4.1 Introduction
Emergency warning systems take many forms, originating with the ringing of bells, messages from town criers and activation of warning sirens. In the modern age with extensive communication networks seemingly providing endless connectivity, it is easy to forget that natural disasters often play havoc with infrastructure...

4.2 System architecture
The DAB EWS consists of one or more DAB ensembles that carry specific signalling that both identifies the ensembles as participating in an EWS and also provides the signalling information to allow receivers to respond. Some ensembles will carry services that provide emergency alert messages, whilst others will carry on...

4.3 Receiver behaviour
The required receiver behaviour is defined in clause 7 of the present document. Manufacturers are able to check that their products conform to the requirements by performing the tests specified in ETSI TS 104 090 [i.1].

5.1 Baseline requirements
An ensemble that participates in an EWS shall conform to the requirements of ETSI EN 300 401 [1]. It shall signal the date and time using FIG 0/10 in the long form. The date-time information provided in FIG 0/10 shall be accurate, which requires connection to a reliable source of real-time, such as GNSS or NTP. The tim...

5.2 Information sources
An EWS ensemble that carries alert messages takes responsibility for the content and status settings of alert messages. The source or sources of information that are used to create an alert message and its signalling are not defined by the present document, but the following types of information are typically required:...

5.3 Receiver considerations
Ideally, all ensembles covering a particular location will participate in the DAB EWS. However, it is recognized that there may be reasons why this does not happen. The services carried in ensembles that do not participate should not be excluded from the receiver's service list, but the user shall be made aware when tu...

6.1 Introduction
The need to signal emergency warning alerts is unpredictable, and it is possible for there to be different incidents occurring in the same geographical location at the same time. However, although these incidents may be simultaneous, only one alert message can be carried in an ensemble at a time: therefore management o...

There may be a single national emergency centre, or there may be multiple agencies providing different kinds of data concerning weather events, security events, industrial accidents, etc. Wherever the data come from, they need to include sufficient detai...

6.2.2 Incident identification
The ensemble that carries an alert message is responsible for setting the Incident Identifier. It is expected that in some cases, the source data will provide a reliable source of incident identification and the alert provider can use this information to allocate and maintain the Incident Identifier. In other cases, th...

6.2.3 Incident stage
When incident identification is supported by the alerting ensemble, users may be able to instruct their receiver to ignore alerts which are signalled as a repeat or update of an ongoing incident. This may be an appropriate action if the user considers that whilst the alert is geographically close to them, they are not ...

However, a specific alert area can be signalled by including location codes. To permit complex alert areas to be signalled, multiple location codes can be provided: the alert ...

6.6.3 Alert group is not empty
When the alert group is not empty it means that there are alerts that require evaluation by receivers and consequently Trigger phase signalling shall be provided (tuned and/or other ensembles). Except when the seconds count is 59, the alert group shall be signalled completely. When the seconds count is 59, alert group ...

6.7 Signal chain tests
If testing of the EWS is required in a similar way to a fire alarm drill, then the same kind of procedure for planning and informing the public is required so as not to cause unnecessary alarm. In this case an alert with the Stage field set to either Level 1 Start or Level 2 Start shall be used, with the alert message ...

7.1 Receiver types
It is envisaged that the addition of EWS functionality in a receiver does not reduce the design options manufacturers may use. Therefore, many types of receivers are feasible. The minimum requirements for receivers are the subject of ETSI TS 104 090 [i.1]. Different types of receivers will have different operating mode...

7.2.1 Single DAB tuner receivers
Single tuner receivers can only respond to EWS alert messages when they are tuned to an EWS ensemble. This means that if the user selects a DAB service carried on an ensemble that does not participate in the EWS, no alert signalling will be received and so the receiver will be unaware of alerts. This also applies if th...

7.2.2.1 Introduction
DAB receivers come in many forms - some are DAB only, whilst others include clock functions, FM reception, and other audio playback.

7.2.2.2 Sleep mode
In this mode the receiver is not outputting audio. This is the lowest power mode. ETSI ETSI TS 104 089 V1.1.1 (2024-09) 20 During sleep mode, the receiver shall ensure that a timer operates, synchronized to the time provided by FIG 0/10. The function of the timer is to initiate a transition to monitor mode such that th...

7.2.2.3 Monitor mode
In this mode the receiver is not outputting audio. The DAB tuner is tuned to an EWS ensemble and is able to decode the FIC. If FIC reception errors are experienced, the receiver shall not return to sleep mode prematurely: Trigger phase signalling repeats continuously for 5 seconds and during this period the receiver sh...

7.2.2.4 Audio mode
In this mode the receiver is outputting audio. The receiver enters audio mode as a response to a user action. In audio mode, the receiver shall as far as possible use the DAB tuner to evaluate FIG 0/15 for matching alert messages. If access to the DAB tuner is not available, or if the user has selected a DAB service wh...

7.2.3 Initialization procedure
When the receiver is switched on for the first time (or after a system reset), it shall determine its location, either by requesting the user to input the corresponding DAB location code (see annex A), or by another means. If the only means the receiver has for knowing its location is via a user entered location code, ...

7.3.1 Tuner capability
An EWS mobile receiver requires a minimum of two DAB tuners. This allows it to play out audio and at the same time monitor other DAB ensembles for alert signalling and to determine whether a matched alert message is receivable.

7.3.2 Location awareness
A mobile receiver shall have a means to know its geographical location to a precision of at least 100 m. Typically, a GNSS receiver will be suitable.

7.3.3 Audio mode
An in-vehicle receiver shall be active whenever the vehicle is occupied. A mobile receiver that is not an in-vehicle receiver may offer options for availability of the EWS function. The receiver shall monitor the FIC of an EWS ensemble on a regular cycle to evaluate FIG 0/15 for matching alert messages. If the EWS ense...

7.4.3 Monitor mode user controls
A user function may be offered to users to instruct a receiver with sleep mode to evaluate a Level 2 alert as if it was signalled as the corresponding Level 1 alert. This could be linked to the time of day, so that Level 2 alerts signalled during certain hours only are evaluated when the receiver is in monitoring mode....

7.5.1 Introduction
Alert matching shall be performed either when the received FIG 0/15 OE flag is 0 and the Phase field is set to "Trigger", or when the OE flag is 1 (all OE signalling is Trigger phase signalling). Various criteria exist to determine if a signalled alert message will be played out: only when all the matching criteria are...

7.5.2 Receivability matching
If the OE flag is set to 0 then the alert message is carried in the tuned ensemble. The Id field identifies the subchannel that carries the audio of the alert message. If the subchannel is present in the FIG 0/1 MCI, receivability matching is positive, if not, it is negative. ETSI ETSI TS 104 089 V1.1.1 (2024-09) 23 NO...
