DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting)는 기존 아날로 그 방식 AM과 FM 라디오 방송의 한계와 문제점을 극복하고 CD 수준 음질의 오디오를 포함한 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공하는 차세대 라디오 방송이다. DAB는 전송 주파수 대역에 따라 기존의 FM/AM 대역과 다른 새로운 대역을 사용하는 Out-of-Band 방식과 기존의 FM/AM 대역을 사용하는 In-Band 방식으로 분류할 수 있다. Out-of-Band 방식으로는 유럽의 Eureka-147과 일본의 협대역 ISDB-T(Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting-Terrestrial) 방식이 있으며, In-Band 방식은 미국의 USADR(USA Digital Radio)사와 LDR(Lucent Digital Radio)사가 개발하고 있는 IBOC(In-Band On Channel) 방식과 국내 한국전자통신연구원(ETRI)에서 개발 중인 IBAC(In-Band Adjacent Channel) 방식이 있다. 본 고에서는 DAB의 전송 주파수 대역에 따른 방식별 특성을 고찰하고 유럽, 일본, 미국과 국내에서 상용화 서비스 또는 개발되고 있는 DAB 시스템의 기술동향을 분석 한다.

The Korean radio broadcasting system is analog. Digital Radio will transmit a digital signal to existing analog FM/AM. It provides clear sound quality, traffic information, weather information and various value-added services. In addition, the converted digital radio will be able to meet demand to growing demand for analog FM. DRM + is an area to place, depending on the frequency of usage to less interference can be placed anywhere. In this paper, DRM + system, a brief description, and is currently using the frequency status were described, accordingly DRM + candidate channel derived measures proposed, the existing analog broadcast and DRM + of interference effects through the simulation has been verified.

In this paper, the efficient channel estimation schemes for DRM system(AM band digital radio broadcasting standard) are investigated. In frequency domain, by means of the linear interpolation, the second order interpolation, cubic spline interpolation, and time domain interpolation, the channel impulse response is estimated respectively to compensate the attenuation due to the fading. And in time domain, the frequency channel impulse response is averaged to reduce the attenuation due to the AWGN. By the simulation, the performance of MSE, BER and the complexity of calculation is compared and analyzed for each interpolation scheme.

Due to the advance of technology, the technology of various media is rapidly converged into digital technology. However, the conversion into digital radio is not achieved in korea yet. This paper is to suggest the best method of digital conversion of radio in korea by examining some conversion examples in foreign countries. In addition, the survey results on radio audience attitude is analysed by 2,000 audience samples in Korea based on the literature analysis. Radio is the unique media which have the strengths such as mobility, individuality, presence, broad coverage and instant. Most of all, radio cannot help keeping continuously the public broadcasting service in the future. So, the conversion into digital radio is crucial to sustain the competitiveness in digital media environment. This paper suggested that the digital conversion of radio broadcasting needs DRM transmission and should pursuit the policy which is distinguished between a AM and a standard FM, and between domestic broadcast and an international broadcast. Additionally, this paper proposed that we need to develop the multiple device for receiving of signal and the setting of standard technology.

AM 라디오방송은 통상 수십~수백 KW 급의 대출력으로 송신을 하여 타 지상파 방송 매체에 비해 많은 전력을 필요로 하며, 이는 방송사의 재정적 부담을 안겨주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 AM 라디오 방송의 전력은 낮추고 음질과 서비스 커버리지는 동일하게 유지할 수 있는 송출효율을 높여 방송하는 방법들에 대해 고찰하고 적용 가능성을 검토하였다. 연구 결과 국내 AM 방송에 고효율방식의 송출이 기술적으로 가능하며, 이런 방식을 적용할 경우 송출 전력을 30% 이상 절감할 수 있을 것으로 예측되었으나, 현행 AM 라디오 방송에 관한 국내 기술기준으로는 적용이 불가하여 이의 개정이 전제되어야 함을 알 수 있었다. AM 라디오방송에 고효율송출방식을 적용할 경우 송출전력을 대폭 낮추어 방송사의 송출 전력요금 부담을 경감하고 유사 시 국민들을 위한 재난경보매체로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, a nonlinear relationship between an input complex envelope and an output complex envelope of m-th harmonic zone is theoretically analyzed, and AM/$AM_m$ and AM/$PM_m$ are defined. A scheme to extract these characteristics from measured in-phase and quadrature-phase data is suggested. The proposed analysis is verified with a fundamental-fundamental and fundamental-third harmonic measurements for a InGaP power amplifier(PA). Based on the harmonic-band nonlinear analysis and extraction scheme, a new technique to send a signal in m-th harmonic band with a harmonic signal Linearization Digital Predistortion(DPD) scheme is presented. A numerical analysis and a Look-Up Table(LUT) based DPD algorithms to linearize output signal on m-th harmonic zone are developed. For a 16- and a 64-QAM input signals, a DPD for third harmonic signal linearization is implemented, and output spectrum and signal constellation are measured. The wholly distorted signals are linearized, and thus the measured Error Vector Magnitudes (EVM) are 6.4 % and 6.5 % respectively. The results show that a proposed scheme linearizes a nonlinearly distorted harmonic band signals. The proposed nonlinear analysis and predistortion scheme can be applied to multiband transmitter in next generation software defined radio(SDR)/cognitive radio(CR) wireless system.

Analog medias are converting to digital with the development of the digital communications. The Korean radio broadcasting services yet on analog and the research for the digital radio is progressing. The digital conversion of radio broadcasting has already progressed in foreign countries because of the technical limitation of analog broadcasting(The radio-frequency efficiency is poor). DAB is one of the digital radio mode, it doesn't use on AM/FM band and uses on T-DMB frequency band. So, it has an advantage of being able to broadcast with the existing radio without interference at once. On the other hand, it has the potential to cause interference to existing T-DMB broadcasting. In this paper, we propose an efficient DAB channel allocation method for digital radio on T-DMB frequency band. This paper allocates the DAB channel without interference to existing T-DMB broadcasting and proves the proposed method through simulations for the interference analysis.

This paper introduces a radio-wave interference assessment of wind turbines that were planned to be installed at Homi-Cape in Pohang region where wind resource has been evaluated worthwhile developing a wind farm. In that area, AM radio station with two antennas and a harbor radar facility are located so that radio-wave coupling is inevitable if the wind farm is designed without considering radio-wave environmental impact. A low-frequency analysis using MoM (Method of Moment) is used to examine interference effect caused by wind turbines and an optimal layout minimizes coupling effect is presented.

In this paper, the Transport Protocol Experts Group(TPEG) transmission and reception system based on Digital Radio Mondiale(DRM) is implemented for traffic information services. DRM stands for the European radio broadcasting standard to bring AM radio into digital radio, designed to work at frequencies below 30MHz. DRM can offer various data services such as text messages and a slide show service as well as audio services. In spite of low datarate, the TPEG system on DRM has an advantage that the traffic information service system for whole country can be established because DRM can offer wider service ranges than terrestrial-digital multimedia broadcasting(T-DMB) and simply archive a single frequency network.

Intentional city bands and public radio frequencies could reduce the internet transmission speed on the wired lines because AM and HF band are overlapping on the xDSL up and down data steam by way of the wired transmission lines. We were designed the adaptive common mode rejection circuit with 2 way amplifier against public radio frequency. Specially our circuits were applied for power and signal lines. We could reduced the common mode rejection up to 30dB and increased the up stream speed around 1.8 times using a our developed equipments. Also it could expanded the transmission distance up to 1.7 times than old lines.
