A display controlling method for a broadcast receiving apparatus allowed to receive IP simultaneous broadcasting of a 4K broadcasting service via a communication transmission line, in which simultaneous broadcasting of the 4K broadcasting service and a 2K broadcasting service is executed by a broadcasting wave, is configured to: receive and demodulate the 4K broadcasting service, and display a broadcasting program of the 4K broadcasting service; and select and execute one display switching process of first and second display switching processes in accordance with priority order in a case where a defect occurs in reception, demodulation, or display of the 4K broadcasting service, the 2K broadcasting service being received and demodulated to display a broadcasting program of the 2K broadcasting service in the first display switching process, the IP simultaneous broadcasting being received and demodulated to display a program of the IP simultaneous broadcasting in the second display switching process.

The present technology relates to a reception apparatus, a reception method, a transmission apparatus, and a transmission method, by which channel selection information can be acquired more efficiently. Provided is a reception apparatus, including: a reception unit that receives a broadcast wave of digital broadcasting using an IP (Internet Protocol) transmission system; a communication unit that receives first signaling information for acquiring broadcast content transmitted by the broadcast wave through communication with a server via a network; an acquisition unit that acquires, on the basis of the first signaling information, a physical parameter used in a physical layer in a hierarchy of a protocol of the IP transmission system; and a control unit that controls, on the basis of the physical parameter, operations of respective units that perform channel selection processing. The present technology is applicable to a portable receiver that is movable, for example.

The present technology relates to a receiver for efficiently acquiring a component configuring a service, a reception method, a transmitter, and a transmission method. The receiver acquires first signaling data distributed on a broadcast wave of digital broadcasting in an IP transmission system, acquires broadcast signaling data as second signaling data, acquires communication signaling data as the second signaling data when flag information included in the broadcast signaling data indicates that the communication signaling data is provided from a server over the Internet together with the broadcast signaling data, and connects to a stream of a broadcast component or a stream of a communication component thereby to control reproduction of the component on the basis of at least one of the broadcast signaling data and the communication signaling data. The present technology is applicable to TV receivers, for example.

Techniques are described for expanding and/or improving the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 television protocol in robustly delivering the next generation broadcast television services. In a boundary region between first and second broadcast stations in which a receiver can pick up signals from both stations, a primary tuner receiving signals from plural antennae presents a demanded service while a secondary tuner uses a single antenna to scan for duplicate transmissions of the service, with handing off between the tuners being effected between scanning and service presentation.

The present technology relates to a reception device, a transmission device, and a data processing method that enable a flexible operation of a service using an application that accompanies content.

A reception device includes: a reception unit that receives content; an acquisition unit that acquires an application in accordance with acquisition source information indicating an acquisition source of the application accompanying the content, the acquisition source information being included in control information transmitted together with the content; and a control unit that instantly starts the acquired application. The present technology can be applied to a television set capable of receiving digital broadcasts, for example.

Content synchronization with over-the-air radio transmissions captures user engagement and telemetry data. User engagement data creates a closed-loop feedback with over-the-air content and is tracked. User engagement and telemetry data feeds machine learning algorithms for radio station advertising effectiveness and programming refinement. User telemetry data identifies the listener radio receiving device. Machine learning applied to over-the-air advertising content categorizes ads for correlation with user behavior profile and ad effectiveness. Prediction models predict listener demographics and user engagement with advertising content in anonymous and registered mode. Over-the-air advertisements are synchronized with ad content provided to broadcast listeners on an electronic user device. Ad content may be listed, searched, and acted on by telephone, email, website click-through, including special ads and coupons targeted to users based on telemetry and user profile and behavior.

When automatically switching from presenting a service on a first frequency to a second frequency such as when a mobile receiver is moving through a boundary region between two broadcasters, the current broadcaster application is notified and depending on the context, may continue executing or send data to the new broadcaster application.
