Please forgive the cross-posting. If you have already recieved this via the ip-dvb mailing list, I am sorry. Gorry Fairhurst - --- A BOF will be held in Vienna on the subject of building standards for IP networks using MPEG-2 Transport Stream transmission. This is intended to cover issues common to implementors/operators wishing to build efficient IP transmission networks using DVB, ATSC, etc. Satellite systems are currently a major user of this technology. Despite the word "DVB" in the BOF title, I would especially encourage input and comments from those using MPEG-2 beyond DVB, such as ATSC, DAB, etc. A description of the BOF follows: For the current (as yet provisional scheduling see): http://www.ietf.org/meetings/ IP over MPEG-2/DVB Transport ============================ BoF Description - --------------- The MPEG-2 Transport Stream provides a transmission network that has become widely use to support digital TV broadcast, including: DVB, DAB, ATSC, ISDB-T. These and related standards define a set of commercially available components that are increasingly being used to provide a general-purpose packet transmission network. MPEG-2 Transport networks are being used to build IP networks to supplement broadcast TV/audio services and also to provide one-way and two-way IP-only subnetworks. The BOF will explore how the IETF might work to define documents that describe the protocols required to build a complete IPv4/IPv6 unicast/multicast service, and the mappings that are needed to perform address resolution, etc. A set of Internet Drafts will be reviewed describing requirements, and some proposed protocols.
