Abstract

A method and an apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals thereof are disclosed. The apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals, the apparatus comprises an encoder to encode service data, a bit interleaver to interleave the encoded service data, a frame builder to build at least one signal frame including the bit interleaved service data, wherein the at least one signal frame includes a plurality of OFDM symbols, a modulator to modulate data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme and a transmitter to transmit the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

Claims (42)

1. A method for transmitting broadcast signals, the method comprising:

encoding service data;

parity interleaving a part of the encoded service data,

wherein the part of the encoded service data is parity bits of the encoded service data and interleaved by a bit unit, and

wherein the parity interleaved service data has a number of bit groups which are based on a length of the encoded service data;

group-wise interleaving the number of the bit groups by using a permutation order which is based on the number of the bit groups,

wherein the number of the bit groups are interleaved by a unit of the bit groups according to the permutation order;

block interleaving the group-wise interleaved bit groups with a set including a number of bit groups which are based on a modulation order,

wherein the block interleaving further includes:

row-wise writing bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups in rows of the set; and

column-wise reading 1 bit from each row;

mapping the block interleaved service data onto a constellation based on a modulation order;

building at least one signal frame including the mapped block interleaved service data;

modulating data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; and

transmitting the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the modulation order is Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK), the number of bit groups included in the set is 2.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the permutation order is determined based on the modulation order and a code rate.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the bit groups have a size corresponding to a number of 360 bits.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the block interleaving interleaves bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups using one of a first interleaving and a second interleaving,

wherein the first interleaving interleaves the bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups by writing the bits in a column direction and reading the bits in a row direction, and

wherein the second interleaving interleaves the bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups by writing the bits in the row direction and reading the bits in the column direction.

6. An apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals, the apparatus comprising:

an encoder to encode service data;

a parity interleaving block to interleave a part of the encoded service data,

wherein the part of the encoded service data is parity bits of the encoded service data and interleaved by a bit unit, and

wherein the parity interleaved service data has a number of bit groups which are based on a length of the encoded service data;

a group-wise interleaving block to interleave the number of the bit groups by using a permutation order which is based on the number of the bit groups,

wherein the number of the bit groups are interleaved by a unit of the bit groups according to the permutation order;

a block interleaving block to interleave the group-wise interleaved bit groups with a set including a number of bit groups which are based on a modulation order,

wherein the block interleaving block further performs:

row-wise writing bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups in rows of the set; and

column-wise reading 1 bit from each row;

a mapper to map the block interleaved service data onto a constellation based on a modulation order;

a frame builder to build at least one signal frame including the mapped block interleaved service data;

a modulator to modulate data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; and

a transmitter to transmit the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

7. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein when the modulation order is Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK), the number of bit groups included in the set is 2.

8. The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the permutation order is determined based on the modulation order and a code rate.

9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the bit groups have a size corresponding to a number of 360 bits.

10. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the block interleaving block interleaves bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups using one of a first interleaving and a second interleaving,

wherein the first interleaving interleaves the bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups by writing the bits in a column direction and reading the bits in a row direction, and

wherein the second interleaving interleaves the bits of the group-wise interleaved bit groups by writing the bits in the row direction and reading the bits in the column direction.
