Marco de referencia técnico para el despliegue del servicio de IPTV sobre redes móviles LTE (Long Term Evolution) con calidad de servicio (QoS)

The IPTV service deployment requires that network provide resources and mechanisms to ensure the quality of content delivered to users. The technical characteristics of the technologies LTE/LTE-A make them ideal for IPTV service deployment because they are All-IP network architectures, have the ability to provide high speed access, improve efficiency, reduce latency and provide end-to-end QoS demanded by the IPTV service. Therefore the purpose of this thesis is focused on generating a technical framework to guide the deployment of IPTV service in LTE networks with quality of service. For this propose, in this work we identify key performance parameters at the network level must be guaranteed by LTE networks for the delivery of IPTV services with QoS. Then we propose a functional architecture for service implementation IPTV over mobile networks LTE/LTE-A and analyze the QoS performance alternatives that offer this type of technology for the delivery of IPTV services. Also, we performed the simulation of the traffic generated by the IPTV service on a LTE network model for evaluating performance parameters (throughput, delay and packet loss) in different scenarios. And finally we present technical guidelines for the deployment of IPTV service over LTE networks, which were identified from the results of the simulations and analysis alternatives LTE network performance to provide IPTV service with QoS.
