Network Multicasting and Broadcasting

May 26th, 2011

NICs are usually programmed to listen to three types of messages. Those are the messages sent to their specified address, messages broadcast to all NICs and multicast messages that can be used as for a particular card. There are three types of addressing:

1. Unicast – A transmission to a single interface card.
2. Multicast – A transmission in the network interface card.
3. Broadcast – A transmission to all interface cards in the network. RFC 919 and 922 describe IP broadcast datagrams.
* Limited Broadcast – Send to all NICs on each network segment as the source NIC. He has represented 255 255 255 255 TCP / IP address. The event was not broadcast by the router, only appeared on the network segment.
* Live streaming – for all hosts on the network. Router can be configured to forward broadcasts directed to the main network. For network 192.168.0.0, broadcast 192 168 255 255.

The Next Era of Broadcasting System

May 26th, 2011

All over the world today are linked by different technologies, changes in communication between the community and thus on the question of our ideas about national identity. “This is the fact that we can record TV programs seen in remote regions of the world, listening to foreign radio stations occupied, reading foreign newspapers, publications and books, and on that day, access to many sites that we want the world of satellite communications and broadcasting system based on the home server is the next generation of radio with the PDR (Personal Video Recorder), a decoder with a high storage capacity and is now the norm. It is assumed that the content is transmitted are stored in the receiver, and demanded that the traditional television can also be accepted. So DRM is proposed to construct adding a new key to the DRM standard.

These new key called “content key (Kc) and is used to encrypt the session if the content is stored in the RDP. Kc is unique to each. But in reality, Kc is clearly for each object. It depends on the diffuser . DTH networks, including broadcast center, one or more high-power satellite and DTH receivers. Broadcast Center, a network hub, is a complex of studios, production / reproduction with satellite transmission technology, customer management / access control, access network and systems management in interactive services and data. Analog or digital video programmers contributions received via satellite, fiber optic, microwave or terrestrial links. Audio-Video (AV), but also by the programmer tape library or CD / DAT available. In the case of data or Internet services to connect to the server that is used by a connection via cable or satellite.

Picture Quality and Sinyal Strenght of TV

May 15th, 2011

# Distance to the station: travel, the higher the signal has the lowest (off), it is the result of image and sound quality is reduced. Because UHF signals weaken earlier and can travel less distance, they are hard to get, compared to FM signals. Video and Audio – TV signals are composed of two carriers. The video (image part) fades faster than sound, which is why sometimes in a position to sound but no picture explains are received.

# The terrain between your location and the issuer: For example, the sender is at high altitude (high tower on a hill) and your house is located in a low valley – the TV signals over-pass “on your location, by the antenna away. In contrast to AM radio signals that follow the curvature of the earth, the TV signals travel in a straight line – “a tangent” on Earth, is the TV reception on the “Line of Sight” is based on the sender to the satellite TV receiver.
