What is DRM

DRM is the universal, openly standardised digital broadcasting system for all broadcasting frequencies, including the AM bands (LW, MW, SW), as well as VHF Bands I, II – (FM band) and III.

In the past the AM flavour was known as DRM30 and the VHF variant as DRM+. This gave the false impression that there are two standard or that one is the more modern of the other. The DRM standard is one, sharing the same features and benefits across all the bands. To be more explicit and get rid of possible confusion nowadays we call is DRM for AM (below 30 MHz) and DRM for FM (VHF band). DRM is one standard, free for all and on all bands.

DRM ensures the efficient and complete digitisation of those countries committing to the digital radio roll-out. The great flexibility of DRM supports all types of coverage needs – from local, regional, nation-wide to international.  DRM allows a seamless transition to digital radio with the upgrade of existing transmitter infrastructure as well as with analogue-digital simulcast configurations. DRM digital radio can save broadcasters up to 80% in energy and maintenance costs.
