Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast

‘Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast’ explores how exemplary content production and delivery standards are maintained and legal obligations are met. The series includes four Themed Content Collections, each of which tackles a different area of the media supply chain.
Broadcast sets high standards for itself because in a highly competitive media landscape consumers expect flawless delivery every time. Broadcasters are also subject to legislative compliance in a number of areas of operation and delivery.
A robust monitoring strategy is key to meeting these interrelated requirements of ensuring performance benchmarks are maintained, and statutory obligations are met throughout the media supply chain.
This set of Themed Content Collections explore the challenges and solutions to establishing and meeting requirements in key areas of; cloud & multi-site production systems, playout & delivery, OTA RF systems and production systems.
A proliferation of delivery formats and the arrival of new production workflows and multi-site teams is being enabled by IP and cloud based production systems. The established landscape of monitoring is shifting. This series discusses the evolving challenges and new AI powered technologies emerging to help address them.
Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast will publish in four parts:
Part 1. Cloud, Multi-Site & Remote Systems
AVAILABLE NOW - Download Part 1 HERE
Article 1 : Monitoring Cloud Networks
Networks, by their very definition are dispersed. But some are more dispersed than others, especially when we look at the challenges multi-site and remote teams face.
Article 2 : Monitoring Cloud Infrastructure
If we take cloud infrastructures to their extreme, that is, their physical locality is unknown to us, then monitoring them becomes a whole new ball game, especially as dispersed teams use them for production.
Article 3 : Monitoring SRT Delivery To The Cloud
Our partner AlvaLinks discuss how to enhance SRT edge-cloud delivery by addressing broadcast and IT engineers complex SRT monitoring challenges.
Article 4 : File Based Monitoring In Production Systems
The evolution of IP based production and increased computer processing power have enabled new workflows, so how is compute resource being deployed to create new remote and hybrid approaches?
Part 2. The Converged Delivery Ecosystem
AVAILABLE NOW - Download Part 2 HERE
Article 1 : Monitoring The Media Supply Chain
Why monitoring the multi-format delivery ecosystem starts with a holistic approach to the entire media supply chain.
Article 2 : Monitoring Delivery In The Converged OTA - OTT Ecosystem
Convergence or coexistence between linear broadcast, IP based delivery and 5G mobile networks creates new challenges for monitoring of delivery paths, both technically and logistically.
Article 3 : Monitoring QoS & QoE To Power Monetization
Measuring Quality of Experience (QoE) as perceived by viewers has become critical for monetization both from targeted advertising and direct content consumption.
Article 4 : Accessibility & The Impact Of AI
The proliferation of delivery devices and formats increases the challenges presented by accessibility compliance, but it is an area of rapid AI powered innovation.
Part 3. Hybrid Production Systems
COMING SOON
Article 1 : Monitoring Video In Capture & Production
How monitoring video during capture and production has been made more complex by UHD and HDR and a proliferation of deliverable formats with OTT, Streaming and Social Media.
Article 2 : Monitoring Hybrid Networks
With many facilities running hybrid SDI/IP production networks and the potential for very large numbers of devices, monitoring becomes a more challenging task. What is the role of Broadcast Controllers and Network Orchestration tools?
Article 3 : Compute Systems Monitoring
Along with hybrid networks comes an ecosystem of compute resource that combines traditional dedicated hardware, virtualization, FPGA arrays, and microservices. How do you ensure all the systems are up and performing how they should?
Part 4. OTA RF Systems
COMING SOON
Article 1 : TV RF Fundamentals
An exploration of the fundamentals of TV RF and licensing requirements, and hos to measure and monitor RF transmission for compliance and viewer QoE.
Article 2 : Feeding The Transmitter
Why monitoring the elements before the transmitter, including studio-transmitter links and CALM Act audio delivery are key to achieving effective content flow QC.
Article 3 : High-Power RF Management Strategies
A discussion of some classic yet simple monitoring strategies, remote probes and SFN’s.
