System and method for dynamically switching eMBMS services
A system and method for dynamically switching from a first internet protocol to a second internet protocol for providing service to a user equipment, is disclosed. More particularly, the embodiments may disclose a method for dynamically switching from the first internet protocol to the second internet protocol, comprises steps of: generating a first positive response in an event the service is capable of being provided using the second internet protocol; generating a second positive response in an event the user equipment is capable of receiving the service using the second internet protocol; generating a third positive response in an event a real-time location of the user equipment is within a coverage area; and dynamically switching from the first internet protocol to the second internet protocol based on at least one of the first positive response, the second positive response and the third positive response.
1. A method for dynamically switching from a first internet protocol to a second internet protocol for providing at least one service to at least one user equipment, the method comprising:
receiving a request from the at least one user equipment for availing the at least one service;
providing the at least one service to the at least one user equipment, wherein the at least one service is provided using the first internet protocol;
determining if the at least one service is capable of being provided using the second internet protocol;
generating a first positive response and a first negative response, wherein
the first positive response is generated in an event the at least one service is capable of being provided using the second internet protocol, and
the first negative response is generated in an event the at least one service is incapable of being provided using the second internet protocol;
generating a second positive response and a second negative response, wherein
the second positive response is generated in an event the at least one user equipment is capable of receiving the at least one service using the second internet protocol, and
the second negative response is generated in an event the at least one user equipment is incapable of receiving the at least one service using the second internet protocol;
generating a third positive response and a third negative response, wherein
the third positive response is generated in an event a real-time location of the at least one user equipment is within at least one coverage area, and
the third negative response is generated in an event the real-time location of the at least one user equipment is out of the at least one coverage area; and
dynamically switching from the first internet protocol to the second internet protocol for providing the at least one service to the at least one user equipment based on at least one of the first positive response, the second positive response and the third positive response.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising dynamically switching from the second internet protocol to the first internet protocol for providing the at least one service to the at least one user equipment based on at least one of the first negative response, the second negative response and the third negative response.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one service corresponds to an evolved multimedia broadcast multicast service.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one service includes at least one of a video streaming, a live video streaming, a live audio streaming, virtual reality (VR) streaming, a data streaming and an audio streaming.
5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first internet protocol corresponds to unicast internet protocol.
6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second internet protocol corresponds to broadcast internet protocol.
7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one coverage area belongs to an area providing the second internet protocol.
8. A system for dynamically switching from a first internet protocol to a second internet protocol for providing at least one service to at least one user equipment, the system comprising:
a transceiver configured to receive a request from the at least one user equipment for availing the at least one service;
a service provider module configured to provide the at least one service to the at least one user equipment, wherein the at least one service is provided using the first internet protocol;
a processing unit configured to determine if the at least one service is capable of being provided using the second internet protocol;
a response generator module configured to:
generate a first positive response and a first negative response, wherein
the first positive response is generated in an event the at least one service is capable of being provided using the second internet protocol, and
the first negative response is generated in an event the at least one service is incapable of being provided using the second internet protocol;
generate a second positive response and a second negative response, wherein
the second positive response is generated in an event the at least one user equipment is capable of receiving the at least one service using the second internet protocol, and
the second negative response is generated in an event the at least one user equipment is incapable of receiving the at least one service using the second internet protocol; and
generate a third positive response and a third negative response, wherein
the third positive response is generated in an event a real-time location of the at least one user equipment is within at least one coverage area, and
the third negative response is generated in an event the real-time location of the at least one user equipment is out of the at least one coverage area; and
wherein the processing module further configured to dynamically switch from the first internet protocol to the second internet protocol for providing the at least one service to the at least one user equipment based on at least one of the first positive response, the second positive response and the third positive response.
