Definitions

  • This invention relates to the transmission of data files or modules in the form of a carousel in a digital broadcasting system. It also relates to receiving the files at a receiver in the system.
  • Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) systems are well-established and are used to transmit audio and video content to receivers. More recently, such systems have also been used to transmit digital code for applications which can be executed by a processor in the receiver. The applications can include electronic programme guides (EPG), games, quizzes, instructional guides and e-commerce applications such as home banking.
  • EPG electronic programme guides
  • Most broadcast receivers have a single tuner (also known as a front-end) which is capable of tuning to a particular broadcast channel or transport stream to receive content.
  • the Digital Video Broadcasting Multimedia Home Platform (DVB-MHP) is an open, published, standard for interactive digital television.
  • DVB-MHP 1.0.3 specifies a mechanism to broadcast an application with a digital TV signal.
  • DVB systems transmit content using transport streams.
  • Files for applications are stored in a repetitively broadcast data stream known as a Digital Storage Media Command and Control (DSM-CC) Object Carousel.
  • DSM-CC Digital Storage Media Command and Control
  • Each transport stream can carry multiple individual services, such as television or radio services, as well as the carousel.
  • a receiver in the system tunes to a particular transport stream and can then access individual services within the transport stream by appropriate selection.
  • Most currently available MHP receivers have a single tuner (front-end). Many broadcasters want to provide the same key applications alongside all of their television services.
  • An application associated with a television (or radio) service must be broadcast in the same transport stream as that service, otherwise terminals with a single tuner would not be able to display it. Broadcasters with multiple transport streams broadcast data for their key applications in carousels carried by each of their transport streams. Data that forms part of an application is arranged into files. These files are arranged into DSM-CC modules. One module can contain several files. A DSM-CC object carousel comprises many DSM-CC modules, along with control information. When an MHP receiver selects a channel that has an application it will first parse some signalling. It then loads the main class (data file) of the application. The remaining classes (data files) of the application are loaded as they are required.
  • the object carousel that carries the application files repeats on a regular basis, known as a cycle.
  • the duration of the cycle depends on the number of files stored in the carousel and the total bandwidth that has been allocated to carry the carousel on the transport stream.
  • Some known high-end receivers are arranged to cache the entire contents of the carousel in a memory on the receiver. Thus, after a single carousel cycle, the receiver has stored every file in local memory. This avoids the need for the receiver to wait for the required file to be broadcast, but is achieved at the expense of requiring a large memory at the receiver.
  • a digital television receiver of a non-MHP kind with two tuners which can simultaneously tune to separate channels.
  • the two tuners are provided so that a user can view a broadcast, live, on one channel whilst recording another broadcast on another broadcast channel. As a result, the second tuner is idle for most of the time.
  • a first aspect of the present invention provides a method of formatting data files for transmission in a digital broadcasting system, the method comprising: creating a first data carousel for transmission on a first transport stream, the first data carousel comprising a plurality of data files which repeat after a cycle time; creating a second data carousel for transmission on a second transport stream, the second data carousel comprising a plurality of data files which repeat after a cycle time; wherein at least some of the files in the first and second data carousels are the same, those common files being offset from one another such that their transmission times will be different.
  • a further aspect of the invention provides apparatus for formatting data files for transmission in a digital broadcasting system in the above manner and a method of transmitting transport streams which carry data carousels which have been formatted in this manner.

  • the first transport stream further comprises an identifier which identifies that the second transport stream carries the same files as the first transport stream.
  • the second transport stream can identify the first transport stream. This allows a receiver to locate the other transport streams which carry the same files.
  • a digital broadcasting receiver is modified to take advantage of the benefits of the invention.
  • a further aspect of the invention provides a method of receiving data files at a receiver in a digital broadcasting system, the receiver having first and second receiving stages, the data files being stored in the form of a data carousel which repeats after a predetermined cycle time, the method comprising: tuning the first receiving stage to receive a first data carousel on a first transport stream; tuning the second receiving stage to receive a second data carousel on a second transport stream, the second data carousel having at least some files in common with the first data carousel which are transmitted at times which are offset from the first carousel.

