Apparatus and method for transceiving broadcast signal

A method for transmitting a broadcast signal, the method comprising:

• generating Diff information by comparing an XML template and an XML signaling instance of service layer signaling information for one or more services of the broadcast signal,
• the Diff information represents a difference between the XML template and the XML signaling instance, the XML template is pre-shared between a transmission system and a reception system through HTTP(S) over the broadband,
• the Diff information is encapsulated in metadataEnvelope;
• and
• transmitting the broadcast signal carrying one or more components delivered via a ROUTE (Real-Time Object Delivery over Unidirectional Transport) protocol and service list information for the one or more services, wherein the service list information includes:
• first URL (Uniform Resource Locator) signaling information indicating a URL for acquiring a first ESG (Electronic Service Guide) or a service layer signaling file for all services when the first ESG or the first service layer signaling file is available via a broadband,
• the first URL signaling information is used for Diff information transmitted via the broadband,
• the service list information includes information for a service identified by a service ID, the information for the service identified by the service ID includes:
• capability information indicating capability required for processing of the service,
• broadcast signaling location information including address information required for acquiring service layer signaling information for the service, and
• second URL signaling information indicating a URL for acquiring a second ESG or a second service layer signaling file for the service when the second ESG or the second service layer signaling file is available via the broadband.

A device for transmitting a broadcast signal, the device comprising:

• a Diff generator configured to generate Diff information by comparing an XML template and an XML signaling instance of service layer signaling information for one or more services of the broadcast signal,
• the Diff information represents a difference between the XML template and the XML signaling instance, the XML template is pre-shared between a transmission system and a reception system through HTTP(S) over the broadband,
• the Diff information is encapsulated in metadataEnvelope;
• and
• a transmitter configured to transmit the broadcast signal carrying one or more components delivered via a ROUTE (Real-Time Object Delivery over Unidirectional Transport) protocol and service list information for the one or more services, wherein the service list information includes:
• first URL (Uniform Resource Locator) signaling information indicating a URL for acquiring a first ESG (Electronic Service Guide) or a service layer signaling file for all services when the first ESG or the first service layer signaling file is available via a broadband,
• the first URL signaling information is used for Diff information transmitted via the broadband,
• the service list information includes information for a service identified by a service ID, the information for the service identified by the service ID includes:
• capability information indicating capability required for processing of the service,
• broadcast signaling location information including address information required for acquiring service layer signaling information for the service, and
• second URL signaling information indicating a URL for acquiring a second ESG or a second service layer signaling file for the service when the second ESG or the second service layer signaling file is available via the broadband.

A method for receiving a broadcast signal, the method comprising:

• the service list information includes information for a service identified by a service ID, the information for the service identified by the service ID includes:
• capability information indicating capability required for processing of the service,
• broadcast signaling location information including address information required for acquiring service layer signaling information for the service, and
• second URL signaling information indicating a URL for acquiring a second ESG or a second service layer signaling file for the service when the second ESG or the second service layer signaling file is available via the broadband;
• and
• recovering an XML signaling instance of the service layer signaling information for one or more services of the broadcast signal by applying Diff information on an XML template, wherein:
