Global DTH set-box production will reach 83,500,000 in 2010

Claim, pay to one (DTH) directly according to the research report that the company In-Stat of market survey delivers newly TV trade is developing with two kinds of growth ways. The growth rate of the ripe market is dropping, the new developing market is growing at top speed. On the ripe market, increase and mainly come from the value-added service (high sharpness and digital video video and personal video video) ,And the new developing market is mainly the user rise period more powerful in quantity. The new developing market will drop integration and growth rate too afterwards. The analyst claims, on the ripe market, the demand for the set-box will present the weak state too if dropping. The sales volume of the advanced set-box of these markets will increase, and will promote the growth of the market, though market these appear user run off and the intersection of user and growth rate drop, spend and lease situations such as mode and the whole slump in demand,etc.. Because India has growth potential and relatively bulky China's better market prospect, the growth potential during the following several years in Asian-Pacific area is maximum.

IPTV (online TV) The system opens the technical introduction

Foreword

IPTV business regards it as the cathode ray tube terminal to have the most extensive audience's televisions, has merged the business characteristics of Cable network and IP network, offer broadcasting television, video on demand, TV to user and answer interdynamic multimedia services such as watching and information having a look around, interdynamic game,etc., considered to be broadcasting (Triple-Play) trebly Embodiment. IPTV, while bringing user brand-new TV to experience, it was the development of an industry that was driven, thought to have good development prospects by the industry, have received the extensive concern.

At present, China Telecom the intersection of fixed net and through hold IPTV, run the intersection of Shanghai and gentle wide the intersection of media and the intersection of group,etc. and content provider of license plate, cooperate operator, exploring the operation mode of IPTV business actively, and the one that passed business is commercial among a small circle, make great efforts to excavate the user's needs, develop business and content of pertinence, try to find out trebly and broadcast the challenge of operator's Business Process of traditional telecommunications of the business. However, because of various reasons such as IPTV business supervising and industry chain maturing status, IPTV business still at an early stage of development in China at present. If IPTV business wants the scale to develop, must break the closeness of IPTV end-to-end system at first, it influences one of the main bottlenecks of development of IPTV business scale that IPTV platform is not opened, the canonicalization to become at present. Though Ministry of Information Industry, China Telecom,etc. are promoting the canonicalization of IPTV end-to-end system actively, and made IPTV sector standard and enterprise's standard of the series, but IPTV system provider is in consideration of various factors, not offering the standardized open platform at present, this causes the operator while developing IPTV business, the following problems exist:

Set-box and IPTV platform of different manufacturers can't be interflowed, the products maturing status of set-box is not high, the set-box is difficult to produce to form scale effect and competition situation, make IPTV cost of sales remain high;

Because IPTV platform is not opened and not the canonicalization, make the difficulty of business development of appreciation based on IPTV platform great, slow, unfavorable to the fast leading-in of all kinds of IPTV value-added services of meeting the user's needs, can't cause the same value-added service the difference in the range of China is duplicated and transplanted inside the province;

The closeness of IPTV platform, cause the operator to be difficult and introduce all kinds of, IPTV terminal stations of various grades too, difficult in order to develop the activity of directing against the marketing of different users effectively;

Because communication protocol getting privately owned, unfavorable to the operator and dispose the unitary IPTV quality monitoring system in transporting and linking, monitor to the intersection of IPTV and the intersection of end and service quality to reach end while being difficult;

Because IPTV and canonicalization in closeness of system, cause, can't carry on interconnection between the many of system of manufacturer also, the system resource of media service flows, storing at the same time etc. are unable to share, increase the systematic construction cost, the business is very inconvenient in management.

So, for the long-term ordered development of IPTV business, need to set up open IPTV system urgently, make different IPTV operation platforms and terminal stations can realize interconnection, helps the operator introduce and dispose the value-added service fast. This text has described technology such as the system framework of IPTV system development, key interface in detail in terms of operator, and introduced China Telecom and opened respect progress and planned in IPTV system in the future.

IPTV system opens framework and interface

The open completeness of the slave system and thinking of business development in future are considered, open IPTV system framework and relevant interface. This text, in order to describe that convenient, has marked each interface respectively.

Can be found out from Fig. 1, IPTV standardized system framework can be divided into a set-box, independent module such as IPTV service management system, basic professional ability system, value-added operation system, content management platform, operation support system, involve 8 interface together between the every module, every function of interface as described below respectively.

