Description

Multicast video advertisement system and method thereof {Method and system for providing multicast advertisement of moving image}

The present invention relates to a multicast video advertisement system and a method thereof, and more particularly, a web server simultaneously serves a plurality of clients in real time to a web page containing a video advertisement on a website, and is viewed by a client. The present invention relates to a multicast video advertisement system and method for allowing a user to click a video advertisement to be connected to a corresponding site.

In general, the purpose of advertising is to stimulate the purchase impulse of consumers by promoting the use and utility value of any product to an unspecified number of people. Such advertising methods are through newspapers and magazines, etc. The method of over-the-air, such as the media, has become mainstream.

However, in recent years, with the development of computer communication, as the advertisement using the Internet, which easily advertises to the entire world by networking a communication network, has increased rapidly, its advertising method and contents have been developed.

The most common advertising on the Internet is the promotion of corporate image and products through the company's own homepage. However, it is necessary for general users to remember their homepage address and access the homepage. There is a lack of trouble to actively motivate the purchase of goods.

On the other hand, the medium of the Internet network has the potential to cause a huge demand market, thereby expanding the advertising that has escaped the existing advertising method.

As such, companies aiming for more effective advertising are paying a lot of money for advertisement through media such as computer communication and internet network, and the effect is also gradually improving, and the internet network is becoming one of the full-fledged public advertising media. .

The characteristics of advertisements through the Internet network include interrelation, one-to-one advertisements, securing distribution channels by advertisements themselves, providing accurate customer information and measuring the effectiveness of the advertisements. Therefore, in the case of advertising using the Internet, there is an advantage that can be related to marketing, easy to customize, can be directly sold, targeted advertising, the customer's response appears immediately.

Advertisement using the internet network with this advantage is proposed as a breakthrough alternative to overcome the limitations of the general mass media, and the advertisement through the Internet is not only a change of the existing paradigm but also a position of the strongest market competition in the future. We believe it will be possible to secure

Types of such Internet advertising include banner type, protruding type and delivery type. The double banner type is a type that can present text or an image using a horizontal or vertical banner-shaped space on some screens of a web page.

As such, banner-type advertisements in the form of advertisements using the Internet have a small and compact size, which are generally familiar, but cannot exhibit size restrictions, animation or sound effects, and simply depend on the corresponding website. There is a disadvantage.

In addition, the existing advertising method is mainly a still banner advertisement, and recently, a simple motion animation motion advertisement such as Java or Flash has appeared, but it is difficult to produce a complete video as an advertisement.

The reason is that the data size of the video is so large that the load on the advertisement providing server becomes so large that it is almost impossible to simultaneously provide a video advertisement to a large number of clients.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, the web server on the web site to simultaneously service a plurality of clients in real time video ads, and when the client clicks on the video ads to watch the site to access An object of the present invention is to provide a multicast video advertisement system and a method thereof.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The virtual network between computers that support multicasting on the Internet is called MBON. With Embon, you can deliver the same data to everyone in a particular group at one Internet address.

1 is a schematic block diagram illustrating a multicast video advertisement system using Embon according to the present invention.

In Fig. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes an internet, which is a network for transmitting and receiving data through communication between computers scattered in remote areas, and reference numerals 20 to 28 refer to a web server 40 which will be described later through this internet 10. Clients A1 to Cn requesting a web service by accessing them, reference numerals 31 to 33 are routers that set a path of data transmitted through the Internet 10 and perform a data switching function.

As shown in FIG. 1, the client A1, the client A2, ..., the client An are physically connected to the router 1 31 through the Internet 10, and the client B1 and the client are connected to the router 2 32. The client Bn is connected to the client Bn, and the client Cn, the client C2, the client Cn are connected to the router 333.

That is, between the client A1 and the client An, which are connected to the router 1 31 having the internet address of the same subnet mask, Embon, which is the above-described internet network, is formed as a single recipient group.

Similarly, an Embon is formed between Client B1, Client B2, and Client Bn connected to Router 2 (32), and an Embon is formed between Client C1, Client C2, and Client Cn connected to Router 3 (33). do.

