What is Impulse Radio?

Who We Are

Impulse Radio is the leading provider of broadcaster and receiver side technology designed to capitalize on IBOC digital radio and other related technologies. We were founded in 1999 and are headquartered in New York City.

What We Do
In order for broadcasters, receiver manufacturers, and consumers to benefit from the advent of terrestrial digital radio, the industry requires not only IBOC transmission and reception technology, but also a software-operating platform from which to launch and manage new data services.

Impulse Radio provides that software-operating platform for both broadcasters and electronics manufacturers.

Broadcasters
The Impulse Radio Datacast Server is a product licensed to broadcasters, allowing them to improve listenership and listener retention, generate incremental revenue through the sale of new digital advertising, and license portions of their spectrum for new subsidiary data services.

Electronics Manufacturers
The Impulse Radio Device Platform is a product licensed to electronics manufacturers, which interfaces with and enables the data services associated with IBOC digital radio. In order to realize the benefits of digital radio, consumers must purchase new IBOC-enabled receivers. Technology such as Impulse Radio’s Device Platform will be required in order for these new receivers to render content and other data.

Driving Standardization
Impulse Radio and iBiquity Digital are working together to standardize interface protocols for digital radio data broadcasts and to create an environment in which broadcasters, receiver manufacturers, and applications developers can work together to maximize the effectiveness of the IBOC data pipe.

Throughout the development process, Impulse Radio will enlist the feedback of electronics manufacturers, radio broadcasters, and application providers, helping to create a more encompassing and flexible data standard.
