An arrangement and a data transmission method are disclosed. The amount of traffic originated by the subscriptions of syndicated web feeds by terminals using point-to-point connections is monitored, the terminals being capable of broadcast reception. The cost of delivering the amount of traffic is compared to a threshold value. If the cost exceeds the threshold value the web feed is redirected to a broadcast network which starts transmitting the feed. A message is sent to the terminals capable of broadcast reception and subscribing to the feed, the message indicating a command to start receiving the feed from the broadcast network.

Description

METHOD OF DATA TRANSMISSION AND SETTLEMENT FOR DATA TRANSMISSION Field of the Invention The invention relates to data transmission. In particular, the invention relates to the distribution of Internet data to a number of terminals using broadcasting.

Background of the Invention A modern way of publishing information on the Internet is web syndication. In web syndication, the contents of an Internet site are made publicly available using feeds. A feed is an information format, typically but not necessarily an XML-based document that contains structured content. The feeds can contain summaries of large information elements and links to these elements. The elements can be text, images, audio clips, video clips, or any other information presented on a website. Various feed formats are currently in use, such as RSS 0.91 (Rich Site Summary), RSS 1.0 (RDF Site Summary, RSS 2.0 (Really Simple Syndication) and ATOM. The feeds are typically read by an aggregator or feed reader program. The user can Ref. 194311 subscribe to a feed including the feed address in a feed reader program subscription list. The feed reader can automatically check the subscribed feeds and view any updated information found. Feeds and feed reader programs present the user with a convenient way to monitor the content of interesting Internet sites. The use of the Internet has been growing continuously for several years and will probably continue to grow. The number of websites is increasing continuously. However, it has been estimated that a small percentage of all Internet sites experience more visits and contain the most popular and requested content. Consequently, these sites generate a majority of Internet traffic. It has been estimated that the most popular Internet sites have less than 30 GB of information updated daily. Although data of 30 GB per day is not a significant amount of data, it still consumes a huge Internet bandwidth because the same content is entered by many users and therefore the amount of total traffic is multiplied: For example, if each user consumes a certain bandwidth, such as 1 MB, the same data downloaded by 1000 users in a day they will consume 1 GB of bandwidth. In principle, broadcasting the same data over the air could be the most efficient way to distribute this content in terms of bandwidth to a large user number. However, broadcasting all information downloaded from the Internet may not be practical.

The invention provides several advantages. The total amount of traffic related to the Internet search is drastically reduced by using a broadcasting network for the transmission of popular content. Using a broadcasting network the individual downloads of separate users are eliminated. By monitoring the traffic of the feeds it is possible to determine which feeds are most popular and generate a significant amount of traffic. In one embodiment of the invention, the measured amount of traffic from a feed is used to determine if it could be efficient to transmit the feed using a broadcasting network for subscribers instead of letting subscribers load the feed independently. In one embodiment of the invention, the cost of providing the amount of traffic is used to determine if it could be efficient to transmit the power using a broadcasting network. The cost of the supply can include the cost of transport, and the load to servers and the network, for example. This optimizes the use of network resources, particularly the air resources, as well as the energy consumption of the terminals when the reception of broadcasting requires less energy than maintaining, for example, cellular data / GRPS connections only to verify the feeds Preferred RSS Naturally, the presented solution is suitable for only those users who have terminal equipment capable of receiving transmissions from broadcasting networks.

Brief Description of the Figures In the following, the invention will be described in more detail with reference to the embodiments and accompanying figures, in which Figure 1A illustrates an example of a system, Figure IB illustrates an example of broadcast transmission, the Figure 2 illustrates an example of a terminal, Figures 3A and 3B are flow diagrams that illustrate one embodiment of the invention, and Figures 4A and 4B are flow charts illustrating another embodiment of the invention.

Detailed Description of the Invention With reference to Figure 1A, an example of a system in which the embodiments of the invention can be applied is examined. Figure 1A shows a set of websites 100 which offer the content of the website as a feed, such as an RSS or ATOM feed. Users of terminals 102, 104 interested in the contents of the websites can subscribe to feeds 106 and read the contents using a content reader or a feed reader. The terminals can be in connection with the websites in various ways depending on the type of terminals. Terminals can be computers connected to the Internet via a wired connection. The terminals can be mobile terminal equipment connected to a mobile network, such as GSM or UMTS. The terminals can be connected to a wireless local area network. In all cases, the connection between the terminal and the website is a point-to-point connection. The content reader application that runs in the terminal contacts the website, and searches and loads the updated content.

