1 RDS/RBDS Tagged Program Ancillary ODA proposal Revision.4 (preliminary) 11/9/24 Prepared by: Seth Stroh Senior Engineer, the radio experience RDS/RBDS Tagged Program Ancillary ODA proposal (the radio experience) Page 1 of 17

2 The Tagged Program Ancillary ODA Specified herein is an efficient, versatile and extensible system for the transmission of program ancillary data in VHF/FM terrestrial radio broadcast. The system is realized in the creation of an RDS/RBDS Open Data Application (ODA) and thereby makes use of (is fully compatible with) existing infrastructure (ODA enabled RDS generators) as well as the RDS chipsets commonly used in consumer radio receivers. The specified system is in many ways analogous to the ID3v2 tagging system developed around and popularized by Internet audio and thus the name: the Tagged Program Ancillary (TPA) ODA. The most significant benefit of TPA over traditional RDS data casting is clear delineation of each data element (in example: the artist name, song title, composer, etc.) Additional benefits of TPA include the ability to exceeded traditional RDS information carrying limitations (64 character fixed length radiotext), the ability to flag visibility of individual data elements, and extended functions to improve display update performance in receivers. Note that to process and display data sent using an ODA, a radio receiver must be designed with advance knowledge of that ODA. As such, data sent using the TPA best serves as an enabler for a new generation of radio equipped consumer electronic devices. The transmission of an ODA does not in any way preclude the use of traditional RDS features (such as radiotext or PS) and compatibility with existing receivers is also thereby assured. Central to any ODA is the RDS group type 3A, the application identification for open data. The generic form of group type 3A is depicted in the following illustration: TP Checkword Group Checkword Checkword Checkword PI code + type PTY + Message bits + Application ID + offset A code offset B offset C offset D 1 1 A A A A B Application Group Type Code Figure 1: Application identification for Open data (group type 3A) Group type 3A is essentially a notification to the receiver that this broadcast carries data for a particular ODA. The Application ID, sent in block 4 of the 3A group, uniquely identifies the ODA being broadcast. If the data to be broadcast is no greater than 16 bits in length, that data can be transmitted using a single 3A group. In this first case, the actual data is sent in block 3, the message bits. If the data to be broadcast is greater than 16 bits in length, the first 16 bits are sent in block 3 of the 3A group and any data beyond those first 16 bits is sent in a second group known as the application group type. Selection of application group type is left to the broadcaster in order to prevent group allocation conflicts when several different ODA are carried on a single broadcast. The receiver examines the 5 least significant bits of group 3A block 2, the application group type code, to determine the group used for transmission of any data beyond the first 16 message bits. If this second group is not used, the application group type code is set to. For reasons of efficiency, the TPA requires the selection of a type A group for data transmission. Group type 11A and 12A are unconditionally available for use by open data applications. Additional group types are often available but are subject to the usage of specific RDS/RBDS features by the broadcaster. (In example, group type 5A is available for use by an open data application if the transparent data channel is not in use by the broadcaster. Group type 6A is available if the in-house application is not in use. Group type 7A is available if the radio paging service is not in use. Group type 8A is available if the traffic message channel is not in use, etc.) RDS/RBDS Tagged Program Ancillary ODA proposal (the radio experience) Page 2 of 17

