2 About the AM/FM/RDS Option
Use the AM/FM/RDS coder option to generate broadcast signals in FM and AM.
In FM, you can generate a mono or a stereo signal. For stereo signals generated
according to the multiplex method, an RDS coder is available and is used to code fixed
data. Many parameters can be changed over wide setting ranges. See Chapter 4,
"Audio FM Configuration and Settings", on page 17.
In AM, you can generate amplitude modulated signals. See Chapter 3, "Audio AM Con-
figuration and Settings", on page 12.

Preemphasis
Sets the preemphasis factor for the signal to noise ratio improvement.
To improve the SNR, the technique boosts high-frequency components at the modula-
tor and reduces them at the demodulator.
Example:
The level increase at an input frequency of 15 kHz and a pre-emphasis of 50 μs is
13.66 dB. At a pre-emphasis of 75 μs, the SNR is 17.07 dB.
The audio input level for audio generator and audio player therefore needs to be

PI
Sets the program identification, that is a 16-bit value in hexadecimal representation.
The usage differs for RDS and RBDS operation:
●
RDS: The PI consists of a code enabling the receiver to distinguish between countries and regions in that the same program is transmitted, and the programs themselves.
It 16-bit value comprises the country code (bit 15 to bit 12), the program type (bit 11
to bit 8) and the program reference number (bit 7 to bit 0).
●
RBDS: In North america, the program identification code is used differently. In part,
the broadcasting stations define the program identification code themselves.
The PI is transmitted in each group type. For A group types, the PI is transmitted in
block 1. For B group types, it is transmitted in block 1 and block 3.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BB:RADio:FM:RDS:PI on page 67
PS
Sets the program service name.
Group types "0A" or "0B" transmit the PS in addition to the PI. The PS is transmitted in
block 4 in both version A and version B.
You can enter an 8-character PS code, e.g. "R&S SMCV". For allowed character sets,
see Figure A-1.
Note: Not all receivers can display the full character set. For an overview of the dis-
played information, see Table A-1 and Table A-2.

●
Use characters as shown in Figure A-1. It takes 16 group types "2A" to transmit
64 characters (eight characters per group type). Transmission can take time, if there
are several group types specified in "Group Sequence".
Further input inverts the A/B text flag in group type "2A" block 1 or "2B" block 2, signaling to the receiver that another RT is being carried. Sending the RT requires group
type "2A" or "2B" specified in "Group Sequence".
If more than 32 characters are entered and group type "2B" is specified under "Group
Sequence", the radio text is transmitted as far as the 32nd character and the rest of the

"B"
Alternative frequencies are transmitted using method B in the following cases:
●
The transmitter and its associated repeaters have more than 25
alternative frequencies.
●
Several local regions have different program content.
In such cases, the respective alternative frequencies are transmitted
as alternatives to several transmission frequencies. Frequency information is transmitted in the form of frequency pairs, giving the set
transmission frequency and the associated alternative frequency in
each case.
The sequence of the frequencies is important in this method. Sometime the higher frequency is transmitted first, which refers to a frequency having the same program content (ascending). If the lower
frequency is transmitted first, a regional variant using the alternative
frequency is being transmitted (descending).
Frequencies from the LW and MW bands are not supported.
Example: Applying method B
A list containing 5 different alternative frequencies is transmitted
using method B.
Block 3 of the first group type "0A" specifies the number of frequencies that follow and the transmission frequency to which the alternative frequencies are referenced. The number of frequencies to follow
is therefore 11.

EON-related information is used to update information saved in the receiver about pro-
grams other than the program being received (if other networks are enabled).
In addition to the alternative frequencies, program name, traffic program identification
and traffic announcement identification, you can also transmit the program type and
program contribution identification for all the other program chains.
Reference to each respective program is provided by the associated PI. The link information enables the receiver to handle several program chains as a single chain during
shared program times.

6 Remote-Control Commands
The following commands are required to generate signals with the AM/FM/RDS option
in a remote environment. We assume that the R&S SMCV100B has already been set
up for remote operation in a network as described in the R&S SMCV100B documentation. A knowledge about the remote control operation and the SCPI command syntax
are assumed.
Conventions used in SCPI command descriptions
For a description of the conventions used in the remote command descriptions, see
section "Remote-Control Commands" in the R&S SMCV100B user manual.
Common suffixes
The following common suffixes are used in the remote commands:

Programming examples
This description provides simple programming examples. The purpose of the examples
is to present all commands for a given task. In real applications, one would rather
reduce the examples to an appropriate subset of commands.
The programming examples have been tested with a software tool which provides an
environment for the development and execution of remote tests. To keep the example
as simple as possible, only the "clean" SCPI syntax elements are reported. Non-executable command lines (e.g. comments) start with two // characters.
At the beginning of the most remote control program, an instrument preset/reset is recommended to set the instrument to a definite state. The commands *RST and
SYSTem:PRESet are equivalent for this purpose. *CLS also resets the status registers
and clears the output buffer.
