WhaT Is IPTV?

The cooperation between Interoud and Blusens, as software and hardware developers, has resulted in the birth of a true NEXTGEN IPTV system that is able to fulfil every requirement the Operator may need. From standard TV channels distribution, to HDTV, Video-on-Demand, Time-shift, personalized advertisement schemes and sponsorships, direct purchase from the TV, Digital Signage and more.

IPTV Standard Platform

The development of new technologies over IP Networks continues to contribute to the integration of a variety of services. These expand from the basic Ethernet network for computer interconnection, to DSL lines for internet access, IP telephony or the most advanced automation and control systems. The advantage of a standard communication technology over a single network allows the simplification of the cabling network, enables the integration of varied services, which guarantees the compatibility with future technological developments, and facilitates the monitoring, security and control of any installation. Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is one of the services that now can also integrate with the structured cable network of a building. Such revolutionary change in the way TV signal is distributed significantly improves the signal quality, interactivity and control, giving the operators a plethora of options to monitor, add services, maximize audience and improve the return on the investment.

Such solutions play a very important role in the hospitality sector as they provide the tools to increase the comfort level of their guests/patients, as well as the overall revenue. With this IPTV system, the hotel can offer enhanced entertainment services at a Premium, increase the availability of other hotel services (Room Service, Laundry, Restaurant Reservations, Spa, Sports activities, Gift Shops, etc.) while getting valuable data as to what their guests are watching, what channels are popular, what content type gets the most income, what hotel services have more demand, etc. Thus, IPTV by Blusens provides a true added-value tool to the operator that will, unobtrusively and reliably, increase the revenue on a system that otherwise only represents an added cost.

WhaT can IPTV do for you?

CABLE TV OPERATORS IPTV by Blusens full-fledged solution enhances the services the operator can provide as it is fully interactive in every possible way. Direct TV purchase becomes a true reality for varied forms of products and services. Also, it allows the creation of Portals for different On-Demand content, Pay-per-View, and Live events. Our system enhances the data gathering of user consumption, enabling the use of complex statistics that will serve as a tool for continuous improvement and detection of overlooked niche markets. HOTELS, RESORTS, COMPOUNDS, RESTAURANTS The complete solution offers a centralized point to control and monitor the guest’s consumption and usage of the entertainment system, providing useful statistics that can be used to tailor make the packages offered based on their origin, age group, income, occupation, etc. The On-Demand content and some LiveTV channels can be offered in various languages and with captions to provide the closest sensation to a Home Cinema that a hotel can offer, while giving the Operator a variety of tools to insert various types of advertising formulas. All fully linked to the central Building Management System. Billing is, thus, seamlessly integrated.

HOSPITALS Added to the general Hospitality functionality, IPTV can record, and make available to the user network, any workshop, lecture, seminar or procedure carried out in the facility, thus enhancing the practise and resources available to the Hospital. The offer to the patient can even include the meal selection from his physician’s approved menu. CORPORATE OR GOVERNMENT NETWORKS The integration of the video streams in an existing IP infrastructure makes possible the reception of any content on any facility, even on mobile devices. With an IPTV platform all the multimedia content generated in courses, seminars or master lectures can be recorded and redistributed live during the event or later, to feed STB, PCs inside the complex, Digital Signage panels or via an internet web portal. EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES Using the Corporate services as a base, an education institution may be interested in adding notes to the video or a real time messaging feature to allow the users watching a live event like a surgery to share opinions and comments with other users.

