Tekel, hereby submit my support for Mr. John Pavlica, Jr.'s Motion to Dismiss the Commission's Report and Order, as adopted October 10, 2002, which currently allows the preliminary use of In-Band, On-Channel (IBOC) digital audio broadcasting (also known by the marketing name "HD Radio") on the AM and FM radio bands. For over a decade, various attempts have been made at designing and implementing an IBOC system for the U.S. radio airwaves, but these attempts have been unsuccessful due to numerous flaws, and iBiquity's current IBOC system is no different. As currently designed and authorized, IBOC is an inherently flawed system that has the potential to cause great harm to the viability, effectiveness, and long-term success of existing analog AM and FM radio broadcasting services. IBOC is a proprietary system Currently, there is only one proponent of an IBOC system whose design has been submitted, studied, and approved -- that of iBiquity Digital Corporation (iBiquity). This is an unprecedented case of the use of a proprietary broadcasting system. Virtually all other enhancements to broadcasting services that have been introduced over the years have been borne out of competition between the designs of various proponents: AM Stereo, FM Stereo, color television, multi-channel television sound, and most recently, High Definition television (HDTV).

  • CT-Aacplus — a State-Of-The-Art Audio Coding Scheme
    AUDIO CODING CT-aacPlus — a state-of-the-art Audio coding scheme Martin Dietz and Stefan Meltzer Coding Technologies, Germany CT-aacPlus is a combination of Spectral Band Replication (SBR) technology – a bandwidth-extension tool developed by Coding Technologies (CT) in Germany – with the MPEG Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) technology which, to date, has been one of the most efficient traditional perceptual audio-coding schemes. CT-aacPlus is able to deliver high-quality audio signals at bit-rates down to 24 kbit/s for mono and 48 kbit/s for stereo signals. The forthcoming Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) broadcasting system, among others, will use CT-aacPlus for its audio-coding scheme. CT-aacPlus will enable DRM to deliver an audio quality, in the frequency range below 30 MHz, that is equivalent to – or even better than – that offered by today’s analogue FM services. This article describes the principles of traditional audio coders – and their limitations when used for low bit-rate applications. The second part describes the basic idea of SBR technology and demonstrates the improvements achieved through the combination of SBR technology with traditional audio coders such as AAC and MP3. Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) has so far been one of the most efficient traditional perceptual audio-coding algorithms. In combination with the bandwidth-extension technology, Spectral Band Replication (SBR), the coding efficiency of AAC can be even further improved by at least 30%, thus providing the same audio quality at a 30% lower bit-rate. The combination of AAC and SBR – referred to as CT-aacPlus – will be used by the Digital Radio Mondiale transmission system [1] in the frequency bands below 30 MHz and will provide near- FM sound quality at bit-rates of around 20 kbit/s per audio channel.

  • WBU Radio Guide
    FOREWORD The purpose of the Digital Radio Guide is to help engineers and managers in the radio broadcast community understand options for digital radio systems available in 2019. The guide covers systems used for transmission in different media, but not for programme production. The in-depth technical descriptions of the systems are available from the proponent organisations and their websites listed in the appendices. The choice of the appropriate system is the responsibility of the broadcaster or national regulator who should take into account the various technical, commercial and legal factors relevant to the application. We are grateful to the many organisations and consortia whose systems and services are featured in the guide for providing the updates for this latest edition. In particular, our thanks go to the following organisations: European Broadcasting Union (EBU) North American Broadcasters Association (NABA) Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) HD Radio WorldDAB Forum Amal Punchihewa Former Vice-Chairman World Broadcasting Unions - Technical Committee April 2019 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION .......................................................................................................................................... 5 WHAT IS DIGITAL RADIO? ....................................................................................................................... 7 WHY DIGITAL RADIO? .............................................................................................................................. 9 TERRESTRIAL

INTRODUCTION Increasingly, American consumers have grown dissatisfied with traditional broadcast radio. Tired of the limited content provided by local broadcasters, weary of listening to commercials and static, and frustrated with the lack of timely traffic and weather reports, consumers desire a radio service that meets their individual needs and tastes. Today, satellite radio hopes to present a solution to many Americans' frustrations with traditional radio. For this fledgling industry to survive, however, it must successfully navigate a myriad of regulatory and market obstacles. Seventy-five percent of Americans listen to the radio everyday, and ninety-four percent of all Americans listen to the radio at least once a week.

  • Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018
    Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2018 MINNESOTA EAS STATEWIDE PLAN Revision 10 Basic Plan 01/31/2019 I. REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort. The purpose of this plan is to establish a standardized, integrated EAS & IPAWS communications protocol capable of facilitating the rapid dissemination of emergency information to the public. B. Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.
