Abstract:
In a next generation broadcast architecture, a broadcast gateway may send segments of a data file to a broadcast transmission system and to a server. The broadcast transmission system wirelessly transmits the segments to a user equipment (UE) device. When the UE device fails to decode a segment, it sends a request for re-transmission of the segment to the server via an IP network. The server re-transmits the requested segment to the UE device via the IP network. Furthermore, the gateway may receive one or more IP data flows (e.g., video streams) having variable bit rate. The gateway may apply dynamically-variable coding to the IP data flows so that the resulting coded IP data flows have an aggregate bit rate that matches a constant physical transport rate of the broadcast transmission system.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for operating a server to facilitate the transfer of a data file to a first user equipment (UE) device, wherein the server is part of an IP network, the method comprising:\n receiving segments of a data file from a broadcast gateway, wherein a broadcast transmission system also receives the segments from the broadcast gateway and transmits them into space as part of an RF signal, wherein the first UE device is configured to receive the RF signal and generate one or more missing segment indications identifying one or more segments that it is not able to successfully recover from the RF signal, wherein the first UE device is further configured to transmit the one or more missing segment indications to the server through the IP network; receiving the one or more missing segment indications from the first UE device; sending the one or more segments identified by the missing segment indications to the first UE device through the IP network.
