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.
