IP Datacast is a set of technologies optimised for delivering any kind of content to mobile devices over IP, with the help of broadcast networks dimensioned for mobile reception. The main elements of the DVB IP Datacast specifications are: – an Electronic Service Guide, to describe the services available to end devices; – Content Delivery Protocols, to transport any kind of content over a broadcast bearer; – Service Purchase and Protection, to enable over-the-air protection of delivered content and subsequent purchase mechanisms. IP Datacast has been primarily specified to in conjunction with DVB-H bearer technology but it can adapt to any bearer able to deliver IP datagrams.
