Overview

IEC 62106-4:2018 - Radio Data System (RDS) Part 4: Registered code tables - defines the tables and the registration procedure used by the RDS ecosystem for VHF/FM broadcasting (64.0 MHz to 108.0 MHz). Part 4 is one element of the updated IEC 62106 series (Parts 1–6) that replaces IEC 62106:2015 and incorporates the RDS2 extensions to increase data capacity and modernize RDS implementation.

Key technical changes in this edition:

• Provision for carrying RDS on multiple data-streams (RDS2).
• Updated country identification tables (additional countries added).
• Translated PTY (Programme Type) terms added for 20 languages.

Key topics and requirements

• Registered code tables: Standardizes values used across RDS and RDS2 implementations, including:
  • Country identification (Tables for ITU Regions 1–3)
  • Basic and extended RDS character sets
  • Programme Type (PTY) codes and definitions
  • Translated PTY terms (Annex A) for multilingual displays
• Registration procedure:
  • The RDS Forum Office is the registration authority (email: [e-mail]).
  • Applications must specify the target table, the required value, the proposed numeric code and supporting justification.
  • RDS Forum Office checks numbering conflicts and circulates proposals for a 30‑day comment period.
  • If no adverse comments, accepted entries are published (typically within 30 days); disputed entries are considered at the next plenary.
• Normative references: IEC 62106 (all parts) and ISO/IEC 10646 (UCS) for character encoding are required for correct application.

Practical applications

IEC 62106-4:2018 provides authoritative code tables and procedures used to:

• Ensure interoperability between broadcasters, receiver manufacturers, and car infotainment systems.
• Support multilingual PTY displays and consistent content labelling for listeners.

INTRODUCTION
Since the mid-1980s a fascinating development has taken place. Most of the multimedia
applications and standards have been created or redefined significantly. Hardware has
become extremely powerful with dedicated software and middleware. In the mid-1980s,
Internet as well as its protocols did not exist. Navigation systems became affordable in the
late 1990s, and a full range of attractive smartphones now exist. The computing power of all
these new products is comparable with that of the mainframe installations in that era.
Listener expectations have grown faster than the technology. Visual experience is now very
important, like the Internet look and feel. Scrolling text or delivering just audio is nowadays
perceived as insufficient for FM radio, specifically for smartphone users. New types of radio
receivers with added value features are therefore required. RDS has so far proven to be very
successful.
FM radio with RDS is an analogue-digital hybrid system, which is still a valid data
transmission technology and only the applications need adaptation. Now the time has come to
solve the only disadvantage, the lack of sufficient data capacity. With RDS2, the need to
increase the data capacity can be fulfilled.
RDS was introduced in the early 1980s. During the introductory phase in Europe, the car
industry became very involved and that was the start of an extremely successful roll-out.
Shortly afterwards, RDS (RBDS) was launched in the USA.
The RDS Forum has investigated a solution to the issue of limited data capacity. For RDS2,
both sidebands around the RDS 57 kHz subcarrier can be repeated a few times, up to three,
centred on additional subcarriers higher up in the FM multiplex still remaining compatible with
the ITU Recommendations.
The core elements of RDS2 are the additional subcarriers, which will enable a significant
increase of RDS data capacity to be achieved, and then only new additional data applications
will have to be created, using the RDS-ODA feature, which has been part of the RDS standard
IEC 62106 for many years.
In order to update IEC 62106:2015 to the specifications of RDS2, IEC 62106 has been
restructured as follows:
Part 1: Modulation characteristics and baseband coding
Part 2: RDS message format, coding and definition of RDS features
Part 3: Usage and registration of Open Data Applications ODAs
Part 4: Registered code tables
Part 5: Marking of RDS and RDS2 devices
Part 6: Compilation of technical specifications for Open Data Applications in the public domain
The following future parts are planned:
Part 7: RBDS
Part 8: Universal Encoder Communication Protocol UECP
The original specifications of the RDS system have been maintained and the extra
functionalities of RDS2 have been added.
Obsolete or unused functions from the original RDS standard have been deleted.

5 Registered code tables for RDS and RDS2
5.1 Country identification
Tables 1 to 3 are separated into International Telecommunications Union (ITU) regions for
convenience only; they contain Country Identifiers (CI code) and the Extended Country Codes
(ECC) and, for information, the ISO 2-letter country code. The ECC and CI codes are shown
in their hexadecimal format. CI code "0" (hex) is not used.
NOTE Some countries have identified their remote territories with the same country code as the one used for the
mainland. Unless this is changed by the countries concerned, receivers cannot distinguish these areas.

5.2 Basic and extended RDS character sets
Two character coding methods are used in RDS: the basic RDS character set in Table 4 and
Table 5, and UTF-8.
Table 4 contains the basic RDS character set, which shall be used for transmitting
Programme Service name (PS), Programme Type Name (PTYN), and RadioText (RT). Table 5
contains the same basic transmitted RDS character set mapped to non-transmitted UCS-2
equivalents to assist symbol identification
Table 6 contains an extended character set, which shall be used, UTF-8 coded, for long PS
and eRT/eRT+ in countries of the European Broadcasting Area. Even more extended
character coding is possible using UTF-8 coding in conformity with ISO/IEC 10646 for long PS
and eRT/eRT+. Table 6 is provided to help equipment designers to identify character symbols
used by the official languages in countries of the European Broadcasting Area, an area term
defined by the ITU (all European countries and those bordering the Mediterranean Sea).

NOTE 1 DAB receivers have used and implemented the same basic character set as the one given in Table 4.
However, as this character set does not include a number of special characters used in Central and Eastern
Europe, ETSI standardized for DAB receivers in September 2015 a modified and extended set. For RDS receivers
the modification agreed by ETSI cannot be applied for reasons of backwards compatibility.
NOTE 2 The only control codes used in RDS are 0x0A 'line feed' and 0x0D ‘carriage return’. It is used to mark the
end of text in RT, eRT and long PS. All other control codes in the range 0x01 to 0x1F are not assigned.
NOTE 3 For the characters 0x20 to 0x7F the coding mostly complies with ISO/IEC 10646. The characters
0x80 to 0xFE were mapped (by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU)), prior to ISO/IEC 10646, to accommodate
the most frequently used symbols in the Western part of Europe.

For example, the PS name ‘Radio 21’ could be transmitted in group type 0 A/B as follows,
using the codes of Table 4:
Characters: Ra di o 21
PS segment address: 0 1 2 3
PS segment Character codes Characters Effect
address
0 0x52, 0x61 R, a First two letters
1 0x64, 0x69 d, i Second two letters
2 0x6F, 0x20 o, space Third two letters
3 0x32, 0x31 2, 1 Last two letters
