Abstract

A digital broadcasting process, suitable for digital audiobroadcast, comprises encoding the data in the form of binary words using a redundant code to obtain a sequence of modulation symbols and transmitting the symbols in a plurality of subchannels at different frequencies. The symbols are time interlaced with such a distribution that two adjacent symbols cannot be transmitted in time succession and at the same one of the frequencies. Preferably, a Viterbi decoder is used. Particular construction of an emitter and a receiver are also described.