1. The VoDKAST Middleware server creates the STB menus by accessing the metadata information of the videos from the VoD cluster (movie name, actors, director, etc.) and the EPG information from the live and playout channels while considering the user access rights and credit information obtained from the PMS. Thus, the menu is customized for each guest. 2. The hotel operator can fine tune the platform through the management console. The Middleware Server also monitors the current state of each part of the system and triggers the proper alerts to the management consoles in case of any problem. 3. The VoD Streaming Cluster stores all the videos in its storage nodes and streams it to the network through the streaming nodes. The platform allows an unlimited number of streamer and storage nodes to increase the storage or streaming capacity independently from each other according to the operator needs. 4. The IP Contribution System obtains the live DVB-S, DVB-C and DVB-T MPEG-2 streams from satellite, cable or terrestrial feeds and injects them into the IP network as IP multicast streams. 5. The Playout Server generates continuous loop streams of stored contents as IP multicast streams. 6. The NetPVR server stores local recordings of live TV channels to provide time-shifting features to the platform. 7. The Digital Signage server controls the digital signage screens and split its layout in several regions that can be filled with any multimedia content, even Adobe Flash. 8. The Ethernet Switches aggregate the outputs of all the servers and carry the video streams to the screens through the IP network. 9. The integrated solution allows several types of STB and screens working together: Standalone STB screen, Standard PCs screens and Low or High Connectivity Digital signage screen. Any IPTV content (live, playout, VoD, etc.) can be displayed in any of the STB types.

2000 User clUstered mIddleware node The middleware server is the core of the Blusens IPTV solution. It controls the interaction between each part of the system and the interaction of the system itself with the rest of the hotel services. It is also the entry point for the hotel operator, where he can check the status of the network, the connected STB, trigger alerts to pop up in one or a group of STB etc.

This node is aimed to provide a solution for larger deployments such as cable operators, universities, etc. Due to its clustering approach this nodes allow unlimited growing capacity via clustering. This servers are capable of working together to provide one middleware controlling an unlimited number of users. With its cluster approach, a system created with this nodes can integrate spare servers that are automatically hot swapped when an anomaly occurs without service interruption.

VoDKAST will generate menu screens for browsing all the media library in an integrated way. The interface is coherent among all the applications of the system (i.e. TV, VoD, NetPVR, services). It’s also able of providing screens with local information of the hotel and surroundings. This information screens are very simple to create and edit via collection of templates that the operator can modify online through the management interface. All the modules of this middleware are multilingual and can support any language with any font, for example, Arabic.

The price ruling system is very flexible, allowing the hotel to provide different prices according to categories like movie genre, director, length, etc. The system provides a price simulator to check the price charged for the movie to the guest for a particular situation.

The administrator is capable of monitoring what is being played in any room at each STB for any given moment. It’s also capable of rebooting a group or a single STB or even forcing it to tune a specific channel or content and locking the IR control of the STB.

The administrator can check the current billing for any given STB or room at any moment.

The logging system is continuously monitoring the status of the system an can provide alerts when a STB is disconnected from the network or a live TV channel is not receiving content. This prevents any unauthorized access to the distribution network. The middleware is also capable of gathering use statistics for both VoD and live contents.

The price of the media contents are determined by a very flexible price rule mechanism. This provides the operator the flexibility of grouping some channels into one pack and price it. The price rules are also defined according to a calendar, so creating an “action weekend offer“ is very simple.

sofTWare lIcenses pms IntegratIon The system can be integrated with the PMS that is part of the IT infrastructure of the hotel. This way the hospitality system is able to generate per-user contents with the information acquired from the PMS. This service will be used for automatic charging the costs of the film rental or whatever pay service that the hotel must decide to implement on the billing of the customer. If the connection with the PMS system is not available for whatever reason, VoDKAST includes a minimal PMS for this purpose. The system also includes applications for viewing the billing of the user from the comfort of the room.

The system supports any language in every part of the system: The interface in the STB, the management interface, and even the names of the tags can be internationalized. This way the system recognizes that the “Action movies” will we shown as “Peliculas de accion” for an Spanish speaker.

User Interface modIfIcatIon It’s possible to select an specific welcome TV channel according to the nationality of the guest. If the nationality is not registered in the system the welcome channel will be the default one. It’s also possible to run a specific advertisement as welcome video in the mother language of the guest.

