Communications protocol to transport satellite delivered signals over IP networks

This European Standard describes the SAT>IP communication protocol. It enables a SAT>IP server to forward satellite delivered signals to SAT>IP clients over IP networks. The typical use case would be the transport of television programs that were received from the satellite by the SAT>IP server to the SAT>IP client via the IP network. SAT>IP specifies a control protocol as well as the media transport (Figure 1). SAT>IP is not a device specification. The SAT>IP protocol distinguishes between SAT>IP clients and SAT>IP servers. SAT>IP Clients SAT>IP clients may reside in set-top boxes equipped with an IP interface or may be implemented as software applications running on programmable hardware such as Tablets, PCs, Smartphones, Connected Televisions. SAT>IP Servers SAT>IP servers may take various forms ranging from large MDU headends servicing whole buildings or communities to in-home IP multiswitches to simple IP adapters for a set-top box to, ultimately, IP LNBs. Actual devices may be clients or servers or both depending on their feature set.

Kommmunikationsprotokoll zum Transport von Satellitensignalen über IP-Netze

Protocole de communication pour le transport des signaux transmis par satellite sur les réseaux IP

La présente Norme européenne décrit le protocole de communication SAT>IP qui permet à un serveur SAT>IP de transférer les signaux transmis par satellite aux clients SAT>IP sur les réseaux IP. Le scénario d'utilisation type est le transport de programmes TV par satellite entre un serveur SAT>IP et un client SAT>IP sur un réseau IP. SAT>IP spécifie un protocole de contrôle, ainsi que le transport multimédia (voir Figure 1). SAT>IP n'est pas une spécification de dispositif. Le protocole SAT>IP établit une distinction entre les clients SAT>IP et les serveurs SAT>IP. Clients SAT>IP Les clients SAT>IP peuvent résider dans des boîtiers décodeurs munis d'une interface IP ou peuvent être mis en oeuvre sous forme d'applications logicielles s'exécutant sur des matériels programmables tels que: tablettes, PC, smartphones, téléviseurs connectés. Serveurs SAT>IP Les serveurs SAT>IP peuvent prendre différentes formes: du simple adaptateur IP pour boîtier décodeur aux LNB (Low Noise Block) IP en passant par les dispositifs IP multicommutateurs domestiques et les grandes têtes de réseau MDU (Multi Dwelling Unit) desservant des collectivités ou des bâtiments entiers. Les dispositifs actuels peuvent être des clients et/ou des serveurs, selon leurs fonctionnalités.

Komunikacijski protokol za signale, poslane transportnemu satelitu po IP-omrežjih

Standard EN 50585 opisuje komunikacijski protokol SAT>IP. Strežniku SAT>IP omogoča, da signale, prejete prek satelita, pošlje odjemalcem SAT>IP prek IP-omrežja. Običajni primer uporabe je prenos televizijskih programov, ki jih strežnik SAT>IP prejme prek satelita, do odjemalca SAT>IP prek IP-omrežja. SAT>IP določa nadzorni protokol in prenos medijev. Protokol SAT>IP ne predstavlja specifikacije naprave. Protokol SAT>IP razlikuje med odjemalci SAT>IP in strežniki SAT>IP. Odjemalci SAT>IP Odjemalci SAT>IP lahko delujejo v komunikatorjih, opremljenih z vmesnikom IP, lahko pa so implementirani kot aplikacije programske opreme, ki se izvajajo na programirljivi strojni opremi, kot so tablični računalniki, osebni računalniki, pametni telefoni in povezani televizijski sprejemniki. Strežniki SAT>IP Strežniki SAT>IP so lahko različnih oblik: od velikih glavnih sprejemnih postaj MDU, ki strežejo celotnim stavbam ali skupnostim, do domačih IP-stikal za satelitsko distribucijo in preprostih IP-pretvornikov za komunikatorje ter IP-LNB-jev. Dejanske naprave so lahko glede na njihov nabor funkcij odjemalci, strežniki ali oboje.
