Radiodays Asia opens sponsored speaking opportunities for 2026
The WorldDAB group is releasing an “expert guide to successful DAB+ field trials,” conveniently entitled “DAB+ Digital Radio: A Guide to a Successful Field Trial.”
The release coincides with WorldDAB’s DAB+ seminar at the ABU Digital Broadcasting Symposium 2024 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The group points to growing interest in DAB+ broadcasting and feels the guide will help in “establishing a successful field trial — a key step in laying the groundwork for a future rollout, and fully implementing digital broadcast radio.”
WorldDAB Project Director Bernie O’Neill said: “When radio stakeholders become interested in establishing DAB+ digital radio, they want to explore DAB+ features and capabilities and understand the process to establish DAB+ as a full-scale national broadcasting system. One of the best ways to undertake these initial steps is to establish an on-air field trial and this new guide is designed to help them successfully take these first steps which inform the final system design.”
Topics covered include motivation, stakeholder engagement, regulatory and licensing, equipment, Technical aspects including drive testing for coverage checks and feature testing and how to conclude field trials activities.
The guide is free.
