DAB
DAB stands for digital audio broadcasting. It is a new form
of radio that is broadcast digitally. Unlike regular analogue
broadcasting, digital radio deteriorates less, and is thus
able to provide quality sound close to that of a disc.
Bands
There are two types of DAB bands, “BAND III” (Receivable
in this unit) and “L BAND” (Not broadcast in the United
Kingdom, and not receivable on this unit).
Frequencies
There are 41 frequencies on BAND III. Among those
frequencies, 7 are used in the United Kingdom (current as
of March, 2009).
Ensemble, station and service
The number of stations that make up one frequency differ
between DAB and analogue radio. Analogue stations all
broadcast on different frequencies, even if it is the same
company doing the broadcasting. With DAB however, it is
possible to broadcast a number of stations on the same
frequency.
In DAB terminology, a group of stations on the same
frequency is called an ensemble.
As shown in the diagram, an ensemble consists of a group
of stations which have primary services, they can also
have secondary services. This means, for example, that
commentary on sports events from different areas can all
be broadcast at once.
