The channels of domestic FM broadcast are needed to provide various kinds of new broadcasting services. However, available channels are limited and saturated. The channel interval of FM broadcast is changed from 200 kHz to 100 kHz to maximize utilization efficiency of scarce broadcast spectrum at all over the world. Also, there are many researches such as IBOC(In Band On Channel) and DRM+(Digital Radio Mondial+) that is to allocate the digital signal beside analog bandwidth. But output power is decrease to avoid interference between adjacent radio stations. In this paper, we analyzes the problems of the protection ratio which is decided in 1986 and we propose method to improve about 7~10dB significantly the protection ratio according to the recent DSP(Digital Signal Processing) techniques without loss of both transmission power and broadcast quality. In addition, we examined the possibility of securing two times available channels by reducing minimum frequency interval from 800 kHz to 400 kHz or 600 kHz in the equal site.

Recently n Korea, the House of Commons and terrestrial broadcasting facilities integrated with FM radio and the satellite compulsory was amended to transfer MATV(Master Antenna Television) adjusted by SMATV(Satellite Master Antenna Television). While the SMATV was accepted by default in most other countries, our county did not accept it as the default for broadcast. Because domestic cable and satellite television service providers are conflicts with their interest. bAs a result, the hybrid amplifier for SMATV technology development and volume production for the state is insufficient. Therefore, terrestrial television broadcast bands (54 ~ 806Mhz) and FM radio broadcast band (88 ~ 108Mhz) band satellite with (950 ~ 2150Mhz) to amplify the development of a broadband amplifier with subsequent resolution of problems is also presented in this study.

The IBAC DAB system was interfered by existing FM broadcasting signal as was used guardband within existing FM broadcasting. The FM interference signals are very important parameter in performance evaluation of IBAC DAB system. We got the characteristic of FM PSD in according to instantaneous change and average characteristic of FM broadcasting signal in according to characteristic of FM channel. In this paper, based on proposed IBAC DAB system, we analyze effects of FM interference for occupied bandwidth and performance of IBAC DAB modeling various FM interference signals with sum of sinusoid function using C language, suggest FM interference ratio that can maintain performance. We was know that IBAC DAB system have a great performance variation in according to average characteristic of FM PSD by simulation results, also, FM interference ration that can maintain performance of system is 10dB.

DAB는 기존의 아날로그 대역을 사용하게 됨에 따라 기존의 FM 방송신호의 간섭으로 수신성능의 저하가 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 FM신호의 간섭에 따른 DAB시스템의 성능저하를 SNR의 관점에서 성능평가를 하였으며, DAB와 FM신호간의 혼신보호비를 제시하였다.

본 논문에서는 동일 주파수 대역 내 DRM(Digital Radio Mondiale) Plus 신호와 FM(Frequeny Modulation) 신호가 모두 서비스 되는 Hybrid 방송 모드에 적합한 DRM Plus 신호 검출 기법을 제안한다. OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 신호의 Guard-Interval 상관 기법을 그대로 적용할 경우 DRM Plus 신호 검출 성능은 우수하나, FM 신호 수신 시 False Alarm 발생 확률이 증가하는 문제점이 발생한다. 제안한 방법은 Guard-Interval 상관 방법에 Reference 블록을 포함하고 있어, 약한 DRM Plus 신호에서도 판별 확률이 높고, 아날로그 FM 신호 수신 시 False Alarm이 발생할 확률이 낮은 특징이 있다. 모의 실험을 통하여 제안한 기법의 성능을 확인한다.

교통정보와 DGPS(Differential GPS) 보정신호의 전송은 ITS(Intelligent Transport System)의 핵심 응용분야인 차량항법시스템(CNS : Car Navigation System)의 동적경로안내(Dynamic Routine Guidance System) 시스템의 핵심적인 요구사항이다. 이 정보들은 서비스 특성상 넓은 지역을 수신지역으로 하고 24시간 연속적으로 전송이 되어야 한다. 즉 주행주인 차량에서 자신의 위치 정확히 파악하기 위한 DGPS 보정신호 및 사고, 교통통제나 체증 등의 교통사항을 항상 수신할 수 있도록 항시 전송이 되어야 한다. FM 방송을 활용하여 이러한 요구사항을 충족시키는 전송채널로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하기 위해 FM 방송과 DARC 방식의 부반송파 시뮬레이터가 제작되었으며 이 시스템의 특성이 연구되었다. 또한 정보데이터를 현용 FM 방송설비를 이용하여 전송하기 위한 방송시스템을 제작하고 서울 및 경기도 지역을 수신지역으로 한 방송수신상태의 측정이 수행되었다. 이 결과들은 FM 부반송이 ITS를 위한 전송채널로서 활용될 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.

Sudden natural disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, heavy rainfall, etc., which come without warning, often threaten our lives and property, so it is important to spread the disaster quickly and accurately. Thus, in this paper, we present a method for the activating of FM radio receiver chip embedded in smartphone to receive disaster broadcasting in case of disaster. One is to investigate the roles and limits in a domestic disaster broadcasting system and disaster relay broadcasting by media, and the other is to present the method for the activation of smartphone FM radio receiver chip by conduct an expert survey.

In this paper we analyze the bit error rate of an in-band DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) system which is based upon orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) and uses M-PSK and M-QAM modulation schemes in the interference environment of an analog FM signal. Results are derived which take into account the influence of the frequency non- selective Rician fading channel, but they are valid for Rayleigh fading channel and AWGN channel as well. Theoretical bit error rates and simulation results are given for system parameters for DAB proposed by ETRI(Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute).

In this paper, the possibility and necessity of the digital broadcasting propulsion in AM and FM is presented based on DRM and DRM+ transmission modes, They are the members of series technological family in digital radio development. As the frequency utilization, the application of DRM+ is flexible in any mode such as IN-BAND or OUT-OF-BAND. When the digital audio broadcasting is planned at LOW-VHF bandwidth such as TV channel No.5 and NO.6 being adjacent to FM band and OUT-Of-BAND DRM+ technology is applied, there is no collision and jamming. Particularly, in the IN-BAND Hybrid mode, it is mentioned that there was the difficulty problem for multiple SFN transmitters uses. Not like the IN-BAND mode the OUT-OF-BAND mode lets multiple transmitters, because neighbor transmitters do not interfere each other. Digital transmitter can be combined with the existing FM transmitter. The intensity of power and size of area can be easily determined according to local broadcasters' condition. And the OUT-OF-BAND mode is advantageous for AM/FM integration in digital radio receiver manufacturing, which makes the conversion schedule much shorter.

In this paper, we propose a detection method for Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) Plus suitable for hybrid mode broadcasting which services both DRM Plus and analog FM within the same frequency band. The guard-interval correlation method of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is good for DRM Plus signal detection, but the possibility for false alarm increases when FM signal is received. The proposed method includes a reference block in the guard-interval correlation which increases the identification rate of weak DRM Plus signals and decreases the possibility of false alarm when analog FM is received. The performance of the proposed method is verified through simulations.
