Abstract: As the television industry transitions from traditional broadcast to internet-based delivery, there is a desire to match the traditional DTT experience using adaptive streaming over HTTP. The high inherent latency of current protocols results in a worse customer experience at live events such as sports. This paper presents a scalable, open-standards-based architecture designed to deliver ultra-low latency live video over standard HTTP using a combination of technologies such as the DASH-IF Live Ingest protocol, the low-latency low-delay MPEG DASH (L3D-DASH), server-guided ad insertion (SGAI) for scalable ad insertion, and the upcoming CMCDv2 standard for interoperable telemetry.
