Data services on DAB work before they go in the official specs. And
sending HE AAC audio streams over DAB would effectively be a data
service.

Do you really think broadcasters and manufactorers of receivers will start developing chips in mass-quantities before it is "semented" into a specification which will not change afterwards?




(And it's not because you find a couple of references on the internet it
*might* be interesting to add to the specs, that it is).



It said this:
http://www.worlddab.org/images/1-1Frank_Herrmann.pdf

(I know, I read it too).


"DAB Perspectives based on AVDS Developments
* Pave way for new audio codecs (e.g. HE AAC v2)
* Convert DAB into an "All IP System" (incl. Audio)"


Note the word "Perspectives".


The document talks about 3 systems: DMB, IP-based WM9/10 and "IP-based, 3G-aligned, DVB-H alligned".

And, after that, there is a list of "perspectives". You do have the habbit it reading document the way it does fit your ideas the best, do you. You see "perspectives" and read "it is for sure".

What's the procedure inside the worlddab forum to get a technical proposal into the offical worlddab/ETSI specifications?

Kristoff, that doesn't seem to me to be that "it *might* be interesting
to add to the specs", it looks far more likely that it will be added to
the spec than that.


To you, it looks that way as that is the way you like it to say.




Anycase, as long as this is not in the officials specs ... it will not be used for mass-broadcasting.


Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
