DAB+ introduces ASA warning system

04.10.2024 - Austria Austria

DAB+ digital radio is taking a significant step towards greater safety for the public. The new Automatic Safety Alert system (ASA), formerly known as EWS (Emergency Warning System), was officially launched in August. RTR (Rundfunk und Telekom Regulierungs-GmbH) will provide detailed information on the new ASA alert system in a workshop entitled ‘Radio and mobile communications - a strong duo for digital disaster control’ on 23 October 2024 as part of its convergent competence centre. The speakers will be Roman Bayer from the Ministry of the Interior and Hermann Bühler, who are both involved in the current ‘AT-Alert’ warning system project. In addition, Olaf Korte (Fraunhofer Institute) will be on site to give a presentation as an expert on the DAB+ standard and the current ASA extension in particular.
