Abstract: Methods and systems for provisioning content streaming service are provided. An example method includes performing network segmentation for a network associated with a multi-dwelling unit (MDU) to generate a plurality of network segments and performing segmentation of a content resource provided by the MDU into a plurality of content segments respectively corresponding to the plurality of network segments. Each content segment of the content resource comprising content items is designated to the corresponding network segment based on a predetermined network policy. The method further comprises providing access to one of the plurality of content segments to a user equipment (UE) connected to the network segment corresponding to the content segment.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for provisioning services to a hospitality user in a hospitality establishment are provided. An example method includes creating a user profile for the hospitality user. The user profile includes a user ID and user credential, service type data and user preference data pertaining to a service. The method further includes receiving a request for authentication from a wireless device associated with the hospitality user and connected to a wireless network of the hospitality establishment. The request includes a user-provided credential. The method further includes performing a cloud-based authentication process to determine an authentication status of the hospitality user, sending the authentication status of the hospitality user to a hospitality property management system (PMS) of the hospitality establishment, determining a user registration status of the hospitality user, and providing access to the wireless network to the wireless device, based on the user registration status.

Abstract: Methods and systems for provisioning content streaming services are provided. An example method includes receiving a user request for streaming a content item from a user equipment (UE) of a user associated with a multi-dwelling unit (MDU), identifying an MDU network segment to which the UE is connected, identifying an integrated user-network segment profile associated with the user, identifying a user segment to which the user belongs, based on the integrated user-network segment profile, determining that the requested content item is accessible by the user, based on the MDU network segment and the user segment, and providing access to the requested content item to the UE over the MDU network segment.

Abstract: Methods and systems for provisioning content streaming service are provided. An example method includes dividing a network associated with a multi-dwelling unit (MDU) having multiple zones within the MDU into multiple network segments respectively corresponding to the multiple zones, dividing a content resource provided by the MDU into multiple segments respectively corresponding to the multiple network segments. Each segment of the content resource includes content items specific to the corresponding network segment based on a predetermined network policy. The method further includes receiving a request from a user equipment (UE) for access to a content item of the content resource, determining that the UE is associated with one of the network segments and that the requested content item is included in the segment of content resource specific to the network segment, and granting the access to the content item to the UE.

Abstract: Methods and systems for provisioning content streaming services are provided. In one example, a method includes: receiving user registration data of multiple users associated with an MDU, the user registration data including a user identifier and a user experience level for each user, generating a user profile for each user, the user profile including the user registration data, viewership data, and at least one user feature, grouping the users to generate multiple user segments, each user segment including a list of users associated with the user segment and at least one common feature or attribute of the users, designating specific streaming service and content resource to each user segment, based on the common user experience level and the common feature according to a pre-defined policy, and provisioning the designated streaming service and content resource to a user of the MDU, based on the user segment to which the user belongs.

Abstract: A content selector switch selects, based on a received request for content from a particular remote control device, a multicast network on which to provide the requested particular content. Each multicast network channel of the plurality of multicast network channels is mapped to a respective video channel and each remote control device in the facility (e.g., hotel) is mapped to a respective video channel that the TV controlled by the remote control device stays tuned to. The content selector switch performs the selection by identifying which remote control device in the facility sent the request and selecting the multicast network channel that is mapped to the RF video channel the identified remote control device is mapped to. The content selector switch then provides the specific content on the selected multicast network channel to a multicast-to-channel output device that provides the content on the RF video channel for the TV tuned to that RF video channel to display.

Abstract: Methods and systems for provisioning content streaming service are provided. In one example, a method includes: receiving a user request for streaming a content item from a user equipment (UE) connected to a first network segment corresponding to a first zone of a multi-dwelling unit (MDU), the user request including a first network identifier assigned to the first network segment and a user identity associated with the user, identifying the first network segment based on the first network identifier assigned to the first network segment, determining accessibility of the content item to the user, based on a pre-established network policy, performing an authentication process to authenticate the user based on the user identity associated with the user, and transmitting the requested content item to the UE via a routed network traffic over the first network segment to allow the UE to stream the requested content.
