'''Project Description'''
----
'''[http://up-fm.org UP-FM]''' is conceived to be a network of strategically placed low-power (max 10W) FM transmitters on the UP Diliman campus and in other places. (See [[UP-FM Transmitter]].) Its source content is streamed from a DILC server. The fully automated audio stream is also available online at [http://up-fm.org up-fm.org]. 
<br /><br />
[http://up-fm.org UP-FM's] potential audience on campus include people with FM-ready mobile phones and those in offices with radios. The station can also be "installed" outside the UP Campus where there is Internet connection and low-power transmitters can be established. 
<br /><br />

==Vision and Mission==
'''Vision'''<br />
UP-FM aims to be the music hub reflective of the youthful, vibrant university culture.
<br /><br />

'''Mission'''<br />
UP-FM adopts a three-pronged approach to achieving its vision:
# As a venue to engage artists, musicians, volunteers and other stakeholders to contribute to the development of a dynamic, responsive music radio station.<br />
# As a champion for the arts, it conducts programs and activities that will promote artistic development mainly in the UP community.<br />
#As a cultural hub, it seeks to contribute to the development and preservation of Filipino’s artistic, musical, and cultural heritage.

==Research==
----
UP-FM has a research component. Potentially this cost-effective community-based FM "station" can complement DZUP, the official AM station of the University, and commercial radio stations. 
<br /><br />
The system will also be used to prototype a network that can be used during disaster or crisis situations.
