DABSTOR-Rx Off-air Logger and Monitor Demonstrated at IBC 2008

In a major advance in professional DAB/DAB+/DMB monitoring receivers, SomerData is demonstrating off-air Ensemble Logging and Ensemble Monitoring at IBC 2008 (Stand Number 8.C97).

Designed for broadcasters and network operators, the DABSTOR-Rx Monitoring Receiver provides evidence of transmission, with live monitoring, logging and off-line analysis of a complete DAB/DAB+/DMB Ensemble. SomerData's Engineers have achieved this innovation by regenerating the ensemble transport stream (not normally available in DAB/DAB+/DMB receivers) to provide compatibility with SomerData's existing head-end Logger and Monitor applications. The Ensemble Logger application provides continuous capture using sequential-file endless-loop recording, which is a technique originally developed by SomerData for a data communications logger product in 1998.

In addition to the new Ensemble Logger and Ensemble Monitor options, users are able to simultaneously view multiple Audio, Video and Data services from a single receiver. DABSTOR-Rx eliminates the need to use several receivers per DAB/DAB+/DMB Ensemble, thereby freeing-up valuable space and resources. Combined with unique remote monitoring capabilities – enabling viewing stations at one or more locations across a multicast network – DABSTOR-Rx sets a new benchmark in professional service monitoring products for broadcasters and network service providers.
