Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a digital audio broadcasting apparatus and a method thereof, and more particularly, to a digital audio broadcasting apparatus and a method thereof for receiving an FM signal in a case where a reception state of a DAB signal is poor, will be.
DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting) refers to audio broadcasting capable of transmitting high-quality sound, text, and graphics at the same level as a compact disc (CD) using terrestrial waves. Generally, it refers to terrestrial broadcasting, It also includes a satellite DAB that uses multimedia broadcasting at the same time.
DAB refers to an audio broadcast that can transmit not only high-quality voice at the compact disc level but also characters, graphics, and moving pictures beyond simple audio services such as conventional AM (Amplitude Modulation) broadcasting and FM (Frequency Modulation) broadcasting.
Terrestrial DAB has already become a standardized service in Europe and the United States, the United States has chosen the In Band On Channel (IBOC) and Europe has chosen the Eureka 147 as the out-of- Service.
The difference between the US and European systems is that the US DAB converts analogue broadcasting to digital and simultaneously performs analog broadcasting and digital broadcasting, while DAB in Europe is a new system in which new operators and existing operators enter the DAB market It is a new service.
DAB can provide various multimedia information services at low price, can be used for mobile broadcasting according to frequency band allocation, can generate new revenue source through additional data transmission service, It has the advantage of being able to achieve industrial effect.