In this group of clients having the same subnet mask, that is, data transmission is performed in a multicast manner on Embon.

In addition, the routers 31, 32, and 33 convert an Internet Protocol Packet (IP) packet input from the Internet 10 into data of an Ethernet frame and output the data to a client managed by the router. The Ethernet frame is converted into an IP packet and routed to the Internet 10.

Multicast transmission technology can be used in both the data link layer of the second layer and the network layer of the third layer of the Open System Interconnect (OSI) 7 layer proposed by the network standard model, and used to communicate with a group of recipients. There must be a third layer address.

In addition to using a third layer address, there is a method of mapping the address to a second layer multicast address of a physical network. In the case of an IP network, a D class address for multicast addressing is set.

One class D address consists of the upper octet of the first octet '1110' followed by an arbitrary 28-bit group address. When mapping an IP multicast address to an Ethernet address, the lower 23 bits of the class D address are mapped to an Ethernet address block reserved for multicast.

Using the mapping scheme described above, each Ethernet multicast address will match an IP multicast address. This means that a host receiving a multicast can exclude unnecessary multicast packets forwarded to other groups by multicast addresses of the same layer.

Ethernet multicast addresses are easily distinguished from unicast packets on the network interface because the first byte of the destination address is '01'.

In the case of an IP network, the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is used as an IP datagram protocol between the router and the client, and the host becomes a member of the group by sending or participating in an IGMP report to the router.

The routers periodically send queries through the clients connected to them to determine which clients are currently members of the group. When one client wants to remain a group member, the client responds to the query through a report.

In the above process, if the client does not report anything, the router cleans up the group list and excludes the unreported client from the members to minimize unnecessary transmission. If a client wants to leave a connected router, it sends a 'leave' message to the router indicating that the router is no longer part of a multicast group.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 40 denotes a web server that provides a web service to the clients 20 to 28, and reference numeral 50 denotes a window media server that is responsible for providing audio data or an audiovisual image. When reference number 60 is a request for a web service from the clients 20 to 28, the client requesting the web service belongs to, or is located closest to, the client group that is executing the web service including the video advertisement. An AN (AnyNetworker) server that controls the transmission of a message to a web service that includes a video advertisement.

The web server 40 is coupled to the Internet 10 based on TCP / IP, and transmits and receives various data with a plurality of clients via the Internet based on IP packets. Then, for example, an MPEG-4 TS (Transport Stream) packet for a multimedia service is generated based on an IP packet received through the Internet 10, and the generated packet data is transmitted to the Internet 10. .

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 70 denotes a member management database in which information about a client subscribed to the AN server 60 is stored as data.

FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram illustrating the internal configuration of the AN server 60 shown in FIG. 1 in more detail.

In FIG. 2, the AN server 60 may first maintain a client's information in networking with the clients 20 to 28, and monitor a client's status, and the plurality of clients. Network configuration management unit 620, which defines data necessary for networking for transmitting and receiving control messages with the 20 to 28, and various video advertisement data to be provided to the plurality of clients 20 to 28. It is configured to include a video advertisement storage unit (631 ~ 634).

In addition, data procedures 641 to 644 for reading video advertisement data of the video advertisement storage units 631 to 634, respectively, and a connection in charge of providing the read video advertisement data to a corresponding client. A thread (Connection Thread: 651 to 654), a network interface card (660) for executing an interface for connecting to the Internet 10, and a server controller for collectively controlling the above-described functions. 670).

In the configuration of FIG. 2, the video advertisement storage 163 1 stores, for example, video advertisement data relating to sigma engine oil, and the video advertisement storage unit 2 632 stores Samsung digital video advertisement data relating to mobile terminal propagation. In the third part 633, video advertisement data relating to Samsung Securities is stored, and in the video advertisement storage unit n 434, video advertisement data relating to a welcome company is stored in the form of a file.