The part 104 of the terminals can be equipped with a broadcasting receiver. Next, a DVB-H network and DVB-H transmission are used as examples of a broadcasting and broadcasting network. One skilled in the art is aware that the embodiments of the invention can be applied to other broadcasting networks as well. The following description applies to other solutions of diffusions with minor changes which are clear to a person skilled in the art. In one embodiment, the system comprises a server or proxy 108 which monitors the power traffic of terminals 104 equipped with a DVB-H receiver. The server 108 monitors the amount of traffic each feed produces and the related costs and the number of subscriptions of each feed, for example. The server can compare the amount of feed traffic of each feed to a given threshold value. The threshold value can be selected on the basis of the expected cost of providing the traffic of broadcasted traffic compared with the cost of using point-to-point connections. The cost can be defined in a variety of terms such as monetary, network capacity, and battery power requirement. The threshold value can also be selected based on the traffic load of point-to-point connections or server 108. If the amount of feed traffic for a power exceeds the given threshold, then the server 108 can initiate the supply of power broadcasting. The broadcasting supply is explained with the help of figure IB. The server 108 adds the feeds 114 selected for broadcasting and redirects 116 the feeds to a server 110 in a DVB-H network 112. In one embodiment, the DVB-H network 112 comprises an object data carousel DVB-H 118 , and the server 110 in the DVB-H network is configured to load the web feed redirected to the DVB object data carousel for cyclic transmission 120. The DVB 118 object data carousel is an application that allows a server to distribute a set of data object modules separated to the DVB-H transmitter by cyclically repeating the contents of the carousel, one or more times. Accordingly, the same data objects are repeated cyclically in the transmission stream. On the receiver side, if an application decoder needs to access a particular data object from the object data carousel, it can simply thicken the next time the data for the requested module is broadcast. The DVB object data carousel is explained in chapter 4.6 of the ETSI document "Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB): Implementation guidelines for Data Broadcasting, "ETSI TR 101 202 VI.2.1, which is incorporated herein by reference, Therefore, different aggregated feeds can be stored in the data carousel and transmitted 120 cyclically. 108 informs the content reader of the terminals 104 receiving the feeds that the transmission of the feeds is accessible from the broadcasting system In one embodiment, there are three different ways to perform the redirection: First, the server 108 redirects the client to A new location with an HTTP redirection Second, the RSS / ATOM XML content will be updated with a new extension that will request the content reader application to read from the broadcast network Third, SIP messaging can be used. they need to be augmented with appropriate metadata that is capable of expressing that the content is in the broadcasting network. tadatos in the case HTTP can be transported in a new attribute of type of Content, for RSS / ATOM one can use the same structure as for SIP, that is to say description SDP described in Handley, M. and V. Jacobson, "SDP: Session Description Protocol "RFC 2327, April 1998, which is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptor SDP can use, for example, MIME media type name: application and MIME subtype name: DVB-H. This could indicate to the customer that the DVB-H radio will be used for power. The use of HTTP and / or RSS / ATOM XML requires changes to the behavior of the RSS client to process the new extensions so that the client's program can change the reception of the RSS feed (session) to the broadcasting interface. In the case of SIP, the RSS client needs to be aware of SIP and work in conjunction with the SIP user agent in addition to being able to change the reception of power to the DVB-H interface. The redirection of the power to the broadcast channel can be implemented by HTTP protocol as follows. The server sends a REDIRECT message (code 302), which contains the new location information in the protocol location field, and appropriately formats the content type field indicating together with the location field that the content resides in the network of DVB-H / broadcasting. In one modality, this is done by introducing a new type of content such as "datacast" that could define access to the DVB-H carousel and a related URL. The use of Session Initiation Protocol and its extension for events and modifications provides a benefit to further optimize the network and resources of server when the necessary traffic can be followed dynamically. Next, the use of SIP and a content reader application that is using SIP are used as an example of a redirection method. The SIP messages (Protocol of Initiation of Session) are commonly used to start and end sessions and the protocol is widely supported. The server 108 sends a message 122 to the content reader application. The message 122 may include security credentials, and synchronization information and channel related to the broadcasting system. This can be implemented with a SIP REFER invitation or SIP re-invite message. The message is transmitted using the point-to-point connection used to carry the syndicated feed. A terminal 104 that receives a SIP REFER message from server 108 initiates reception of DVB-H and initiates reception of power transmission using DVB-H instead of point-to-point connections. The content reader application can hide the user's reception method. Accordingly, the most popular feeds are transmitted via a broadcasting system to terminals capable of receiving broadcast transmissions. With this solution, valuable transmission capacity is saved and costs are minimized in both networks, ie area network broad and broadcasting. In one embodiment, when a feed is not required more time in the terminal as a result of a user action of the terminal, the feed reader or content reader sends a message to the server 108 that the feed is not needed any longer. This can happen if the user does not subscribe to a feed, or if they simply terminate the feed reader application. This could also happen if the user has not used the content reader application or seen particular feeds in a certain time. This stop-based termination of the redirect is also applicable to HTTP-based redirection solutions or based on RSS / ATOM XML. When the server 108 monitors the feed traffic, it is advantageous to keep the information up to date. When the basic power operation is search-based and load-based and not based on automatic reception such as power broadcasting, the server 108 has no way of knowing if a terminal does not require more power, which limits current solutions. If a required number of power-related cancellations are recorded on server 108, power transmission can be reverted back to the traditional method if it turns out to be more economical due to the number of cancellations.

