DIGITAL BROADCAST RECEIVER CONTROLLED BY SCREEN REMOTE CONTROLLER AND SPACE REMOTE CONTROLLER AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A method is described for controlling a television. While receiving and displaying a broadcast signal on a screen of the television, the television receives a first signal from a remote controller and displays a control icon corresponding to the remote controller on the screen. The screen is partitioned into a first and second partition, the first partition being a broadcast signal display region continuing to display the broadcast signal, and the second partition being a television control region that includes television control icons and/or subregions. A second signal is wirelessly received from the remote controller, the second signal representing a movement of the remote controller. The control icon is moved across the screen of the television in response to the movement of the remote controller. A channel list is displayed based on whether the second sign is recognized within or out of the second partition.

1. A method of controlling a television configured to wirelessly communicate with a remote controller, the method comprising the steps of:
while receiving and displaying a broadcast signal on a screen of the television, receiving by the television a first signal from the remote controller and displaying a control icon corresponding to the remote controller on the screen; partitioning the screen of the television into a first and second partition, the first partition being a broadcast signal display region continuing to display the broadcast signal, and the second partition being a television control region that includes television control icons and/or subregions; wirelessly receiving a second signal from the remote controller, the second signal representing a movement of the remote controller; moving the control icon across the screen of the television in response to the movement of the remote controller; when the second signal is recognized within the second partition, controlling the television in response to a function corresponding to the one of the television control icons and/or subregions; and when the second signal is recognized out of the second partition, determining whether at least one character corresponding to a displayed trace exists in a memory, if determined that the character exists in the memory, displaying a channel list including the character, and if determined that the character does not exist in the memory, displaying a previous channel list.
