본 발명은 유선방송 시청관리 제어방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 유선방송 가입자가 유료방송을 신청하였을때 신청한 시간과 채널을 일정시간 후에 체크하여 정확한 요금을 부과함과 동시에 가입자가 원하는 시간에 유효방송을 시청할 수 있는 유선방송 시청관리 제어방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a control method for watching and managing cable broadcasting, and more specifically, when a subscriber of a cable broadcasting subscriber subscribes to pay broadcasting, checks the time and channel applied after a predetermined time and charges an accurate fee at a time desired by the subscriber. The present invention relates to a wire broadcasting viewing management control method capable of watching effective broadcasting.

일반 유선방송 시스템에서 유료방송 시청관리 방법은 인터럽트 방식과 폴링방식으로 대별된다.Pay-per-view management in general cable broadcasting system is divided into interrupt method and polling method.

전자의 인터럽트방식은 가입자들이 유료방송 시청을 원할경우 제1도에 도시된 가입자 단말기(20)를 통해서 신청에 대한 신호를 유선방송국의 가입자 단말기 제어부(10)에 전송하고, 상기 가입자 단말기 제어부(10)은 신청 신호에 따른 신청허가 신호를 전송한다. 그리고, 후자의 폴링방식은 유료방송을 처음 일정시간동안 화면을 비화시키지 않고 있다가 일정시간이 끝나는 시점에서 각각의 가입자 단말기가 시청을 위한 신청을 하였는지를 확인하여 신청한 가입자 비화를 풀어주고 신청하지 않은 가입자는 계속 비화를 걸어서 시청할 수 없게하는 것이다.The former interrupt method transmits a signal for an application to the subscriber station control unit 10 of the cable broadcasting station through the subscriber station 20 shown in FIG. ) Transmits the application permission signal according to the application signal. And, the latter polling method does not illuminate the screen for the first time for pay broadcasting, and at the end of the predetermined time, it checks whether each subscriber terminal has applied for viewing and releases the subscriber's secret story. Subscribers keep talking to keep watching.

그런데, 인터럽트 방식에서는 1개의 가입자 단말기 제어부(10)가 약 3만대 이상의 가입자 단말기(20)와 전송망으로 연결되어 있어서 가입자가 동시에 신청을 할 때 신호의 충돌로 정확한 신호가 전달되지 않을 뿐만 아니라 처리속도가 늦다는 문제점이 있고, 폴링방식에서는 약 3만대 이상의 가입자 단말기(20)를 폴링하는 시간이 필요하므로 가입자가 원하는 시점에서 방송을 시청할 수 없을 뿐 아니라, 양자는 유료방송 시청시간을 정확하게 계산할 수 없어서 요금을 부과하는데 있어서 비현실적이었다.However, in the interrupt method, one subscriber station control unit 10 is connected to about 30,000 or more subscriber stations 20 through a transmission network, so that when the subscribers apply at the same time, accurate signals are not transmitted due to signal collisions, and processing speed is also increased. There is a problem that is late, the polling method requires a time to poll more than about 30,000 subscriber stations 20, not only can not watch the broadcast at the point of time that the subscriber wants, but also because both can not calculate the pay-TV viewing time accurately It was unrealistic to charge it.

따라서, 본 발명은 상기와 같은 제반결점을 해소하기 위하여 창출한 것으로서, 본 발명의 목적은 가입자가 선택한 유료방송 채널과 시청시간에 따라 정확한 요금을 부과하는 유선방송 시청관리 제어방법을 제공하는데 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, and an object of the present invention is to provide a control method for controlling broadcasting management of wire broadcasting, which charges an accurate fee according to a paid broadcasting channel and a viewing time selected by a subscriber.

