The complete global DRM standard, with standard enhancement to include DRM+ for broadcasting at frequencies up to 174 MHz, and DRM Receiver Profiles were both unveiled at IBC this week.

At the DRM Consortiumâs annual networking event on Friday 11th September at the IBC âBeachâ, senior members of the Consortium provided updates on recent DRM developments including the availability of commercial receivers to the large audience.

Event guests from around the world were given further updates from countries such as India and Russia where DRM30 has already been officially declared as the system of choice for digital switch-over and heard reports about the recent DRM+ test transmissions that took place in Paris. There were live demos of the complete DRM standard with its unique features including DRM+ in Surround Sound. Guests experienced the live broadcast of the BBC-DW DRM channel for Europe on Uniwave and Himalaya receivers.
