DAB+
uses digital compression techniques to transform the source material, i.e. music and speech, into better quality
audio.
Interference free reception
Analogue systems suf
fer from an effect called “multipath distortion”. This is caused because waves do not behave in
an orderly fashion, but bounce and reflect off buildings etc. DAB+ sees this as an advantage and uses the direct and
reflected signals to actually reinforce the end result, allowing for better service most of the time.
Scolling text
Broadcasters can transmit text to your radio. This way you can read the name of the DJ, artist, song title or any other
