Abstract

A receiving system and a method of processing broadcast signals in the receiving system are disclosed. The receiving system includes a tuner, a known sequence detector, a carrier recovery unit, a baseband processor, and a channel equalizer. The tuner receives a broadcast signal of a passband including a data group. Herein, the data group comprises mobile service data, a plurality of known data sequences, and signaling data. The known sequence detector estimates an initial frequency offset and detects a position of each known data sequence based on the known data sequence having the first data pattern. The carrier recovery unit acquires an initial frequency synchronization using the initial frequency offset estimated by the known sequence detector and estimates a residual frequency offset based upon the known data sequences having the second data pattern so as to perform carrier recovery. The baseband processor performs complex multiplication between the received broadcast signal and an output of the carrier recovery unit, thereby converting the passband broadcast signal to a baseband broadcast signal.
