Abstract:
1. A transmitter for processing a broadcasting signal, the transmitter comprising: a first encoder configured to Bose Chaudhri Hocquenghem (BCH) encode broadcasting data that is carried by a physical path and to Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) encode the BCH encoded broadcasting data; a second encoder configured to BCH encode signaling data and to LDPC encode the BCH encoded signaling data, wherein the LDPC encoded signaling data includes a group identifier field for identifying a group to which a current physical path belongs; a time interleaver configured to time interleave the LDPC encoded broadcasting data; a frame builder configured to assemble the time interleaved broadcasting data and the LDPC encoded signaling data to build a signal frame that includes at least one data slice that includes the time interleaved broadcasting data; and a modulator configured to transmit the broadcasting signal including the signal frame, wherein the signaling data includes bundled information indicating whether the physical path is bundled with another physical path within a broadcasting system; and data of the bundled physical path are de-multiplexed into multiple data slices.
