Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document includes improvements to the previous version of the standard that take advantage of technical
developments within the SRD industry. It also serves the purpose of providing the requirements and associated
measurement methods to improve the intra- SRD co-existence and promote efficient spectrum use.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [i.2] (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the
field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive") [i.1].
Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] are given in annex A.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering the Short Range Devices (SRD); Radio equipment
to be used in the 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz frequency range with power levels ranging up to 500 mW, as identified below:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics and test methods";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".

Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM), and is now submitted for the Vote phase of the
ETSI standards Two-step Approval Procedure.
The present document includes improvements to the previous version of the standard that take advantage of technical
developments within the SRD industry. It also serves the purpose of providing the requirements and associated
measurement methods to improve the intra- SRD co-existence and promote efficient spectrum use.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [i.2] (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the
field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive") [i.1].
Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] are given in annex A.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering the Short Range Devices (SRD); Radio equipment
to be used in the 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz frequency range with power levels ranging up to 500 mW, as identified below:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics and test methods";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".

Proposed national transposition dates
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 3 months after ETSI publication
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e): 6 months after doa
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 36 months after doa

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.1]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.5].

NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type
of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty
cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of
Individual Rights for use of spectrum or General Authorization, or as a condition for use under "licence
exemption" as it is in most cases for Short Range Devices.
The present document covers fixed stations, mobile stations and portable stations.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE
Directive). The present document does not apply to radio equipment for which a specific Harmonized EN applies as
such Harmonized EN may specify additional EN requirements relevant to the presumption of conformity under
article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [i.1].

NOTE 1: It should be noted that table 1 represents the most widely implemented position within the European
Union and the CEPT countries, but it should not be assumed that all designated bands are available in all
countries.
NOTE 2: In addition, it should be noted that other frequency bands may be available in a country within the
frequency range 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz covered by the present document.
NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type
of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty
cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of an
Individual Rights for use of spectrum or General Authorization, or as a condition for use under "licence
exemption" as it is in most cases for Short Range Devices.
