9、 Supplement 43 (02/2017) i Supplement 43 to ITU-T Y-series Recommendations ITU-T Y.1900-series Deployment models of N-screen services Summary N-screen services are about enabling a user to view same media content on multiple user devices. The translation and adjustment of content formats is necessar

10、y when the formats used in each user device are different. In order to address the challenge, Supplement 43 to ITU-T Y-series Recommendations describes three kinds of deployment model of N-screen services when user devices use the different protocols, metadata and stream formats. The service require

11、ments are also specified when the deployment model is applied for the support of N-screen services.

13、ted Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommen

14、dations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The app

15、roval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC.

38、becoming more prevalent in a more flexible way, such as anytime, anywhere ITU-T Y.1911. The growth of Internet content (e.g., video) as well as the rapid proliferation of a variety of devices, tend to increase network traffic more and more. Due to viewer demand for personalization and flexibility, a

39、 variety of content types with different formats are accordingly also increasing. In addition, a variety of user devices (e.g., TVs, PCs, tablets, smart phones) and access networks (e.g., fixed broadband, WiFi, 4G, 5G) are driving the widespread consumption of video content. Therefore efficient deli

40、very methods should be devised in order to enable customers to access all types of content on any device and at any time, so called N-screen services. ITU-T Y-Sup.24 also describes a kind of N-screen service scenario. Consumers are today increasingly using multiple devices at the same time. To meet

41、demand, multi-device platforms enable users to enjoy the same content or services seamlessly, irrespective of which device or medium is being used. The N-screen service, which has recently been gaining attention, falls into the broader concept of a multi-device service. The N-screen service is about

42、 enabling the user to use multiple devices, which means that it should be made up of integrated platforms for multi-devices. The core element of the N-screen service is a platform that mediates the use of content or services on multiple devices. The ability to deliver content to multiple screens is

43、rapidly becoming a compulsory requirement for providers of such services as over-the-top content (OTT) and IPTV, as their aim is to meet customer needs for personalization and flexibility to earn revenue through such new business models. In general, a video-streaming service is served in a clientser

44、ver model and in a centralized architecture. It means that a user device in end user side and a media server in network side are tightly coupled as a pair and dependent on each other. Therefore a media server is really allowed to deliver all kinds of content to relevant user devices due to the diffe

45、rence in protocols and formats, especially for the support of N-screen services. The dedicated systems in each difference may lead to duplicated investments in deployment as well as operations. This Supplement aims to address these challenges. In this regard, this Supplement describes deployment mod

46、els of N-screen services. The service requirements are also specified for the support of N-screen services. 7 Deployment models Many types of device with different capabilities (e.g., screen size, resolution) are available on the user side and furthermore different players (e.g., HTTP live streaming

47、 (HLS), HTTP dynamic streaming (HDS) run on them. They are implemented on vendor specific and even standards (e.g., Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG), Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), Open IPTV Forum (OIPF) that are fragmented in terms of protocols, metadata and stream formats. Each us

48、er device can handle a limited set of metadata and stream formats, and it may not properly display media content on the screen if a certain format is not supported. In this regard, three different deployment models possibly occur for the support of N-screen services: 1) coupling each user device wit

49、h a particular media server individually according to media delivery capabilities; 2) consolidating all media delivery capabilities on one server; or 3) converting an unsupported format to a supported format on each user device. 4 Y series Supplement 43 (02/2017) It is assumed that the content source is encoded in ITU-T H.264 codec and carried in a MPEG-TS container to each media server. The silo model means that each device is connected to the respective media
