Larger program offer in Regensburg

The program offer of the European Mobile Media Project MI FRIENDS in Regensburg has been enlarged. Since the beginning of June three video channels with a new program structure and a visual radio-channel were broadcasted. Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) is a technology based on the digital radio standard DAB and enables the broadcast of radio, television or hybrid forms on mobile devices, especially mobile phones. The programs can be received in Greater Regensburg on band III, channel 12A.

Therefore the results of the research can statistically be equally applied to other European cities and regions as well.
