Triveni Digital
October 27, 2009
Princeton, NJ -- Triveni Digital announced today that the company's
CTO, Dr. Rich Chernock, will be presenting two papers at the SMPTE
2009 Annual Tech Conference & Expo. Speaking as part of a SMPTE
session on mobile video architectures and services, Chernock will
present a paper titled "Dealing With IP for Mobile in an MPEG
World," examining how IP transport is being used in ATSC Mobile DTV
to enable both streaming services and delivery of file-based
content. Additionally, as part of the SMPTE session on station
monitoring and control in the digital world, Chernock also will
present "Broadcast Service Quality Monitoring Strategies," providing
attendees with an overview of practical new design and operational
considerations necessary for improving efficiency and maintaining
station quality. |

"Ensuring broadcast quality is
critical to a profitable media business, regardless of the platform
used to distribute program content," said Chernock. "An
understanding of current industry standards and their impact on
service delivery is valuable in achieving and maintaining high
quality standards. Through these SMPTE presentations, I will address
key concerns in maintaining this quality across different types of
DTV delivery."
Since ATSC Mobile DTV standard relies on IP transport, Chernock will
explore the IP-based model, its component elements, the mechanisms
adopted to achieve "broadcast quality," and considerations for
accommodating the differences in component interconnections. Because
conventional DTV broadcasts must comply with complex ATSC and MPEG
standards if they are to be viewable and of value to the
broadcaster, Chernock will examine the challenges inherent in
monitoring these signals and identify proactive strategies for
guaranteeing the consistency and quality of these broadcasts.
Chernock is active in many of the
ATSC and SCTE standards committees, particularly in the areas of
metadata, monitoring, and data broadcast. Within ATSC he chairs a
number of ad hoc committees whose work relates to metadata and
transport issues. He is vice-chair of the Technology & Standards
Group (TSG) and chairs the Non-Real-Time Services and
Mobile/Handheld management layer activities within ATSC. He also is
a participant in the SCTE HMS activity.
The SMPTE Annual Tech Conference & Expo is the premier annual event

thought-leaders from the media content business and serves as an
industry-leading education and information resource to professionals

The SMPTE Annual Tech Conference & Expo will be held at the
Renaissance Hollywood Hotel, Oct. 27-29, 2009. Chernock will present
