In the following description, a grandmother, a dad, and a daughter are described as an example of a family member in a family, and the terminal of the grandmother is referred to as terminal 1 (11), the terminal of the dad is referred to as terminal 2 (12), and the daughter side. The terminal of the terminal 3 as an example will be described.

In the present invention, for a large-capacity content or a necessary content that is interested in the family members [grandmother, dad and daughter] in the home, for example, received a content keyword [aka interest keyword] from the terminal of someone in the family member through the home server 20. In this case, the service server 30 collects the content data corresponding to the content keyword from the content DB server (41, 42, 43) of the content provider (CP) side and transmits to the home server 20 of the home In order to be stored, a member of the family provides a service for receiving and viewing the content data stored in the home server 20 to his terminal.

In addition, in the present invention, in providing the content data corresponding to the content keyword from the service server 30 to the home server 20 in the house, the advertisement server matching the content is inserted into the content data to the home server 20. To send).

To this end, in the present invention, it is preferable to subscribe to the service by registering a member of the household member or each member of his or her family through a website, a customer center, etc. operated by the service server 30.

In addition, the family members in the home may register the host name of the home server 20 of the home at the time of joining the service additionally, but in consideration of the difficulty of utilizing IT, the host name registration of the home server at the time of joining the service is determined. There is no need to do it. For example, when the service server 30 receives a subscriber service request through the home server 20 from a specific terminal 11, 12, 13 through the home server 20, the host name of the home server 20 that has sent the content keyword. Or it can figure out the MAC address.

Then, the advantages of the service proposed by the present invention together with the function, operation and service processing of each component shown in FIG. 1 will be described in detail.

The home network built in the premises is any wired / wireless communication method among various wired / wireless communication methods such as WLAN, WPAN, Bluetooth Protocol, Ultra-wideband Protocol (UWB), power line communication, and Ethernet. It may be implemented in a manner.

The terminal 11, 12, 13 on the side of the family member is a computer [eg; Desktop PCs, laptops, etc.], communication devices [eg; Cell phones, WiBro terminals, etc.], multimedia devices [eg; PDAs, portable video players (PMPs), portable audio players (MP3Ps), portable game devices (such as Sony's PSP), portable navigation devices, etc.]. It is sufficient if the data communication function with the 20 is mounted.

The home server 20 is equipped with an internet access function, data communication (transmission / reception) function with terminals 11, 12, and 13 on the family member side, data storage function, and preferably, a large amount of content data storage function and content delivery function. It is enough if it is done. Of course, in the home network configuration, a well-known home networking gateway function for providing a home network service through a connection between an external Internet and home appliances may also be mounted. The home server 20 according to the present invention will be described later in detail with reference to FIG. 3.

The content DB server 41, 42, 43 of the content provider (CP) side includes a variety of content data produced by each content provider, for example, a large amount of high-quality content data (e.g. a movie file exceeding several gigabytes). , Game files, music files, etc.) are stored. In addition, each content data includes a content ID (CID) for identifying the corresponding content and meta information including information about the corresponding content (eg, content category, content name, content attribute, data format, etc.). have.

On the other hand, the general DDNS server allows a device that is assigned a floating IP address to use the Internet service as if it has been assigned a fixed IP address, and does not store the host name and IP address as a file like a normal DNS server. Instead, it stores and manages hostnames and floating IP addresses for specific devices on its own main memory.

In the present invention, the DDNS server 50 registers the floating IP address assigned to the home server 20 and the host name of the home server 20 through an internet access system (not shown), and thus the service server 30. ) Transmits the content data to the home server 20 using the floating IP address corresponding to the host name of the home server registered in the DDNS server 50 in transmitting the content data to the home server 20.

That is, the home server 20 on the home network may change its IP address from time to time due to a system (re) booting by a user, so that the service server 30 receives the home server 20 when the content keyword is received. Even if the user's floating IP address is verified, the floating IP address of the home server 20 is changed after the user requests the content, but before the content data is provided, thereby preventing the destination of the contents data from being found. To do this.

Of course, in the present invention, a DDNS server 50 is provided for verifying the IP address of the home server. However, when the home server 20 is assigned a fixed IP address, a general DNS server or a DNS server is not provided. You can also send and receive content using only the home server's fixed IP address as destination information. Hereinafter, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the DDNS server 50 is provided, and the home server 20 of the home is assigned a floating IP address by an Internet access system (not shown), and the service server 30 is provided. ) Will be described as an example of checking the host name and the floating IP address of the home server 20 registered in the DDNS server 50 at the time of content transmission.

The service server 30 will be described later in detail with reference to FIG. 2, and as described above, the home server 20 will be described in detail later with reference to FIG. 3.

FIG. 2 is a detailed block diagram of an embodiment of the service server of FIG. 1.

