Sistemi radiodifuzije - Digitalna zvokovna radiodifuzija (DAB) za mobilne, prenosne in fiksne sprejemnike

Ta dokument določa standard radiodifuzije za sistem digitalne zvokovne radiodifuzije (DAB), zasnovan za zagotavljanje visoko kakovostnih digitalnih zvokovnih in video programov ter podatkovnih storitev za mobilni, prenosni in fiksni sprejem za zemeljske oddajnike v frekvenčnih pasovih VHF ter za distribucijo prek kabelskih omrežij. Sistem digitalne zvokovne radiodifuzije je zasnovan za zagotavljanje spektra in energijsko učinkovitih tehnik pri načrtovanju omrežij za zemeljske oddajnike. To je poznano kot enofrekvenčno omrežje (SFN) in tehnika zapolnjevanja vrzeli. Sistem digitalne zvokovne radiodifuzije izpolnjuje zahteve za skupno rabo z drugimi radiokomunikacijskimi storitvami.
Ta dokument določa prenosni signal sistema digitalne zvokovne radiodifuzije. Vključuje kodirne algoritme za multipleksiranje zvokovnih in video programov ter podatkovnih storitev, kodiranje kanalov in modulacijo. Predviden je tudi prenos dodatnih podatkovnih storitev, ki so lahko povezane s programom ali pa ne, in sicer v okviru skupne zmogljivosti sistema. Ta dokument podaja informacije o sistemski konfiguraciji, kar zajema podatke o kompletih, storitvah, komponentah storitev in njihovo povezovanje. Ta dokument opisuje nominalne značilnosti oddanega signala digitalne zvokovne radiodifuzije. Vidiki, povezani z zasnovo sprejemnika, ne spadajo na področje uporabe tega dokumenta.