Figure 2 illustrates an example of a terminal in which the embodiments of the invention can be applied. The terminal comprises a controller 200, which may be a processor with associated software, such as a content reader. The terminal additionally comprises a DVB-H receiver 202 connected to the controller and a user interface 204, which may include a display, a loudspeaker and input devices, such as a keyboard. The terminal may additionally comprise a memory 206 connected to the controller 200 for storing applications and data. In addition, the terminal comprises a communication unit 208 for forming and maintaining a point-to-point communication link with the websites on the Internet. The communication unit can be a cellular transceiver, a network adapter or a wireless local area network adapter. The terminal can be a mobile phone, a personal computer, a PDA, or a respective device. Figure 3A is a flow diagram illustrating one embodiment of the invention from the point of view of the server 108 or proxy. The server 108 or proxy in question can also be a content provider, ie it can be a server which produces syndicated feeds. In step 300, server 108 monitors syndicated feed traffic from capable terminals of reception of DVB-H. The terminal capacity information can be obtained from the user profile of the user of each terminal, for example. The server 108 can monitor the amount of traffic and the number of subscriptions of each feed. The destination addresses and feed of the feed traffic and the amount of data in separate sessions can be monitored and statistics can be collected related to each syndicated feed. In one mode, the cost of supplying the amount of traffic is determined. In step 302, it is checked if the traffic of each monitored power exceeds a given threshold value. If the amount of traffic of a given power directed to terminals capable of receiving DVB-H is sufficiently large, it may be advantageous to transmit the popular power using a broadcasting network. If such a feed is not found, monitoring continues in step 300. If such a popular feed is found, the feed is added and redirected to a DVB-H network in step 304. The server communicates with the DVB-H network and receives information about possible security credentials and channel information and synchronization related to the transmission of power by the DVB-H system. In one modality, it is verified whether the cost of supplying the amount of traffic exceeds a given threshold value. In step 306, the server 108 sends a message to the terminals that subscribe the redirected power. The message comprises information that a power is now available via the DVB-H network transmission. The message may also comprise information related to DVB-H transmission, such as security credentials and channel information and transmission synchronization provided by the DVB-H service system that is connected to the DVB-H transmitter. The message is transmitted using the point-to-point connection used to carry the syndicated feed. The message can be implemented with a re-invitation message SIP or SIP REFER. SIP messages (Session Initiation Protocol) are commonly used to initiate, control and terminate sessions. The SIP REFER method is described in Sparks, R., "The Session Initiation Protocol Refer Method," RFC 3415, April 2003, which is incorporated herein by reference. RFC documents can be obtained from the website www.ietf.org. REFER is a SIP method which can be used to indicate that the recipient of the message should initiate a connection with a third party using the contact information provided in the message. In this case, the message is used to indicate that the terminal receiving the message should initiate DVB-H reception and start the reception of a syndicated diet given using DVB-H. Accordingly, in one embodiment, the message sent by the server 108 to the terminals comprises the following information: identification of a syndicated power subscribed by the power reader of the terminal, notification that the power is transmitted using the DVB-H network and identification of DVB-H parameters that enable the DVB-H reception of the power supply. Figure 3B is a flow diagram illustrating an embodiment of the invention from the point of view of a terminal. In step 310, a terminal with a reception capability DVB-H is subscribing a reception of a syndicated power using a point-to-point connection. The terminal can be connected to the Internet via a wireless connection, a wireless local area network (WLAN) or a cellular data connection, such as GPRS, for example. A feed reader running in the terminal has subscribed to a set of syndicated feeds. The power reader can be configured to check feed updates periodically using the point-to-point connection. Any updated information is displayed on the terminal's display. In step 312, the terminal receives a message from the server 108. In one embodiment, the message comprises identification of a syndicated feed subscribed by the terminal feed reader and a notification that the power is transmitted using DVB-H network. The message may additionally comprise identification of DVB-H parameters that enable DVB-H reception of the power supply. In step 314, the terminal's power reader initiates DVB-H reception based on the parameters in the message. In step 316, the feed reader of the terminal receives the syndicated power using DVB-H. In this case, the updated feed information is automatically transmitted to the power reader in the DVB-H transmission. The feeding reader does not need more time to carry out periodic checks. As the feed reader can subscribe to several feeds, the feed reader can perform periodic checks with respect to the updates of the other feeds received using point-to-point