As shown in FIG. 2, the service server 30 according to the present invention includes a subscriber authentication unit 61, a keyword processing unit 62, a content collecting unit 63, a content-ad matching unit 64, and a content destination inquiry. The unit 65, the content transmission unit 66, the subscriber DB 67, the content temporary DB 68 and the advertisement DB (69).

The subscriber DB 67 stores subscriber information subscribed to the service, for example, ID / password of each member of the household. In addition, the subscriber DB 67 may also store information such as a host name or a MAC address or a fixed IP address of the home server of the subscriber.

The content temporary DB 68 stores various content data collected by the content collecting unit 63. The content temporary DB 68 responds to a subscriber's request rather than permanently storing a large amount of content data requested by a large number of subscribers according to storage conditions. It is desirable to temporarily store content data for a predetermined period of time. In addition, the content temporary DB 68 is preferably used as a temporary working memory space for the content-ad matching unit 64 to combine the content data and the advertisement data.

The advertisement DB 69 stores various advertisement data requested from a plurality of advertisers, and each of the advertisement data includes a content ID (CID) [note; Advertising data is also a kind of content] and metadata including information about the advertisement (eg, advertisement category, advertisement name, advertisement attribute, data format, etc.).

In the present invention, as described above, in the transmission of content from the service server 30 to the home server 20 in the home, the content data and the advertisement data are combined and provided to the home family members, which the subscribers watch through the advertisement. This is to allow the content to be viewed at a low price through free or a certain rate discount, and to generate high profits through attracting advertisements.

In addition, in the present invention, the advertisement DB is implemented on the service server 30, which transmits the content to the family member in the house due to performing advertisement meta information inquiry with the advertisement server independently operated by the advertiser. This is to prevent delays and to promote the management of advertisement data. To this end, it is preferable to obtain advertisement data and corresponding advertisement meta information from the advertiser side by a service manager or the like, and store and manage the advertisement data in the advertisement DB 69 in advance.

Of course, in the present invention, only pure content data can be transmitted without inserting an advertisement when providing content to a family member in the house, and the content-ad matching unit 64 and the advertisement DB 69 are not an essential component of the present invention. Will be readily understood by those skilled in the art.

The subscriber authentication unit 61 accesses from a terminal of someone in the household family member (hereinafter, the terminal 3 13 of the daughter side will be described as an example) through the home server 20 on the service server website. When receiving the content request, the member [daughter] is requested to input the ID / password, and the ID / password received accordingly is checked in the subscriber DB 67 to authenticate whether the subscriber is a legitimate subscriber. In this case, the subscriber [daughter] inputs a keyword, a subject, a name, etc. related to the content to be serviced on his terminal 3 (13) when the authentication succeeds [login successful] as a valid subscriber and requests the corresponding content. Of course, in the present invention, the subscriber may log in by inputting the content keyword together with the ID / password.

The keyword processing unit 62 receives the content keyword received from the terminal 3 13 of the subscriber [daughter] through the home server 20 when the subscriber authentication unit 61 successfully authenticates as a valid subscriber. ) In the corresponding subscriber field. Here, the keyword processing unit 62 may also store information (for example, a host name, a Mac address, an IP address, etc.) regarding the home server 20 on the subscriber side with the content keyword.

The content collecting unit 63 uses the content keyword of the subscriber [daughter] stored in the subscriber DB 67 in the keyword processing unit 62 to each content provider (CP) side through a known content search robot agent. The content meta information on the content DB server (41, 42, 43) is retrieved, and the corresponding content data corresponding to the content keyword is collected and stored in the content temporary DB 68. Here, in the present invention, the keyword processing unit 62 stores the content keyword of the subscriber [daughter] in the subscriber DB 67 and performs the corresponding content collection in the content collection unit 63, which is a real-time request for a large number of content requests of numerous subscribers. This is to prevent the delay of service by other subscribers. In addition, by executing the content navigation robot agent as a background process in content collection, it handles numerous content requests without any system load.

The content-ad matching unit 64 searches the advertisement meta information on the advertisement DB 69 using the content meta information collected by the content collecting unit 63, finds the corresponding advertisement data corresponding to the content data, and searches the content data. And ad data. Here, in order to enhance the effect of advertising in combining the content data and the advertisement data, it is preferable to insert the advertisement data in front of the beginning of the reproduction of the content data, so that the family members can watch the advertisement in order to enjoy the content. You can enjoy the content. In addition, the present invention generates the advertisement-content to be provided to the family members in the home through the content-advertisement meta information matching, by providing the same class of advertising-content to the family members in the house, subscribers have a great antagonism about viewing the advertisement It is expected that this service will be used without any inconvenience. On the other hand, if the corresponding advertisement data corresponding to the content data is not found, only the content data is transmitted when the content is transmitted.

