Method and System for Cellular Network Services and an Intelligent Integrated Broadcast Television Downlink Having Intelligent Service Control With Feedback

Abstract

In an RF communication system, aspects for cellular network and intelligent integrated broadcast television downlink with intelligent service control with feedback may comprise generating a request in a mobile terminal for media to be delivered to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal may transmit the request via a cellular service. The mobile terminal may receive the requested media having a specified quality of service via a single integrated cellular and VHF/UHF baseband processing integrated circuit. The received requested media may be received from a cellular broadcast service, the cellular service and/or a VHF/UHF broadcast service. The mobile terminal may negotiate for an acceptable quality of service with a service provider that controls delivery of the media. The media may be delivered via at least one of the cellular broadcast service, the cellular service and the VHF/UHF broadcast service.

         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said received requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service is from a digital video broadcasting (DVB) system. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said received requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service is from an advanced standards technical committee (ATSC) system. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said received requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service is from an integrated service digital broadcasting terrestrial (ISDB) system. 
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said received requested media is received from at least one of global system for mobile communications (GSM), general packet radio service (GPRS), enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE), code division multiple access 2000 (CDMA2000), wideband CDMA (WCDMA), high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) systems, and multiple broadcast/multicast service (MBMS). 
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said cellular broadcast service is a downlink only cellular broadcast service. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein said cellular broadcast service and said cellular service are provided via a wireless service provider. 
     
     
         11 . A system for communicating with a plurality of communications networks, the system comprising:
 a mobile terminal generating a request for media to be delivered to said mobile terminal, and transmitting said request via a cellular service; and   a single integrated cellular and VHF/UHF baseband processing integrated circuit in said mobile terminal that receives said requested media having a specified quality of service from at least one of a cellular broadcast service, said cellular service and a VHF/UHF broadcast service, wherein said mobile terminal consumes said received requested media.   
     
     
         12 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry that processes negotiation, via said mobile terminal, of an acceptable quality of service with a service provider that controls delivery of said media via at least one of said cellular broadcast service, said cellular service and said VHF/UHF broadcast service. 
     
     
         13 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry that determines, in said mobile terminal, said quality of service based on at least received channel condition. 
     
     
         14 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry said mobile terminal utilizes to communicate with said cellular service via uplink and downlink communication paths. 
     
     
         15 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry, in said mobile terminal, that receives said requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service that is a digital video broadcasting (DVB) system. 
     
     
         16 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry, in said mobile terminal, that receives said requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service that is an advanced standards technical committee (ATSC) system. 
     
     
         17 . The system according to  claim 11 , further comprising circuitry, in said mobile terminal, that receives said requested media from said VHF/UHF broadcast service that is an integrated service digital broadcasting terrestrial (ISDB) system.
