12 DAB+ radio
12.1 What is DAB+?
DAB+ is a new digital format through which crystal clear sound with no noise can
be heard. In contrast to conventional analogue radio stations, DAB+ can be used to
broadcast multiple stations on one and the same frequency. This is referred to as
an ensemble or multiplex. An ensemble is comprised of the radio station, as well as
several service components or data services which are broadcast individually by the
radio stations. For further information, please visit e.g. www.dabplus.de or
www.dabplus.ch .
