Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a signal transceiving apparatus and signal transceiving method. The present invention provides a signal transmitting method for transmitting a stream generated by multiplexing signaling information, encoded base layer video data, and enhancement video data, which can configure scalable WCG video data, and provides a signal receiving method for outputting a legacy LED video or a WCG video on the basis of the signaling information decoded by receiving the stream.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A signal transmission method comprising: encoding base layer video data and enhancement video data for providing a scalable wide color gamut (WCG) video service; generating signaling information for rendering scalable WCG video data of the scalable WCG video service; outputting a stream obtained by multiplexing the generated signaling information, the encoded base layer video data and the encoded enhancement video data; and transmitting the multiplexed stream. 2 . The signal transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the signaling information includes information for identifying the scalable WCG video service. 3 . The signal transmission method according to claim 1 , wherein the encoded base layer video data or the encoded enhancement video data includes metadata having color gamut mapping information, color bit depth information or color mapping information for rendering the scalable WCG video data. 4 . A signal transmission apparatus comprising: an encoder configured to encode base layer video data and enhancement video data for providing a scalable wide color gamut (WCG) video service; a signaling information encoder configured to encode signaling information for rendering scalable WCG video data of the scalable WCG video service; a multiplexer configured to output a stream obtained by multiplexing the generated signaling information, the encoded base layer video data and the encoded enhancement video data; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the multiplexed stream. 5 . The signal transmission apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the signaling information includes information for identifying the scalable WCG video service. 6 . The signal transmission apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the encoded base layer video data or the encoded enhancement video data includes metadata having color gamut mapping information, color bit depth information or color mapping information for rendering the scalable WCG video data. 7 . A signal reception method comprising: receiving a stream including base layer video data and enhancement video data for rendering scalable wide color gamut (WCG) video data of a scalable WCG video service; demultiplexing the received stream and outputting video data including the base layer video data and the enhancement video data and signaling information; decoding the demultiplexed signaling information; and decoding the base layer video data and/or the enhancement layer video data based on the decoded signaling information and outputting legacy UHD video or WCG video. 8 . The signal reception method according to claim 7 , wherein the signaling information includes information for identifying the scalable WCG video service. 9 . The signal reception method according to claim 7 , wherein the base layer video data or the enhancement layer video data includes metadata having color gamut mapping information, color bit depth information or color mapping information for rendering the scalable WCG video service data. 10 . The signal reception method according to claim 9 , wherein the WCG video data is rendered by color gamut mapping the base layer video data using the color gamut mapping information or upscaling a color bit depth of the base layer video data using the color bit depth information, based on the enhancement layer video data. 11 . A signal reception apparatus comprising: a receiver configured to receive a stream including base layer video data and enhancement video data for rendering scalable wide color gamut (WCG) video data of a scalable WCG video service; a demultiplexer configured to demultiplex the received stream and to output video data including the base layer video data and the enhancement layer video data and signaling information; a decoder configured to decode the demultiplexed signaling information; and a video decoder configured to decode the base layer video data and/or the enhancement layer video data based on the decoded signaling information and to output legacy UHD video or WCG video. 12 . The signal reception apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the signaling information includes information for identifying the scalable WCG video service. 13 . The signal reception apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the base layer video data or the enhancement video data includes metadata having color gamut mapping information, color bit depth information or color mapping information for rendering the scalable WCG video service data. 14 . The signal reception apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the WCG video is rendered by color gamut mapping the base layer video data using the color gamut mapping information or upscaling a color bit depth of the base layer video data using the color bit depth information, based on the enhancement layer video data.
