Understanding and Modelling a Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) Receiver

Speaker: Sunil Shukla & Mark Raadsen, ITEE, University of Tweente

When: 2004-08-19 13:00:00

Venue: 78-420

Host: Neil Bergmann

Abstract:

As part of the European Union 4S Project (Smart chipS for Smart
Surroundings), ESG at the University of Queensland is working on a
coarse-grained heterogeneous implementation of a particular ambient
computing device - a DAB receiver.

As a starting point for research is this area, this talk will
explain the DAB system which uses sophisticated signal processing
techniques such as ODFM modulation, punctured convolution coding and
Viterbi decoding to provide protection against mutilpath and other
sources of interference. DAB is the primary candidate for digital
radio in Australia, with trials underway currently in Sydney.

DAB provides CD-quality audio services, as well as additional
digital services such as messaging, images, and text.