상기의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 본 발명은, 가입자가 유료방송을 신청하였을때 비화를 제거하는 비화제거스텝과, 상기 가입자가 신청한 방송채널과 시청시간에 해당된 각각의 데이터를 저장하는 데이터 저장스텝과, 상기 데이터 저장스텝에 데이터가 저장된 상태에서 가입자 단말기 제어부로부터 시청여부 확인 데이터가 전송되는가 판단하는 판단스텝과, 상기 판단스텝에서 시청여부확인 데이터가 전송되었으면 데이터 저장스텝에서 저장된 채널 및 시청시간에 해당된 데이터를 송출하고 데이터를 초기화시키는 송출스텝으로 이루어진 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a non-speech step of removing a secret when a subscriber subscribes to a paid broadcast, and a data storage step of storing respective data corresponding to the broadcast channel and viewing time applied by the subscriber. A determination step of determining whether viewing confirmation data is transmitted from the subscriber station control unit while data is stored in the data storage step; and if the viewing confirmation data is transmitted in the determination step, the channel and viewing time stored in the data storage step. It is characterized by consisting of a sending step for transmitting the relevant data and initialize the data.

이하, 예시된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명을 더욱 상세이 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the illustrated drawings.

제1도는 유선방송 시스템을 나타낸 개요도로서, 유선방송국의 가입자 단말기 제어부(10)는 하나의 전송망에 접속된 다수개의 가입자단말기(20)로부터 전송된 데이터에 따라 유료방송 시청여부를 결정하도록 되어있다.1 is a schematic diagram showing a cable broadcasting system, wherein a subscriber station control unit 10 of a cable broadcasting station is configured to determine whether to view paid broadcasting according to data transmitted from a plurality of subscriber stations 20 connected to one transmission network.

그리고, 가입자 단말기(20)는 가입자가 선택한 데이터에 따라 주변장치를 제어하는 코트롤러와, 상기 콘트롤러의 제어신호에 따라 소정의 데이터를 기입하거나 독출하는 메모리를 구비한다.In addition, the subscriber station 20 includes a coat roller for controlling the peripheral device according to the data selected by the subscriber, and a memory for writing or reading predetermined data according to the control signal of the controller.

상기와 같이 구성된 유선방송 시스템에 본 발명에 따른 방법을 채용한 상태에서, 가입자가 유료방송을 시청하기위한 데이터와 선국채널 데이터를 도면에 생략된 데이터 입력부에 공급하면 가입자 단말기(20)의 코트롤러는 제2도의 스텝 S1에서 판단하여 스텝 S2와 같이 비화를 제거한다.In the state in which the method according to the present invention is employed in the above-described wired broadcasting system, if the subscriber supplies data for watching pay broadcasting and channel selection data to the data input unit omitted in the drawing, the coat roller of the subscriber terminal 20 is provided. Determination is made in step S1 of FIG. 2 to remove the secretion as in step S2.

한편, 가입자 단말기(20)의 콘트롤러는 가입자가 선국한 채널과 신청시간을 스캑하여 스텝 S3와 같이 메모리에 저장한 후 스텝 S4로 나아가서는 유선방송국의 가입자 단말기 제어부(10)으로부터 시청확인 여부 데이터가 전송되었는가를 판단하여 신청확인 여부데이터가 전송되었으며 메모리에 저장된 선국채널과 시청시간에 해당된 데이터를 송출하고 메모리된 데이터를 초기화 한 후 스텝 S3로 복귀된다.On the other hand, the controller of the subscriber station 20 scans the channel and the application time selected by the subscriber and stores it in the memory as shown in step S3. After determining whether the data has been transmitted, the application confirmation data has been transmitted, and the data corresponding to the tuning channel and the viewing time stored in the memory are transmitted, the memory data is initialized, and the process returns to step S3.

상술한 본 발명은 가입자가 선국한 채널과 유료방송 시청시간에 따라 유선방송국에서 정확한 요금부과를 할 수 있으며, 가입자가 원하는 시간에 유료방송을 항상 시청할 수 있는 효과가 있다.According to the present invention described above, the subscriber can accurately charge the wired broadcasting station according to the channel selected by the subscriber and the paying broadcasting viewing time, and the subscriber can always watch the paying broadcasting at the desired time.