The content destination inquiry unit 65 inquires the DDNS server 50 of destination information to transmit the content data combined with the advertisement data in the content-ad matching unit 64 to receive the IP address of the corresponding home server 20. . That is, the content destination inquiry unit 65 throws subscriber information (eg, a host name or a MAC address, etc.) that has requested a content stored on the subscriber DB 67 to the DDNS server 50, and the corresponding home server 20. Obtain the IP address of your. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that such a content destination inquiry unit 65 is not an essential component of the present invention.

The content transmission unit 66 sets the IP address of the home server 20 of the subscriber [daughter] side inquired by the content destination inquiry unit 65 as a destination, so that the advertisement data is transferred from the content-ad matching unit 64. The combined content data is transmitted to the home server 20. In this case, the content transmission unit 66 preferably transmits the content data combined with the advertisement data to the home server 20 by using a push method.

3 is a detailed block diagram of an embodiment of the home server of FIG. 1.

As shown in FIG. 3, the home server 20 according to the present invention includes a gateway 81, a content storage DB 82, a control unit 83, and a content delivery unit 84.

The gateway 81 performs a function for interworking between the Internet outside the home network and the home network. In the present invention, the terminal 11, 12, 13 of the family member side on the home network and the service server 30 on the Internet. Relay the connection. To this end, the gateway 81 performs a dynamic IP address allocation and routing function by the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Of course, the gateway 81 may also perform a well-known gateway function for providing a home network service through a connection between a home management server (HOMS) on the Internet and a home appliance (not shown).

The content storage DB 82 stores and manages content data combined with advertisement data received from the service server 30 through a push method, for example, content data requested by a daughter of a family member in the house. The content storage DB 82 is preferably secured to a certain size for storage of a large amount of content data received from the service server 30 is requested by all family members from time to time. In addition, the content storage DB 82 is accessible through the home server itself or the terminal of each family member side, through which the family members can add, delete, change, manage, etc. the content stored in the content storage DB 82. Can be done.

The control unit 83 controls the terminal and the service according to a request for accessing a service server from a terminal of a member of a family member in the home network (any of grandmother, dad, and daughter), for example, a subscriber's website access request for content keyword input. The server 30 is connected through the gateway 81. In addition, when the control unit 83 receives a specific content stored in the content storage DB 82 from the terminal of someone in the household family member, the content is transmitted to the corresponding terminal through a content delivery unit 84 in a streaming manner or the like. do.

In addition, when the home server (re) booting is performed by the user, the control unit 83 preferably connects to the DDNS server 50 and (re) registers the changed IP address together with the host name.

The content delivery unit 84 delivers the content to the terminal of the family member side by the streaming method or the like under the control of the control unit 83. For example, in the present invention, in consideration of the fact that the terminal of each family member is provided with a small capacity storage, it is preferable to transmit the corresponding content in a streaming manner or the like for a large content.

As described above, in the present invention, as a result of the daughter's request for some content, the corresponding content is stored in the home server 20 of the home and managed. You can use the terminal to access the home server 20 to share and enjoy the contents, thereby improving the family community, reducing the burden of repurchasing content, and enjoying high-quality and large contents due to the limited storage capacity of the terminal. You can improve what you didn't have.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for providing content based on a home network according to the present invention.

First, when the home server 20 receives a service server access request from any member terminal of a family member in the home, the member server connects the terminal to the service server 30 (401).

Thereafter, the service server 30 authenticates the member based on the subscriber information stored in the subscriber DB 67 when receiving the content request according to the reception of the content keyword from the member terminal through the home server 20. (402).

Then, if the subscriber authentication is successful, the service server 30 queries the external content DB server 41, 42, 43 by using the content keyword received from the member terminal and corresponds to the content keyword. The content data is collected (403).

Thereafter, the service server 30 inquires whether advertisement data corresponding to the collected content data exists on the advertisement DB 69 (404).

Thereafter, if the corresponding advertisement data exists on the advertisement DB 69 as a result of the advertisement data inquiry, the service server 30 combines the collected content data with the corresponding advertisement data (405).

Then, the service server 30 transmits the content data combined with the advertisement data to the home server 20 by setting a destination based on the subscriber information (406). Here, the service server 30 throws home server identification information (eg, a host name, etc.) of the member side stored on the subscriber DB 67 to the external DDNS server 50 and the corresponding home server 20. After obtaining the IP address of, the obtained IP address is set as a destination and the content data is transmitted to the corresponding home server 20.

Accordingly, when the service server 30 transmits the content data combined with the advertisement data to the home server 20, the home server 20 combines the advertisement data received from the service server 30. The data is stored on its own (407).

After that, after the content data combined with the advertisement data is stored in the home server 20 itself, the home server 20 receives the content request from any member terminal of the in-house family member and stores the content itself. The corresponding content, which is present, is delivered to the member side terminal (408).

On the other hand, the method of the present invention as described above can be written in a computer program. And the code and code segments constituting the program can be easily inferred by a computer programmer in the art.
