Multipath Reception

Until now, analogue radio signals such as FM or MW have been subject to numerous kinds of interference on their way from the transmitter to your car. These problems were caused by land formations such as mountains, high-rise buildings, and weather conditions, and they all had a negative effect on reception quality. DAB, however, uses these effects as reflectors, creating multipath reception conditions to optimise car receiver sensitivity. This phenomenon can be compared to a parabolic mirror, which focuses and amplifies incoming light rays at its centre. Since DAB always selects the strongest regional transmitter automatically, you'll always be at the focal point of incoming radio signals. Aside from distortion-free reception and CD-quality sound, DAB offers further advantages:

Primary and Secondary Services

Radio stations often provide a whole series of different services. In addition to primary automobile services, they can also provide secondary services for data transfer.

Announcement Support

Announcement codes give priority to information such as weather and news bulletins. If, for example, you want to receive messages during news broadcasts, the radio switches to the corresponding service.

Dynamic Label Segment

Dynamic Label Segment can transmit radio text of up to 128 characters and display it on the screen in 2 x 16 character (VRX928RVD) format. Short messages can also be displayed in the form of headlines.

Service Following

If you're travelling outside a DAB transmission zone, the receiver switches to the best available FM RDS station in the selected service network. The same feature allows transmission between different DAB zones.
