====Reception quality==== The DAB standard integrates features to reduce the negative consequences of [[multipath propagation|multipath]] fading and [[signal noise]], which afflict existing [[analog signal|analogue]] systems. Also, as DAB transmits digital audio, there is no hiss with a weak signal, which can happen on FM. However, radios in the fringe of a DAB signal can experience a "bubbling mud" sound interrupting the audio or the audio cutting out altogether. Due to sensitivity to [[Doppler shift]] in combination with [[multipath propagation]], DAB reception range (but not audio quality) is reduced when travelling speeds of more than 120 to 200 km/h, depending on carrier frequency.<ref name="tech.ebu.ch">{{cite journal |title=Digital Audio Broadcasting β radio now and for the future |journal=EBU Technical Review |issue=265 |publisher=[[European Broadcasting Union]] |date=Autumn 1995 |pages=2β27 |url=https://tech.ebu.ch/docs/techreview/trev_265-kozamernik.pdf |access-date=14 January 2022 |archive-date=11 August 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170811000748/https://tech.ebu.ch/docs/techreview/trev_265-kozamernik.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref>
