Generation and Development of the 4K Technology 4K is the result of technical innovation made by the film industry to cope with the challenge from the HD TV. In 2004, to ensure the technical advantage of digital TV over the HD TV, the Digital Cinema Initiative (DCI) composed of seven Hollywood film companies produced an industry standard defining two levels of digital cinema definition: DCI 2K: 2048 x 1080, 24 or 48 frames per second DCI 4K: 4096 x 2160 (applicable to 2.39:1 and 1.85:1), 24 frames per second In 2012, the ITU released the Ultra HDTV international standard ITU-R Recommendation BT.2020, which marked 4K technology s entry into the field of household consumer goods. 4K: 3840 x 2160 (16:9); 8K: 7680 x 4320 Frame rate: progressive scanning, supporting 120p, 60p, 59.94p, 50p, 30p, 29.97p, 25p, 24p, and 23.976p (nine different frame rates) 3

4K Industry Chain is Upgraded and Becomes Mature Terminals and chips are ready. Network building has been started. Contents are more abundant. 6

4K Terminals Becomes Affordable and 4K Contents Become Mature Chinese vendors: high cost-efficient in 2017, 23 million 4K TVs will be sold globally as estimated, -Data source: NPD Display search 50-inch as low as CNY4,000 60-inch as low as CNY5,500 Mainstream TV manufacturers main models support 4K. 4K becomes a standard function of a TV for consumers. The Social Network The first film shot by 4K HD cameras 2010 House of Cards 4K Version 4K TV series 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil Using 4K broadcast technology in sport games 2014 A Bite of China Shot and produced by 4K HD cameras 2014 All conditions for 4K movies are ready, and 4K movies can be fully put into commercial application. The movie investor, director, and production company determine whether to use 4K. The basic technical architecture of Live TV is designed to support HD, so the 4K live technologies and products are still in development and progress. 7

4K has Been Put into Application Widely in the World 8

Only HEVC can effectively reduce progressive the bandwidth interlaced and make 4K operation possible. The H.265 can provide ideal coding efficiency. By Feb. 2015, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Intel, AMD, Nvidia, and MTK have provided codec chips supporting H.265. VLC has launched player software supporting 4K. As estimated, we may see 4K development explosion in 2016. 9

Low-Bitrate for Live TV Existing System IRD TS HD/SD TS Normal Encoder LB Encoder (Quanta) Normal TS LBTS DRM IPTV Platform (SMS EPG Live server) LB Channel LB Channel List Channel List Channel LB User STB Normal User STB LB(Low-Bitrate) Encoder receives channel TS stream from the existing system. It is better to source from IRD, due to the better video quality. The output stream from LB encoder is sent to DRM system, as the normal bitrate stream from regular encoder. After DRM encryption, the stream will be transferred to CDN for distribution. For the customer, The low bandwidth customers can watch low-bitrate stream channel, and normal stream channel can be watched by customer with sufficient bandwidth. If the whole system runs on low bandwidth, Low-Bitrate encoder need to deployed,and regular encoders are not needed. 13

Low-Bitrate Live TV Features Live TV Delay 2-3s (compared to the source channel) when sourced from IRD, the delay time is almost same as the regular encoder. Output Rate HD:3-3.5 Mbps SD:1.1 Mbps Video Quality MOS * value > 3.6 or DMOS ** value < 28 * MOS is defined by the MOS ITU.T BT.500-12 ** DMOS is measured by PQA600 DMOS = 100-20 * MOS 15
