The human ear does not detect sounds that are below a certain minimum volume. Data below the absolute threshold of hearing can therefore be filtered out. This is possible because the digital datastream also saves the relative volume of each unit of information to other units.

Audio Stream Audio Streams in Digital Radio are continuous datastreams that contain MPEG 1 Audio Layer 2 Frames and therefore represent acoustic information. They are used to broadcast normal radio programmes, which you can listen to on the receiver side. Digital Radio uses the MUSICAM format with two MPEG-compliant PADs for additional information. -
