Abstract

This article describes the IPTV system, as well as its implementation methods and related protocols. The concept of IPTV includes both real-time television and recording television, the so-called VoD. In real time, streaming data is sent using only the RTP protocol and in addition to it, the RTSP protocol is used for streaming VoD. In addition, methods for measuring QoS parameters are analyzed, considering practical applications for estimating IPTV traffic parameters. An important feature of providing quality IPTV services is a high level of quality of service. Also, in theory, an Internet connection model with insufficient network bandwidth is considered. The following characteristics are taken into account: bandwidth, one-way delay, inter-packet jitter, the number of lost packets, the number of duplicated packets, packets with errors, and damaged packets. A reordering issue is mentioned. In addition, two important QoS parameters for VoD are measured: START delay and PAUSE / RESUME delays. Service messaging is considered while providing IPTV service. The maximum, average, and minimum values for the network quality of service parameters are found.
