Claim:
1. A method of transmitting a signal associated with a broadcast service, the method comprising: modulating the signal by an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) scheme, the signal carrying a frame that has a plurality of OFDM symbols in a time domain and a plurality of subcarriers in a frequency domain; and transmitting the modulated signal through a physical channel, wherein the frame is composed of an information region and a data region, wherein a part of continuous OFDM symbols in the frame is mapped to the information region for transmission of Layer 1 (L1) information and a remaining part of continuous OFDM symbols in the frame is mapped to the data region for transmission of data for the broadcast service, wherein the information region is located before the data region in the frame, wherein the L1 information includes first information, wherein the first information indicates a change of second information related to the broadcast service, and wherein the L1 information further includes identification information for uniquely identifying a data channel for carrying the broadcast service and allocation information on position of the broadcast service in the frame.
