History of DABIn 1980s the first digital sound broadcasting systems providing CD like audio quality for satellite delivery.

Frequency band 10 to 12GHzLittle sound data compressionNot aimed at mobile reception

In 1987 the Eureka-147 project was bornFirst DAB standard was achieved in 1993In 1995 the ETSI adopted DAB as the only European standard for digital radio

IBOC DABPermit a smooth evolution from current analog radio broadcasting to fully digital radio broadcasting. Allow broadcaster to keep current analog transmissionNo new spectrum required for AM or FM transmissionNear CD Quality for FMFM stereo quality sound for AM station No new tower or transmitter site New data capabilities for AM and FM stations

IBOC DAB History

2001iBiquity was born

2002IBOC technology approved by the FCC

2003 First AM and FM stations begin broadcasting with HD Radio

April, 2005 IBOC DAB Standard (NRSC-5) approved

Page 21: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 21

Attenuation source

Any objects which obstruct the line of sight signalDiffract off the boundaries of obstructions

Low frequencies diffracting more than high frequency signals

High frequency signals, require line of sight for adequate signal strength

Multipath effects

Page 23: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 23

Fast fadingRelative phase of multiple reflected signals can cause constructive or destructive interference at the receiver

[3]

Page 24: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 24

Rayleigh Fading

Rayleigh distribution describes the probability of the signal level being received due to fading.

Page 25: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 25

Frequency Selective Fading

Channel spectral response is not flatDeep nulls in the received signal powerFor narrow bandwidth entire signal can be lostThis can overcome in two ways:

Transmitting a spread spectrum as CDMASplit the transmission into many small bandwidth carriers (OFDM)

Page 26: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 26

Delay Spread

Time spread between the arrival of the first and last multipath signalLead to inter-symbol interferenceISI can be minimized by CDMA or OFDM

[3]

Page 27: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 27

Doppler ShiftWhen a wave source and a receiver are moving relative to one another thefrequency of the received signal changed

Significant problemsIf transmission technique is sensitive to carrier frequency offsets (COFDM) Relative speed is very high

Page 28: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 28

OFDMSimilar to FDM but OFDM uses the spectrum much more efficientlyMulticarrier techniqueDivides the spectrum into many carriersSub carrier are orthogonal to each otherbandwidth of each channel is typically 10kHz-30kHz (for voice communications)Multipath tolerance (by guard interval)

OFDM generation

Page 30: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 30

OFDMNoise performance was depend on the modulation technique used for modulating each carrierMinimum SNR required for BPSK was ~7dB, ~12dB for QPSK and ~25dB for 16PSKTotal immunity to multipath delay spread when reflection time is less then the guard period Delay Spreads of up to 100µsec could be tolerated, corresponding to multipath reflections of 30km

Page 31: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 31

OFDM

It is very sensitive to frequency, and phase errors between the transmitter and receiver

phase noise of the transmitterFrequency offset errors between the transmitter and receiver

This problem can be overcome by synchronizing the clocks or by reducing the number of carriers used.

Page 32: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 32

OFDM

Clipping of the OFDM signal have little effect on the performanceAllowing the peak power of the signal to be clipped up to 6 - 9dB Tolerance to clipping reduces the dynamic range overhead

Page 33: DAB System

3/2/2007 Digital Audio Broadcasting systems 33

Adding Guard interval to OFDM

Robustness against multipath delay spreadThe level of robustness, can be increased more by the addition of a guard periodCyclic extension effectively extends the length of the symbol without loss of orthogonality

OFDM system implementation

Using general purpose DSPsmost of the processing is required in performing the fast fourier transform (FFT)The complexity of performing an FFT is dependent on the size of the FFT.

CDMA

What is CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access)Spread spectrum techniqueNarrow band message is multiplied by a pseudo random noise code (PN code)All channels use the same frequency band and transmit simultaneouslySignal is recovered by correlating the received signal with the PN code used

CDMAData to be transmitted is spread by modulating the data using a PN code.Received signal is recovered by multiplying the signal by the original spreading code