3 The TPA makes use of group type 3A in two distinct ways: to transmit an extended function or to announce the transmission of a data element. Usage is indicated by the state of a flag, the XF or extended function flag, carried in the block 3 message bits of the 3A group. For the transmission of an extended function, the XF flag is set to 1 and the TPA defines the remainder of the message bits as depicted in the following illustration: TP Checkword Group Checkword Checkword Checkword PI code + type PTY + Message bits + Application ID + offset A code offset B offset C offset D 1 1 Application group type code XD function data XI function index Sequence number 1 XF (extended function) flag Figure 2.1: Application identification for TPA extended functions (group type 3A) The extended function message bits are described as follows: XF, the extended function flag, is always set to 1 when transmitting an extended function. XI, the extended function index, is a 4 bit binary number (a nibble) identifying the specific function the receiver should execute. The 4 bit index allows a maximum of 16 extended functions to be defined by the TPA. XD, the extended function data, is an 8 bit binary number (a byte) passed as a parameter to the identified function. In the case of a function that does not require a parameter the XD byte is set to. The sequence number is a 3 bit binary number (a counter) that is incremented each time there is a significant change in the TPA data being transmitted. Specifically, the sequence number is incremented at the start of each new broadcast event. (For a typical music station, a broadcast event is defined as the start of a new song, the start of an advertisement, etc.) A 3 bit sequence number allows for a count range of to The sequence number wraps around to when incremented past 7. Should a receiver experience intermittent dropout of the RDS signal, the sequence number of the next 3A group successfully decoded can be examined to determine if a new event started during the dropout condition. At this time, there are no extended functions defined requiring more than 16 bits of data. As such, the application group type code is set to in figure 2.1. Two extended functions are defined in this version of the TPA specification: XI- ( ) is the radiotext check function. For this function, XD carries a CRC-8 of the radiotext message currently being broadcast. The receiver may use this CRC to validate its own radiotext buffer. The CRC-8 is calculated over the entire length of the radiotext buffer. The TPA allows association between data elements and the radiotext buffer (a data elements may be defined as a substring of the radiotext buffer.) By transmitting a CRC of the entire radiotext message, the receiver gains confidence that its own radiotext buffer is valid and that it can correctly associated the radiotext with TPA data elements received. This mechanism also allows for faster display updates as a receiver might otherwise wait for a complete repetition of the data to validate reception. XI-1 ( 1 ) is an explicit clear display function. XD is unused by this function and should be set to. This function is a notification to the receiver that the broadcast event has changed and that it should clear its display of potentially stale data. This function is normally sent once at the start of a new event. Should it be missed due to loss of signal, the receiver may examine the sequence number to detect the start of a new broadcast event.

4 For announcement of data element transmission, the XF flag is set to and the TPA defines the remainder of the group 3A message bits as depicted in the following illustration: TP Checkword Group Checkword Checkword Checkword PI code + type PTY + Message bits + Application ID + offset A code offset B offset C offset D 1 1 n n n n Application group type code Element ID Element length (groups in transmission) Sequence number XF (extended function) flag ED (element descriptor) flag EV (element visibility) flag Figure 2.2: Application identification for TPA data element announcement (group type 3A) The data element announcement message bits are described as follows: XF, the extended function flag, is always set to when transmitting a data element announcement. Element ID is a 6 bit binary number identifying element type announced by the TPA transmission. (In example, an Element ID of announces a song title data element.) The 6 bit Element ID allows a maximum of 64 element types to be defined by the TPA. A list of element types currently defined by the TPA is presented in the next section. Element length is a 4 bit binary number (a nibble) indicating the number of additional groups (application groups) required to define the specific data element announced by this transmission. The element data itself is contained in these additional groups. As such, the TPA will transmit at least one additional group (beyond the 3A announcement group) to define an announced data element. An element length of indicates that 1 application group will be sent in defining this element. An element length of indicates that 16 application groups will be sent which is the largest supported transmission length. The application group type code indicates the group used to transmit the element data. Because the TPA always requires at least one group (beyond the 3A announcement group) to define a data element, the application group type code will always be set for an announced data element. The TPA requires a type A group for element data transmission but the actual group selection is left to the broadcaster as discussed in the introduction. The sequence number is a 3 bit binary number (a counter) that is incremented at the start of each new broadcast event. (A complete discussion of sequence number is included in the previous section on extended functions.) EV, the element visibility flag, is normally set to 1 and indicates to the receiver that the announced data element should be viewable by the end user. In certain circumstances a broadcaster may with to transmit a data element that is not directly meaningful to the end user. In this exception case, the EV flag is set to and the receiver is not to display this data element. ED, the element descriptor flag, is normally set to and indicates that the default descriptor text should be used by the receiver in describing the data element. The default descriptor text for each element type is presented in the next section as part of the element ID list. A receiver makes use of the element descriptor text as part of its menu system allowing the end user to easily select (by name) the data elements they prefer to display. The default descriptor text is normally implemented as a ROM lookup table within the receiver. [Continued ] RDS/RBDS Tagged Program Ancillary ODA proposal (the radio experience) Page 4 of 17

