[HCDX] DRM trial kicks off in Vietnam



DRM trial kicks off in Vietnam:
(29 July 05)

The first trial of DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale) over medium frequency (MF) 
in Vietnam kicked off yesterday in Dong Hoi, the capital city of Quang Binh 
province.
Organized and hosted by VOV-Vietnam with the ABU's assistance, the trial 
featured a workshop on the first day where new digital radio technology was 
presented to technical experts from VOV and the Ministry of Science and 
Technology, as well as government advisors responsible for the country's 
digital broadcast development plan.
In opening the workshop, VOV's Director-General Vu Van Hien outlined the 
radio broadcaster's commitment to staying abreast of developments in 
technology in radio broadcasting.
He added that VOV would use DRM to build on its successes in providing a 
wide range of radio programmes to not only the people of Vietnam but to the 
rest of the world through shortwave transmissions.
Mr Hien expressed his gratitude for the support received from the DRM 
consortium and organizations that have actively worked with VOV in bringing 
the trial to reality.
The workshop's tutorial presentations were made by VOV's senior staff and 
experts from the Harris Corporation and VT Communications who are in Dong 
Hoi to assist VOV with the trial.
The trial will continue with a field strength measuring campaign to assess 
the digital radio performance throughout the Dong Hoi MF service area, and 
to better understand the differences in quality of the DRM signal in the 
station's distant coverage areas. (ABU Website)
