Standardization activities on IPTV in Korea

1. Standardization activities on IPTV in Korea Hae-Won JUNG, Shin-Gak KANG Standards Research Center, ETRI Global Standards Collaboration (GSC) GSC-15

2. Highlight of Current Activities • Setup “Roadmap” on TTA standards development and its Deployment to commercial IPTV services • Establish basic standards for providing Interoperability on Contents and retail Terminal Device • Step 1: Middleware (ACAP-J and Web-base), Sub-titles, iCAS (interchangeable CAS) • Published as TTA Standards, Applying date: Oct. 2010 • Step 2: Service Discovery & Selection(SDS), Provider Selection & Terminal Provisioning, Basic IPTV Terminal Specification • Standards Establishment: Sep. 2010, Applying date: Oct. 2010

3. Highlight of Current Activities • IPTV Regulation to apply new iCAS standards • Due date: 1st November 2010 • iCAS: S/W based downloadable CAS specification • Download and Managing CAS modules in SVM (Secure Virtual Machine) of the IPTV Terminal Device • Established “iCAS Consortium” to develop Reference Implementation • Debate on the postpone of due date for iCAS standard • IPTV Trust Authority for iCAS solution • Considering Certificate System & CP Promotion Issues

4. Strategic Direction • Standards development for providing Contents Interoperability and Terminal Mobility • OSMU (One Source Multi-Use) • Accommodation of Retail Terminal for different SPs • Alignment with Global Standards, especially with ITU-T IPTV Recommendations • Adopt other SDO standards if it is required • Participate in the ITU-T IPTV-GSI and other SDOs

5. Challenges • Needs Public Authentication of iCAS solutions to consume IPTV contents from Hollywood studio, etc. • Lots of remaining issues to accommodate retail market Terminal for different SP’s environments • Needs variety of IPTV Applications • Promote to develop 3rd Party IPTV Applications over Open IPTV Platform • Extends to Open IPTV to consume Internet sourced Contents over IPTV SP’s infrastructure • Competition with Connected TV such as Google TV, etc.

6. Next Steps/Actions • Continue to develop Standards to provide; • Remote Management of IPTV Terminals • Public IPTV services such as Audio Description Service for visually impaired, etc. • IPTV over mobile wireless network environments including WiBro/WiMax and 3GLTE access networks • Public Authentication of iCAS Implementations • Collaboration with Global IPTV Standards of ITU-T and other relevant SDOs

7. Proposed Resolution • TTA supports the reaffirmation of the existing IPTV Resolution contained in GSC-14/06 (Plenary). • Considering the importance of IPTV over mobile wireless network environments, TTA further propose to modify Resolution GSC-14/06 as below: Considering: d) that there are urgent market requirements as well as several new standardization works started in ITU-T on IPTV in mobile mode; Resolves: - encourage relevant standardization work on IPTV over various mobile wireless network environments.
