METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING ADDITIONAL DATA IN DIGITAL TERRESTRIAL BROADCASTING SYSTEM

摘要

A method and an apparatus for transmitting additional data in a digital terrestrial broadcasting system are provided. The apparatus includes: a main signal generating unit channel-coding main data and converting the main data into a main signal; an additional signal generating unit channel-coding additional data and converting the additional data into an additional signal; a mixed signal generating unit generating a mixed signal by coupling the main signal and the additional signal to each other; and a mixed signal transmitting unit modulating the mixed signal and transmitting the modulated mixed signal to a receiver through a transmission antenna, wherein the additional data is additional data requested by a specific user possessing the receiver and the specific user provides information on an additional data transmitter.
