Show Description IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) is an architectural framework for delivering IP multimedia to fixed and mobile users. IMS promises to facilitate the blending of quad-play services (voice, video, TV and mobility) in interactive, personalized ways. Delivery of a quad-play bundle, with one monthly-bill, is a highly desirable objective for service providers of all types – especially wireline operators. In this informative white paper, The Challenges of IPTV Delivery over IMS, Ixia discusses both current IPTV delivery and IPTV within IMS. We will describe the various standard groups’ activities, look at the challenges to service providers with respect to IMS-IPTV delivery and finally look at the testing requirements for the networks that deliver IMS-IPTV. Learn about IPTV challenges when delivering the service over IMS and the testing requirements needed to verify each of the video transport architectures.

Get answer to your question and much more What is an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS)? IP Multimedia Subsystem or IMS is a standards-based architectural framework for delivering multimedia
communications services such as voice, video and text messaging over IP networks. The IMS specifications were originally created by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) to standardize the implementation of next-generation mobile networks. Download IMS Solution Brief The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) architecture decomposes the network into a distinct application, control and transport layers with standardized interfaces to promote scalability, flexibility and extensibility. An oversimplified IP Multimedia Subsystem architecture is depicted in the figure below. IMS enables secure and reliable multimedia communications between diverse devices across diverse networks. The architectural model provides a unified infrastructure and common mechanisms for controlling, manipulating, routing and managing sessions, as well as implementing authentication, authorization and accounting controls. The IMS specifications incorporate widely used Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) recommendations such as the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for session control signaling. The control layer often referred to as the IMS core, is the cornerstone of the architecture responsible for regulating communications flows. The main functional elements of the control layer include:
Many IP Multimedia Subsystem functions can be deconstructed into distinct functional elements. For example, the CSCF function can play three discrete roles: Serving-CSCF (C-CSCF), Interrogating-CSCF (I-CSCF), or Proxy-CSCF (P-CSCF). IP Multimedia Services (IMS) Advantages and BenefitsBy defining a layered network architecture with open interfaces IP Multimedia SErvices provide greater flexibility and extensibility compared to traditional monolithic communications service provider network architectures. IP Multimedia Services advantages and benefits for service providers include:
