Abstract
Digital Audio Broadcasting is based on the Eureka-147 specification. DAB offers as well as the excellent audio reproduction made possible through digital transmission.
Additionally, it offers significant extra capability for in-car infotainment systems from the large data capability supported by the Eureka standard. In the automotive environment this bandwidth can be deployed for traffic service information, using standards such as RDS-TMC and TPEG.
Also, emerging applications like off-board navigation are very hungry for bandwidth, and with the right server technology in the broadcasting chain DAB offers a very credible alternative to the expensive cellular network for delivering large volumes of data to individual vehicles.
