A DAB+ trial is currently on air in Luxembourg, covering 75% of the population, and regular DAB+ services are set to be rolled out in 2021.
In December 2020, Luxembourg's Department of Media, Telecommunications and Digital Policy along with the Broadcasting Center Europe (BCE), published a research aimed at identifying the various requirements needed to deploy DAB+ in Luxembourg.
The findings of the research will now be analysed, and followed with a timeline for the rollout of DAB+ services in 2021. In September 2020, public broadcaster RTL announced plans to launch regular DAB+ services in Luxembourg in 2021.

BCE, a subsidiary of Luxembourg broadcaster RTL, conducted DAB+ tests in 2018-2019 on Channel 7D, with two programmes on air. The test signals reached as far as the Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland regions of Germany, and over the Belgian border.
BCE started DAB+ test transmissions again in September 2020. Two sites are being used for the transmissions, and all local radio stations across the country are taking part in the trial.
