RDS (Radio Data System)

Radio Data System (RDS) is a technology embedded in FM radio broadcasts that transmits additional information alongside audio signals. This data can include the station’s name, program details, traffic updates, or song titles. RDS allows radios equipped with RDS technology to display this information on your screen, making listening more informative and convenient. It also enables features like automatic station tuning and traffic alert reception. Overall, RDS enhances the radio listening experience by providing useful, real-time data efficiently within the existing broadcast signal.
