Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and an apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals thereof are disclosed. The apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals, the apparatus comprises an encoder to encode service data, a bit interleaver to interleave the encoded service data, a frame builder to build at least one signal frame including the bit interleaved service data, wherein the at least one signal frame includes a plurality of OFDM symbols, a modulator to modulate data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme and a transmitter to transmit the broadcast signals having the modulated data.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method for transmitting broadcast signals, the method comprising: encoding service data; bit interleaving the encoded service data; building at least one signal frame including the bit interleaved service data, wherein the at least one signal frame includes a plurality of OFDM symbols; modulating data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; and transmitting the broadcast signals having the modulated data. 2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the bit interleaving further includes: parity interleaving parity bits of the encoded service data to spilt into groups; group-wise interleaving the split groups by using a permutation order; and block interleaving the interleaved groups. 3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the permutation order is determined based on a modulation type and a code rate. 4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the block interleaving further includes: writing bits in each group by a row-wise scheme; and reading out 1 bit from each row by a column-wise scheme. 5 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the block interleaving further includes: writing each group by a column-wise scheme; and reading out written bits by a row-wise scheme. 6 . An apparatus for transmitting broadcast signals, the apparatus comprising: an encoder to encode service data; a bit interleaver to interleave the encoded service data; a frame builder to build at least one signal frame including the bit interleaved service data, wherein the at least one signal frame includes a plurality of OFDM symbols; a modulator to modulate data in the built at least one signal frame by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; and a transmitter to transmit the broadcast signals having the modulated data. 7 . The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the bit interleaver further includes: a parity interleaver to interleave parity bits of the encoded service data to spilt into groups; a group-wise interleaver to group-wise interleave the split groups by using a permutation order; and a block interleaver to interleave the group-wise interleaved groups. 8 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the permutation order is determined based on a modulation type and a code rate. 9 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the block interleaver further performs writing bits in each group by a row-wise scheme and reading out 1 bit from each row by a column-wise scheme. 10 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the block interleaver further performs writing each group by a column-wise scheme and reading out written bits by a row-wise scheme.
