APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING DIGITAL MULTIMEDIA BROADCASTING SIGNALS

摘要

An apparatus and method for receiving a multimedia broadcasting service in a mobile communication system including a satellite digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) reception system and a terrestrial DMB reception system. In the apparatus, a satellite DMB modem block demodulates a satellite broadcast signal received from the satellite DMB system. A terrestrial DMB modem block, sharing at least one function block with the satellite DMB modem block, demodulates a terrestrial broadcast signal received from the terrestrial DMB system. A Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) decoder separately decodes MPEG transport streams (TSs) for the satellite broadcast signal and the terrestrial broadcast signal.
