Abstract

A method and an apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals thereof are disclosed. The apparatus for receiving broadcast signals, the apparatus comprises a receiver to receive the broadcast signals, a demodulator to demodulate the received broadcast signals by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme, a frame parser to parse a signal frame from the demodulated broadcast signals, wherein the signal frame includes at least one service data, a time deinterleaver to time deinterleave each the service data, wherein the time deinterleaving is performed depending on a number of physical paths for each the service data, a damapper to demap the time deinterleaved data and a decoder to decode the demapped service data.

Claims (30)

1. An apparatus for receiving broadcast signals, the apparatus comprising:

a receiver to receive the broadcast signals;

a demodulator to demodulate the received broadcast signals by an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) scheme;

a frame parser to parse at least one signal frame from the demodulated broadcast signals;

a time deinterleaver to deinterleave service data in the parsed at least one signal frame,

wherein the service data is time deinterleaved according to a time interleaving mode,

wherein when the time interleaving mode is a first mode, the time deinterleaver includes

a convolutional deinterleaver to convolutional deinterleave the service data in the at least one signal frame,

wherein the convolutional deinterleaver generates at least one Time Interleaving (TI) block from the at least one signal frame based on interleaving units;

a block deinterleaver to block deinterleave the at least one TI block of the convolutional deinterleaved at least one signal frame,

wherein at least one virtual Forward Error Correction (FEC) block is ahead of FEC blocks in the at least one TI block;

a demapper to demap the time deinterleaved service data; and

a decoder to decode the demapped service data,

wherein the broadcast signals further include signaling information indicating the time interleaving mode.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein when the time interleaving mode is a second mode the time deinterleaver includes a convolutional deinterleaver to convolutional deinterleave the service data by using delay elements.

3. A method for receiving broadcast signals, the method comprising:

receiving the broadcast signals;

demodulating the received broadcast signals by an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) scheme;

frame parsing at least one signal frame from the demodulated broadcast signals;

time deinterleaving service data in the parsed at least one signal frame,

wherein the service data is time deinterleaved according to a time interleaving mode,

wherein when the time interleaving mode is a first mode, the time deinterleaving includes

convolutional deinterleaving the service data in the at least one signal frame,

wherein the convolutional deinterleaving generates at least one Time Interleaving (TI) block from the at least one signal frame based on interleaving units;

block deinterleaving the at least one TI block of the convolutional deinterleaved at least one signal frame,

wherein at least one virtual Forward Error Correction (FEC) block is ahead of FEC blocks in the at least one TI block;

demapping the time deinterleaved service data; and

decoding the demapped service data,

wherein the broadcast signals further include signaling information indicating the time interleaving mode.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein when the time interleaving mode is a second mode the time deinterleaving includes a convolutional deinterleaving the service data by using delay elements.
