What is a multiplex?
Digital radio operation is made up of a single block of frequencies called
a multiplex. Each multiplex works within a frequency spectrum, such as
BandIIIforDABbroadcasts.
DAB BROADCASTERS AND DLS
Each DAB broadcaster (or multiplex operator) also provides text and
audio data services. Some programmes are supported by Dynamic
Label Segments (DLS).This is data which you can read as scrolling text
on your DAB radio display. Some stations transmit the latest news,
travel, and weather, what’s on now and next, website addresses and
phone numbers.
