- Abstract
- 5G broadcast brings the promise of an independent or complementary linear TV experience, which can reuse existing terrestrial broadcast infrastructure to serve high definition (HD) or 4K live content to mobile devices, possibly independent of a mobile subscription. To benefit fully from this new capability, the design of a service layer is essential, including service discovery procedures and delivery protocols over IP multicast. This article examines the set of the different standardized service layers brought by the 3GPP, Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC), and Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB), which could target different regions, ecosystems, or regulatory requirements. To support media service providers, a full ecosystem of tools is now emerging, including the Reference Tools from the 5G Media Action Group (5G-MAG) and the GPAC open-source solution. We will introduce the consolidated work from 3GPP and 5G-MAG to make this vision a reality, in terms of standardization and development of reference tools. We will detail how DVB-I services over 5G broadcast can now be experimented with commodity tools and commercial devices. We will also identify the potential synergies with ATSC 3.0 A/3311and the possibilities for Brazil’s TV 3.0 project,2for which Real-time Object delivery over Unidirectional Transport (ROUTE)/dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP (DASH) is the transport layer of choice and 5G broadcast is a candidate for the physical layer.

bio
Christophe Burdinat is the director of technologies and standards at Ateme, France. With more than 15 years of experience in the Mobile Broadcast Industry, from DVB-H/ATSC-MH/ISDBT-MM to LTE-Broadcast and 5G-Broadcast, in his different roles, he drives product development, research and development collaborative projects, and standardization management. He is a regular delegate and contributor at 3GPP, DVB, and SVA. His expertise covers content delivery protocols, mission-critical/public safety services over mobile networks, multicast ABR, DVB-I, 5G broadcast, and OTT service distribution.Thomas Stockhammerbio
Thomas Stockhammer joined Qualcomm, San Diego, CA, in 2014 as the director of technical standards. He has co-authored more than 200 research publications, more than 200 patents, and thousands of standards contributions. He is active with and has leadership and rapporteur positions in 3GPP, DVB, MPEG, IETF, ATSC, CTA, ETSI, the DASH-Industry Forum in multimedia communication, TV-distribution, 5G broadcast, content delivery protocols, immersive media representation, and adaptive streaming. He leads the MPEG-I Scene Description efforts, is the chair of the DASH-IF Technical Working Group, a rapporteur of 3GPP video and XR activities, and the chairman of the DVB over 5G activity. He received several awards for his work on DASH and enTV, namely the INCITS Technical Excellence Award in 2013, the 3GPP Excellence Award in 2017, the CTA Technology & Standards Achievement Award in 2019, and an Emmy Inventor Award in 2022.Romain Bouqueaubio
Romain Bouqueau is the founder, chief executive officer, and a scientific engineer at Motion Spell, France. He received a master’s degree in computer science from the ENSIMAG Engineering School, Grenoble, France. He worked at Allegro DVT, Montbonnot-Saint-Martin, France, from 2006 to 2009. He then joined Telecom ParisTech, Paris, France from 2009 to 2012. In 2012, he joined VideoStitch, Paris, as a chief technology officer (until 2014) and founded Motion Spell/GPAC Licensing to be the industry arm of the GPAC open-source project. He is in charge of dispatching the work, leading the research and development (coauthoring several research articles) and standardization efforts (more than 20 contributions at MPEG), and implementing the open-source GPAC project.Mickaël Rauletbio
Mickaël Raulet is a chief technology officer at Ateme, France, where he drives research and innovation with various collaborative research and development projects. He represents Ateme in several standardization bodies including ATSC, DVB, 3GPP, ISO/IEC, ITU, MPEG, DASH-IF, CMAF-IF, SVA, and UHDForum. He is the author of numerous patents and more than 100 conference papers and journal scientific articles. He received a PhD degree from INSA, Rennes, France, in electronic and signal processing, in collaboration with Mitsubishi Electric ITE, Rennes, France. - Keyword(s)
