ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR TRANSMITTING PLURALITY OF MEDIA STREAMS, AND METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18467119 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR TRANSMITTING PLURALITY OF MEDIA STREAMS, AND METHOD THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

An electronic device is described that includes an encoder, a communication module, and a processor. The processor is connected to the encoder and the communication module and is configured to encode media streams from multiple sources and generate frames using the encoder. The frames are then combined into a single packet based on the attributes of the frames from different sources and transmitted to an external device through the communication module.

  • The device includes at least one encoder, a communication module, and a processor.
  • The processor encodes media streams from multiple sources and generates frames using the encoder.
  • The frames are combined into a single packet based on the attributes of the frames from different sources.
  • The integrated packet is transmitted to an external device through the communication module.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Streaming services: The device can be used in streaming services to encode and transmit media streams from multiple sources, providing a seamless viewing experience for users.
  • Video conferencing: The technology can be utilized in video conferencing systems to encode and transmit video streams from different participants, ensuring smooth communication.
  • Surveillance systems: The device can be integrated into surveillance systems to encode and transmit video streams from multiple cameras, enabling efficient monitoring and recording.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient encoding: The device solves the problem of encoding media streams from multiple sources by using a single encoder, reducing the complexity and cost of the system.
  • Seamless transmission: By combining frames into a single packet based on their attributes, the device ensures smooth transmission of media streams, avoiding delays or interruptions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved user experience: The technology provides a seamless viewing or communication experience by encoding and transmitting media streams efficiently.
  • Cost-effective: By using a single encoder, the device reduces the cost and complexity of the system.
  • Efficient resource utilization: The integration of frames into a single packet optimizes the transmission process, utilizing network resources effectively.
