Abstract
Digital broadcasting content is viewed by a user, such as through a portable terminal having a broadcasting receiver configured to receive digital broadcasting content. An original travel path is obtained based on a travel destination. The portable terminal determines if a broadcasting blind zone exists relative to the original travel path. If the broadcasting blind zone or zones exist, the portable terminal provides navigation instructions for a modified travel path which avoids the broadcasting blind zones.
