This paper proposes the architecture Of multiple ensemble service in DAB network, in which they can transmit and receive more than one ensemble through multiple transmitters, which covers the same service area. Using this architecture, ensemble providers and transmission network providers can have more flexible management environment of DAB networks as well as they can accommodate more than 1.5 Mbps data capacity limit of one ensemble(1).
