Abstract:
Methods and systems enable application content for use by an application running on a receiver device to be broadcast by a mobile multimedia broadcast network for energy-efficient reception and use by receiver devices. Information about application content that will be broadcast is broadcast in application metadata messages. Receiver devices may receive such application metadata messages in a broadcast receiver client which passes the information to the application. The application may inform the broadcast receiver client of particular application content or filtering attributes to use in selecting application content to be received. The broadcast receiver client receives the indicated application content at the designated broadcast time and passes the received content to the application for processing. In an embodiment the application is a Mobile Billboard Advertising (MobAd) application, the application metadata includes attributes about ad content and the broadcast application content includes ad content.
Abstract:
Methods and systems enable mobile TV broadcast service providers to allow dynamic pricing for access to broadcast programs. A server within a mobile TV broadcast network may negotiate the price for accessing a broadcast program with individual users via their mobile devices. The server may receive requests to access broadcast programs with price offers from mobile devices. The server may respond to price offers by accepting the price offer or by making a counter offer until a mutually agreeable price is identified. Alternatively, the server may implement any of a number of types of auctions for access rights to broadcast programs. Similar to negotiable dynamic pricing methods, once purchase requests for viewing access to broadcast content programs at current asking prices are accepted, the mobile TV broadcast service provider may transmit the appropriate decryption keys to the users who made accepted offers or bids.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for securely presenting content in a mobile station. The mobile station may have a smart module, a security agent, and an air interface for communicating with a content provider and with a remote content rights manager. The smart module stores content presentation units and has a proxy content rights manager for when the mobile station is unable to receive secure content keys from the remote content rights manager using the air interface. In the method, content presentation units are transferred from the remote rights manager to the smart module for storage. Secure content keys are requested from the smart module for allowing presentation of content requested while the mobile station is unable to communicate with the remote rights manager. The secure content keys are transferred, based on a stored content presentation unit, from the proxy content rights manager to the security agent for allowing content presentation.
