In 1865 Fredrik Idestam established a pulp mill near the town of Tampere, Finland. A second pulp mill was opened in 1868 near the neighboring town of Nokia. In 1871, Idestam and Leo Mechelin, formed a shared company and called it Nokia Ab (Translating to “Nokia Company”), after the site of the second pulp mill.

Raspberry Pi Generates DAB+ Multiplex Stream

A small-scale DAB broadcasting project in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, has successfully tested an extremely low cost contribution chain for DAB+ multiplexes. The scalable architecture “might well be the most cost effective solution to date for local broadcasters interested in DAB transmissions to create a DAB multiplex stream,” according to WorldDAB.org.
As part of the DAB+ 4 Brainport project, it was decided to apply the well-known Open Digital Radio software on low-cost Raspberry Pi processing units. With these, a contribution network was built, transferring the signals from 7 local radio stations to a central multiplex unit, which then supplies the multiplex stream to the DAB distribution network. The network has run for more than two months and has proven to be very reliable. (Any service interruptions that occurred ultimately turned out to be due to unannounced changes in the provisioning of the audio streams or other problems in the delivery of the audio source. None were due to problems with the Raspberry Pi units or the programs applied.) “Contrary to a number of DAB experiments currently run in the Netherlands I wanted to test whether or not low cost distributed processing could provide a reliable DAB multiplex stream for our local DAB network,” said Gerard Lokhoff, the initiator of the DAB+ 4 Brainport project. “I'm very satisfied with the result, proving that such small scale projects can provide valuable options for local broadcasters.”
The architecture allows for a hybrid structure, in which radio stations can either encode the audio in-house, which also enables them to easily change the text (DLS) or image (MOT) information embedded in the audio stream, or use a central audio encoder at the multiplex site. The processing power of the Raspberry Pi is enough to encode up to four radio stations on a single unit simultaneously, with the limiting factor actually being the temperature of the processing core. The final multiplexing of the signals requires very little processing power. The cost of this DAB contribution chain set up nicely scales with the number of different Raspberry Pi units used: If every radio station decides to encode the audio in-house, it will cost about €50–60 per station (US $60– $71) plus €50–60 for the multiplexing unit. Reliable Internet connections must be available, with enough bandwidth to support the encoded audio streams (typically about 64 to 128 kbits/sec per station) as well as the DAB multiplex signal (max 2 Mbps).

That means all of our frequencies are back on the air except 15770, which was using the antenna that fell down in the hurricane on September 10. We have to evaluate what if anything can be done about that. Meantime, the 15770 kHz programming is being switched to other frequencies, and we have extended our schedule on 7780 and 11825 kHz. We still have a lot of lines down in the antenna field, but this will be repaired gradually as time allows

Un microfono para el sahara

Un grupo de jóvenes periodistas españoles ha creado la asociación sin ánimo de lucro Un Micro para el Sáhara, (https://unmicroparaelsahara.com) con el objetivo de conseguir material para la Radio Nacional Saharaui y de impartir talleres a los periodistas de los campos de refugiados.
Además de los talleres, los comunicadores realizarán un documental sobre cómo se puede hacer radio en mitad del desierto y sobre cómo es la vida en los campos de refugiados.
El grupo de periodistas viajará allí del 7 al 17 de octubre para impartir talleres a los integrantes de la Radio Nacional Saharaui y contribuir al funcionamiento de la misma con la dotación de material. De esta manera, esperan ayudar a los periodistas saharauis a modernizar la “parrilla clásica y poco dinámica” de una radio que es esencial para la comunicación en los campos de refugiados.
Para recaudar fondos, Un Micro para el Sáhara ha organizado dos conciertos solidarios en Madrid, el 14 de septiembre y el 2 de octubre, ha impulsado la instalación de una jaima con música electrónica el 29 de septiembre y ha puesto en marcha un proyecto de recolección de material técnico en migranodearena.org.

European markets announce support for European DAB digital radio receiver standard

European digital radio markets came together today to announce support for the newly published ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) Euro standard for DAB digital radio.

This standard has been agreed as the Minimum Specification for DAB digital radio receivers across Europe and is supported by WorldDAB and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), as well as broadcasters and manufacturers in Germany, the UK, Norway, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy. This support means that broadcasters and broadcast groups will be recommending to manufacturers and retailers that their products meet the ETSI standard.

The European DAB standard benefits consumers as it requires radio receivers to support both DAB+ and DAB, as well as FM. It sets out minimum requirements, including receiver sensitivity, to ensure that receivers can pick-up all available broadcast DAB radio stations. 

Many leading European radio manufacturers including Sony, Philips, Panasonic, Pure, Roberts, Ruark, Pioneer and Kenwood will be making radios to the new Euro Standard and further manufacturers in key European markets are planning to adopt the standard.

Manufacturers with DAB products that meet the Euro Standard can opt to use the Digital Radio Tick Mark on their products,packaging and promotions. This is a certification mark giving consumers reassurance that the product meets a minimum level of performance and that it has been tested and approved. There are now over 20 manufacturers using the Digital Radio Tick Mark and the logo appears on product and packaging for DAB radios distributed across European markets. Markets supporting the Tick Mark include the UK, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy. Also at IFA, major Norwegian manufacturer Tiny committed to making future radios to meet the European Standard and use the Tick Mark. 

The ETSI TS 103 461 standard is already published and is a ratification of the European Specification that was already supporting the Digital Radio Tick Mark. The ETSI standard includes a link to the ETI files needed to test receiver products. The ETI files required to test the core technology will be made available by Digital Radio UK in 2018.

Patrick Hannon, President, WorldDAB, said: “The adoption of a European Standard for DAB receivers and the growing international support for the Tick Mark, are important steps forward for DAB radio in Europe. These developments are clear evidence of the growing maturity of the sector.”

Graham Dixon, Head of Radio, European Broadcasting Union, said: “The establishment of an ETSI standard for the testing and approval of digital radio receivers is an important milestone in the adoption of DAB technology across Europe, providing clarity and consistency for manufacturers, broadcasters and consumers alike.”

Ford Ennals, CEO, Digital Radio UK, said: “This is a big day for radio and for DAB right across Europe. Broader support for the common Euro standard for DAB and the Tick Mark will help regional manufacturers develop new innovative DAB products and accelerate the European take up of DAB.”

Jacqueline Bierhorst, Project Director of Digital Radio Netherlands, said: “As digital radio becomes increasingly popular in the Netherlands, it’s great news to see the introduction of common standard for Europe, giving listeners reassurance that product has been tested and approved.”

Thomas Saner, Senior Advisor at SRG SSR, said: “We will support the introduction of the Digital Radio Tick Mark in Switzerland and we encourage manufacturers to test and approve against the European standard and display the corresponding Tick Mark on product packaging.”

Paul Smith, CEO, Pure, said: “All of our radios sold across Europe for both the home and the car have the Digital Radio Tick Mark as standard, which we highlight on our packaging. In key markets, such as Norway and Switzerland, we have seen a phenomenal increase in DAB+ sales, and we expect to see this growth continue in other European markets.”

Tom Vedvik, Owner of Tiny Audio, said: “We welcome the establishment of a clear Euro standard for DAB and going forward plan to build our DAB radios to meet the ETSI standard as well as including the Digital Radio Tick Mark on packaging. It’s great that there is a coordinated European approach to DAB which together with strong country promotion of DAB and switchover in lead markets will mean that European DAB sales will continue to surge.”
