Abstract

IPTV is defined as multimedia services, such as TV, video, audio, text, graphics, and data, delivered over IP-based networks managed to support quality of service (QoS), quality of experience, security, interactivity, and reliability. Mobile IPTV extends those services to mobile networks. The authors discuss mobile IPTV standardization´s status, related approaches in the field, and technical challenges to enhancing mobile IPTV services. Given the critical role of QoS in the technology´s widespread adoption, the authors also propose an efficient signaling scheme to support QoS for seamless mobile IPTV services.
