11 About DAB

What is Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB)?

DAB digital radio is a new way of broadcasting 

radio via a network of terrestrial transmitters. 

It provides listeners with more choice and 

information delivered in crystal clear, crackle-

free sound quality.

– The technology allows the receiver to lock on 

to the strongest signal it can find.

– With DAB digital stations there are no 

frequencies to remember, and sets are tuned 

by station name, so there is no returning on the 

move.

 

What is DAB+?

DAB+ is based on the original DAB standard 

but uses a more efficient audio codec. Whereas

DAB uses MPEG Audio Layer II (better 

known as MP2), DAB+ uses HE-AAC v2 

(better known as MP4 or AAC+). This allows 

equivalent or better subjective audio quality to 

be broadcast at lower bit rates. The increased 

efficiency offers benefits for Governments and

Regulators (even better spectrum efficiency),

broadcasters (lower costs per station) and 

consumers (a wider choice of stations).

DAB+ is designed to provide the same 

functionality as the original DAB radio services 

including services following (e.g. to the same 

service on another DAB ensemble or its FM 

simulcast), traffic announcements and PAD

multimedia data (e.g. dynamic labels such 

as title artist information or news headlines; 

complementary graphics and images etc.)

 

What is a multiplex?

Digital radio operation is made up of a single 

block of frequencies called a multiplex. Each 

multiplex works within a frequency spectrum, 

such as Band III for DAB broadcasts.
