ITU IPTV Standardization Activities
ITU-T’s Work on IPTV
ITU-T has been spearheading the standardization in IPTVFocus Group on IPTV (2006-2007)
Responding to market demands for standardFirst set of draft on Architecture, QoS, Security, End-Systems and Multimedia Application
IPTV Global Standardization Initiative (GSI) (2008-)Building on the work of Focus Group, Coordinating all ITU-T’s IPTV related activitiesComprising Recommendations approved by 6 Study Groups, (SGs 9,11, 12,13,16,17)Every two to three months

IPTV and New Generation NW
IPTV is part of the new wave, and one of the most highly visible services to emerge as part of work on the next generation network .It can be seen as both the business case and principal driver for accelerating deployment of NGN. IPTV subscriptions around the world will reach 48.8 million this year (Gartner).

Need for Global Standard
Standardized IPTV would mean
Lower costWider MarketBetter Quality of Service and ExperienceMore consorted securityOpen infrastructureInnovation and new services
Standardized HTML gave us Web; Standardized IPTV will give a new Internet
Standard IPTV Service
Deployment of ITU-T compliant products will enable service providers to offer value added services like traditional (linear) TV, video on demand (VoD) and interactive TV over IP-based managed networks such as NGN.
5
ITU-T IPTV Standards will
Facilitate a market where service providers, whether traditional broadcasters, ISPs or telecoms service providers, control over their platforms and their offerings. Encourage innovation, help mask the complexity of services, guarantee QoS, ensure interoperability and ultimately help players remain competitive.

IPTV at ITU
Defined as “multimedia services, such as Television; Video; Audio; Text; Graphics; Data, delivered over IP based networks managed to provide the required level of QoS/QoE, security, interactivity and reliability”.3 Models of IPTV Architecture are defined (Y.1910)
Non-NGN IPTVNGN without IMS IPTVNGN with IMS IPTV
