2.3 DAB+ audio changes (eti3_file.dabp_c)
2.3.1 Purpose
This ETI file contains several DAB+ audio streams. The bit rate of these streams is
fixed. The audio configuration within these streams changes every 12s.
The audio configuration (sample rate, SBR mode, channel mode, surround mode) is
signaled at the beginning of a DAB+ audio super frame. As long as the bit rate of a
DAB+ stream is not changed, the audio configuration can be changed without needing
a DAB multiplex reconfiguration. In theory, the audio configuration could be changed
every DAB+ super frame.

urged to plan audio configurations changes carefully (e.g. during a period of
silence).
The MPEG Surround decoder is able to dynamically switch from and to surround
mode.

2.4 DAB+ surround signaling (surround_signaling.dabp_c)
2.4.1 Purpose
This ETI file carries MPEG Surround in DAB+ audio. It reflects the latest changes to
the DAB+ standard ETSI TS 102 563 V1.2.1 (2010-05) with regard to MPEG surround.
These tests allow you to determine, if the following applies:
●
A legacy receiver is able to discard the MPEG Surround data
●
A surround capable receiver is able to decode and present MPEG Surround sound
irrespective of the value of the "mpeg_surround_config" parameter
This file does not contain complete verification patterns for MPEG Surround sound.
Only use this ETI file to verify whether a mono/stereo DAB receiver correctly handles
DAB+ streams with surround. This ETI file is not suitable to verify whether a surround
capable DAB+ receiver is able to correctly decode DAB+ surround audio.

2.4.5 Expected receiver behavior
Every DAB+ capable receiver shall be able to decode all three services in stereo.
Every surround capable DAB+ receiver shall be able to play all three services. Services 'MPS 5.1' and 'MPS 5.1 (other)' carry 5.1 surround sound and shall be rendered
accordingly.
The difference between 'MPS 5.1' and 'MPS 5.1 (other)' is the value of the "mpeg_surround_config" parameter in the DAB+ audio super frame header of the audio stream.
Service '5.1' uses an audio stream that signals "MPEG Surround with 5.1 output channels is used" (value decimal 1, binary 001).
Service '5.1 (other)' uses an audio stream that signals "other mode (the mode can be
derived from the MPEG Surround SpatialSpecificConfig())" (value decimal 7, binary
111).
It is important that an MPEG surround capable receiver uses the "mpeg_surround_config" parameter just as an indication whether MPEG Surround is used at all. If
the value is unequal to 0, MPEG Surround is available and an MPEG surround capable
decoder should decode the MPEG Surround data. The actual value of the "mpeg_surround_config" parameter shall not have any impact on the actual decoding of the
audio. For more details refer to the DAB+ standard ETSI TS 102 563 V1.2.1 (2010-05).
Available stream files
DAB+ CISPR13/14 (eti4_file.dabp_c)
A receiver that is not MPEG Surround capable shall completely ignore the "mpeg_surround_config" parameter and decode the audio as usual.

Service "SLS Slide NOW'' tells the Slideshow decoder to preset the slide as soon
as it is receiver. Slower receivers (or receivers that because of some reception
problem during the first transmission need a slide repetition) might thus show the
slide slightly later than fast receivers (or receiver that get the slide at the first transmission).
Service "SLS Slide ABS'' tells the Slideshow decoder to preset the slide at the end
of the transmission (and possibly repetition) of the slide. All receivers should present the slide at the same time.
Service "SLS HDR NOW'' first broadcasts (and possibly repeats) a slide and then
uses a HeaderUpdate telling the Slideshow decoder to preset the slide as soon as
it is receiver. Slower receivers might thus show the slide slightly later than fast
receivers.
Service "SLS HDR ABS'' first broadcasts (and possibly repeats) a slide and then
uses a HeaderUpdate telling the Slideshow decoder to preset the slide some time
in the future. All receivers should present the slide at the same time.

This BWS contains links to test whether the BWS engine is able to correctly process
absolute links (e.g. "/images/logo.jpg'') and links to directories. If a link to a directory is
selected (e.g. to "/traffic/''), then the receiver should retrieve a file within this directory
that depends on its profile. If the DirectoryIndex parameter within the MOT directory
signals "index_255.html'' for the "Unrestricted (PC) profile'', then such a receiver should
thus retrieve file "/traffic/index_255.html''.

