Current IPTV mostly operates in dedicated network, which is costly and has limited number of subscribers due to the geographical limitation where subscribers need to be located relatively close to IPTV providers. With a proper Quality of Service (QoS) mechanism of IPv6, IPTV providers can utilize Internet optimally to get more ubiquitous subscribers while maintaining the Quality of Service (QoS). In this paper we propose QoS mechanism based on priority and take into account the number of subscribers. We use IPv6 extension header for QoS structure and queuing and scheduling algorithms to handle the QoS of multiple multicast streams in IPTV network. Our simulation using NS-3 simulator shows acceptable throughput and delay of the proposed mechanism.
