The purpose of this study is to see how five different local radio stations, P4, within the public service organization Sveriges Radio communicate with their listeners through Facebook and how they differ from each other.We have also studied how the radio stations follow Sveriges Radios? policies for socialmedia usage and how the communication through Facebook can benefit thetraditional radio. Our study contains a combination of quantitative content analysis with qualitative interviews. We studied the five stations? Facebook pages from for the quantitative content analysis and interviewed those who were responsible for the social media pages, such as web editors and channel managers.Our conclusions are that the P4-stations communicate through Facebook to create a dialogue with the listeners and to reach two-way communication; the stations published mostly written updates that encouraged interactivity.

Many media buyers annually spend money on advertising which will not be of benefit to their own brand; the fact that consumers confuse from which brand they have heard or seen commercials, comes as news to nobody. The phenomenon of media confusion has however earned much less attention. As a greater part of the total marketing budget is being spent on the media investments, on behalf of the actual advertising production, the more interesting it turns out to maximize the effects of the media expenses. The search for optimization is somewhat practised today by brand managers who are daringly adding a few more media channels to support their TV-campaigns. Buying ad space in TV is nevertheless much more expensive than the radio equivalent.

Den här uppsatsen är en jämförande undersökning av hur kommentatorer för fotboll jobbar i radio respektive television (TV). Kommentator som arbetar med expertkommentator är fokuseringen i detta arbete. Metoden jag använde för att komma fram till ett svar var att jag analyserade landskampen mellan Wales och Sverige för att se skillnader och likheter hur kommentatorerna jobbar i de olika medierna. Från matchen har jag sen valt ut viktiga och intressanta situationer som jag studerat närmare. Jag har även gjort kvalitativa intervjuer med kommentatorerna Paul Zyra (Radiosporten) och Jesper Hussfelt (TV4) som arbetade med den ovannämnda matchen.

At the Department of Technology and Built environment at the University of Gävle there was an interest to study GNU Radio, which is an "open source radio project. The project is based on that most of the radio signal processing is made in an ordinary PC. The idea behind this degree project was that in a laptop there are several radio transmitters/receivers that takes space, generates heat and transmit in varied frequency band etcetera. All these radio transmitters/receivers could be replaced with a Software Defined Radio system. It means that one common, general radio hardware is used to different communications such as: WLAN, Bluetooth, GPRS, 3G etcetera. The waveform is generated in the software, which makes the system very flexible.

The purpose of this report was to study how the Swedish radio channel Sveriges Radio (SR) website changed over time. What are the differences between various media websites?

The Bachelor thesis ?Oh, it?s only student radio? is a qualitative study of the Swedish student radio and its members. The study aims to investigate the professionalisation of the radio hosts through Pierre Bourdieu?s theories of field and habitus as well as theories of profession. In order to do so, it?s also necessary to establish the radiostations? perceived role in today?s media landscape by analysing their ambition in relation to other media organisations.

AbstractPurpose/Aim: The aim of this essay is to paint a picture of science news reporting in the Swedish Public Service science programme, vetenskaps-radion. Key issues to be adressed are: What areas in science are prioritised? How much of the total broadcast time are devoted to each area? Are there any differences in reporting between weeks? How well does the swedish science radio match common interets? Are the news in the form of short ?soundbites? or are they more lengthy in-depth?Material/Method: Quantitative analysis of radio programmes. The variables used are based on the different major areas in natural sciences.Main results: This study shows that most broadcast time is devoted to news regarding biology and medicine and that the news rather are in the form of short snippets of news than more lengty in-depth stories.

Pålagt skratt är något som har använts i hela tevens historia och används än idag. Från början fick man inspirationen från radions tidiga dagar då man ofta spelade in sina program eller shower framför en publik. Det pålagda skrattet har funnits i din teveapparat i nästan 70 år, men i din radio hör du det aldrig. Varför inte det? Mitt examensarbete syftar till att göra ett humorprogram i radio med pålagt skratt och undersöka vad folk tycker om detta grepp i radio.

The aim of the thesis was to investigate energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions from an advertisement broadcasted on the radio or the television or distributed through press. The object was to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide emissions per individual receiver of an advertisement in Sweden. There was no room for a deeper investigation into editorial work within the framework of the thesis. Consequently, main focus of the radio and television study was on broadcasting itself and the components involved. Focus for the press study was on paper production, printing and distribution. Production and discarding of media equipment was not taken into account.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a versatile wireless technology usedworldwide. The fields of applications are many and its popularity constantlygrows due to smaller in size, better and less expensive components. RFID isused to identify, track or share information about an object using radio waves.This master thesis describes the process of designing and implementing ahandheld UHF RFID reader. The goal was to, based on a UHF RFID-chipdesign a fully functional, small in size and power efficient device. Amicrocontroller provides the user interface and is also used to control theRFID-chip and a Bluetooth device.

The purpose with this study is to examine how the media coverage of the train accidentoutside Kimstad, on the night of September 12th 2010, was framed in one local (Norrköpingsnyheter) and one national newspaper (Expressen) and how the coverage of the accident wasdifferent in the local newspaper compared to the national newspaper.The material is 12 articles within a fixed time limit which is from September 13th toSeptember 15th. The material consists of six articles from each newspaper.The method we use a qualitative text analysis with its basis in medialogic, news value andframing theory.In the essay?s analysis we show a synthesis of both newspapers coverage of the train accidentoutside Kimstad and how they stand in relation to the theory of news value and we end with aterminative comment about the results.The conclusion shows that the coverage of the event was different in many ways. Expressenuses a more dramatic framing and a more sensational language which describes the eventmore badly than it was. NT uses a more informative and objective information which almosttrifles the event but which informs about relevant information for the locals.

Denna uppsats behandlar lyssnartrötthet vid telefonintervjuer i radio. Användningen av telefonhybrider för intervjuer i radio är vanligt förekommande och det används dagligen inom till exempel Sveriges Radio. I jämförelse med en studiointervju finns det stora ljudkvalitativa nackdelar vid användningen av telefonhybrider i form av en kraftigt förminskad bandbredd, ledningsbrus, bakgrundsbrus och i viss mån också distorsion. Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka om den bristande ljudkvalitén, vid användning av telefonintervjuer i radio, skapar lyssnartrötthet och därmed påverkar lyssnarens förmåga att tillgodogöra sig innehållet. Då inga tester på lyssnartrötthet vid uppläsning av längre texter med telefonkaraktär har utförts, varken inom Sveriges Radio eller hos telecom-tillverkaren Ericsson, blir detta arbete också en ansats till att utveckla en metod för denna typ av test.

Podcast är ett nytt medieformat som har vuxit snabbt det senaste decenniet, i toppen bland de svenska podcasterna ligger ?Filip och Fredriks podcast? med Filip Hammar och Fredrik Wikingsson. Podcast är ett relativt billigt och enkelt medium som gör det möjligt att nå ut till en potentiellt global publik. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att med hjälp av samtalsanalys belysa specifika egenskaper hos podcasten jämfört med traditionell radio som här representeras av pratprogrammet ?Gerts värld? med Gert Fylking och Kim Kärnfalk.Jag kommer även använda mig av David Hendys teorier för hur radio program är strukturellt uppbyggda och applicera dem på mitt material för att se på likheter och skillnader mellan radio och podcast.
