Disclosed herein is a method for signal configuration. The method may include evenly dividing, by a signal-bit configuration block, data or information forming signal bits or a signal bitstring and transferring the same to N multiple channels; mapping, by a first spatial path configuration block, a coded bitstring, which is generated through coding and signal processing of the data or information forming the signal bits or the signal bitstring, to cells corresponding to M antennas; and configuring, by a frequency path configuration block, the transmission paths of the cells.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for channel bonding-based multi-antenna signal transmission in a broadcasting system. An apparatus for channel bonding-based multi-antenna signal transmission includes an input formatting unit for converting input data into a Physical Layer Pipe (PLP), a stream partitioning unit for partitioning the PLP into pieces of data to be transmitted to two or more channels, respectively, and two or more transmission units for transmitting the pieces of data resulting from partitioning to corresponding channels through multiple antennas.

Disclosed herein are a content provision method and apparatus using a convergence network. The content provision method may include creating a Quick UDP Internet Connections V1 (QUICV1) path with User Equipment (UE) through a Fifth-Generation (5G) core, when content satisfies a preset condition while the content is being provided to the UE through the QUICV1 path, determining to offload the content through the 5G core, creating an Internet Protocol Security (IPSEC) tunnel with an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) gateway (GW) through the 5G core, generating a QUIC multicast stream, providing QUIC multicast session information to multiple UE devices, and providing the content to multiple UE devices, for which a mode switches from a QUICV1 mode to a QUIC multicast mode, through the ATSC GW.

Disclosed herein are a method for transceiving a broadcast signal using a combination of multiple antenna schemes with layered division multiplexing and an apparatus for the method. A method for receiving a broadcast signal includes generating received signals based on signals that are received through multiple receiving antennas, estimating channels between the receiving antennas and transmitting antennas, restoring a core-layer signal corresponding to the received signals, and restoring an enhanced-layer signal based on a cancellation process, wherein the cancellation process corresponds to the core-layer signal and is separately performed for the individual receiving antennas.

A method for detecting a received signal includes: dividing the entire band of the received signal into N frequency components where N is a natural number larger than one, and deciding a reference frequency component containing a reference frequency as a first priority sensing band among the N frequency components; deciding the sensing priorities of the other (N&#x2212;1) frequency components in such a manner that the sensing priorities spread in both directions from the first priority sensing band; calculating the magnitude of each of the N frequency components in accordance with the decided sensing priorities; comparing the calculated magnitude of the frequency component with a predetermined threshold value; and when the calculated magnitude of the frequency component is larger than the threshold value, determining that the received signal exists.
