Abstract
In order to provide high-quality stereo reception to all receivers a digital audio broadcasting (DAB) system capable of reliable reception in vehicles and portables has been developed by the European collaborative project Eureka 147. The aim of DAB is to deliver near-CD quality stereo audio programmes in digital form to domestic receivers. One of the limitations of conventional FM radio is that the signal received, in particular by portable and mobile receivers, is often degraded by multipath propagation. A DAB system should therefore be resistant to degradation in the presence of multipath
