Abstract: A method and apparatus for transmitting a broadcast signal are provided. Data of data packets is encoded to add first parity data to the data packets. The data packets include broadcast data and signaling data for a service. The signaling data includes type information indicating a type of the service and channel information of the service. Information for acquisition of the signaling data is predefined. The encoded data is block interleaved. The block-interleaved data is convolutional interleaved. Transmission parameters are first encoded for signaling the broadcast data to add second parity data to the transmission parameters, and the first-encoded transmission parameters are second encoded at a code rate. A frame including the convolutional interleaved data and the second-encoded transmission parameters is built. The broadcast signal including the frame is transmitted. The transmission parameters include information for identifying a number of the first parity data.

Abstract: A broadcast receiving system capable of receiving mobile broadcast data and a method for processing broadcast signals are disclosed. The broadcast receiving system includes a first receiving unit, a second receiving unit, a known sequence detector, a equalizer, and a display unit. The first receiving unit receives a first broadcast signal including first mobile broadcast service data and first main broadcast service data. The second receiving unit receives a second broadcast signal including second mobile broadcast service data and second main broadcast service data. The known sequence detector detects at least one of known data included in the received first broadcast signal and known data included in the received second broadcast signal. The channel equalizer uses the detected known data, thereby channel-equalizing the received first and second mobile broadcast service data corresponding to the detected known data.
