Sumavision fully supports the construction and application of the AR Special & Winter Games 5G Express for China Media Group. Besides, Sumavision products and solutions are mainly contributed to this project and award.
In this project, Sumavision deployed the 4K+5G media backpacks and UHD aggregation gateways at the high-speed train and used the media backpack to do the signals encoding and real-time transmission for the interview videos. The studio in the No. 8 carriage deploys an aggregation gateway for signal reception. And then, the high-speed train studio uses the directing & switching system to do the program production and switching. Finally, all the PGM video contents are transmitted to the CMG studio through the 5G base stations for subsequent production and broadcast. As one of the achievements of Sumavision, our media backpack uses advanced channel aggregation technology and CSF transmission protocol to realize the channel bounding, which solves the rapid movement of the base station and finally realize the stable transmission of 40Mbps UHD video signals on the 350km/h high-speed train.
