Some text descriptions (e.g. menu items, broadcaster information) may be too long to appear in the display. These will then be shown as scrolling text after a few moments. 7 The DAB+ (digital radio) function
DAB+ is a new digital format that delivers crystal-clear sound with no background noise. In contrast to traditional analogue radio stations, DAB+ can be used to broadcast multiple stations on one and the same frequency. These are called ensembles or multiplexes. An ensemble consists of the radio station and several service components or data services that are broadcast by the radio stations. You can find out more at www.digitalradio.de or www.digitalradio.ch, for example. 7.1. Data compression Digital radio exploits aspects of human hearing for data compression. 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 data stream also saves the relative volume of each unit of information to other units. At a specific threshold, the quieter parts of a sound signal are blocked out by the louder parts. All the sound information below the threshold of hearing in a piece of music can be filtered out of the signal being broadcast. This leads to a reduction of data in the data stream to be transmitted, with no detectable sound difference for the listener (HE AAC v2 - process for enhancing the DAB+ encoding process).
With digital radio, audio streams are continuous data streams that contain MPEG-1 Audio Layer II frames and represent acoustic information. They are used to broadcast normal radio programmes, which you can listen to on the receiver. Digital radio not only provides radio with excellent sound quality, but additional information as well. The information may be about the current programme or something else (e.g. news, weather, traffic and tips).
7.2 DAB+ (digital radio) reception