The graphical interface of the IPTV system for the rooms can be completely customized to the needs of the customer. Custom logos, colors and even menu elements can be integrated in the user interface to provide a coherent, tailor made visual language with the rest of the systems in the hotel, hospital, university, etc.

deVelopment of specIfIc applIcatIon As the system proposed is a 100% end2end solution, any added value application designed specifically to fit the customer needs can be integrated in the menus of the STB. The flexibility is almost unlimited. Contact with a sales manager to evaluate the viability of a custom development for your needs.

The edition of the local information pages is very easily done via the web interface. The administrator does not need any programming or web developing knowledge to create high quality local information pages.

Vod streamIng clUster

The VoD cluster is the group of servers responsible of storing and streaming the ondemand contents to each STB managed by the middleware. The cluster can be divided into several storage and caching levels with one or more specific node at each level. The most common approach is to have one or two levels with one node each.

Up to 2 tb storage node

In the first level, the storage nodes store and replicate the multimedia content library. At the second and further levels, the streaming nodes act as both streamers and caching nodes, providing the capacity to answer the queries from the STB faster than from the first level. When a STB asks for a movie to a streamer, the streamer checks if the movie is stored locally in its own memory. If the content is available locally, the streaming starts immediately, otherwise, the streamer asks the storage to stream the content to itself. The content is then served through the streamer to the STB. At the same time, the content is split in two and cached locally in the streamer to speed up the subsequent accesses from other users to the same movie.

Up to 2 tb storage node

•  Up to 2 TB storage node. •  Capable of storing up to 450 hours of SD video or 180 hours of HD video. •  RAID 1 mirroring to ensure data redundancy. •  Gigabit Ethernet output. •  Optional 10 Gigabit Ethernet output. •  1 Disk Maximum fail tolerance.

This clustering approach means that the storing and streaming requirements can grow independently from each other making it possible to adapt the system to any installation size.

The contribution head-end, part of the Blusens blu:core line, is the part of the system in charge of obtaining live content from any source and perform the appropriate operations to transform this feeds into multicast IP streams capable of being transferred through the IP network. Once these streams are in IP format, the middleware is the responsible of granting or revoking the access of each STB to them.

•  Up to 45 ASI or 28 DVB-S/S2, DVB-T, DVB-C Inputs. •  Up to 14 DVB common interface slots for DVB descrambling.

According to the source of the live video the contribution can be digital or analog. In the first case the feeds will come from satellite (DVB-S) terrestrial (DVB-T) or cable (DVB-C) broadcasts. On the other hand, for the analog contribution, the input will be composite or s-video, both in PAL or NTSC formats.

Provides support for remultiplexing output streams in the headend. It is required to provide EPG services to the middleware.

As the content distributed in DVB-S/T/C is already an MPEG2-TS stream, the operation performed by the digital contribution is remove the QPSK, QAM or any other transport layer and substitute it by IP. That's why the digital video stream is not modified in any moment and the broadcast quality is maintained during the whole distribution of the channel through the IP network. For the analog contribution option, the first step is encoding the original analog source into MPEG-2 digital format. Once this step is done, the stream behaves exactly the same as a digital stream being transferred through the network.

dIgITal conTrIBuTIon The digital contribution IP Streamer offers a complete professional video head-end solution. It is built around a modular platform, that brings the capability of hosting as many tuning modules as required. This way, the scalability of the platform is assured by providing a higher density, lower cost and better reliability system due to its integrated architecture. The IP Streamers can receive MPEG-2 transport streams from a variety of input sources (ASI, DVB-S/S2, DVB-T, IP and DVB-C, with QPSK, 8PSK, COFDM or QAM modulations) and can descramble and re-scramble selected services, before streaming it via IP or ASI. All the elements of the system are continuously monitored, including decoding CAM modules via a web-based Management Interface, which enables remote configuration of all modules,real time status of their performance, and presentation of service related information. The streamer supports full analysis of PSI/SI (PSIP in later release) and regenerates all tables as required.

