Zusammenfassung:Hybrid digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) is a next‐generation mobile TV system that combines broadcasting and wireless communication networks and can provide various high‐quality multimedia services. However, if a system adheres to the current standard of transmitting the DMB content in the form of MPEG2‐TS through wireless networks, it results in a burden on the network due to low transmission efficiency. The reasons for the low transmission efficiency are as follows. First, due to its constant bitrate characteristic, DMB MPEG2‐TS includes a considerable amount of needless information, such as NULL packets and stuffing bytes. Second, due to the inflexibility of the Real‐time Transport Protocol (RTP) standard, one cannot fully utilize the maximum transmission unit of the network when converting MPEG2‐TS to RTP stream for transmission. This paper proposes a new transmission scheme that resolves these problems. Experiment results show that the proposed scheme improves data bitrate transmission efficiency by 8% to 36%, compared to the standard scheme, in the streaming of various real‐DMB contents.
