RTP/UDP/IP Protocol Hardware Stack – H.264/H.265 NAL Video Streams Packet Processing

The DB-RTP-UDP-IP-NAL Intellectual Property Core is an RTP/UDP/IP Protocol Hardware Stack with the following protocol processing …

Overview

The DB-RTP-UDP-IP-NAL Intellectual Property Core is an RTP/UDP/IP Protocol Hardware Stack with the following protocol processing units:

  •  RTP Packet Processor
  •  UDP Packet Processor
  •  IP Packet Processor
  •  MAC Frame Layer Processor

The image below  depicts the RTP/UDP/IP Protocol Hardware Stack SoC IP Core embedded within an FPGA/ASSP/ASIC device.

For RX (i.e., receiving packets from the network), there is optional packet reordering to absorb network jitter.

For both TX/RX, multiple NAL video streams supported. The DB-RTP-UDP-IP-NAL targets H.264 NAL Streams. See DB-RTP-UDP-IP-AV for raw, uncompressed RGB/YUV video streams.

Enhancing Ethernet Security with MACsec

Ethernet was originally designed for high-speed data transfer and interoperability between devices. However, traditional Ethernet does not provide built-in mechanisms for securing data traffic, such as encryption or authenticity protection. This is where MACsec comes into the picture.

What Makes Ethernet IP Truly Automotive-Grade

This blog examines what separates truly automotive-grade Ethernet IP from generic implementations across functional safety, time-sensitive networking, security, observability, lifecycle management, and the integration disciplines that only become visible once a program is deep into development.
