Receiving system and methods for processing broadcasting signal
A receiving system comprises a first module configured to receive location information identifying current location of the receiver, a second module configured to receive a broadcasting signal including cell information which includes first information defining a location of each cell and second information defining a transport channel of each cell, extract the cell information, select a cell according to the extracted cell information, tune to a transport channel of the selected cell, and processing a broadcast transported from the tuned transport channel, a storage medium, and a controller configured to control to extract the cell information which is matched with the received location information, select the cell, tune to the transport channel of the selected cell, and process the broadcast transported from the tuned transport channel.
1. A receiving system comprising:
a module configured to receive location information identifying a current location of the receiving system;
a tuner configured to receive a broadcasting signal comprising mobile service data, known data sequences, segment synchronization data, field synchronization data and a cell information table including cell information, wherein the cell information includes cell location information for defining a location of each cell and transport stream identification information for identifying the broadcasting signal carrying the mobile service data;
a demodulator configured to demodulate the received broadcasting signal;
a channel equalizer configured to compensate channel distortion of the demodulated broadcasting signal based on at least one of the known data sequences;
a first decoder configured to perform cyclic redundancy check (CRC) decoding and Reed-Solomon (RS) decoding on an RS frame including mobile service data in the channel distortion compensated broadcasting signal to correct at least one error in the RS frame;
a second decoder configured to extract the cell information from the error-corrected RS frame; and
a controller configured to control the tuner based on the extracted cell information to facilitate continuous watching by a user of a same mobile service when traveling from a coverage area of one transmitter to a coverage area of another transmitter.
2. The receiving system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a display unit configured to output the mobile service data in the error-corrected RS frame.
3. The receiving system of claim 1 ,
wherein the module comprises at least a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver or a Dead-Reckoning (DR) sensor.
4. The receiving system of claim 3 , wherein the controller is further configured to control reception of input from the user regarding a destination.
5. The receiving system of claim 4 , wherein the controller is further configured to control reception of routing information that is routed according to the input received from the user.
6. The receiving system of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further configured to control extraction of the cell information matching at least the received routing information or the received location information.
7. The receiving system of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to control selection of a cell having a largest magnitude of signal power among each cell according to the extracted cell information.
8. The receiving system of claim 6 , wherein the controller is further configured to control selection of at least a nearest cell to a current cell or a next cell into which the receiving system will move according to the extracted cell information.
9. The receiving system of claim 1 , wherein the cell information table is applied to a Multi-Frequency network (MFN) environment.
