Abstract
Service modes specify how digital content is formatted in sidebands of an FM radio channel. In an improved service mode, encoded bits can be distributed between an in-band encoded component and a cross-band encoded component, where the encoded bits in the in-band encoded component are desynchronized by a specified duration with respect to the encoded bits in the cross-band encoded component. The encoded bits in the in-band encoded component can be allocated into frequency partitions that are used by a legacy service mode, such as MPor MP, which can provide backward compatibility with the legacy service mode. The encoded bits in the cross-band encoded component can be allocated into frequency partitions that are not used by the legacy service mode, and are found in the opposite sideband, compared with the legacy service mode, which can provide time diversity within a single sideband.
