It is designed forexcellent mobile reception, is highly robust against multipathreception and allows the use of single frequency networks (SFN) forhigh frequency efficiency. In addition to several high-quality digital audio services, DAB isable to transmit programme associated data and a host of other dataservices including travel and traffic information and still andmoving pictures. Dynamic multiplex management on the network sideopens up new possibilities for flexible programming. Written in anaccessible style, Digital Audio Broadcasting provides an excellentguide for developers in industry, planning engineers together withbroadcasters, network providers and service and content providers.For students and those wishing to get to grips with the newconcepts of digital broadcasting it will serve as a comprehensiveintroduction to the field. - Explains the basic concepts of DAB including audio processing,data transmission and modulation schemes and how the system can beimplemented and operated - Features new broadcasting components such as perceptual audiocoding (MPEG-1 and MPEG-2), OFDM channel coding and modulation,multiplex management (STI) and data transmission protocols(MOT) - Focuses on the practical implications for service provision andcoverage planning and the new infrastructure required in studiosand broadcasting houses for multiplex and network management - Provides an insight into current receiver development strategies
