Workshop on IP over DVB


The Project Team will present the development of a new general purpose IP (v4/v6) encapsulation protocol that can work over ISO MPEG-2 transport streams. The new encapsulation method has been verified in an implementation and in an interoperability test. The results were presented to the IETF community and supported the establishment of a working group.

The Final Presentation will begin at 10:00 and continue to 12:30.
Topics to be covered include:

  • Overview of Encapsulation Techniques
  • Introduction to ULE
  • Description of Software Design and Implementation
  • Interoperability Tests Results
  • Advanced Demonstration Results
  • Special Dissemination Activities - IETF, SILK
  • Recommendations and Conclusion based on Project Results

Between 13:30 and 16:30, the workshop will be held and involve discussions on a variety of IP related topics. The list below is only meant as an example to generate open discussions and reveal current needs or issues as well as to provide input to future work.

  • ULE security requirements
  • Requirements for FEC on SNDU level
  • Requirements for ULE extension headers
  • Address resolution IPv4 / IPv6
  • Next steps in IETF IP-DVB WG
  • Applicability of ULE in ETSI BSM

Both the Workshop and Presentation are open to anyone interested in IP Encapsulation Techniques, but those wishing to attend must first contact Frank Zeppenfeldt to reserve a place.
