According to an aspect of the present invention, by with secondary MCU and several three grades of MCU that connect down invent the MCU of a secondary, and the conversion of the actual situation of the enterprising line identifier MT of the critical port number that correspondingly need communicate by letter at them, thereby realize three-stage cascade in the decide TV conference system of MCU of the MCU that does not support three-stage cascade, and the image that this TV conference system transmits and the quality of sound do not descend, terminal under non-" virtual terminal " MCU can be controlled the video camera of terminal under " virtual terminal " MCU, vice versa, just the same when video camera control operation and two-level concatenation.The meeting control operation is just the same during also with two-level concatenation.Method of the present invention has enlarged networking capability, and image, the sound quality of having avoided analog switching to bring descends and the control complicated problems.
According to a further aspect of the invention, all three grades of MCU can and must be connected on 0 to 9 port, and at this moment Zui Da virtual identifying T number is 176.
By description, will make technique scheme of the present invention and advantage apparent below in conjunction with accompanying drawing to preferred embodiment of the present invention.In the accompanying drawing,
The MCU of the ITU TH.243 standard of following of prior art that shown in Figure 1 is realizes the system schematic of simulation cascade;
Shown in Figure 2 is the system schematic of the MCU realization three-stage cascade of the ITU of following TH.243 standard of the present invention, and wherein secondary MCU and its each three grades of MCU that connects down are virtual is a secondary MCU;
Fig. 3 shows the process chart that the method according to this invention realizes the MCU three-stage cascade.
Hereinafter will describe the present invention in detail.
Virtual MCU of the present invention system is illustrated among Fig. 2, promptly at first with some three grades of MCU subnet systems of cascade again under the secondary MCU subnet system; Thus, this virtual MCU need be write a virtual secondary MCU sign M number certainly.Promptly one by the TV conference system of following the secondary MCU under ITU TH.231 and main MCU H.243 and its and forming with the terminal that MCU at different levels link in, processing procedure by bit rate distributing signal (BAS) signaling is controlled and is revised, invent a MCU with the MCU of subordinate with second level MCU used in the meeting television system and cascade thereof, thus, for higher level MCU, below can thinking, it has only met a MCU, and for the terminal of the MCU of the terminal of the corresponding levels or subordinate, they also all can think to be connected on the same MCU.
The virtual MCU technology mainly is the processing procedure of BAS signaling is controlled and revised, comprise following several aspect: not indicating MCU in BAS signaling code stream is which rank of, and the reason of not supporting the main MCU of three-stage cascade can not accept three grades of MCU is the terminal list that it does not accept second MCU coming from same port.So we handle the terminal list of third level MCU, the terminal list that converts to after virtual MT number with second level MCU merges, at this moment have only one M number; When issuing main MCU, caused the illusion of having only two-stage MCU, just can make other MCU see the terminal of three grades of MCU.And, remain a tertiary structure for this third level MCU and the two-stage MCU on it.When the terminal of third level MCU be watched or be broadcasted to other terminal in the meeting will, the MT in the order number was MT number after the conversion, promptly virtual MT number; When secondary MCU receives this order, it must convert to again for these MT numbers three grades MT number, do corresponding processing again according to described order at last.
Represent virtual M number with M ', T ' expression virtual T number, then virtual MT number as follows with actual MT number transformation rule:
When T is 1 to 16, just equal virtual MT number for actual MT number, promptly at the terminal on the secondary MCU; When T ' was 17 to 32, actual M number was (M '-1) * 16+2, and T number is (T '-1) mod 16+1, promptly at three grades of MCU on the 0th port; When T ' was 33 to 48, actual M number was (M '-1) * 16+3, and T number is (T-1) mod 16+1, promptly at three grades of MCU on the 1st port.So analogize, when T ' greater than 16 the time, actual M number is the virtual T-17 of (M '-1) * 16+2+INT[()/16], T number is (T '-1) mod 16+1.
Conversely, equal actual MT number for virtual MT number of the secondary terminal, the M ' of three grades of terminals equals secondary M number; T ' equals: 16+ is from the actual T of MCU port number * 16+ number.So three grades of MCU can only be connected on 0 to 9 port, at this moment Zui Da T ' is: 16+9 * 16+16=176;
Secondly, when virtual multipoint control unit of the present invention is communicated by letter with the higher level, only critical end eloquence need carry out virtual MT number with actual MT number conversion process.Adopting which port of following rule judgment is critical port, as shown in Figure 2, at first, if a multipoint control unit is in the second level of three-stage cascade, judge that then the port 20,22 that connects terminal under this multipoint control unit is critical port with the port one of communicating by letter with higher level's multipoint control unit 0.If a multipoint control unit is in the third level of three-stage cascade, judge that then the port 30,32,34 and 36 that connects terminal under this multipoint control unit is critical port.
The processing procedure of virtual multipoint control unit of the present invention is illustrated among Fig. 3.
Select the MCU that the follows TU TH.243 standard main MCU as video conferencing for use, in its subordinate secondary MCU and three grades of MCU are set further, MCU at different levels are connected with some terminals separately.If system judges it is that virtual MCU sends the BAS signaling to its higher level MCU at step S100, system also will judge whether the BAS signaling that will send is to have MT number H.230 order at step S102, if judging among the system step S104 is for this MT number actual MT number of each terminal of virtual MCU, transmission after carrying out treatment step S106 and converting virtual MT number to actual MT in this order number to.In addition, system also needs corresponding processing is made in the indication tabulation of the terminal in the BAS signaling (TIL) order, if system judges that the BAS signaling that virtual MCU will send is its TIL order that meets each MCU down in step S108, then system carries out treatment step S110, this TIL order is expanded into the TIL order of whole virtual MCU, and then sends this BAS signaling.
If system judges that at step S100 virtual MCU does not send the BAS signaling to its higher level MCU, next, system also will judge whether it is that each MCU institute connecting terminal has sent the BAS signaling in virtual MCU among the step S200, if it is to have MT number H.230 order that simultaneity factor is judged the BAS signaling that will send at step S202, then further judge MT number be actual MT number of each terminal of virtual MCU, step S204, final system is with execution in step S206, after converting virtual MT number to this actual MT number to, send this BAS signaling.
Secondly, if system judges it is not that each MCU institute connecting terminal has sent the BAS signaling in virtual MCU at step S200, then system also will judge whether the BAS signaling of the virtual MCU that this virtual MCU reception higher level MCU sends in step S300, further, have virtual MT number H.230 order if this virtual MCU receives, step S302 is with the processing of execution in step S304, converting to for this virtual MT number actual MT number, carry out respective handling again according to described order at last.
