An apparatus and a method for receiving broadcasting services in a Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) system, which provide convenience to users. Such a DMB receiving apparatus includes an Radio Frequency (RF) receiver unit for receiving RF signals, a modem receiver for measuring energy values of the pilot signal to perform initial synchronization, a controller unit for comparing the energy values with a predetermined threshold value to derive a broadcasting channel situation, and a display unit for indicating the broadcasting channel status derived from the controller unit. The receiving apparatus and method enables a terminal of the DMB system to minimize power consumption by checking the current electric field situation to stop unnecessary operations. Also, the user is informed of the current electric field status by using only simple initial synchronization, thereby minimizing an inconvenience in which the user watches indistinct broadcasting in an unfavorable channel environment. |
