Abstract:
1. A method of processing a digital broadcast signal, the method comprising: generating either one Reed-Solomon (RS) frame or two RS frames, each RS frame a 2-dimensional data frame including mobile service data, wherein the one RS frame is generated when an RS frame mode is a single frame mode that indicates there is a first RS frame for a data group and the two RS frames are generated when the RS frame mode is a dual frame mode that indicates there is a second RS frame for a first portion of a data group and a third RS frame for a second portion of the data group; encoding signaling data; forming the data group including the mobile service data and the encoded signaling data, wherein the data group further includes 118 data packets and K data packets, wherein K is an integer scalable between 0 and 38, wherein the data group further includes a scalable data region including mobile service data included in the K data packets, and wherein the scalable data region carries mobile service data included in the first RS frame when the RS frame mode is the single frame mode and carries mobile service data included in the third RS frame when the RS frame mode is the dual frame mode; forming and outputting a plurality of data packets including data in the data group; interleaving data included in the plurality of data packets of the data group; and transmitting the digital broadcast signal including the interleaved data, wherein the signaling data includes information indicating a number of ensembles carrying a collection of services, and wherein each of the generated one RS frame or two RS frames belong to the ensembles.
