Abstract

Disclosed is a broadcasting signal transmission device, a broadcasting signal reception device, and a method for transmitting/receiving a broadcasting signal using same. The method for receiving the broadcasting signal comprises the following steps: receiving the broadcasting signal, which includes a transmission frame, wherein the transmission frame includes a plurality of PLPs, which transmit components that constitute a broadcasting service, first signaling information and second signaling information, which include the signaling information of the plurality of PLPs, a first preamble signal, which has been signaled with a preamble format, and a second preamble signal, which has been signaled with pilot pattern information, wherein one of the plurality of PLPs is a base PLP, which includes a program number that corresponds to the broadcasting service and program map table information, which has been signaled with identifying information for each of the PLPs; demodulating the broadcasting signal based on the first and the second preamble signals; FEC decoding the demodulated broadcasting signal; and identifying a PLP group that includes the plurality of PLP from the FEC decoded broadcasting signal based on the first and the second signaling information, decoding at least one PLP of the identified PLP group, and providing the broadcasting service.

Claims (39)

1. A method for transmitting broadcast signals by a broadcast signal transmitter, the method comprising:

encoding Physical Layer Pipe (PLP) data carried in each of a plurality of Physical Layer Pipes (PLPs), wherein one of the PLPs carries at least one broadcast service component of a service;

interleaving the encoded PLP data;

building a signal frame including the interleaved PLP data;

modulating data of the built signal frame by an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) scheme; and

transmitting the broadcast signals including the modulated data of the signal frame,

wherein the broadcast signals further include first signaling information including service identification (ID) information and service name information, and

wherein the broadcast signals further include second signaling information including mapping information between ID information for the PLPs and internet protocol (IP) addresses of the service described in the first signaling information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signaling information is transported in IP packets and the first signaling information further includes information for receiving an Electronic Service Guide (ESG).

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

an encoder to encode Physical Layer Pipe (PLP) data carried in each of a plurality of Physical Layer Pipes (PLPs), wherein one of the PLPs carries at least one broadcast service component of a service;

an interleaver to interleave the encoded PLP data;

a frame builder to build a signal frame including the interleaved PLP data,

an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) modulator to modulate data of the built signal frame by an OFDM scheme; and

a transmitter to transmit the broadcast signals including the modulated data of the signal frame,

wherein the broadcast signals further include first signaling information including service identification (ID) information and service name information, and

wherein the broadcast signals further include second signaling information including mapping information between ID information for the PLPs and internet protocol (IP) addresses of the service described in the first signaling information.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the first signaling information is transported in IP packets and the first signaling information further includes information for receiving an Electronic Service Guide (ESG).

5. A method for receiving broadcast signals by a broadcast signal receiver, the method comprising:

receiving the broadcast signals;

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

obtaining a signal frame in the demodulated broadcast signals,

wherein the signal frame includes Physical Layer Pipe (PLP) data carried in each of a plurality of PLPs;

deinterleaving the PLP data in the signal frame; and

decoding the deinterleaved PLP data,

wherein one of the PLPs carries at least one broadcast service component of a service,

wherein the broadcast signals include first signaling information including service identification (ID) information and service name information, and

wherein the broadcast signals further include second signaling information including mapping information between ID information for the PLPs and internet protocol (IP) addresses of the service described in the first signaling information.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first signaling information is transported in IP packets and the first signaling information further includes information for receiving an Electronic Service Guide (ESG).

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

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

a parser to obtain a signal frame in the demodulated broadcast signals,

wherein the signal frame includes Physical Layer Pipe (PLP) data carried in each of a plurality of PLPs;

a deinterleaver to deinterleave the PLP data in the signal frame; and

a decoder to decode the deinterleaved PLP data,

wherein one of the PLPs carries at least one broadcast service component of a service,

wherein the broadcast signals include first signaling information including service identification (ID) information and service name information, and

wherein the broadcast signals further include second signaling information including mapping information between ID information for the PLPs and internet protocol (IP) addresses of the service described in the first signaling information.

8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the first signaling information is transported in IP packets and the first signaling information further includes information for receiving an Electronic Service Guide (ESG).
