About RDS broadcasting

signal properly or if the signal strength is weak.

RDS allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their regular program signals. 
For example, the stations send their station names, as well as information about what  type of program
they broadcast, such as sports or music,etc.
When tuned to an FM station which provides the RDS service, the RDS indicator lights up on the display.
