MBMS Explained (3 hours)Forming part of mpirical’s acclaimed “Explained” series, this 3 hour eSeminar introduces MBMS. This includes a study of the concepts of multicasting in IP networks and the advantages and overheads this brings. This discussion is then expanded to the methods used in mobile networks to support these services. In doing this, multicast and broadcast using GPRS, LTE and WIMAX are outlined in terms of the functional architecture and operation of each. Who Should AttendForming part of mpirical’s acclaimed “Explained” series, this 3 hour eSeminar introduces MBMS. This includes a study of the concepts of multicasting in IP networks and the advantages and overheads this brings. This discussion is then expanded to the methods used in mobile networks to support these services. In doing this, multicast and broadcast using GPRS, LTE and WIMAX are outlined in terms of the functional architecture and operation of each. SynopsisDivided into 3 sections, the topics covered will include: Section 1: Broadcasting and Multicast Technologies (1 hour)This section describes data delivery using broadcast and multicast techniques. In doing this the advantages of these techniques over unicasting are outlined, as well as the associated drawbacks and overheads. The focus of the section is multicasting; as such the main points of discussion centre around IP multicasting and how it is deployed in networks.
Section 2: Multicasting in Mobile Networks (1 hour)Delivering multicast services in mobile networks has been studied for some time. Architecture and operation to deploy such services using GPRS and more recently LTE and WiMAX are now defined. This section provides an overview of the principle elements involved in the multicast network with respect to each of the highlighted technologies.
Section 3: Multicast Delivery End-to-End (1 hour)This final section charts the flow of IP multicast packets across the network from the head end server to the terminal device. In doing this the key stages involved including subscription, service announcements, joining, data delivery and leaving the session are explained.
