APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING SERVICE IN BROADCAST-COMMUNICATION CONVERGENCE NETWORK

摘要

The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for receiving a service in a broadcast-communication convergence network. The present specification discloses a method for receiving a service in a broadcast-communication convergence network. The method comprises the steps of: allowing a terrestrial DMB receiving unit to monitor reception quality; requesting a stream through a communication network and receiving the stream through two receiving units, when the reception quality is less than a first reception quality threshold; operating a timer to deal with a temporary reception deterioration state; and switching into the communication network and reproducing content, when the reception quality is less than a second reception quality threshold. According to the configuration of the present invention, a DMB receiving terminal can provide a seamless service even in a DMB broadcast dead zone by tracking reception quality of signals received through a broadcast network and providing a content handover method in accordance with the change of the reception quality.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2014
