Radio data system (RDS) - VHF/FM sound broadcasting in the frequency range from 64,0 MHz to 108,0 MHz - Part 2: Message format: Coding and definition of RDS features

IEC 62106-2:2018 defines the coding and definition of features for the Radio Data System (RDS).IEC 62106-2:2018 together with IEC 62106-1, IEC 62106-3, IEC 62106-4, IEC 62106-5 and IEC 62106-6, cancels and replaces IEC 62106:2015, and constitutes a technical revision.This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC 62106:2015:? Provision has been made to carry RDS on multiple data-streams (RDS2).? Data in the additional data-streams is using a newly defined group type C data structure.? AF coding below 87,6 MHz (down to 64,1 MHz) using ODA-AID 0x6365 (see IEC 62106-6).? Long PS (UTF-8) support has been added using group type 15A.? Coding for the following applications is no longer detailed in the RDS standard as these can use in future the ODA concept: EWS, TDC, IH and RP.? Obsolete and no longer part of the RDS standard are: MS (Group 0A, 0B and 15B) certain DI codes (mono/stereo, artificial head, compression), Language code, and PIN (Group 1A).

Radio data system (RDS) - VHF/FM sound broadcasting in the frequency range from 64,0 MHz to 108,0 MHz - Part 2: Message format: coding and definition of RDS features

IEC 62106-8:2021 defines the coding and definition of features for the Radio Data System (RDS). IEC 62106-8:2021 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2018. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC 62106‑2:2018: a) Subclause 4.2.4 has been added; b) Tables 1 and 13 have been modified; c) The new function RDS2 file transfer has been added and it is detailed in Annex C; this uses a CRC-16, which is specified in Annex D.
