General information
About Digital Audio Broadcasting
(DAB)
DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcast-
ing radio via a network of terrestrial transmit-
ters. It provides listeners with more choice
and information delivered in crystal clear,
crackle-free sound quality.
- The technology allows the receiver to lock
on to the strongest signal it can find.
- With DAB digital stations, there are no fre-
quencies to remember, and sets are tuned by
station name, so there is no re-tuning on the
move.
What is a multiplex?
Digital radio operation is made up of a single
block of frequencies called a multiplex. Each
multiplex works within a frequency spec-
trum, such as Band III for DAB broadcasts.
Helpful hints:
–
You will receive DAB stations only within your
DAB transmission area.
DAB Broadcasters and DLS
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex opera-
tor) also provides text and audio data ser-
vices. Some programmes are supported by
Dynamic Label Segments (DLS).This is data
which you can read as scrolling text on your
DAB radio display. Some stations transmit the
latest news, travel, and weather, what's on
now and next, website addresses and phone
numbers.
