Research on Mobile Social Network Based Multimedia Sharing Application

Abstract:

New application requirements like “real-time” and “multimedia” is formed gradually with the trend of convergence of the Internet, web 2.0 and telecommunication network. In the era of Internet and web 2.0, users hope to communicate under multimedia context, to which Weibo and other SNS have adapted a lot. Users of web community wish to demand real-time videos and share with others instantly. Network convergence, IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystems) and VoLTE deployment all make the telecom operators long for new multimedia services. In terms of the users, they want to receive multimedia service anywhere and anytime, while the service and content providers also want to build a barrier-free channel for offering and distributing service. Taking the related technologies and user requirements into consideration, a multimedia sharing service and application is proposed and demonstrated in this paper. The system technique schema and deployment solution could help understanding the multimedia sharing service framework and modules in the convergence network. Samples of signal flows and processes are demonstrated in 3 typical application scenarios. Business application, product perspective and business model analysis shows the great market potential of this new multimedia sharing application and service in the near future.