2.6.5.9 Service component "TPEG''
This recording made during the Mobile.Info project starts at 09:00. It starts with a
stream directory. This is repeated every 10 seconds. Its size is 13 bytes.
Within the first minute there is just an SNI component that signals an additional TEC
component. Since there are no TPEG messages available, the TEC component is not
yet within the TPEG stream. This TPEG frame has a size of 86 bytes.
At 09:01 a TEC messages gets available (MessageID = 1, VersionNumber = 0). The
size of the TPEG transport frame increases to 145 bytes.
At 09:02 this message is updated (MessageID = 1, VersionNumber = 1). The size of
the TPEG transport frame remains at 145 bytes.
At 09:03 the message gets a Cancellation (MessageID = 1, VersionNumber = 2); the
size decreases to 113 bytes.
At 09:03:59 the recording ends. In real-life, the message would still be broadcast for 15
minutes and might then be remove from the broadcast cycle.
In this ETI file, the 4 minute cycle starts from scratch.

2.7 DAB reconfiguration (eti_subchannel_reconfig.dabp_c)
2.7.1 Purpose
This ETI file contains two different DAB multiplexes and about every 30 s there will be
a reconfiguration from one multiplex to the other.
Both multiplexes carry the same service, but there are changes to bit rate/protectionlevel and start address within the ETI frame.
Therefore this tests permits to determine whether the receiver is able to handle ensemble reconfigurations on subchannel level. It also permits to tell whether the receiver is
able to update ensemble and service labels.
The file also permits to test whether a receiver is able to follow a service even if the
subchannel carrying a service component of the selected service is changed during a
reconfiguration. Such functionality is essential for the broadcaster for the following
example scenario.
Available stream files
DAB reconfiguration (eti_subchannel_reconfig.dabp_c)
There are two services "Station South" and "Station North". Most of the time, there is
music only and the content is the same for both stations. Therefore it makes sense that
both stations share one (big) subchannel (i.e., the audio subchannel is a service component of both services).
During times where there should be different content for north and south, this (big) subchannel is split into two smaller subchannels. While then one of these stations keeps
the subchannel number of its audio service component (just the size of this subchannel
changes), the other station will use a newly added subchannel with a different subchannel number. For this scenario to work it is therefore essential that a receiver follows a service and not a subchannel during reconfigurations. The user selects services, not subchannels.

2.7.5 Expected receiver behavior
The receiver should be able to play the audio even if the audio subchannel is reconfigured. It should also change the service label according to the audio parameters.
The audio reconfiguration will not be perfectly seamless.
For DAB+, all DAB+ super frames are syntactically correct (no RS, CRC or fire code
errors). However, since the audio decoder needs some time after startup with the new
configuration, a very short audible artifact might occur. Note that the DAB+ standard
urges the broadcaster to change audio parameters only in periods of silence.

For Layer II, the standard permits to seamlessly switch to new audio parameters. However, the current implementation of the DAB ContentServer will cause a short dropout
(concealed by the audio decoder). The very first two audio frames (e.g. 48 ms for 48
kHz sampling rate; 96 ms for 24 kHz sampling rate) of the new configuration will be
concealed since their ScfCRC will fail.
Note that if the number of CUs used for the layer II audio subchannel is increased or
remains the same, then the audio reconfiguration occurs at the reconfiguration instant.
If the number of CUs used for the layer II audio subchannel is decreased, then the
audio reconfiguration occurs 15 DAB frames (i.e. 15 * 24 ms) ahead of the reconfiguration instant
Service "Journaline Ticker" (service identifier 0xe0d00128) and Service "Subch.
change" (Service identifier 0xd127) do not change subchannel parameters (i.e., they
keep subchannel bit rate and protection level); however, their SAD (start address)
changes and their subchannel identifier.
It is essential that a receiver tuned to one of these services is able to follow the service
even if the subchannel is changed during a reconfiguration.
A short drop out of the audio might be acceptable (provided no noise is generated).
However, the receiver should switch very fast (and automatically!) to the new subchannel.
Sub channel 14 changes from (joint) stereo to mono and back. Such a change is permitted, but some decoders seem to have problem with such a scenario.
