Abstract
A system and method to provide multimedia services to consumption end devices like set-top boxes and legacy phone and tablet devices that are incompatible to receive the multimedia service directly. These consumption devices interact with devices that provide multimedia service. Further, the present disclosure discloses mechanisms where an end consumption device can connect to a device like LTE connectivity device and obtain eMBMS multimedia services.
Claims13
A method of providing at least one multimedia service to a user equipment, wherein the user equipment (UE) is incompatible to receive said multimedia service, the method comprising steps of:
- discovering by the user equipment (UE), at least one destination identifier (DI) of a service provider module (SPM), wherein
- the user equipment has at least one source identifier (SI) including at least one receiver unique port number (RUPN) for receiving said multimedia service;
- the service provider module (SPM) has the at least one destination identifier (DI) including at least one service unique port number (SUPN) corresponding to said at least one multimedia service, and
- establishing a session initiation protocol (SIP) between the user equipment (UE) and the service provider module (SPM) by binding said at least one destination identifier (DI) with said at least one source identifier (SI);
- listing by the service provider module (SPM) to the user equipment (UE), the at least one service unique port number (SUPN) corresponding to the at least one active multimedia service;
- requesting by the user equipment (UE), receipt of at least one active multimedia service corresponding to the listed at least one service unique port number (SUPN) on the at least one source identifier (SI) of the user equipment (UE);
- and
- providing said requested multimedia service by the service provider module (SPM) to the user equipment (UE) on the at least one source identifier (SI).
A system for providing at least one multimedia service to a user equipment, wherein the user equipment (UE) is incompatible to receive said multimedia service, the system comprises:
- the user equipment (UE) further comprises at least one source identifier (SI) including at least one receiver unique port number (RUPN) for receiving multimedia service;
- and
- a service provider module (SPM) for providing at least one multimedia service to the user equipment (UE), wherein
- the service provider module (SPM) has at least one destination identifier (DI) including at least one service unique port number (SUPN) corresponding to at least one multimedia service;
- wherein a session initiation protocol (SIP) is established between the user equipment and the service provider module (SPM) by binding said at least one destination identifier (DI) with said at least one source identifier (SI) for providing said requested multimedia service to the user equipment (UE).
