Channel bonding is realized in a receiving apparatus that receives terrestrial digital broadcasting compliant with an ATSC 3.0 standard. A first receiving circuit receives a first frame obtained by encoding first packets within a stream containing the first packets and second packets via a first frequency channel. A second receiving circuit receives a second frame obtained by encoding the second packets via a second frequency channel different from the first frequency channel. A first integrated circuit decodes the first frame and acquires the first packets. The second integrated circuit performs processing for decoding the second frame and acquiring the second packets and processing for bonding the first packets and the second packets together and reconstructing the stream.

Receiving apparatus, communication system, and receiving apparatus control method

[Problem] Provided is a demodulation circuit, a processing method, and a processing device which are capable of improving robustness in demodulating a broadcast signal. [Solution] Provided is a demodulation circuit including a demodulation unit that demodulates a broadcast signal received by a reception circuit that receives the broadcast signal, an error correction processing unit that performs an error correction on a first packet obtained by demodulation, and a packet processing unit that extracts a second packet from the first packet on which an error correction has been performed, in which when an error correction is unsuccessfully performed on the first packet that was to be processed immediately before, the packet processing unit extracts the second packet from the first packet to be processed based on pointer information included in the first packet to be processed.

Demodulation circuit, processing method, and processing device

Channel bonding is realized in a receiving apparatus that receives terrestrial digital broadcasting compliant with an ATSC 3.0 Standard. A receiving section selects any one of a plurality of frequency channels as a bonding source channel and receives a frame from the bonding source channel. A control section performs processing for obtaining one frequency channel in which packets are to be bonded with the bonding source channel among the plurality of frequency channel as a bonding destination channel on the basis of the frame and processing for controlling the receiving section to newly receive a frame from the bonding destination channel. A decoding section decodes the frame and acquires the packets. A bonding section bonds together the packets corresponding to the bonding source channel and the packets corresponding to the bonding destination channel.
