Abstract:
We introduce a novel approach to in-vehicle radio entertainment platforms. Using a prototypical automotive setup for car-radio reception, we evaluate a Digital Audio Broadcasting receiver implemented as a Software-Defined Radio. The radio runs as an application on a low-cost x86 device. Furthermore, we distribute the digital audio stream and control information via a standard Internet Protocol/Ethernet link instead of a proprietary automotive field bus technology. Thus, the car demonstrator distinguishes from today's approaches to automotive radio entertainment by increased flexibility on the computation as well as on the communication side, together with potential savings on costs.
