Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for transmitting digital broadcasting signals and a method and apparatus for receiving digital broadcasting signals that divide a stream into a plurality of layers according to characteristics of the stream, that independently process the layers, and that dynamically allocate frequencies on the basis of the processed signals. A method of transmitting digital broadcasting signals includes dividing a single stream into a plurality of layers according to characteristics of the stream; performing encoding and mapping on each of the layers; and dynamically allocating a frequency to each of the layers on the basis of the number of symbols for each layer.
