Abstract

The invention discloses a digital television program sharing device, a digital television program sharing method and a set-top box. The device comprises a receiving module and a transmission module, wherein the receiving module is used for receiving a program request from a mobile terminal; and the transmission module is used for transmitting program data corresponding to the program request to the mobile terminal by a wireless local area network (WLAN) protocol. By the device, the method and the set-top box, connection between the mobile terminal and a server is realized by a WLAN, so the problem of high communication cost produced by the sharing of Internet protocol television (IPTV) programs to the mobile terminal is solved, and a connection way is convenient, fast and low in cost.

Description
