Description

SPECIALIZED REGION MANAGMENT IPTV SERVICE SERVER SYSTEM AND LOCAL BROADCASTING METHOD USING THE SAME}

The present invention relates to an IPTV broadcasting server technology, and more particularly, to a specialized regional management IPTV service server system and a local broadcasting method using the same.

In general, IP (Internet Protocol) TV is defined as a multimedia service such as television, video, audio, document, graphics, and data services provided through an IP network that is guaranteed of quality, security, and reliability. This includes a live TV service, and a stored video service such as VOD, which is transmitted in a unicasting manner.

In general, an IPTV system is composed of a broadcast server for transmitting content (program) to an IP network, and an IPTV set-top box (STB) for receiving and playing content from an IP network. The video signals transmitted through the IP network are MPEG-2 or MPEG4. As a bit stream encoded according to the same compression scheme, a live TV service can access broadcasts by accessing a multicast stream according to the IGMPv2 protocol, and in the case of a VOD service, a video content can be viewed in a unicast manner according to the RTSP protocol.

Currently, the IPTV broadcasting service structure is a broadcast transmission method server structure, in which an electronic program guide (EPG) and contents are collectively transmitted from a central server. Such a centralized structure has a problem that it is impossible to provide a program service specific to a specific region because centralized program management is performed.

The present invention is to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a specialized local management IPTV service server system and a local broadcasting method using the same.

In other words, the regional broadcasting using the specialized local management IPTV service server system according to the present invention is to provide localized broadcasting and other specialized broadcasts by adding local advertisements, information, etc. or inserting separate contents in units of regions.

In order to achieve the above object, the system of the present invention is a hierarchical structure consisting of a central server system for providing IPTV service nationwide and at least one local server system for providing IPTV broadcasting service specialized for a corresponding region. Each of the regional server systems is characterized in that the broadcast subscribers of the region is connected.

The central server system is composed of a central broadcasting server for transmitting the central EPG data and the broadcast content according to the central EPG data in a streaming manner, wherein the regional server system distributed in each region is an EPG received from the central server system. And a local broadcasting server that broadcasts the local EPG data reconstructed and edited according to regional characteristics and broadcast contents according to the reconstructed local EPG data to local broadcasting subscribers.

In order to achieve the above object, the method of the present invention comprises the steps of: providing, by a central broadcasting server, broadcast contents according to central EPG data and central EPG data; A local broadcasting server editing the central EPG data received from the central broadcasting server and reconstructing the regional EPG data specific to the region; Editing broadcast content received from the central broadcast server according to the reconstructed local EPG data to configure broadcast content according to local EPG data; And broadcasting the reconstructed broadcast content to a local broadcast subscriber according to the reconstructed local EPG data.

The specialized regional management IPTV service server system and the local broadcasting method using the same according to the present invention facilitate the attraction of local customers by appropriately reflecting the requirements of a specific region, and provide additional services according to the characteristics of the region to increase sales. You can benefit.

The technical problems achieved by the present invention and the practice of the present invention will be more clearly understood by the preferred embodiments of the present invention described below. The following examples are merely illustrated to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

1 is a schematic diagram showing a specialized regional management IPTV service server system according to the present invention.

Specialized regional management IPTV service server system proposed in the present invention and the local broadcasting method using the same, as shown in Figure 1, the central server system 110 for providing IPTV services nationwide, and IPTV broadcasting services specialized in the region It has a hierarchical structure consisting of at least one or more local server systems 120 for providing a, each local server system 120 is connected to the broadcast subscribers 130 of the area. Here, the region-specific IPTV broadcasting service is to broadcast local information, such as local advertisements or local government offices provided in the region. Preferably, each regional server system 120 may be arranged in administrative districts such as city, metropolitan city, and district.

Referring to FIG. 1, the central server system 110 includes a central broadcast server 116 that transmits the central EPG data 112 and the broadcast content 114 according to the central EPG data 112 in a streaming manner. The regional server system 120 distributed in the region is configured to edit and reconstruct the EPG data 112 received from the central server system 110 according to the regional characteristics and the reconstructed regional EPG data 122. ) Consists of a local broadcast server 126 that broadcasts the broadcast content 124 to the local broadcast subscribers 130.

In addition, each regional server system 120 for providing a localized IPTV service receives EPG data, content and advertisement files provided through the EPG data from the central server system 110, and re-edits the EPG information Local broadcast content is inserted by substituting advertisement file or contents at specific time.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure for local broadcasting using a specialized regional management IP service server according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure for performing local broadcasting using a specialized regional management IP service server according to the present invention. to be.

As shown in FIG. 2, the local broadcasting server 116 broadcasts the contents according to the central EPG data 112 and the central EPG data 112 as shown in FIG. 2. Providing step 114, and reconstructing, by the local broadcasting server 126, the central EPG data 112 received from the central broadcasting server 116 into regional EPG data 122 specialized for the region. (S12) and the broadcast content 124 according to the local EPG data 122 by deleting the broadcast content 114 received from the central broadcasting server 116 and adding new content according to the reconstructed local EPG data 122. Configuring step S12 and broadcasting the reconstructed broadcast content 124 according to the reconstructed local EPG data 122 to the local broadcasting subscriber 130 (S13).

As described above, each local broadcast server 126 according to the present invention receives the broadcast content according to the central EPG data 112 and the central EPG data 112 from the central broadcast server 116 as shown in FIG. If editing is required for specialized local broadcasting, the central EPG data 112 received from the central broadcasting server 116 is edited and reconfigured into regional EPG data 122 specialized for the region (S21 to S23). The broadcast content 124 corresponding to the local EPG data 122 may be deleted by deleting a part of the broadcast content received from the central broadcasting server 116 or adding new broadcast content corresponding to the local characteristics according to the reconstructed local EPG data 122. And reconstruct the broadcast content 124 reconstructed according to the reconstructed local EPG data 122 to the local broadcast subscriber 130 (S25).
