Digital Radio Mondiale

Overview

The DRM Stack is a complete digital broadcasting platform built on the open-standard Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) specification. Designed for modern broadcasters, it enables high-quality, spectrum- efficient digital transmission across AM, SW, and VHF/FM bands. From content encoding and multiplexing to cloud-hosted delivery and receiver integration, the DRM Stack empowers broadcasters to deliver audio, multimedia and data services — with superior audio fidelity, flexible data capabilities, and low-cost deployment — in both traditional broadcast and next-gen hybrid environments.

Key Highlights

  • Open & Royalty-Free Standard Support: Fully compliant with the DRM open-standard (no licensing fees), enabling broad adoption across global broadcast infrastructure.

  • High-Quality Digital Audio Encoding: Delivers FM-like audio clarity with support for stereo, surround sound and optimized speech codecs for medium & shortwave.

  • Multimedia Data Broadcasting: Transmit text, images, weather updates, emergency alerts, educational content and other metadata alongside audio.

  • Efficient Spectrum Utilization: Maximizes broadcast value by transmitting multiple services in low power and bandwidth — ideal for AM/SW/VHF/FM.

  • Scalable & Backward-Compatible Deployment: Coexists with legacy analog broadcasts and supports hybrid rollout strategies toward full-digital coverage.
