer 110, and it comprises that real-time oss is unified and respectively drives resource module.Real time operating system is based on the operating system of set-top box, at different set-top box different operating system can be arranged.Driving resource module provides all kinds of drivings of set-top box, and set-top box can be moved in this operating system.The middleware system layer 120 on upper strata and application layer 130 all are based on to be realized on the basis of set-top box Drive Layer.
Next is a middleware system layer 120, and it comprises EPG data management system 121, SI data management system 122, epg database 123, SI engine 124.Wherein, epg database 123 is used for storing the EPG data, mainly comprises program information table; SI engine 124 is mainly used to treatment S I tables of data, comprises EIT P/F and EIT schedule.In native system, EPG data management system 121 will be responsible for the EPG data in chronological sequence, play the storages of classifying such as frequency, personal like, be used for EPG module to the customization personalization.Equally, in native system, the SI data management system also will be responsible for storages of classifying such as the data based frequency of utilization of SI, personal likes, and be used for SI module to the customization personalization.
What be in the superiors at last is application layer 130, major function is a relevant EPG button in the response remote controller, and the inquiry epg database, by EPG data management system and SI data management system programme information and business information are outputed in the OSD interface according to the rule that the user sets.Simultaneously, OSD interface exported or do not outputed to application layer 130 with functional module according to the rule that the user sets also with the support module Display Technique.
Technique scheme because the embodiment of the invention adopts a kind of method of modularization EPG/SI data, has realized realizing the EPG system of personalized function as can be seen.Therefore, by this invention, the user can customize the EPG interface of liking voluntarily, selects the functional module oneself liked, makes the hommization more of EPG system, thereby has strengthened user experience, also makes the user more convenient when using IPTV.
