A DAB receiver consists of three units such as analog front, DAB baseband decoder and microprocessor. The primary role of the microprocessor is to control the DAB baseband decoder and to process the DAB protocol and a user interface to select a service. This paper describes the PC controlled DAB receiver simulator for substituting a PC for the function of a microprocessor. The simulator consists of display part and user interface part. Display part is modeled as 16 characters by 2 rows LCD to display user friendly character information. As a user interface we define the various kinds of function key inputs received from the keyboard and mouse. Performance tests have been carried out by the experimental system in order to certify the operation of our simulator. Test results show that the PC controlled DAB receiver simulator performs the perfect processing as expected.
