ABU convention to help radio broadcasters decide on going digital
The switch to digital txion by radio broadcasters will be explored at
length during the upcoming 2nd ABU Digital Radio Convention, which will
see some 40 experts from Asia and around the world leading the various
discussions and workshops.
Aiming to help radio broadcasters in the Asia-Pacific region to determine
when to make the digital move and complete the transition, the four-day
event will be held in Kuala Lumpur from 14 August.
The convention and workshops will not only provide updates on digital
radio developments, but will focus on the implementation and application
issues - decisions on business factors, content production facilities,
txion standards/systems, receiver developments, consumer take-up and
switch-over issues.
"An increasing number of radio broadcasters in the region are embracing
the transition to digital txion. This convention will provide an excellent
platform for broadcasters and industry players to network and understand
the business issues as well as new technical developments," said ABU
Secretary-General, David Astley.
"We would particularly like to address those issues that seem to be
holding up the wide-scale adoption of digital radio technologies in the
Asia-Pacific."
The principal sponsor of the event is Harris Corporation. Other sponsors
and exhibitors include AMP, Broadcast Electronics, Broadcast Australia,
iBiquity Digital Corporation, Thomson Broadcast & Multimedia AG, Digital
Radio Mondiale (DRM), Commercial Radio Australia, THL Australia, Go-
Mobile, WorldSpace, VT Communications, Klotz Digital, Digital Integrated
System Sdn Bhd (DIS), on and DMB.
