Abstract
Audio Broadcasting describes the technology that uses digital modulation techniques for transmission on radio frequencies. The most commonly referenced form of digital
radio is the digital audio broadcasting (DAB) although it also includes digital TV broadcasting, two-way wireless radio using digital signals and Radio Communications via the internet. This paper specifically examines digital audio broadcasting; its development, modulation, coding and time interleaving, synchronisation, frame structure etc. The paper also looks at the specific drawbacks of DAB especially in terms of reception quality in certain conditions and transmission costs. A comparison is drawn with the existing AM/FM broadcast. It will also consider developments in the new DAB+ format and draws a considered conclusion on the status quo and future of this form of audio broadcast nationally in UK and internationally.
