Abstract

Methods and apparatus for transmitting and receiving broadcast signals are provided. The method for transmitting a broadcast signal includes encoding mobile data for forward error correction (FEC), encoding signaling data, forming data groups including the encoded mobile data and the encoded signaling data and transmitting a signal frame that includes the data groups.

Claims (42)

1. A method for processing broadcast data in a digital transmitter, the method comprising:

generating a broadcast signal,

wherein the broadcast signal includes first signaling data, second signaling data and service data for a service, further the service data is carried via at least one collection of at least one data channel,

wherein the first signaling data includes first information for identifying the at least one collection of the at least one data channel,

wherein the at least one collection includes a service signaling channel carrying the second signaling data, further the second signaling data is used to provide service acquisition information for the service,

wherein the service signaling channel is a dedicated channel identified by a pre-assigned value,

wherein the second signaling data includes second information for identifying the service, and third information for indicating whether the service is active or inactive; and

transmitting the broadcast signal.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first signaling data further includes fourth information for identifying the service, and wherein the fourth information included in the first signaling data and the second information included in the second signaling data have the same value.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second signaling data includes name information for the service.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the service data corresponds to audio or video component that makes up the service.

5. A digital transmitter for processing broadcast data, the digital transmitter comprising:

a processor configured to generate a broadcast signal,

wherein the broadcast signal includes first signaling data, second signaling data and service data for a service, further the service data is carried via at least one collection of at least one data channel,

wherein the first signaling data includes first information for identifying the at least one collection of the at least one data channel,

wherein the at least one collection includes a service signaling channel carrying the second signaling data, further the second signaling data is used to provide service acquisition information for the service,

wherein the service signaling channel is a dedicated channel identified by a pre-assigned value,

wherein the second signaling data includes second information for identifying the service, and third information for indicating whether the service is active or inactive; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the broadcast signal.

6. The digital transmitter of claim 5 , wherein the first signaling data further includes fourth information for identifying the service, and wherein the fourth information included in the first signaling data and the second information included in the second signaling data have the same value.

7. The digital transmitter of claim 5 , wherein the second signaling data includes name information for the service.

8. The digital transmitter of claim 5 , wherein the service data corresponds to audio or video component that makes up the service.

9. A method for processing broadcast data in a digital receiver, the method comprising:

receiving a broadcast signal including first signaling data, second signaling data and service data for a service, the service data being carried via at least one collection of at least one data channel,

wherein the first signaling data includes first information for identifying the at least one collection of the at least one data channel,

wherein the at least one collection includes a service signaling channel carrying the second signaling data, further the second signaling data is used to provide service acquisition information for the service,

wherein the service signaling channel is a dedicated channel identified by a pre-assigned value, and

wherein the second signaling data includes second information for identifying the service and third information for indicating whether the service is active or inactive; and

processing the service data based on the first signaling data and the second signaling data.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first signaling data further includes fourth information for identifying the service, and wherein the fourth information included in the first signaling data and the second information included in the second signaling data have the same value.

11. The method of claim 9 , wherein the second signaling data includes name information for the service.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the service data corresponds to audio or video component that makes up the service.

13. A digital receiver for processing broadcast data, the digital receiver comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a broadcast signal including first signaling data, second signaling data and service data for a service, the service data being carried via at least one collection of at least one data channel,

wherein the first signaling data includes first information for identifying the at least one collection of the at least one data channel,

wherein the at least one collection includes a service signaling channel carrying the second signaling data, further the second signaling data is used to provide service acquisition information for the service,

wherein the service signaling channel is a dedicated channel identified by a pre-assigned value, and

wherein the second signaling data includes second information for identifying the service and third information for indicating whether the service is active or inactive; and

a processor configured to process the service data based on the first signaling data and the second signaling data.

14. The digital receiver of claim 13 , wherein the first signaling data further includes fourth information for identifying the service, and wherein the fourth information included in the first signaling data and the second information included in the second signaling data have the same value.

15. The digital receiver of claim 13 , wherein the second signaling data includes name information for the service.

16. The digital receiver of claim 13 , wherein the service data corresponds to audio or video component that makes up the service.
