  • The DRM Trial
    Project Mayflower: The DRM Trial Final Report April 2009 1 Project Mayflower: The DRM Trial Trial Summary Introduction The BBC and its transmission provider, National Grid Wireless, have recently undertaken a trial of digital radio mondiale (DRM), a technology which allows digital broadcasting at frequencies lower than 30 MHz. The trial ran for a year from April 2007. The final report of the trial is made up of three separate documents: − this trial summary report, which provides some background and draws together the headline conclusions; − a final audience research report, which outlines the results of the research undertaken with an audience panel over the year1; and − a BBC R&D white paper, which provides the results and analysis of continuous unattended measuring and logging of the transmission2. Reflecting the way in which the trial was organised, each of these reports has been written by a different part of the team involved. The final audience research report has been written by the company employed to undertake the research – Leapfrog Research & Planning – with the assistance of BBC Marketing, Communications & Audiences. The technical note has been written by a member of the team who built the continuous logging network at BBC Research & Development and who was involved in developing the underlying DRM technology. 1 “Project Mayflower ‐ Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) Trial: Final audience research summary report”, Daniel Amarasinghe (Leapfrog Planning & Research), Russell Chant (BBC MC&A); August 2008 2 BBC Research White Paper 174, “The Plymouth Digital Radio Mondiale (Drm) Trial: Long‐term Reception Results”, Andrew Murphy; February 2009 2 Background to the trial The digital radio mondiale (DRM) technology is an international standard which was designed to allow digital broadcasting at frequencies below 30 MHz, that is in the broadcasting bands which currently rely on AM transmission.

  • New News, Future News the Challenges for Television News After Digital Switch-Over
    New News, Future News The challenges for television news after Digital Switch-over An Ofcom discussion document Publication date: 26 June 2007 Foreword The prospects for television news in a fully digital era are a central element in any consideration of the future of public service broadcasting (PSB). News is regarded by viewers as the most important of all the PSB genres, and television remains by far the most used source of news for UK citizens. The role of news and information as part of the democratic process is long established, and its status is specifically underpinned in the Communications Act 2003. This report, New News, Future News, is one of a series of Ofcom studies focussing on individual topics identified in the PSB Review of 2004/05, and further discussed in the Digital PSB report of July 2006. The others are on the provision of children’s programmes and on the prospects for a Public Service Publisher. All three studies are linked to areas of particular PSB concern for the future, and set out a framework for policy consideration ahead of the next full PSB review. Other Ofcom work of relevance includes the review of Channel 4’s funding. It has not been the role of this report to come up with solutions, and no policy recommendations are put forward. Instead, the report examines the environment in which television news currently operates, and assesses how that may change in future (after digital switch-over and, in 2014, the expiry of current Channel 3 and Channel 5 licences) . It identifies particular issues that will need to be addressed and suggests some specific questions that may need to be answered.
