Abstract :
The paper discusses a converged DVB/IP environment capable to provide differentiated services at a guaranteed quality. Towards this the paper presents the design, implementation and integration of QoS aware mechanisms in the DVB/IP environment in order to enhance its capability as an IP networking infrastructure, optimizing the system´s for the provision of IP heterogeneous services. The capability of the proposed QoS aware DVB/IP network environment is validated through experimental tests that were conducted under real transmission/reception conditions at a prototype infrastructure that conforms to the discussed architectural design issues.
