Embodiment
Below in conjunction with Figure of description, describe the realization and the operation principle thereof of the gateway that the present invention is based on real time streaming transport protocol in detail.Gateway based on real time streaming transport protocol provided by the present invention is used to safeguard the mapping relations between IPQAM channel and the TS stream.
The present invention is based on real time streaming transport protocol gateway a kind of better embodiment as shown in Figure 2.In the present embodiment, described gateway based on real time streaming transport protocol adopts the ATCA server architecture.For safeguarding the mapping relations between IPQAM channel and the TS stream, described intra-gateway based on real time streaming transport protocol has also been set up one group of mapping relations table, and described mapping table comprises Streams, Channels and Stream_channel three parts.Wherein, the information of the outside input of Streams table record TS flow data is as source IP address sip, target ip address dip, source port sport, target port dport and the program address pid etc. of this TS stream; The information of Channels record IPQAM channel is as frequency f req, symbol rate (symbol rate), modulation type modulation, channel spacing type annex and the channel spacing (channel space) etc. of this channel; Stream_channel then writes down Streams table and Channels table corresponding relation between the two, and this corresponding relation can be one to one, also can be the relation of multi-to-multi.So, the TS stream that any one sends to IPQAM can correspond in the IPQAM channel and go.
If STB wishes to receive program request TS video flowing at certain frequency, then only need tell RTSP Agent this frequency point information, RTSP Agent finds from the stream_channel mapping table information that should channel, after the information of IPQAM channel input TS stream, RTSP Agent notice RTSP Server is the transmission destination address of this TS stream, target port is adjusted to destination address and port that should assigned ip QAM channel be got final product, and this moment, STB just can receive the program of its program request.That is to say that RTSPAgent controls the attribute (frequency, symbol rate etc.) of this TS video flowing in broadcast channel by destination address and port that control RTSP Server sends the TS video flowing; Receive program request TS video flowing if wish STB at certain frequency, RTSP Agent need notify RTSP Server the TS video flowing to be sent to information such as assigned ip address, port, by above-mentioned information, RTSPAgent can learn that this TS video flowing is by the broadcast channel attribute (frequency behind the IPQAM after contrasting the stream_channel mapping table again, symbol rate etc.), last RTSP Agent notice STB utilizes above-mentioned parameter to modulate, and STB can be to specifying frequency to remove to receive the TS video flowing.Above-described is the function one of RTSP Agent of the present invention: i.e. resource management function.Under the effect of RTSP Agent, RTSP Server just can know the IP information on the IPQAM channel, RTSP Server is transmitted to STB with it by the information that RTSP Agent is obtained, and so STB promptly can receive the TS stream that sends over from RTSP Server by IPQAM.
For standardized RTSP protocol command, as Describe, Play, Pause, TearDown etc., RTSP Agent as just an intermediary and does not make any change to the content of agreement, it just is transmitted to RTSP Server with the request that STB sent, and the response that RTSP Server has been done simultaneously sends to that STB of the request of making.
After certain STB sent the SETUP request, STB did not also know himself should be tuned on which Frequency point, just can watch the video frequency program of being asked, and this moment, the main task of RTSPAgent was exactly to play the effect of translation.In the SETUP order that STB sent, include the parameter of describing this STB receive mode and receiving ability, after above-mentioned parameter and the IPQAM parameter that configures be analyzed, select a suitable IPQAM channel, this channel pairing IP address and port are used to be provided with RTSP Agent sends field from the transmission head of above-mentioned SETUP order to RTSP Server, after RTSP Server receives with this IP address and port as the destination address that sends TS stream, RTSPServer is after RTSP Agent sends correct response message, the SETUP order that RTSP Agent will send STB responds, and STB receives promptly to may be tuned to after this responses and specifies frequency reception TS flow data to carry out playback.
See also the reciprocal process schematic diagram of RTSP Agent shown in Figure 3 and STB and RTSP Server.RTSPAgent of the present invention has shielded the direct connection relational between STB and the RTSP Server, and the communication process between all STB and the RTSP Server all is to finish by RTSP Agent, concrete reciprocal process such as Fig. 3:
P1:RTSP Agent receives the Describe request of STB, and forwards the request to corresponding RTSPServer; RTSP Agent receives the response of RTSP Server and it is transmitted to STB.
P2: receive the Describe request that RTSP Agent forwards, find associated documents, and the relevant information in the file is sent to RTSPAgent by the Describe response, this wherein also comprises the response of some mistakes.
P3:RTSP Agent receives the SETUP request of STB, after searching the IPQAM resource table, the IPQAM channel that distributes a free time, and this channel the relevant information of corresponding Stream, as target ip address, information such as target port are added to goes in the above-mentioned request and this request is transmitted to RTSP Server.If receive the correct response of RTSP Server, then rewrite this echo message, the IPQAM channel information, be added to as Frequency, Annex, Modulation, SymbolRate, ChannelSpace etc. and remove and to send to STB in this response, instruction notification STB prepares to watch this program; If receive that the response of RTSP Server is wrong, then the IPQAM resource of just having distributed is discharged and be labeled as the free time.
P4: receive the SETUP request that RTSPAgent rewrites, this request is through the processing of P3 step, IP address and port that TS stream will send have been comprised, after RTSP Server receives this request, open the STB demand file, to the data sendaisle, the IP address of preparation in including request and the IPQAM channel transmission TS flow data of port are made SETUP and are responded with information initializings such as this IP address and ports.
P5:RTSP Agent receives the Play order that STB sends, and it is transmitted to RTSP Server, and the response that RTSP Server is made is transmitted to STB.
P6:RTSP Server receives Play, sends the TS flow data to IPQAM, responds; After IPQAM receives data, can be to the digital television broadcasting channel of coordinating according to the P3 step data-modulated, this moment, STB had tuned on this channel, can realize normal program request and playback.
P7: receive the F.F. that STB sends, rewind down or fixed point are play the Play instruction, and it is transmitted to RTSPServer; The response that RTSP Server is made is transmitted to STB.
P8: add F.F., rewind down or the fixed point that receive RTSP Agent forwarding are play the Play instruction, it is done suspend processing, find suitable starting point according to the requirement of request then, send the TS flow data to IPQAM again, respond.
P9: receive the Pause instruction that STB sends, it is transmitted to RTSP Server; The response that RTSP Server is made is transmitted to STB.
