The transmitting apparatus includes: a frame generator configured to generate a first frame provided for a fixed terminal and a second frame provided for a mobile terminal, the second frame including common service data commonly provided for the fixed terminal and the mobile terminal; an information inserting unit configured to insert access information on the common service data into a signaling area of the first frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the first and second frames. | 12-25-2014 |
20140376552 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING PACKET IN BROADCASTING SYSTEM - A method and an apparatus for transmitting and receiving packets in a broadcasting system are provided. The present disclosure allocates a padding size field by using padding octets, and thus can increase transmission efficiency. Also, the present disclosure does not restrict the number of padding octets while maintaining compatibility with existing disclosures, and thus can carry out as much padding as desired and as necessary. In addition, the present disclosure variably allocates the padding size field depending on the number P of padding octets, and thus can increase header efficiency. Furthermore, since the number of padded octets in a header is immediately known, the size of an actual payload is known in advance, and thus rapid transmission is possible. | 12-25-2014 |
20150022719 | TRANSMITTING APPARATUS AND RECEIVING APPARATUS, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - Provided are a transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus and methods of transmitting and receiving a data frame. The transmitting apparatus includes: a frame generator configured to cluster a predetermined number of frames to generate a frame cluster, at least one of the frames being generated by mapping data contained in an input stream to at least one signal processing path; an information inserter configured to insert signaling information into a signaling area of the at least one frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the frame with the signaling information inserted therein, wherein the signaling information comprises profile information and duration information about the frame included in the frame cluster. | 01-22-2015 |
20150023249 | TRANSMITTING APPARATUS, RECEIVING APPARATUS AND SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - A transmitting apparatus includes: a baseband packet generator configured to generate a baseband packet including a header and payload data corresponding to an input stream; a frame generator configured to generate a frame including the baseband packet; a signal processor configured to process the generated frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the processed frame, wherein the header includes information about whether a number of null packets deleted when generating the baseband packet is more than a predetermined number, information about a number of packets within the baseband packet, and information about a number of the deleted null packets. | 01-22-2015 |
20150036689 | 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. | 02-05-2015 |
20150049773 | TRANSMITTING APPARATUS, RECEIVING APPARATUS, AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - A data processing method of a transmitting apparatus includes generating a frame including at least one data packet, inserting, using the transmitting apparatus, a header including information associated with a data field occupied by the at least one data packet into the frame, and transmitting, to a receiving apparatus, the frame into which the header is inserted, wherein the information associated with the data field includes first information indicating whether a start byte of a first data packet is included in the data field and second information indicating whether an end byte of a last data packet is included in the data field. | 02-19-2015 |
20150063357 | TRANSMITTING APPARATUS, RECEIVING APPARATUS, AND SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - A transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus and methods of controlling these apparatuses are provided. The transmitting apparatus includes: a baseband packet generator configured to, based on an input stream including a first type stream and a second type stream, generate a baseband packet including a header and payload data corresponding to the first type stream; a frame generator configured to generate a frame including the baseband packet; a signal processor configured to perform signal-processing on the generated frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the signal-processed frame, wherein the header includes a type of the payload data in the baseband packet and the number of the first type stream packets in the baseband packet. | 03-05-2015 |
20150063490 | TRANSMITTING APPARATUS AND RECEIVING APPARATUS AND SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD THEREOF - A transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus and methods of transmission and reception are provided. The transmitting apparatus includes: a frame generator configured to map data contained in an input stream to at least one signal processing path to generate a frame; an information inserter configured to insert signaling information in a signaling region of the frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the frame in which the signaling information is inserted, wherein the signaling information comprises information on an input type of each of the at least one input stream and information on a type of data which is mapped to the at least one signal processing path. | 03-05-2015 |
