Digital audio broadcasting

Digital audio broadcasting (DAB) is a digital radio technology for broadcasting radio stations, used in several countries across Europe and Asia Pacific.

The DAB standard was initiated as a European research project in the 1980s. The Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK) launched the very first DAB channel in the world on 1 June 1995 (NRK Klassisk), and the BBC and SR launched their first DAB digital radio broadcasts in September 1995. DAB receivers have been available in many countries since the end of the 1990s.

DAB may offer more radio programmes over a specific spectrum than analogue FM radio. DAB is more robust with regard to noise and multipath fading for mobile listening, since DAB reception quality first degrades rapidly when the signal strength falls below a critical threshold, whereas FM reception quality degrades slowly with the decreasing signal.

Audio quality varies depending on the bitrate used and audio material. Most stations use a bit rate of 128 kbit/s or less with the MP2 audio codec, which requires 160 kbit/s to achieve perceived FM quality. 128 kbit/s gives better dynamic range or signal-to-noise ratio than FM radio, but a more smeared stereo image, and an upper cut-off frequency of 14 kHz, corresponding to 15 kHz of FM radio. However, "CD sound quality" with MP2 is possible "with 256…192 kbps".

    Eden

    by: Die Happy

    There's war in the heavens
    Rebellion on high
    the son of the morning
    Descends from a black sky
    Severed and broken
    His wings burned to dust
    His coverings of diamonds and gold
    In a moment in time dissolve to rust
    Thunder and lightning
    Shatter the night
    The dragon of darkness
    Appears cursed by the keeper of the light
    The dark is chosen
    The scroll has been sealed
    Hidden in verses of prophets
    His face is revealed
    Songs of glory
    Shout across the land
    I can take you there
    Child of mine, take my hand
    Down through the ages
    The story's been told
    The daughter of wisdom
    Beguiled by the serpent of old
    Born into sin in a valley of thorns
    Torn from enchantment and
    Tossed into the eye of the storm
    Heaven's garden
    Made by God for man
    This is paradise
    Child of mine, take my hand
    Glory to glory
    Sin after sin
    The rider of death
    Pushes on to the place where
    The battle must begin
    Songs of glory
    Shout across the land
    This is paradise
    Won't you take my hand
    Heaven's garden
    Made by God for man
    This is paradise
    Child of mine, take my hand
    Oh, take my hand
