摘要

An apparatus and method for processing channel information in a broadcasting system for transmitting/receiving a cable broadcasting signal are disclosed. In particular, a headend which transmits a broadcasting signal and channel information transmits plural pieces of channel information having different sizes with respect to a single channel to broadcasting receivers. Each of the broadcasting receivers selects most suitable channel information from the plural pieces of channel information of the single channel and displays the selected channel information on a screen for the channel. Accordingly, it is possible to provide users with the channel information which can most accurately represent the contents of the displayed channel.