  • Control software for operating the terminal also resides on storage 69. It should be noted that Figure 2 shows a terminal which is intended to receive signals via a broadcast delivery channel.
  • the tuner/demodulators 61 A, 61 B are replaced by a network interface appropriate to the delivery channel.
  • One important benchmark for measuring the performance of receivers is how long a receiver takes to start an application. Due to the carousel behaviour described above, it will usually take at least a single carousel cycle. The use of two tuners 75A, 75B at a receiver can reduce this time, by up to one half.
  • transmission formatting function 35 at the broadcaster 30 transmits the same carousel contents on two different transport streams. The following tables show the transmission of a data carousel on two transport streams TS1 , TS2.
  • carousel contents are shown as a series of files numbered 0-9. It will be appreciated that an actual carousel will hold a much larger series of files, which may differ in their relative sizes rather than being of uniform size. A sequence of time periods 0-4 are considered.
  • An identical data carousel i.e. same set of files 0-9 in the same order
  • each data carousel starting at the same time.
  • the total time to receive the entire carousel contents is two time units. Even if receiver 60 were to receive both transport streams, there would be no improvement in download speed.
  • Example 2 (optimum layout).
  • An identical data carousel (i.e. same set of files 0-9 in the same order) is simultaneously transmitted on both transport streams.
  • the start times of the data carousels are offset by a period equal to one half of the total cycle time.
  • two different files are being broadcast on the transport streams.
  • a first tuner tuned to TS1 will receive files 0,1 ,2,3,4 and a second tuner tuned to TS2 will receive files 5,6,7,8,9.
  • the total time to receive the entire carousel contents (files 0-9) with this arrangement is only one time unit.
  • Example 3 TS1 carries the files in ascending order (0..9) while TS2 carries the files in descending order (9..0). In any given time period (0-4), transport streams TS1 and TS2 carry the full set of files between them.
  • this example is less efficient if a pair of tuners can select any arbitrary period.
  • TS1 carries files 3,4,5,6,7 while TS2 carries files 6,5,4,3,2.
  • the most effective scheme is that shown in Example 2 where the files are sent in the same order (ascending or descending) and every commonly numbered pair of files is offset by one half of the carousel cycle time.
  • Receivers which only have a single tuner, and receivers which have two tuners but which are not able to use the two tuners in this new manner, are not affected by transmitting the carousel data in this new way.
  • the second tuner can still be used to receive carousel contents from a second transport stream.
  • the second tuner need only be used for the initial caching and can be used for other purposes whilst the application is running.
  • the use of two tuners halves the time to initially cache the contents. If the receiver's cache is smaller than the total size of the object carousel, then the use of a second tuner will, on average, halve the waiting time for a file that is not already stored in the cache.
  • the second tuner will be kept in use the entire time the carousel is mounted (although this would typically be low-priority, allowing an application to take control of the tuner and use it for something else).
  • DVBcarouselNSAPaddress identifies a DVB service (which may be in a different transport stream) and a carousel within that service.
  • double_speed_carousel_descriptor we add the restriction that it must refer to a different transport stream. It should be possible to specify more than one instance of this descriptor, in case the broadcaster has more than two transport streams. This is only beneficial if the second tuner is in use but happens to be tuned to a suitable transport stream.
  • the above definition is only one example and other descriptor layouts are possible.
  • the DVBcarouselNSAPaddress will need to be replaced with a local equivalent.
  • a preferred location for this new descriptor is the PMT entry that identifies the carousel, adjacent to the existing carousel_id_descriptor (see MHP 1.0.3 section B.2.10.1). This allows the second carousel to be identified easily at the time the receiver mounts the first carousel.
  • the new descriptor could also be placed in the DSI or ServiceGateway objects within the carousel. However, these locations are not preferred because they are parsed later than the PMT. Since this improvement is intended to increase download speed, it is important to find the information about alternative carousel locations as quickly as possible. The need for a new descriptor can be avoided by providing information about the second carousel in the same place as the information about the first carousel.
  • FIG. 3 shows a flow diagram of the main steps performed by processor 68 at receiver 60 to use two tuners. Firstly, at step 300, a command is received to attach to the carousel of the current transport stream.
  • This command may be generated by a request from the user (such as a user selecting an application in a menu) or a request signalled by the television service the user is watching. It will be assumed that tuner 75A is currently receiving a first transport stream (TS1) and that the carousel is carried by that transport stream.