WhaT Is dIgITal sIgnage? It is a new and cost effective way of increasing brand or product visibility in public areas. Using IP technology we can create advertising channels that provide wanted information and, thus, attract an attention that static advertising may not. Furthermore, the marketing campaign can be much more defined and focused, issuing the message to the appropriate market profile, at the right location and time, and creating a far more indelible impression.

WhaT can dIgITal sIgnage do for you? Pulsar Digital signage solution allows you to create a multimedia advertising solution for providing content to hundreds of screens simultaneously. It also allows you to manage and monitor on real time what is being broadcast on each screen. The playout solution is the simplest digital signage platform and allows you to feed the signage screens with a full screen sequence of videos, but, if you want more flexibility for, for example showing more than one video at once, Pulsar Digital Signage platform is your answer. The Pulsar video distribution is supported by the most advanced IPTV technologies providing a high connectivity solution in which the video streams are transferred through the network as multicast IP streams low connectivity solution in which the multimedia contents are distributed and then stored locally in each screen, so a problem in the network won’t affect to the video shown in the screens.

The extensive experience and knowledge of the Pulsar product team, in both large installation and VoD management, makes it the right tool to face any challenges related to security, user experience, immediacy and management of remote locations. Pulsar is a complete product that enables the operator to have full control, from a central location, of the full system, including screen layouts, content, program grill, etc. SHOPPING MALLS, SHOWROOMS, RETAIL SHOPS By melting the powerful advertisement capabilities of the Digital Signage solution and the flexibility of content distribution through an IPTV platform, a commercial surface of any size can deploy from one to hundreds of advertising screens in all its branches reaching more customers and having full control from the headquarters.

STEP 1 Select the resolution of the output screen, Pulsar can work with SD, HD, 16:9, 4:3, etc. Any resolution is supported. Divide the output screen space into any number of regions and select the size for each region with the drag and drop interface It’s even possible to overlap the regions if desired.

STEP 2 Upload the multimedia content to the server. Any content is supported MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DIVX, h.264, Adobe Flash animations and video, JPEG, TIFF, etc. It’s also possible to associate an external information source to any resource. This way you can deploy a flash animation with weather information, and the information to fill the template will be gathered form Internet.

With the playout server, the administrator can generate continuous loops of full screen pre-scheduled contents and inject it in the network as multicast streams. This is the easiest and simplest way of creating Digital Signage information channels. These streams are created in MPEG-2 TS format and the original contents must be MPEG-2 video as well. The platform supports both standard and high definition streaming and can schedule even stored and live TV contents under a common schedule.

Optionally, VoDKAST Playout can perform seamless splicing for MPEG-2 content, thus generating a continuous, clean stream out of multiple input sources and switches. Seamless splicing is a technology which calculates on real time the intermediate video frames during the transition between two videos in a sequence. This means when switching from one video to following, the resulting stream won’t be affected by MPEG-2 video noise providing a clean, smooth transition.

sIgnage serVer With Pulsar Digital Signage server the administrator can manage the whole Digital Signage platform. It controls the channel generators, composes schedules of screen templates and manages the resources used to fill these templates. It’s also responsible of uploading the resources to the channel generators in a completely bandwidth controlled way. Finally, the server will monitor on real time what is being broadcast in each screen with the local time in the screen location, triggering the proper SNMP alerts in case of any incidence.

Playout Server Architecture By using the advanced scheduling functions the administrator can compose multicast TV channels interspersing Live TV streaming from the satellite or a CCTV camera with local stored advertisements, each 10 minutes for example. As the stream created shows only one video at once, a channel generator is not required, but high bandwidth network is a must. Any problem in the network connection will be reflected in the video on the screens.

Pulsar Digital Signage server can generate any screen composition by dividing the screen into a template with smaller regions. Each region can have any loop of contents in almost any media format and the layout of the template can change accordingly to the time schedule.

DS.100

A web server gives access to the platform in a hierarchical way, allowing the Digital Signage contractor to resell time slots for specific regions of certain screens to third parties making it possible to get direct revenue from this platform.

