12. The receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein
compulsory emergency activation information is transmittable through the digital broadcast signal, and
when the receiving device is in a sleep state and the compulsory emergency activation information is detected, the receiving device is powered on.
13. The receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein the emergency notification control information is transmitted in an XML format.
14. The receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein the emergency notification control information is transmitted in a section format.
15. The receiving device according to claim 1 , wherein the emergency notification control information is used in a first layer that is higher than an IP layer of a protocol used to transmit the digital broadcast signal.
16. The receiving device according to claim 15 , wherein
the digital broadcast signal is used in the first layer, and used to transmit tuning control information, and
the tuning control information includes at least network identification information, stream identification information, and service identification information.
17. The receiving device according to claim 16 , wherein the digital broadcast signal is used in a second layer that is higher than the IP layer, and used to transmit component control information including at least information related to a component configuring a certain service.