A: The access between set-box and service management system authorizes the interface, using for the starting up inserting and authorizing and business is initialized and navigation. Interface this correlated to business basic interface the most under all interface, it is operator that carry on the intersection of IPTV and key interface of business control too, mainly defined according to one's own business demand by the operator.

B: Interface between set-box, EPG service and flow media professional ability system, used for offering the professional ability based on that the browser realizes, it is the key interface realizing interconnection between IPTV traffic flow too.

C: The interface between set-box and C/S value-added professional ability system, is used for offering the professional ability based on that the customer end realizes. Because the value-added service is that the operator realizes with the difference main content of the digital television, so the interface of standardized C can help the operator to introduce the value-added service fast, significant for operator.

D: Carry on the interface of set-box management, is used for offering managerial ability such as terminal configuration, terminal controlling, terminal staging. Because the set-box is that users use the carriers of all business, and the quantity of the set-box is enormous, transport and link the high cost, the set-box supervisory function that so it is flexible and strong to offer, it is very important to transporting linking of the set-box.

E: Basic professional ability, value-added professional ability system and interface of the service management system, mainly realize the subscriber personality discerns and the business is authenticated. It is interface of a side of platform because of this interface, are correlated with different types of traffic.

F: Run the interface of support system and service management system, is used mainly in the transmission in information such as user's making, canceling, account information is submitted etc.. Because IPTV is one kind of the telecommunications service, this interface mainly continues to use the prior art.

G: The interface between management platform of content and service management system, is used mainly for serving information issue, business and is divided into information transfer.

H: The interface between management platform of content and professional ability system, for the issue of the business content, including programme source and metadata.

Comment: Government should prohibit selling dull and stereotyped analogue TV as soon as possible

Relevant televisions accept the digital signal, a concept is named " integrated machine of the digital television " in China ,In fact this is a not accurate concept. It is said that strict" The digital teleset " ,Namely they can " Receive " Digital television signal.

Some television manufacturers have put out and can receive the ground figure videoly " The digital teleset " ,This is a good beginning. But we see, there is a large number of dull and stereotyped analogue TV that can't accept the digital television signal in sale on the market, it is especially unable to accept the wired digital television signal.

According to the present price, the liquid crystal television or television price of full high definition of plasma is about 10,000 yuan, they can deal with the digital video signal, for example disposed DVI or HDMI interface. From " SIGPROC signal processing of audio frequency and video " This angle, a lot of manufacturers call one's own television as the digital television one after another.

It's a pity, these panel TV sets costing an arm and a leg, in the face of the wired digital television signal or digital television signal of ground, remain " The blind person " One. After users go home, need to buy a burdensome set-box in addition.

Two major functions of the digital television set-box are that the digital tuning is decoded, and " the figure is transferred to simulation " . The one that that is to say the set-box came outed has been turned into anolog TV signals, the the intersection of simulation and the intersection of signal passing and compound the intersection of video and these kind of most original interface insert in the panel TV set.

So, if simulation panel TV set connects up the set-box, get back to " era of analogue TV " ,What the television is got is not " 100010001" ,But the waveform. After entering television, need to transform this analog signal into the digital signal again, the subsequent processing on one side, through such surplus conversion two times, the tone quality of the image quality must be influenced.

Except influencing the tone quality of the image quality, an extra set-box has increased the trouble of user operation, in addition more than ten watts of power per box, 30 million set-boxes of China, will increase many energy expenses every year. If decode digital tuning the chip to accomplish in the dull and stereotyped machine, the power consumption will be greatly reduced, meanwhile, " counts the revolving die " in the set-box Can die in function.

Prohibit selling dull and stereotyped analogue TV, face a key issue at present: That the machine-card separation standard of the wired digital television though makes, but is not carried out, the reason is the management that wired TV and Radio Corporations of all parts monopolized the set-box, do not support to offer the service of the intelligent card alone.

According to the machine-card separation standard, decoding the chip will realize in the digital television, and decipher ' The condition is received) Will reflect in the intelligent card when the content correlated with local operator. Digital television operation mode, will be similar to the mode that consumers buy the mobile phone and insert SIM.

In sum, the panel TV set of as many as ten thousand of the price, but just can't accept the analogue TV of the wired digital television signal at present. Consumer buy after the set-box, can only fall back, answer " analogue TV " Seeing and hearing experience. So, I advise the relevant department of the government to implement the machine-card separation standard of the wired digital television as soon as possible, forbid selling the simulation panel TV set on the market as soon as possible.
