3. Introduction  IPTV multicasting is an important service for residential users in WiMAX. MS 1 MS 2 MS 3 BS 3

4. Introduction  According to the audiovisual spec., the original video can be converted into different files with different resolution. Data Resolution Req. Base Layer Enhancement Layer 1 Base Layer Enhancement Layers 1 Base Layer Enhancement Layers 2 Enhancement Layers 3 4

5. System model & Problem Specification  N users  T : denote the total number of time slots allocated for IPTV multicast streaming service in a downlink subframe  M subscribed video programs denoted by P = {P 1, P 2, …, P M } in the system, and each program can be encoded into at most L layers.  B = {B 1, B 2, …, B w } : burst profile  the robustness of B i is B 1 < B 2 <……< B w high data rate 5

6. System model & Problem Specification  u m,i : the utility value when a user receives the i-th layer of program m  : the total utility for each user who receives up to k layers of video program m  n*u m,i : total utility for the system 6

17. Simulations Resource allocation for users receiving Program I 17 Setting ASetting B

18. Conclusions  Propose a scheme that can allocate the limited resources effectively for layer-encoded IPTV such that the total utility over all users is maximized.  The simulations show that UE-LEM can achieve high total utility. 18
