(54) Method for Providing Area-Based Broadcasting Service Using Digital Mutlimedia Broadcasting, and Apparatus and Method for Receiving Area-Based Broadcasting Service according to the same


(57) Disclosed are a method for providing an area-based broadcasting service based on Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB), and an apparatus and method for receiving the area-based broadcasting service according to the same by dividing service data for each relevant area, which may be a wide area or a local area, and transmitting the divided data through different sub-channels of a Main Service Channel (MSC). Accordingly, a terminal of a reception part receives only service data associated with the position of the terminal and provides the received data to a user to provide the area-based broadcasting service. The method for providing the area-based broadcasting service using DMB includes receiving a DMB transmission frame broadcasted from a DMB transmission server and a middle step to insert local area service-related data in the received DMB transmission frame to retransmit the frame.
