Abstract

A system for generating, transmitting, providing and/or receiving signaling.

Claims (36)

1. A method for signaling a user service bundle description fragment, the method comprising:

signaling the user service bundle description fragment represented as an XML document;

wherein:

the user service bundle description fragment includes:

(i) a route component element representing a description about content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the route component element is present,

(ii) a sTSIDUri attribute presenting a reference to a fragment which provides service access related parameters to transport sessions carrying contents, and

(iii) an apdUri attribute providing a reference to an associated procedure description fragment which provides file repair related information for the content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the apdUri attribute is present,

the sTSIDUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element,

the apdUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element, and

in a case that the apdUri attribute is present, at least one alternate content location one element is present in an Extended File Delivery Table element of the fragment pointed by the sTSIDUri attribute.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the user service bundle description fragment is represented as the XML document containing a bundle description MMT root element that conforms to definitions in a XML schema,

a first simple type in the definitions is defined as an address type, and

a second simple type in the definitions is defined as a port type.

3. A method for receiving a user service bundle description fragment, the method comprising:

receiving the user service bundle description fragment represented as an XML document;

wherein:

the user service bundle description fragment includes:

(i) a route component element representing a description about content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the route component element is present,

(ii) a sTSIDUri attribute presenting a reference to a fragment which provides service access related parameters to transport sessions carrying contents, and

(iii) an apdUri attribute providing a reference to an associated procedure description fragment which provides file repair related information for the content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the apdUri attribute is present,

the sTSIDUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element,

the apdUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element, and

in a case that the apdUri attribute is present, at least one alternate content location one element is present in an Extended File Delivery Table element of the fragment pointed by the sTSIDUri attribute.

4. A signaling device for signaling a user service bundle description fragment, the signaling device comprising:

a processor, and

a memory associated with the processor; wherein the processor is configured to perform the following steps:

signaling the user service bundle description fragment represented as an XML document;

wherein:

the user service bundle description fragment includes:

(i) a route component element representing a description about content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the route component element is present,

(ii) a sTSIDUri attribute presenting a reference to a fragment which provides service access related parameters to transport sessions carrying contents, and

(iii) an apdUri attribute providing a reference to an associated procedure description fragment which provides file repair related information for the content components of ATSC 3.0 service in a case that the apdUri attribute is present,

the sTSIDUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element,

the apdUri attribute is a child attribute of the route component element, and

in a case that the apdUri attribute is present, at least one alternate content location one element is present in an Extended File Delivery Table element of the fragment pointed by the sTSIDUri attribute.
