WorldCast Audemat
RDS Encoder
Tech Note Report
W

orldCast has shared a Tech
Note report following a study
on the Audemat RDS Encoder's level of
spectral purity and quality.
The previous generation RDS
encoder, the FM B80, field proven
for decades and trusted by major
broadcasters and stations worldwide,
was used in the study as a basis for
comparison with the new Audemat RDS
Encoder.
In the report, WorldCast Product
Manager & Application Engineer Julien
Libeau noted: "When adding RDS data
to the MPX signal one of the most
important criteria for choosing the
encoder is the spectral purity of the
unit. Nobody wants to alter the station
audio content with generated noise by
the RDS encoder.

Audemat RDS Encoder

The old Audemat FMB80 was clearly
the best unit on the market in terms of
RDS encoding but also impressive for
the generated signal spectral quality
and purity.
"If we look to date MPX spectrum
of RDS encoders on the market, the
FMB80 is obviously notable by the
purity of the signal and the low level of
noise on the all spectrum."
He adds: "But still more significant is
the new MPX over AES feature which
gives the best purity and signal quality
ever achieved on an RDS encoder."
This feature - explained in the Tech
Note - provides a level of quality and
reliability among the global broadcast
chain that is in phase with WorldCast
Systems' expectations and products.
