The first DRM+ field trial was launched on 20 November in Hanover and will 
run until the 29 February 2008. The DRM+ broadcasting trial is carried out 
by the DRM Associate Member German State Media Authority of Lower 
Saxony (NLM) and the DRM Associate Member Leibniz University of 
Hanover which one designed and built up the first DRM+ transmitter. The 
results of the DRM+ broadcast measurements will provide a basis for the 
new DRM+ system which standardization is planned in 2008.

The DRM+ trial in Hanover is in line with the field trials scheduled in 
Germany on HD-Radio and DRM+. Both systems allow digital radio 
transmission in FM band. With reference to the final report from the DRM 
Associate Member University of Applied Sciences Kaiserslautern and the 
German State Media Authority of Rhineland-Palatinate (LMK) about the 
interference potential of DRM+ and HD-Radio, the German Federal Network 
Agency has settled licences for forthcoming field trials at an assigned time. 
The recent DRM+ field trial takes place in Hanover until 29 February 2008, 
the HD-Radio TM field trial occurs in Heidelberg from 1 December until 29 
February 2008 and the DRM+ field trial happens in Kaiserslautern from 1 
March to 31 May 2008. The final report is a first technical basis towards 
digitization of FM broadcast radio service. It is available in German under: 
http://www.fhkl.de/~drm.

DRM+ is a narrow band digital radio system and could gradually replace the 
analogue FM radio in the future. DRM+ is appropriate for the transmission of 
local and sub-regional single programme offerings although it can obviously 
be extended to a bigger up to a nationwide coverage as a single-frequency 
network.
