The DSM Subcommittee of the NRSC focuses on digital information that radio broadcasters send to their audiences via the growing number of data transmission technologies in use today. It is a “formulating group” with the ability to develop and adopt NRSC standards, guidelines and reports. This group was formed in September 2018 by a “re-formulation” of the Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS) Subcommittee.
Closely aligned with the DSM Subcommittee is The RDS Forum, an industry-sponsored group with headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland responsible for maintaining the RDS Standard (IEC 62016).
