Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method and an apparatus for receiving broadcast signals thereof are disclosed. The apparatus for receiving broadcast signals, the apparatus comprises a receiver to receive the broadcast signals, a demodulator to perform demodulation on the received broadcast signals by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme, a frequency de-interleaver to frequency de-interleave the demodulated broadcast signals by using a different interleaving sequence, wherein the different interleaving sequence is used for data corresponding to an OFDM symbol pair or data corresponding to an OFDM symbol according to an FFT size of the demodulation, a frame parser to parse at least one signal frame from the frequency de-interleaved broadcast signals and a decoder to decode service data in the parsed at least one signal frame.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for receiving broadcast signals, the method comprising: receiving the broadcast signals; demodulating the received broadcast signals by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; frequency de-interleaving the demodulated broadcast signals by using a different interleaving sequence, wherein the different interleaving sequence is used for data corresponding to an OFDM symbol pair or data corresponding to an OFDM symbol according to an FFT size of the demodulating; parsing at least one signal frame from the frequency de-interleaved broadcast signals; and decoding service data in the parsed at least one signal frame, wherein the FFT size is one of 8K, 16K and 32K, wherein after the different interleaving sequence is generated based on a toggle bit, a basic interleaving sequence, and a symbol offset, it is checked whether or not an address of the interleaving sequence is within a range of an OFDM symbol, and wherein when the FFT size is 32K, a single permutation is applied to the basic interleaving sequence and when the FFT size is 8K or 16K, different permutations are applied to the basic interleaving sequence. 2. An apparatus for receiving broadcast signals, the apparatus comprising: a receiver to receive the broadcast signals; a demodulator to perform demodulation on the received broadcast signals by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex) scheme; a frequency de-interleaver to frequency de-interleave the demodulated broadcast signals by using a different interleaving sequence, wherein the different interleaving sequence is used for data corresponding to an OFDM symbol pair or data corresponding to an OFDM symbol according to an FFT size of the demodulation; a frame parser to parse at least one signal frame from the frequency de-interleaved broadcast signals; and a decoder to decode service data in the parsed at least one signal frame, wherein the FFT size is one of 8K, 16K and 32K, wherein after the different interleaving sequence is generated based on a toggle bit, a basic interleaving sequence, and a symbol offset, it is checked whether or not an address of the interleaving sequence is within a range of an OFDM symbol, and when the FFT size is 32K, a single permutation is applied to the basic interleaving sequence and when the FFT size is 8K or 16K, different permutations are applied to the basic interleaving sequence.
