Title: Requirements for transmission of IP datagrams over MPEG-2 networks
State: Active
Authors: Gorry Fairhurst
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-06-08
This document describes a new framework for the transport of IP Datagrams
over ISO MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS). The MPEG-2 TS has been widely
accepted not only for providing digital TV services, but also as a
subnetwork technology for building IP networks. Examples of systems using
MPEG-2 include the Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) and Advanced Television
Systems Committee (ATSC) Standards for Digital Television. The document
identifies the need for a set of Internet standards defining the interface
between the MPEG-2 Transport Stream and an IP subnetwork. It suggests a new
encapsulation method for IP datagrams, and proposes protocols to perform
IPv6/IPv4 address resolution, to associate IP packets with the properties
of the Logical Channels provided by an MPEG-2 TS.
