Abstract :
This paper presents field measurements results of minimum signal to noise ratio required to achieve a threshold BER based on the first medium wave Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) measurement campaign in Spain. The main goal of these measurements has been to compare the laboratory simulated values recommended by the ITU with field measurements using real transmission and reception systems and real propagation and reception environments.
