Abstract:
1. A method for receiving a broadcast signal, the method comprising: receiving the broadcast signal carrying a transmission frame in which a collection of data groups is carried within specific time periods, each of the data groups including known data sequences, signaling information and mobile service data, wherein a plurality of Reed Solomon (RS) frame portions are transmitted in the data groups; demodulating the received broadcast signal; extracting the plurality of portions of the RS frame in order to build an RS frame; decoding the built RS frame; storing decoded mobile service data in a storage medium; displaying a list of programs stored in the storage medium; receiving a selection of at least one program from the displayed list for reproduction; reproducing the selected at least one program, wherein the built RS frame includes RS parity bytes that are added at a bottom of each column of a payload of the RS frame by performing RS encoding for each column, cyclic redundancy checksum (CRC) bytes that are added at a right end of each row of the payload of the RS frame and the mobile service data, wherein a size of a payload of the RS frame is 187 by N bytes, and wherein N corresponds to a length of each row of the RS frame.