In addition, the client state management unit 610 is a key number (TCP), TCP sockets, User Datagram Protocol (UDP) sockets, client IP (Internet Protocol) in order to maintain the information of the client while the AN server 60 is networking with the client. ), Data such as NetMask, firewall Internet Protocol (IP), router information, access time, lost packet, bandwidth, TCP transport flag, forward flag, etc. The size of the output screen (Msize, SMsize, UMsize, UUsize, TUsize, TotalSendSize), and the newly added client list, deleted client list, key count, client check, forward data, etc. It is a function to set the matter.

In addition, the network configuration management unit 620 is a data necessary for networking of the AN server 60 as a station name, a server socket, a base window, a list window, an AN server port, a multicast IP, and a multi Define the cast port, status flag, bandwidth, video data size, etc., including the configuration file (ConFiGuration File), station number, composition data (CFG Data), creation station, deletion station, connection station, search parameters, transmission message And so on.

An internal configuration of the client A1 20 is illustrated in FIG. 3, which converts an IP packet applied from the Internet 10 into an Ethernet packet, and delivers it to the controller 206 to be described later to execute an interface. An AN for providing a multimedia service including a video advertisement to a user by receiving an interface card 201 (hereinafter referred to as a NIC) and a control message from the AN server 60 and executing a corresponding process. A workstation 202 and a web browser 203 which is a screen providing and web page providing program for connection with the Internet 10.

In addition, to provide a graphical user interface (GUI) screen which is driven under the control of the AN workstation 202 program and allows a user to select and use a networking or multimedia service based on an output screen on a monitor screen.

It is further provided with a control unit 206 for controlling the operation of the overall device while controlling the output to send to other clients.

Next, the operation of the multicast video advertisement system according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the operation flowcharts shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.

4 is a flowchart illustrating the operation of the web server 40 in the multicast video advertisement system according to the present invention. FIG. 5 is a web service request of the client to the web server 40 and the multicast video advertisement accordingly. A flowchart illustrating the method.

First, in the multicast video advertisement system according to the present invention, the web server 40 provides a multicast web service including a video advertisement to a plurality of clients 20 through 28 through the AN server 60. You will set up your own system.

That is, the AN server 60 drives the network configuration manager 620 to set components necessary for operating the system and to perform information for obtaining information about clients to be connected to, thereby including a video advertisement. The web service is in a waiting state for executing the web service (ST1 step).

While the AN server 60 is running, the server control unit 670 of the AN server 60 checks the client information to be accessed later and the requirements for the currently connected client information through the client state management unit 610. It determines the connection state with respect to (ST3 step).

In addition, the server controller 60 monitors the web broadcasting service network status currently being provided to the clients. The server control unit 60 mainly uses the access IP address, access time, connection status, router status, start time, progress time, error packet loss, and use. By displaying and outputting bandwidth and average bandwidth, the client monitors the real IP, virtual real IP, UDP-Multicast IP, connection status by user, transmission method and reception location by user.

In the present invention, the client A2 21 and the client B2 24 have already received a web service including a video advertisement through the web server 40, and the client A1 20 has the web server 40. This assumes that a web service is requested by attempting a new connection.

On the client side, the client A1 20 who wants to receive the web service depends on the service provided by the client's web browser 203 in order to access the web server 40 through the Internet 10.

That is, the user executes the connection by inputting the Internet address of the web server 40 in the address input window with the information including the client's own IP address and the subnet mask (step ST5).

In the above state, when the server control unit 670 of the web server 40 side receives a web service request from the client A1 20 (step ST7), based on the information of the client A1 20 that has requested the web service. The corresponding routing information is retrieved at step ST9.

That is, the router or client searches for the same subnet mask based on the IP address and subnet mask of the client A1 20 that requested the web broadcasting service.

In step ST7, if there is no connection requesting a web service from any client, the web server 40 continuously repeats step ST3 of checking the connection status of the client.

Following the ninth step, the server controller 670 searches for a client belonging to the same group or a client located nearest to the client based on the search result among clients currently being web services including a video advertisement (ST11). step).