5 [ED flag continued] In certain circumstances the broadcaster may wish to override the default descriptor text for a particular element type. (In example, a unique commerce ID number might be transmitted as part of the TPA data. It is useful to convey the type of ID, such as ISRC, that is being transmitted. This is accomplished by sending an alternate descriptor as part of the element data.) To override a default descriptor, the ED flag is set to 1 and the alternate descriptor text is sent as part of the element definition. In this exception case, the first byte of element data is a CRC-8 and the second byte indicates the length of the alternate element descriptor. The actual element descriptor text starts at the 3rd byte and, finally, the element definition follows the descriptor text. A receiver with extremely limited memory resources can ignore the alternate descriptor text by using the descriptor length byte to skip that text. In the nominal case (ED flag set to ) the length byte and the descriptor text are omitted from the sequence. See the example section for specific illustration of this concept. For the application group used in transmitting the element data, the TPA defines the message bits as depicted in the following illustration: TP PI code Checkword Group Checkword Checkword Checkword + type PTY + Message bits + Message bits + offset A code offset B offset C' offset D Application grouptypecode A/Bflag Segment address n n n n c c c c b b b b b b b b C C1 C2 C3 1 C4 C5 C6 C C6 C61 C62 C63 Figure 2.3: Application group type for TPA data element transmission (group type na) The actual element data is transmitted in segments (one segment per application group) using a data format analogous to radiotext, as transmitted in the 2A group. A maximum of 16 segments can be transmitted in defining a data element and 4 characters are defined per segment. The maximum length of a data element is therefor 64 characters. The A/B flag is set equal to the least significant bit of the sequence number from the 3A group announcing this data element. As such, the A/B flag builds an additional association between application groups and the announcement groups transmitted by the TPA. As with the sequence number, the receiver may use the A/B flag as an indication that the broadcast event has changed. The segment address is a 4 bit binary number (a nibble) indicating the data segment being transmitted. The segment address always starts at and increments by 1 for each additional segment required in defining the element. The total number of segments required to define an element is indicated by the element length in the announcing 3A group. A gap in the segment address sequence is a good indication to the receiver that part of the element data has been lost.

6 Data element details Because the radiotext message typically contains at least some of the data elements to be transmitted by the TPA, the TPA allows an association to be made between data elements and radiotext. (That is to say, data elements may be defined as substrings of the radiotext message.) This method of element definition decreases the bandwidth required by the TPA if a good portion of the required data can be extracted from the radiotext message. Alternately, data elements can be defined entirely by TPA transmissions and in this case radiotext may serve as a completely independent message channel. See the examples section for specific illustration of each method. In either case, the first character of element data is always a CRC-8 byte calculated across the remainder of the characters in the element definition. (The maximum usable length of a data element is therefor 63 characters.) Any unused characters in the last segment of a data element are null () padded. If an alternate descriptor is sent (this is the exception case, ED flag set to 1 ) the second byte of the element data indicates the length of the descriptor text. The descriptor text starts at the 3rd byte of and is followed by the actual element definition. In this case, the CRC-8 calculation is inclusive of the descriptor length byte, the descriptor text, and the element definition. If an alternate descriptor is not sent (this is the nominal case, ED flag set to ) the element definition starts at the second byte and the CRC-8 calculation is only inclusive of the element definition. The element definition itself may consist of a text string transmitted within the TPA, an association to the radiotext message (a substring), or a combination of these two. To limit the amount of parsing required on the part of the receiver, association to the radiotext message is limited to a single substring per data element! A radiotext substring within a data element is instantiated by the ASCII STX control character. (This is decimal value 2.) This control character is chosen so as not to conflict with the selection of international font tables. The control character is followed by two parameter bytes: the start position within the radiotext message and the length of the substring to be extracted. The MSB of each parameter byte is set (equivalent to adding 128 to the start position and the length) in order to create an easily identified byte sequence. Additional text may appear before, after, or on both sides of the substring within a data element. Data element types Data elements are assigned a 6 bit binary ID number in the range of $ ( ) to $3F ( ). The following table gives assignment to 15 of the 64 possible element types. The remaining 49 element types are available for future assignment. Each entry in the element type table consists of the following: ID, default descriptor, level, ID3, ID3v2 frame description, and notes as to the intended use of this element type. ID is the 6 bit ID number (in hexdecimal) assigned to the element. The default descriptor is a default text string used by a receiver to describe the element when an alternate descriptor is not broadcast as part of the element definition. Level is the transmission priority of this element type. (Level 1 items are transmitted first followed by level 2, etc.) ID3 is a reference to the ID3v2 frame of rough equivalence to this element type. The entries in the element table are arranged into logical groups. A group is a set of related items that a listener might switch between on a radio display. (For example: title to subtitle to genre ) The elements within each group are sorted starting with the most relevant at level 1. By prioritizing the transmission of elements by level, a receiver with limited memory resources will fill its internal buffers with the most relevant elements first. Advanced elements such as URLs or unique ID numbers are sent last with the assumption that an advanced receiver capable of processing these elements will have the memory available to do so. By design, level 1 items are the most likely elements to be utilized by broadcasters. In most instance level 2 and particularly level 3 could be considered trivia information that is useful for certain types of content such as live recordings or covers.
