Abstract :
The key issue of multimedia systems in home network environment is interoperability among different kinds of multimedia devices. And, as for multimedia content providers outside a home, another issue of multimedia systems in home network environment is how to provide the multimedia service from the outside of a home. We developed a UPnP AV architectural multimedia system with a home gateway powered by the OSGi platform, which gives interoperability among multimedia home devices in home network environment, and a powerful tool for multimedia content providers to provide smarter multimedia service for users in a home.