In other words, the client is connected to the same router as the client A1 20 that has requested the web service, or the client is connected to a router adjacent to the router.

As assumed above, if the client A2 21 and the client B2 24 are currently receiving the web service including the video advertisement from the web server 40, the server controller 670 is the client A1. Among the clients 21 and 22 that are in the same client group as (20) and connected to the router 1 31 having the same subnet mask, the client A2 21, which is currently a web broadcasting service, is found.

As a result of the above search, when the client A2 21 connected to the router 1 31 having the same subnet mask as the client A1 20 that requested the web service is found, the server controller 670 determines the searched client A2 ( 21) transmits a control message to the client A1 (20) that requested the web service to provide a web service including a video advertisement (step ST13).

The control message transmitted from the web server 40 to the retrieved client A2 21 includes command data and information on the address, subnet mask, port number, etc. of the client A1 20 to provide the web service. As a result, the client A2 21 receiving this sends the web service data including the video advertisement to the corresponding address, that is, the requested client A1 20.

In order to describe the above-described process in more detail, reference is made to FIG. 6. In FIG. 6, the same parts as in FIG. 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.

First, a case where there is a client currently receiving a web service among other clients connected to a router to which a client requesting a web service including a video advertisement is connected.

As shown in FIG. 6, the web server 40 provides a web service including a video advertisement to the client A2 21 via a router 1 31 (②) through the Internet 10 (①) and the requester. The control message for transmitting the web service including the IP address and the subnet mask address of the client A1 20 is transmitted (③).

Client A2 (21) receiving the information of the client A1 (20) from the web server 40 transmits this information to Router 1 (31) connected to it, and receives Router 1 (31). By setting the corresponding routing path, the web service data including the video advertisement provided from the web server 40 is transmitted from the client A2 21 via the router 1 31 to the client A1 as the destination. Is sent to (20).

The following describes a case in which a client requesting a web service including an advertisement does not currently receive a web service among the clients connected to the same router as the connected router.

In the step ST11, if there is no client connected to the router 1 (31) receiving a web service containing a video advertisement, only client B2 (24) is currently receiving a web service from the web server 40 If it is assumed, the server control unit 670 is a client B2 (24) of the client 23, 24, 25 that is currently connected to the router A (32) nearest to the client A1 (20) is being implemented. Will be found.

In order to explain this process in more detail, FIG. In FIG. 7, the same parts as in FIG. 1 have already been described, and thus will be omitted.

In FIG. 7, the web server 40 provides a web service including a video advertisement to the client B2 24 via the router 10 32 (1) via the Internet 10 (1), and the requestor client A1. A control message for transmitting the IP address, the subnet mask address, and the web service of 20 is transmitted (③).

Subsequently, the client B2 24 receiving the control message from the web server 40 transmits the web service data including the received information to the router 2 32 connected thereto (④).

Accordingly, the router 2 32 sets the transmission path based on the message information received from the client B2 24, and the web service data including the video advertisement is transmitted through the internet 10 according to the set path. (⑤) is forwarded to router 1 (31) (⑥).

Router 1 (31) establishes a path according to the message information received through router 2 (32) and the Internet (10), and client A1 requested by the web service data sent by client B2 (24) according to the set path. It is transmitted to (20) (⑦).

In the above-described web service data transmission, the transmission from the router 2 (32) to the router 1 (31) having different subnet mask addresses is transmitted by the general unicast method. In this case, Peer To Peer multicast is applied. will be.

In the above state, if the client An 22 requests the web service, the web server 40 sends the requester client An 22 of the same group to the client A1 20, which is the web service including the current video. In this case, the control message for providing the web service is transmitted in the same process as described above.

Accordingly, the client A1 20 provides the web broadcast service to the client An 22 through the router 1 31 connected to it in a multicast manner (8).

Meanwhile, the data frame structure transmitted to all the clients 20 to 28 including the client A1 20 that requested the web service from the web server 40 is illustrated in FIG. 8.

