Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9010981A1] The method is for transmitting radio data system signals accompanying a programme in groups of an extended other network type. The RDS data comprises first to fourth blocks, the first block carrying the programme identification code (PI(TN)) of the programme. The second block carries a group type code (GT) identifying the extended other network type as well as a multiple variant usage code (UC) identifying which of a selection of items of information is carried in the third block. These items of information pertain to the other networks programme identified in the fourth block by its programme identification code (PI(ON)). The programme identification codes comprise a country code, an area coverage code and a programme reference code. One usage code (UC) in the second block identifies a transmission of a linkage word (12) in the third block carrying information related to the programme identification code of the programme or programmes to be linked to the programme identified in the fourth block.
