Abstract

In 2000, a further digital broadcasting standard called DRM - Digital Radio Mondiale [ETS 101980] was created. DRM is intended for the frequency band from 30 kHz ... 30 MHz, in which the AM service was normally transmitted. The broadcasting frequency bands were basically divided in accordance with their propagation characteristics, as follows:

  • LW (Long Wave) ~30kHz...300kHz

  • MW (Medium Wave) ~300kHz...3kHz

  • SW (Short Wave) ~3kHz...30kHz

  • VHF: ~30kHz...300kHz

  • UHF: ~300kHz...3kHz

VHF is split into three bands:

  • VHF I: 47...85MHz

  • VHF II: 87.5...108MHz

  • VHF III: 174...230MHz

UHF has two frequency bands, which are:

  • UHF IV: 470...606MHz

  • UHF V: 606...826MHz
