Abstract: A method includes presetting a sleep mode of a digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) terminal in response to a timing input from a user as to when the sleep mode is to be executed and detecting the arrival of the sleep mode execution time. After detecting the arrival of the sleep mode execution time, it is determined whether a predetermined function relating to a DMB service is being executed. The execution of the sleep mode is suspended until the predetermined function is completed and performed after the completion of the predetermined function.