This is a basic transmission data frame structure according to the transmission protocol between the web server 40 and the clients 20 to 28, and includes a header part and a payload part which is a data area.

The header portion is composed of 16 bits of command code, 16 bits of packet length, and 16 bits of cyclic redundancy check code (CRC) value. The payload portion is composed of binary data. The CRC value is a typical value that generates an error-detecting code by a division operation.

Referring to an example in which the client A2 21 and the client B2 24 are currently receiving the service described above, the message transmitted from the web server 40 to the client A2 21 in step ST13 is As shown in FIG. 9, an 8-bit command code for "kcAddSendAddr", which is a command code for sending data to another client, is included in the header part, and the payload part includes an IP address of a client to receive the web service data. String data) and a port number (32 bits).

If, in step ST13, the web server 40 sends the web service data including the video advertisement to another client, that is, the client A1 20, to the client A2 21 providing the web service including the video advertisement. To stop the operation, as shown in Fig. 10, 8 bits of "kcRemoveSendAddr" in the command code of the header area, and the IP address (string data) and port number (32 bits) of the client A1 20 in the payload portion thereof. Will be sent to the control message.

When the web service data including the menu and the video advertisement is received to the client A1 20 that requested the web service in the above-described process (step ST15), the control unit 206 of the client A1 20 controls the web browser 203. As shown in FIG. 11, a web page including a menu and a video advertisement is provided along with an introduction of a web page (step ST17).

That is, the controller 160 of the client A1 20 drives the AN workstation 202 and the network manager 204 to switch to a system system for transmitting and receiving a control message with the web server 40.

When the web service data is received from the web server 40, the controller 206 drives the media player 205 to output voice data and video advertisement data among web pages provided. Therefore, the user can watch the video advertisement on the web page in real time.

In addition, the controller 206 of the client A1 20 generates a message including its bandwidth and packet lost information as shown in FIG. 12 to periodically check the AN server of the web server 40. 60) (ST19 step).

That is, command code for sending its own bandwidth and packet loss to the header part of the message, such as 8 bits of "kcHello", and bandwidth (32 bits) and packet loss (32 bits) to the payload part. Will be.

Subsequently, the web server 40 receives this message to determine how much bandwidth the client A1 20 is using.

In addition, the control unit 206 of the client A1 20 transmits its own information as shown in FIG. 13, with 8 bits of "kcMyConnectionInfo" which is a command code for sending its own information to the header portion, and the payout. It will send a message with its IP address (string data) and port number (32 bits) in the load section.

In step ST17, if the AN workstation 202 for transmitting and receiving the control message is not installed in the client A1 20, the AN workstation program is first downloaded from the web server 40 and the client is downloaded. It is to be installed in the A1 (20).

As described above, while the video advertisement of FIG. 11 is provided along with the contents for introducing the menu and the web page, the web service including the video advertisement is executed from the web server 40 to the client An 22, for example. When a control message as shown in FIG. 9 is received (step ST21), the controller 206 generates a control message based on the received information, and connects itself with the router 1 (31) connected with the web service data. Will be sent).

In the router 1 (31) receiving the control message from the client A1 (20), the switching of the data path is established according to the IP address included in the control message, which is transmitted to the newly requested client An (22). The cast transmission is to be made (ST23 step).

As a result, the web server 40 implemented the multicast web service including the video advertisement only to the client A1 20, but the multicast web service including the video advertisement to the client An 22 through the client A1 20. Will be able to be carried out.

In step ST25, when a user who is watching a video advertisement receives a click of the video advertisement, the controller 206 of the client A1 20 controls to be connected to a website of a URL address linked to the video advertisement. (ST27 step).

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and can be variously modified and changed without departing from the technical gist of the present invention.

As described in detail above, the present invention provides a multicast web service including a video advertisement to other clients in the group requesting the web service through a client running a web service including a video advertisement without direct intervention of the web server. Therefore, the transmission load on the web server can be significantly reduced, and the video advertisement can be simultaneously transmitted to a plurality of clients.
