Why do you need proactive video delivery network observability? - $15
Date: March 21, 2025Topics: 2025 BEITC Proceedings, Immersive Audio, Satellite and OTT DeliveryThe rapid adaptation of IP workflows in production, contribution, cloud, and distribution is always challenging. Organizations spend millions of dollars training the workforce, deploying monitoring solutions and troubleshooting “network issues,” which takes an enormous portion of their tasks. Time and effort are wasted on old techniques that were suitable for standard file delivery versus today’s high throughput and low latency demands of live production.
In this paper we would like to draw your attention to a different way of thinking, observing and gaining in-depth understanding of the lifeline of the broadcast industry: the network. The traditional reactive way of monitoring events and alarms must evolve to use proactive observability. Unlike standard observability that just collects data from elements and passive probes, proactive observability involves injecting small amounts of traffic into the network to discover the network routes and to support the continuous measurement of the performance of the traffic to gain valuable insights into the experience of the traffic.

Wireless Microphone Operation for Mega-Events in the 1425-1525 MHz Band - $15
Date: April 26, 2020Topics: 2020 BEITC Proceedings, New Spectrum IssuesDue to the repurpossing of the 600 MHz band that is scheduled to be completed in July 2020, the alternate 1435 – 1525 MHz band will be more heavily used by broadcasters for wireless microphones to cover mega-events such as the Superbowl, World Series, Kentucky Derby, national elections, the Academy Awards, etc. This band has been used for wireless microphones through the use of special temporay authorization (STA) granted by the FCC. This procedure will effectively by normalized through an approval process with the Aerospace and Flight Test Radio Coordinating Council (?AFTRCC?), the agency that coordinates aeronautical mobile telemetry (i.e. flight training), the primary service in this band. Wireless microphone equipment must incorporate location, date, and time awareness. AFTRCC will provide a digital code (i.e. an electronic key) that will unlock the equipment, enabling it to work at the approved time and location. This paper and presentation will detail the regulations, eligilibity, and procedure for operating wireless microphones in this frequency band.

Zero Trust Network Access Considerations for Remote Live and Postproduction - $15
Date: April 14, 2023Topics: 2023 BEITC Proceedings, Media and Cloud 2As virtualization and GPU technologies evolve, the Media & Entertainment industry is discovering that adopting a remote access strategy with a hybrid cloud approach is a strategic imperative. The challenge of securing a hybrid environment for live and post production workflows requires organizations to understand and implement Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) concept. By understanding the importance and pitfalls associated with authenticating, authorizing, connecting, and tracking access to a hybrid environment for a remote workforce, organizations can ensure the security and productivity of its data and staff.