connections. The user of the terminal may be unaware of the way the updates are received by the power reader. The power reader can be configured to display the feeds in a similar way without considering the way in which the updates are received. Figure 4A is a flow diagram illustrating one embodiment of the invention from the point of view of a terminal. In this mode, the user of a terminal wants to stop the subscription and read a syndicated feed. In step 400, the feed reader of a terminal receives a user command indicating that the user does not wish to be subscribed any longer and receive a given power. In step 402, the power reader checks whether the power is received using DVB-H reception. If this is not the case, the power is received using conventional point-to-point connections. In step 404, the power reader clears the power data from the terminal memory and ceases checking for updated power information. In step 406, if the power is received using DVB-H, the power reader clears the power data from the terminal memory and terminates the DVB-H reception of the power supply. If there are other supplies that are received via the DVB-H connection, the DVB-H reception continues with respect to these feeds. In step 408, the terminal sends a message to the server 108. The message indicates that the terminal is no longer subscribing to the given power. On the basis of the message, the server 108 can keep the feed traffic information current. The message can be implemented with a SIP-SUBSCRIBE method, where the time of Subscription life is defined as zero. The lifetime of a subscription is defined by the "Expires" header of the SUBSCRIBE method. The SIP SUBSCRIBE method is described in Roach, A.B., "Session Initiation Protocol - Specific Event Ñotification", RFC 3265,! June 2002, which is incorporated herein for reference. In step 410, the process ends. Figure 4B is a flow diagram illustrating one embodiment of the invention from the point of view of the server 108 or proxy. In this mode, the user of a terminal wants to stop the subscription and read a syndicated feed. In step 420, the server 108 receives a message from a terminal that is receiving a power using DVB-H. The message indicates that the terminal does not subscribe any longer to a given power supply. In step 422, the server 108 determines the current amount of traffic related to the given power. The server 108 can verify the number of terminals that still receive the power using DVB-H and the amount of data transferred, for example. In step 424, the server 108 checks whether the determined feed traffic exceeds a given threshold value. If the amount of traffic of the given power directed to the terminals capable of receiving DVB-H is still large enough, the transmission of DVB-H may be continued in step 426. If the amount of traffic has decreased below the given threshold value, it may be economically feasible to discontinue the DVB-H transmission. In such a case, the aggregation of food and the redirection of the power to the DVB-H network is terminated in step 428. In step 430, the server 108 sends a message to the terminals which were receiving the power using DVB-H. The message indicates to the power readers that they run on the terminals that the DVB-H transmission of the power is discontinued and the power supply must be updated using conventional point-to-point connections and no redirection is in effect. The embodiments of the invention can be carried out in an electronic device, comprising a user interface, a point-to-point communication unit, a DVB-H receiver and a controller connected in an operational manner to the user interface, communication unit and the DVB-H receiver. The controller can be configured to perform at least some of the steps described in connection with the flow diagrams of Figures 3B, 4A and in connection with Figures 1A, IB and 2. The modalities can be implemented as a computer program that includes instructions for executing a computer process for receiving data, the process includes: receiving a syndicated feed using a point-to-point connection; receive a message in a point-to-point connection, the message identifies a syndicated feed received using a point-to-point connection, DVB-H transmission parameters and information that the power can be decoded from a DVB-H transmission using the parameters of DVB-H transmission; start reception of DVB-H on the basis of the received message, and start reception of feeding using the transmission parameters of DVB-H. The program can be a feed reader program, for example. The computer program can be stored in a computer program distribution medium readable by a computer or a processor. The computer program means may be, for example, but not limited to, a system, device or means of electrical, magnetic, optical, infrared or semiconductor transmission. The computer program means may include at least one of the following means: a computer readable medium, a program storage medium, a recording medium, a computer readable memory, a random access memory, a single memory erasable programmable reading, a computer-readable software distribution package, a computer-readable signal, a computer-readable telecommunications signal, computer-readable printed matter, and a compressed computer-readable software package. Although the invention has been described above with reference to an example in accordance with the accompanying figures, it is clear that the invention is not restricted to this but can be modified in various ways within the scope of the appended claims. It is noted that in relation to this date, the best method known to the applicant to carry out the aforementioned invention, is that which is clear from the present description of the invention.