It’s possible to link specific contents to a external information system, like weather RSS feeds or queue ticketing systems. The server will get the information from the external sources periodically and will upload the updated info to each screen. In case the internet connection with the server is lost, the signage screens will work with the latest available information avoiding empty spaces in the screens’ templates, for both low and high connectivity channel generators.

channel generators

The Channel Generators are the devices responsible of composing the final video stream by filling the template defined at the Pulsar Signage Server with the media contents in a single video stream. Depending on the reliability of the network the streams can be generated at the head-end level with high connectivity channel generators. The low connectivity solution is best suited to deployments where the permanent connection with the screens can not be 100% assured. In this situations, the STB connected to the screen must have local storage space to ensure 24x7 signage generation even during a network outing.

hIgh connecTIVITy The channel generator can be deployed at the head-end level, and its output can be transferred through a trusted network.

WhaT´s facIal recognITIon?

The Blusens Facial Recognition system allows the manager of a public crowded place to gather information about the people visiting such venue in real time. Shopping malls, Hospitals, Bank branches, Airports, etc. are places suitable for this kind of systems. The system consists in a series of small cameras strategically deployed on specific places, such as adverstisement or ailes, where the crowd is expected to walk or to stop and pay attention to the advertisement shown. The system is capable of detecting the face of each person in range and identify the gender and the age, so the administrator can gather statistics about the kind of people at the venue at any given moment. The Facial Recognition system can even calculate the number of seconds each person spends in front of the camera and determine for how long the person was looking to the camera directly during this period. By using this mechanism the property owner can discover what is the age and gender distribution on a specific moment of the day as well as if the latest changes in decoration or advertising are increasing the attention spans of the visitors. All the information gathered via different cameras is integrated into one single server to create statistics defined specifically to fit the necessities of every authorized user of the platform. The access to this statistics and reports can be done from any device (tablets, phones, computers, etc.)

THE 4 FACTORS 1. Gender analisis: difference between men&women 2. Attendance and Attention. Attitude in front of the camera: Identifies who is looking at the screen or just standing in front of it 3. Age group: And gives you the possibility to personalize real-time advertisement depending on the age and gender 4. Traffic Monitoring: Relates people and time as we can know how many people stops in every point per hour.

glossary of measuremenTs ADJACENT CHANNEL REJECTION (dB): The difference between the minimum gain in the channel and the maximum gain (minimum attenuation) in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel in UHF is C±2 and in VHF is C±1). AGC RANGE (dB): The difference between the maximum and minimum signal that is necessary for a system with AGC to keep a constant output. BAND REJECTION (dB): The difference between the minimum gain in the amplified band and the maximum attenuation in the rejected band.

FLATNESS (dB): The difference between the maximum and minimum gain in a certain band or channel.

NOISE FIGURE: The ratio of the actual noise power generated at the output of an amplifier to that which would be generated in an ideal resistor. The lower the noise figure, the better the performance. The noise figure is expressed in (dB): NF=10 log F.

FREQUENCY RESPONSE: The variation in amplitude within a certain band or channel.

REJECTION BETWEEN INPUTS/ OUTPUTS (dB): The band attenuation between inputs/outputs.

GAIN (dB): This is the difference between the output power of an amplifier with the characteristic impedance (75 Ω) and the input power.  MAXIMUM OUTPUT LEVEL (dBμV)

SPURIOUS (dBc): The difference in levels between the channel carrier created by a modulator or conversor and the lower side band or local oscillator. This only applies when there is a broadband channel.

THROUGH LOSSES (dB): The attenuation that is undergone by signal in a specific band between the input and output of a device. BER (Bit Error Ratio): Measurement of signal quality after demodulation. It simply indicates what proportion of the received binary digits (bits) are incorrect – 0 received as 1 or viceversa. BER is ultimately the best measure of digital signal quality since it tells us directly whether a picture can be displayed. In practice, when investigating reception problems, a CSI display is often more useful and MER measurements may be more appropriate, with a direct indication in dB of the ability of a receiver to decode the signal. A satisfactory result in a Digital installation such as DTT or Satellite would be
