Title: ●Modifying Rules for FM Terrestrial Digital Audio Broadcasting Systems, MB Docket No. 22-405 
Abstract:

In this proceeding, the Commission proposes changes to the digital audio broadcasting technical rules that would permit additional FM stations to increase FM hybrid digital effective radiated power beyond the existing levels without the need for individual Commission authorization.  In addition, the Commission propose to allow a digital FM station to operate with asymmetric power on the digital sidebands.  These rule changes are intended to improve digital FM signal quality and minimize the effect of the digital FM station signal on adjacent channel FM transmissions.
