ITU-T Study Group 9(Integrated broadband cable networks and television and sound transmission) Richard Green
Terms of Reference • Use of cable and hybrid networks, primarily designed for television and sound programme delivery to the home, as integrated broadband networks also carry voice or other time critical services, video on demand, interactive services, etc. • Use of telecommunication systems for contribution, primary distribution and secondary distribution of television, sound programmes and similar data services. • Lead SG for: • Integrated broadband cable and television networks
Management Team Chair: Mr. Richard Green (USA) Vice-Chairs: Mr. Charles Sandbank (UK) Mr. Shuichi Matsumoto (Japan) Mr. Yuri D. Shavdiya (Russia) TSB: Mr. Masamichi Niiya
Highlights of achievements (I) 1. IPCablecom, IPCablecom 2 2. Cable Modem 3. Network Transport
Highlights of Achievements (II) 4. Application programming interfaces (API) for interactive TV services over cable networks 5. Conditional Access and Webcasting 6. IPTV framework
Highlights of achievements (III) 7. Next Generation Set-box and Home Networking 8. Quality Assessment 9. Transmission of Large Screen Digital Imagery (LSDI) programmes
Future Work • Refinement and enhancement of IPCablecom and IPCablecom 2 to optimize the architecture for wide-scale deployment • Enhancement of the next generation set-top box to support a new architecture which bundles various service platforms and assures cross-platform and multi-platform • Development of an appropriate platform architecture to provide advanced multimedia services such as tele-medicine, remote-learning, etc along with sound and TV program over IP networks • Application Programming Interfaces (API) for advanced content distribution services and for use in next generation set-top boxes • Development of IPTV related Recommendations aligned with IPTV-GSI effort • Measurement of the QoS and QoE (Experience) for TV transmission on contribution and distribution networks
Conclusion • Study Group 9 in the Study Period of 2005 -2008 was very productive and successful by developing more than 97 new/revised Recommendations • Proposed Questions for the new Study Period will bring about new Recommendations that are strongly required to meet the demand of new services
