Digital broadcasting system and method of processing data

Abstract

A digital broadcast transmitter includes: a first encoder configured to Forward Error Correction (FEC) encode broadcast service data to add parity data, thereby generating an FEC frame, and divide the FEC frame into a plurality of groups, each of the plurality of groups having a same size; a second encoder configured to encode transmission parameter data; an interleaver configured to interleave data of the plurality of groups; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit the interleaved data and the encoded transmission parameter data, wherein the transmission parameter data include information for identifying a number of the parity data.
