20110283287 | METHOD FOR ALLOCATING PRIORITY TO RESOURCE AND METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OPERATING RESOURCE USING THE SAME - Disclosed are a method for allocating priority to resources, and a method and apparatus for operating resources using the same. The method for allocating priority to resources includes: selecting a resource block including at least one unit; determining a priority level of the selected resource block by reflecting a retrieval rate (or recovery rate) including a retrieval frequency and a retrieval period of the selected resource block; and allotting the determined priority level to the selected resource block. | 11-17-2011 |
20130239137 | AUGMENTED BROADCASTING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ADVANCE METADATA PROVISION - Provided is an apparatus and method for providing metadata in advance in order to gain a time required for a receiving terminal to receive augmented content corresponding to the metadata, based on the metadata received over a communication network in a bidirectional digital broadcast. The apparatus may provide a service before a predetermined time for a channel bound service that provides augmented content associated with a broadcast program, or a time-restraint service, such as a quiz program, for which an access to a website may required by a predetermined time. Also, the apparatus may provide metadata of a subsequent program in advance, before a predetermined time when transmitting the broadcast program, whereby a receiving terminal may receive associated information in advance, and a viewer may utilize a website or an augmented content service of a corresponding program, simultaneously with viewing the corresponding program. | 09-12-2013 |
20130239156 | RANDOM BACKOFF APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING AUGMENTED CONTENT - Provided is a random backoff apparatus and method for receiving augmented content that may prevent a delay or a down of a server caused by a plurality of receiving terminals accessing a server simultaneously, when a digital broadcasting system provides broadcast-based bidirectional broadcasting services over a communication network. That is, a technology for distributing receiving terminals accessing a server to receive augmented content, or accessing a home page of a corresponding program, based on metadata transferred from the digital broadcasting system to a broadcasting network. In a bidirectional digital method, a number of requests for access to the home page or the augmented content related to the program may be received from receiving terminals at one time. Accordingly, there is a desire for a method of preventing collision caused when a plurality of stations simultaneously access a single wireless channel. | 09-12-2013 |
20130335448 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING VIDEO CONTENTS SERVICE, AND METHOD OF REPRODUCING VIDEO CONTENTS OF USER TERMINAL - Disclosed is a method of providing a video contents service including calculating conversion information indicating a relation between a projection area and an area corresponding to the projection area in order to project video contents on the area corresponding to the projection area which is a partial area within a prepared image in a user image photographed by a user terminal; and transmitting the calculated conversion information to the user terminal. | 12-19-2013 |
20140007173 | AUDIENCE SELECTION TYPE AUGMENTED BROADCASTING SERVICE PROVIDING APPARATUS AND METHOD | 01-02-2014 |
20140059604 | TERMINAL, SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING AUGMENTED BROADCASTING SERVICE - Provided are a terminal, system and method for providing augmented broadcasting service. The method includes receiving augmented broadcasting service information including information indicating that it is possible to provide augmented broadcasting service, information on an augmented content providing server, and information on an augmented scene description data providing server for presenting augmented content on a television (TV) screen, acquiring augmented scene description data and augmented content selected by a user from the augmented content providing server and the augmented scene description data providing server, and outputting the augmented content to be overlaid on broadcast content according to the augmented scene description data. | 02-27-2014 |
20150116358 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING METADATA IN AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEM - An apparatus for processing metadata includes: a map node defining component configured to define a map node for setting a virtual map; a map overlay node defining component configured to define a map overlay node for setting a layer in which an augmented reality object is to be overlaid on a map set according to the map node; a map marker node defining component configured to define a map marker node for setting a position of the augmented reality object on the map, which is to be overlaid on the layer set according to the map overlay node; a point of interest node defining component configured to set information on a point of interest, which is a position of the augmented reality object on the map; and a controller configured to load the virtual map, the layer, the map marker, and the point of interest. | 04-30-2015 |
20150150064 | CONTEXT MANAGING APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF - A context managing apparatus and method thereof. The context managing apparatus may include a communicator to acquire context information from each broadcast receiving terminal used by at least one user, and a controller to manage the acquired context information as information for providing a receive service for a predetermined broadcast receiving terminal. | 05-28-2015 |
