About DAB/DAB+/DMB
What is DAB?
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) is the third generation broadcasting
technology following the traditional analog technologies such as FM.
The advantages of DAB include being more robust with regard to noise,
interference, instability, etc., during radio signal transmission. Also, it
can provide stereo CD-quality sound and digital information, and it can
resist multipath interference guaranteeing high-quality reception for
fixed, portable and mobile devices.
What is DAB+?
WorldDMB, the organisation in charge of the DAB standards,
announced DAB+, a major upgrade to the DAB standard in 2006, when
the HE-AAC v2 audio codec (also known as eAAC+) was adopted. The
new standard, which is called DAB+, has also adopted the MPEG
Surround audio format and stronger error correction coding in the form
of Reed-Solomon coding. DAB+ has been standardised as ETSI TS 102
563.
What is DMB?
DMB (Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) is a future-orientated, new
generation broadcasting system based on DAB (Digital Audio
Broadcasting). Where DAB upgraded the traditional analog sound of FM
to a CD-quality level, DMB advances simple sound broadcasting to the
multimedia arena, striving to provide a visual service while transmitting
high-quality sound. Users include entertainment programmes,
intellectual traffic navigation, electronic newspapers and magazines,
information provided by financial markets, the Internet, and integrated
city information. It can be widely used by mobile carriers such as buses,
taxis, light railways, underground railways, trains, ferries, airports, and
by all kinds of people in the home and office.
