In this paper, we design and implement verification and interface application for interactive data broadcasting middleware. This application implements ACAP and OCAP verification item according to their types (format, protocol. resource, presentation). Therefore, using this application, we can verify whether digital settop-boxes used in digital terrestrial television and digital cable television conforms to the ACAP and OCAP standards. In this paper, we evaluate our proposed application using TVPLUSiTM verifier which can verify interactive TV application in real broadcasting environment. Through performance evaluation, we show that the DTB-H650F set-top-box supports OCAP and ACAP standard 80% and 95%, respectively.

Recently, the security requirements of the embedded system which were not considered when the embedded system is independently deployed are being increased because the embedded system is connected to an internet. The connection to the internet of embedded system is the meaning that it is exposed to the various kinds of external attack and can be a victim to these attacks in anytime. Particularly, it is trend that the user-related information is stored into the personal terminals and/or electrical appliances such as PDA, home gateway for home network, settop boxes and so on. So it is needed the security mechanism which protects the user information from the malicious accesses. Accordingly, the coverage of the system security is being expanded from the general server to the embedded system. And it is not enough that the embedded system supports only its inherent functions and it becomes the essential element to provide the security function to the embedded system. This paper applies the RBAC(role-based access control) function to the embedded linux OS and tries to strengthen the security of the embedded linux OS. RBAC is implemented as a loadable kernel module with LSM(Linux Security Module) security framework for user's flexibility.

디지털방송이 시작되면서 고품질의 A/V(비디오/오디오)프로그램과 다양한 멀티미디어 컨텐츠를 제공하는 데이터방송을 처리하기 위한 수신 장치의 비중이 커지고 있다 이와 관련하여 데이터방송 환경에서 새로운 기술과 서비스가 등장할 때마다 이를 수용할 수 있는 소프트웨어를 탑재한 새로운 수신 장치가 필요하다. 일반적으로 한번 가정 내에 보급된 디지털 수신 장치의 소프트웨어 업그레이드가 용이하지 않기 때문에, 방송을 통해 이를 실현한다. 본 논문은 TV 셋탑박스 (STB) 내에 상주하는 middleware native application software 를 방송으로 다운받아 수정하는 기능을 지닌 STB 의 구현에 대해서 기술한다. 소프트웨어 업데이트 시스템은 소프트웨어를 포함하는 데이터 카루셀 스트림을 다운받아 파싱하는 다운로더, 추출된 소프트웨어를 설치하는 업데이트 로더, 그리고 예치상황이 발생하면 셋탑박스가 새로 부팅될 때, 로그 파일을 이용하여 소프트웨어를 옛날 상태의 회복시켜주는 리커버러 (recoverer)로 구성되어 있다. 다운로더는 지상파 디지털 방송 규격인 ATSC 규약에 맞게 구현하고, ATSC용 STB환경에서 테스트하고 있다.

In order to activate the digital broadcasting in Korea, the analog broadcasting will have been closed down until 2012. Recently IPTV(Internet Protocol TV) thorough internet has been regarded as the fourth media following the terrestrial, satellite, and cable for the digital broad casting. And it has been the important medium for the communication and broadcasting system. However IP is not easy to replace the entire broadcasting system with the digital - type broadcasting system. For the digital broadcasting, we should replace all TV sets, install the settop-boxes to receive the various IP media, solve problems about time delaying when changing channels, and support communication and broadcasting consolidation service for such as PVR and Network CCTV. IPMG is the digital converter that is able to solve these problems. In this paper, I'll develop and analyze IPMG converter's performance which sends and receives both the analogue and digital broadcasting signals through various media gives the Network PVR service.

DVB-MHP recommends that NPT(normal play time) be used as the times of stream events. NPT is the local time within an event(TV program). But we found that commercial transport stream (TS) generators and middlewares for DVB-MHP settop boxes are not ready to support the use of NPT by applications. In particular, TS generators do not create NPT reference descriptors needed to reconstruct NPT at the TV receiver. This situation is undesirable because program providers cannot experiment with the idea of synchronized applications. So we have implemented a TS generator that inserts NPT reference descriptors to TS and MyGetNPT API to approximately reconstruct NPT. STC (system time clock) is needed to reconstruct NPT, but Xlets are not allowed to read it. So, we approximate STC by using PCR (program clock reference) and the Java system tune. In this method, the stream generator extrats PCRs from an existing TS and inserts them into null TS packets in the form of MPEG sections, which can be read by Xlets. Because PCRs are displaced into new positions in TS, their values should be adjusted based on the time intervals between the original positions and the new positions. We implemented a synchronized application by using our TS generator and MyGetNPT API, where the task of stream events are to display graphic images. We found that graphic images are displayed where 240 ㎳ from their intended time, where 240ms is a human tolerance for the synchronization skew between graphic image and video.
