How do radio stations know how many listeners they have?

Isn’t picking up a radio signal a passive thing without any feedback? Or do they just assume the number by some metric unknown to me

They usually have this thing called a Portable People Meter, which picks up on hidden audio tones channeling the station, and logs each individual new signal. each signal is a new person listening.