  • the receiver reads the Program Map Table (PMT) carried by the transport stream. This provides information for where the receiver can find the carousel. As the receiver reads the PMT entry for the desired carousel it receives one or more identifiers (double_speed_carousel_descriptor) which indicate the presence of an additional carousel on a different transport stream.
  • PMT Program Map Table
  • the receiver determines, based on the identifiers, whether additional carousels are available which carry the same content. If no other transport streams carry the same carousel content, the receiver continues as normal (step 304) and downloads the required files from the carousel on the current transport stream. However, if the identifiers indicate that the same carousel content is also available on other transport streams, the receiver attempts to access the alternative transport streams using another tuner, such as tuner 75B. At step 306 the processor determines if a spare tuner is available. A resource management function at the receiver will be aware of which tuners are in use, and what is using them, at any time.
  • tuner 75B is instructed (at step 312) to tune to one of the transport streams identified by the double_speed_carousel_descriptor(s).
  • tuner 75B locates (at step 314) the additional carousel using the information provided in the double_speed_carousel_descriptor and both tuners 75A, 75B are used (step 316) to simultaneously download the required files from both transport streams.
  • a DSM-CC carousel comprises a number of individual modules.
  • a module is either a collection of files with a size limit or, to allow files larger than that limit to be transmitted, a single file with no size limit.
  • tuners 75A, 75B are used to receive data from the carousels on each transport stream to the level of DSM-CC modules. When the higher levels of the DSM-CC decoder request a module then the request may be satisfied by a module from either transport stream.
  • Modules from both transport streams may be cached for future use. Modules with the same module ID in both transport streams are assumed to be identical, so only one needs to be cached. It is also possible to do more or less decoding before merging the two carousels. Decoding to the level of individual files may help if the carousels contain slight differences (e.g. if the module IDs are different). However, this is more complex, and will use twice as much memory as a single carousel decoder, and so is not preferred. Decoding carousels which are different is generally not preferred since it is very hard to obtain predictable behaviour. The object carousel decoder should fall back to single-tuner operation if this kind of discrepancy is noticed.
  • a DSM-CC carousel generator 40 takes a stored application (comprising a collection of files) and a description of the carousel (stored with the application) and outputs the carousel.
  • the carousel generator 40 generates two carousels 41 , 42 which are the same, or which share some common files, and supplies the carousels to the formatting functions 35A, 35B for the respective transport streams TS1 , TS2.
  • the carousel generator 40 ensures that the common files will be transmitted by TS1 and TS2 with the required offset time between them.
  • Program Map Tables (PMT) on each transport stream are also modified to add the double_speed_carousel_descriptors described above, which provide receivers with information about which transport streams carry the same carousel content.
  • the transmission formatting function may be performed at a later stage in the transmission chain, such as just prior to transmitter 38. It is possible to duplicate some files (modules) such that they are transmitted more than once during a carousel cycle. For example, the files that are required to start an application can be grouped into a small number of modules and these modules, along with the carousel control information needed to find those modules, can be broadcast more frequently than other modules during a cycle.
  • the transmission times of those files (modules) on one transport stream is offset from the transmission times of the files on another transport stream.
  • this invention is described in terms of MHP, it is applicable to any system based on DSM-CC object carousels or indeed any data which is transmitted on a repeating basis.
  • a common set of files (or modules) can be simultaneously transmitted on more than two transport streams, with an offset between transmission times of the common files. For example, if three transport streams are used, an ideal offset would be one third of the total carousel cycle time.

Abstract

Selon l'invention, des fichiers, tels que des objets pour des applications, sont diffusés à des utilisateurs (100) au moyen d'un carrousel à diffusion répétitive sur un flux de transport (TS1). Un ensemble commun de fichiers est également diffusé sur un second flux de transport (TS2). Les fichiers communs sont décalés les uns des autres, de sorte que leur temps de transmission sont différents, par exemple, la moitié de la durée totale d'un cycle des carrousels. Un récepteur (60) comprenant deux étages d'unités initiales (75A, 75B) peuvent recevoir des carrousels des deux flux de transport (TS1, TS2). Un flux de transport (TS1) est modifié de manière à identifier quel autre flux de transport (TS2) transporte les mêmes fichiers.
