Description of drawings
Fig. 1 represents the digital television system structural representation that two-way services trigger that has of the present invention.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments the present invention is described in further detail:
The present invention is in the head-end system of cable TV, increases " cable digital TV and Network control module " and realizes cable digital TV and the Network fusion at head end.According to shown in Figure 1, build digital television system framework with two-way services triggering, this framework comprises following main relevant portion:
Wherein " EPG editor module 15 " generates EPG information, this information offered " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " and " PSI/SI server 16 ";
Wherein " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " analyzes EPG information, control " cable digital TV content server 11 " and " cable network service server 12 ", thus merge Digital Television and Network content;
Wherein the information of " cable network service server 12 " basis " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " is specifically organized corresponding Network service;
The soul of digital TV contents control system is the editing and processing of EPG. in the One-to-All Broadcast channel at digital TV contents place, have only EPG information to be used for the play content and the time of designation number TV, it has comprised the detailed program arrangement information of Digital Television comprehensively, for One-to-All Broadcast channel plan goes out content blueprints current and many days. simultaneously, after general cable TV station carries out digital television business, corresponding EPG editing and managing system all has been installed. therefore, the present invention adopts information among the EPG as the triggering basis of two-way services.
" cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " is by mutual with " EPG editor module 15 ", analyze the EPG information of Digital Television, the fusion of organization number TV and Network content in view of the above, the cooperation of two logical network is finished in control " cable digital TV content server 11 " and " cable network service server 12 " respectively.
In the EPG of cable digital TV information table, insert the network of relation business information, realize cable digital TV and the fusion of Network in transport stream.Here, in order to realize the tight fusion on time point of two-way services and current digital TV contents, present embodiment has adopted the EIT table in the EPG information, as the two-way services foundation stone related with digital television business.
The EIT table is as shown in the table:
Both comprised the relevant content information (service_id of program in the EIT table, transport_network_id, original_network_id, event_id etc.), temporal information (the start_time that has comprised playing programs again, duration etc.), so the triggering .EIT table that present embodiment adopts it to control the two-way services relevant with digital TV contents allows to insert voluntarily user's private descriptor (descriptor), this provides fabulous interface.
In the privately owned descriptor of EIT, select one to leave user-defined Tag (0xA0) value for, identify distinctive two-way services descriptor with this.
Privately owned descriptor is as shown in the table:
Figure G2006100568284D00051
In this descriptor, according to the difference of concrete business (interactive_service_type), the content of parameter that corresponding transmission is different.
In terminal receiver, analyze the transport stream relevant information, start specific interactive service, finally realize cable digital TV and Network fusion at user side.Aspect terminal, user's monitoring STB is at digital-TV channel, in case the interactive service descriptor that carries in the discovery EPG information, resolve according to relevant self information, after the series judgement is passed through, " the cable network service server 12 " of corresponding interactive program of starter motor top box and head end set up contact, and specific interactive service brings into operation.
Two kinds of application examples illustrate above-mentioned terminal receiver processing procedure below, and wherein set-top box is a terminal receiver.
1. the program related web page is used;
On the set-top box of supporting browser, can realize the triggering of program-related information webpage.For example need the program A of viewer polls to broadcast, " EPG editor module 15 " sends to content corresponding, temporal information " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " and " PSI/SI server 16 ", " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " notice " cable network service server 12 " is prepared the relevant contestant webpage of voting, and the EIT table that " PSI/SI server 16 " will carry the ballot info web inserts the transmission of digital television broadcasting channel.
If the set-top box of user side is being watched program A, can find the associated description of the ballot webpage in the EIT table at once, at this moment set-top box will can be browsed the additional program-related information that data network transmits of passing through by the interface prompt user, if the user selects to browse, the info web that the built-in browser of set-top box carries in showing according to EIT, connect with head end " cable network service server 12 ", show the ballot webpage on television set, the user uses a teleswitch and selects the player who oneself likes to vote.
2. the relevant chatroom of program;
Embedded with network chatroom software in set-top box, can realize watching the interchange between the TV user of same popular program. for example program B broadcasts, " EPG editor module 15 " is with content corresponding, temporal information sends to " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " and " PSI/SI server 16 ", " cable digital TV and Network control module 17 " notice " cable network service server 12 " is set up program B chatroom, and the EIT table that " PSI/SI server 16 " will carry the chatroom address information inserts the transmission of digital television broadcasting channel.
If the set-top box of user side is being watched program B, can find the associated description of the chatroom in the EIT table at once, at this moment set-top box will have the relevant chatroom of program to enter by the interface prompt user, if the user selects to enter, the chatroom software startup that set-top box is built-in, according to the chatroom address information of carrying in the EIT table, connect with the chat room services of head end " cable network service server 12 ", on television set, open the chatroom window, the prompting user lands, begin relevant chat room services, its advantage is and the combining of digital TV contents that what enter relevant chatroom all is to have to communicate to watch the colony of hobby.
It should be noted last that above embodiment is only unrestricted in order to technical scheme of the present invention to be described.Although the present invention is had been described in detail with reference to embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, technical scheme of the present invention is made amendment or is equal to replacement, do not break away from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention, it all should be encompassed in the middle of the claim scope of the present invention.
