TRANSMISSION DEVICE, RECEIVING DEVICE, AND DATA PROCESSING METHOD

摘要

The present technology pertains to: a transmission device capable of performing PLP band control when one frequency band comprises multiple PLPs; a receiving device; and a data processing method. The transmission device determines the cell number of a component to be transmitted by each PLP, in a manner such that the total cell number for the physical layer frame that contains the multiple PLPs matches the sum of the cell numbers of the multiple PLPs, and then transmits a broadcast stream that contains the physical layer frame. This technology is applicable, for example, to a system for transmitting a broadcast stream that contains a physical layer frame that contains multiple PLPs.
