Harris Corporation has announced that Fatima Broadcasting International of Thailand has begun multicasting using Harris® HD Radio™ transmitters — becoming one of the first HD Radio™ broadcast services in the Asia-Pacific region.
In 2006, Fatima Broadcasting International won the rights to a broadcast over a countrywide sub-carrier service from 85 FM stations of the Public Relations Department of Thailand’s government. The broadcaster opted to use the in-band, on channel (IBOC) implementation of the HD Radio™ broadcasting standard to broadcast supplementary services alongside the main channel programme service — known as multicasting in the HD Radio™ standard. Fatima now broadcasts the secondary programme services alongside the government’s main channel FM programming.
