Abstract

A transmitting apparatus is provided. The transmitting apparatus includes: a baseband packet (BBP) generator configured to generate a BBP including a header and payload data; a frame generator configured to generate a frame including the BBP; a signal processor configured to signal-process the generated frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the signal-processed frame. The header includes information about a type of the payload data, whether an additional header exists, a length of the payload data, and a Least Significant Bit (LSB) of the length of the payload data. Therefore, various types of data are mapped on a physical layer based on information included in the header, and data processing efficiency is improved.

Claims (17)

1. A transmitting apparatus comprising:

a packet generator configured to generate a packet comprising a header and a payload based on input data; and

a signal processor configured to signal-process the packet,

wherein a base header included in the header comprises a first field indicating a packet type of the input data and a second field which is set to a first value indicating that there is an additional header or a second value indicating that the additional header does not exist, and

wherein, when the second field is set to the first value, the base header comprises a field indicating least significant bits (LSBs) of a length of the payload, and the additional header comprises a field indicating most significant bits (MSBs) of the length of the payload.

2. The transmitting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the additional header comprises information about whether information indicating an address of a physical layer exists, whether upper layer data is transmitted, and whether the extension header exists.

3. The transmitting apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the additional header further comprises at least one of information about the address of the physical layer and an identification (ID) for identifying the upper layer data.

4. The transmitting apparatus of claim 3 , wherein in response to the payload comprising a preset type of data, the extension header comprises information for processing the preset type of data.

5. A receiving apparatus comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a packet comprising a header and a payload;

an information extractor configured to extract a header from the received packet; and

a signal processor configured to signal-process the payload comprised in the packet based on the extracted header,

wherein a base header included in the header comprises a first field indicating a packet type of the input data and a second field which is set to a first value indicating that there is an additional header or a second value indicating that the additional header does not exist, and

wherein, when the second field is set to the first value, the base header comprises a field indicating least significant bits (LSBs) of a length of the payload, and the additional header comprises a field indicating most significant bits (MSBs) of the length of the payload.

6. The receiving apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the additional header comprises information about whether information indicating an address of a physical layer exists, whether upper layer data is transmitted, and whether the extension header exists.

7. The receiving apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the additional header further comprises at least one of the address of the physical layer and an identification (ID) for identifying the upper layer data.

8. The receiving apparatus of claim 7 , wherein in response to the payload comprising a preset type of data, the extension header comprises information for processing the preset type of data.
