Session 3Home Network ArchitectureConclusions & Recommendations Mayumi Matsumoto NEC Magnus Communications, Ltd.
Presentations in Session • Home Network Architecture and Logical Entities/ Steven Saunders, CableLabs • Bridging to CE Devices across IP Domains / Mayuko Tanaka, Hitachi Ltd. • Home Network Service Aggregation Platform and Service Collaborations / Nobuo Fujii, NTT • Digital Television as “Integrated Information Device”/ Haruo Okuda, NHK
Highlights from Presentation 1“Home Network Architecture and Logical Entities” • Main issues • Focus on Management, Security, and QoS • Transport technology independent • Accommodate IP and non-IP home devices • Logical Entities and Domains • Portal Services Element • Conclusions • Flexible and expandable architecture allowing different domains • Configurable PS functionalities • Applicable for A/V contents to time critical services
Highlights from Presentation 2“Bridging to CE Devices across IP Domains ” • Main issues • Seamless access between IP domain and proprietary domains • No change of the existing CE devices in the proprietary domains • Common commands and common directory schemes for unified access • Common protocol and secure access for inside and outside home • Domain Gateway Architecture • Conclusions • Need Domain gateways for connecting IP and proprietary domains • Home gateway is for connecting inside and outside home • Define common commands and common directory information format
Highlights from Presentation 3“Home Network Service Aggregation Platform and Service Collaborations ” • Main issues • Software based OPEN architectural Service Gateway • OSGi platformJava-based software platform • Service Aggregation Platform • Service operation architecture on Service gateway • Conclusions • Needs for Service Gateway (SGW) to handle diversified services • Service collaboration function will increase values of home services • Some new standards for SGW is needed
Highlights from Presentation 4“Digital Television as “Integrated Information Device”” • Main issues • Connecting ISDB to Home Network via Home Gateway • Copt Right Protection for Digital Receiver and Digital Storage • Home Server and RMP (Rights Managements and Protection) • Conclusions • ISDB is a solution of future broadcasting that shall be connected with Home Network • Copy Right Protection is strictly required for Digital Storage Device • Spreading Services are expected by Digital Television
Overview of issues in the session • Architecture is required to terminate access networks and to control Home Networks. • Architecture shall be independent from Transport technologies. • Need Domain Gateway (DGW) for connecting IP and proprietary domains • Common commands and directory schemes for unified access are required. • Needs for Service Gateway (SGW) to handle diversified services • Some new standards for SGW is needed • Future broadcasting shall be connected with Home Network • Copy Right Protection is strictly required for Digital Storage Device
Recommendations • Basic Home Network Architecture is ITU-T Rec. J.190 • Needs enhancement to connect Proprietary Domains • Common commands and directory schemes for unified access are to be specified • Some new standards for Service GW is needed to handle diversified services • Need mechanism (DGW) enabling broadcast services to connect with Home Network • Copy Right Protection shall be specified in Home Networking environment
Follow-up actions • Enhancement of ITU-T Rec. J.190 Series • Works to be continued for ; • Specifying unified access including Common commands and directory schemes • Studying Service GW to handle diversified services • Creating mechanism enabling broadcast services to connect with Home Network • Inclusion of Copy Right Protection in Home Networking environment
Conclusion • Agreed to further study for enhancement of Home Network Architecture based on ITU-T Rec. J.190 Series • Home Networking as a milestone toward Ubiquitous Networking • Agreed to study mechanism enabling broadcast services to connect with Home Network • Agreed to study Copy Right Protection in Home Networking environment
