1. A network system comprising at least one processor to implement:
- at least one network camera configured to apply an auto traffic control (ATC) function for adjusting at least one of a frame rate and a bit rate of image data, based on a network congestion state; and
at least one client apparatus configured to store a setting indicating application of the ATC function which is determined based on a characteristic of the at least one client apparatus and receive the image data from the at least one network camera, the characteristic of the at least one client apparatus being determined based on a type of the at least one client apparatus,wherein the at least one client apparatus is further configured to transmit a connection request to the at least one network camera and the setting corresponding to the application of the ATC function, and the at least one network camera is further configured to determine whether to apply the ATC function based on the characteristic of the at least one client apparatus.

Abstract
Provided are a network system and a network method. The network system includes: at least one network camera; at least one client configured to receive an image or a moving image from the at least one network camera; and a network configured to relay communication between the at least one network camera and the at least one client, wherein the at least one client is further configured to transmit an auto traffic control (ATC) priority and a setting corresponding to the applying of the ATC function while requesting to be connected to the at least one network camera.

11. A network method performed by a network camera comprising:
-
receiving a connection request and a setting corresponding to application of an auto traffic control (ATC) function from at least one client apparatus, the setting indicating application of the ATC function which is determined based on a characteristic of the at least one client apparatus, and the characteristic of the at least one client apparatus being determined based on a type of the at least one client apparatus; determining whether to apply the ATC function based on the setting and a network congestion state; and transmitting image data by changing profile setting information including at least one of a frame rate and bit rate of the image data, to the at least one client apparatus, according to the determination of the network camera whether to apply the ATC function, the profile setting information being the profile setting information of the image data encoded in an encoder of the network camera and including information regarding the frame rate and bit rate of the image data, and being changed according to the network congestion state and the setting corresponding to application of the ATC function. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 19, 20)

17. A network method performed by at least one client apparatus comprising:
-
storing a setting corresponding to application of an auto traffic control (ATC) function which is determined based on a characteristic of the at least one client apparatus, the characteristic of the at least one client apparatus being determined based on a type of the at least one client apparatus; transmitting a connection request to a network camera and the setting corresponding to application of the ATC function; and receiving image data changed profile setting information including at least one of a frame rate and bit rate of the image data, from the network camera, according to the determination of the network camera whether to apply the ATC function based on the setting and a network congestion state, the profile setting information being the profile setting information of the image data encoded in an encoder of the network camera and including information regarding the frame rate and bit rate of the image data, and being changed according to the network congestion state and the setting corresponding to application of the ATC function. - View Dependent Claims (18)
