Interactive Multimedia Service System and Method Thereof

An interactive multimedia service system comprising:

• a mobile terminal for creating multimedia contents and encoding said multimedia contents in real time;
• a service provision server for receiving said encoded multimedia contents from said mobile terminal according to a predetermined protocol, and transmitting said multimedia contents synthesized with a broadcast program to said multimedia terminal;
• and
• a broadcasting station server, which, after receiving and decoding said multimedia contents, converts said multimedia contents into broadcasting signals, synthesizes said converted multimedia contents with an on-the-air broadcast program, broadcasts said synthesized broadcast program, and at the same time, re-encodes said synthesized broadcast program in real time according to said protocol to transmit said re-encoded program to said service provision server.

An interactive multimedia service method comprising the steps of:

• (1) a mobile terminal creating multimedia contents and then transmitting said multimedia contents to a broadcasting station server via a service provision server;
• (2) said broadcasting station server receiving said multimedia contents to convert them into format suitable broadcasting signals, and after synthesizing said broadcasting signals with an on-the-air broadcast program to broadcast said synthesized broadcast program to service media, transmitting said synthesized broadcast program to said service provision server;
• and
• (3) said service provision server converting said synthesized broadcast program into multimedia contents suitable for said mobile terminal and then transmitting said converted multimedia to said mobile terminal.
