Transmitting apparatus, receiving apparatus, and controlling methods, thereof
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.
1. A transmitting apparatus comprising:
a packet generator configured to generate a packet comprising a header and a payload; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the packet,
wherein the header comprises a base header which comprises a first field and a second field;
wherein the first field comprises a value indicating a packet type of input data and,
wherein the second field comprises a first value indicating that there is an additional header or a second value indicating that there is no the additional header,
wherein, if the second field comprises the first value, the base header comprises a third field indicating least significant bits (LSBs) of a length of the payload, and the additional header comprises a fourth field and a fifth field;
wherein the fourth field indicates most significant bits (MSBs) of the length of the payload, and
wherein the fifth field comprises a value indicating whether an extension header is present.
2. The transmitting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the additional header comprises information about whether information indicating an address of a physical layer exists, and whether upper layer data is transmitted.
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 if the payload comprises a predetermined type of data, the additional header comprises information for processing the predetermined type of data.
5. The transmitting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the length of the additional header is one (1)byte.
