3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1] and the following
apply:
carrier-on state: transmit ES is in this state when it is authorized to transmit, and when it transmits a signal, either
authorized by a Centralized Control and Monitoring Function (CCMF) or a Network Control Facility (NCF) when
designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for attended operation
carrier-off state: transmit ES is in this state when it is authorized to transmit, and when it does not transmit any signal,
either authorized by a CCMF or a NCF when designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for
attended operation
NOTE: The existence of a carrier-off state depends on the system of transmission used. For ES designed for
continuous transmission mode there may be no carrier-off state.
transmission disabled state: transmit ES is in this state when it is not authorized to transmit either by a CCMF or a
NCF respectively when designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for attended operation

5 Performance assessment
5.1 General
The provision of ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1], clause 5.1 shall apply.
In addition the manufacturer shall provide the following information to be recorded in the test report:
• the dedicated grade (A or B) for the ES in accordance with the information contained in the instructions
accompanying the ES (see clause 5.3);

• the minimum quality of transmission, and the method to be used to assess it.
This information shall be in accordance with the documentation accompanying the equipment.
5.2 Equipment configuration(s)
For radiation measurements in carrier-on state, the ES shall be put in a continuous transmit mode or to the maximum
burst rate where applicable. The ES shall be operated at the highest normal operating Equivalent Isotropically Radiated
Power (EIRP) or, if that is the maximum attainable, then 3 dB below such maximum.

For the tests, the ES antenna reflector and the test antenna may be removed at their flanges and be replaced by one
direct wave guide connection.
The following test equipment shall be the means whereby the correct operation of the EUT is verified:
a) the power meter measures the output power and is used to confirm the transmission disabled, carrier-on and
carrier-off states and output level consistency;
b) the frequency counter measures the centre frequency of the radiated carrier in the absence of modulation;
c) the spectrum analyser measures the bandwidth of the transmission;
d) the test receiver is used to demodulate the transmitted signal;
e) the two QTMA are used in conjunction with each other to assess the quality of transmission;

Satellite Service (FSS) covered by the present document are given in annex B.
In case of differences (for instance concerning special conditions, definitions, abbreviations) between the present
document and ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1], the provisions of the present document take precedence.
The environmental classification and the emission and immunity requirements used in the present document are as
stated in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1], except for any special conditions included in the present document. The applicable
environments referred to in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1] where equipment covered by the scope of the present document

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1] and the following
apply:
carrier-on state: transmit ES is in this state when it is authorized to transmit, and when it transmits a signal, either
authorized by a Centralized Control and Monitoring Function (CCMF) or a Network Control Facility (NCF) when
designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for attended operation
carrier-off state: transmit ES is in this state when it is authorized to transmit, and when it does not transmit any signal,
either authorized by a CCMF or a NCF when designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for
attended operation
NOTE: The existence of a carrier-off state depends on the system of transmission used. For ES designed for
continuous transmission mode there may be no carrier-off state.
transmission disabled state: transmit ES is in this state when it is not authorized to transmit either by a CCMF or a
NCF respectively when designed for unattended operation or by local control when designed for attended operation

This information shall be in accordance with the documentation accompanying the equipment.
5.2 Equipment configuration(s)
For radiation measurements in carrier-on state, the ES shall be put in a continuous transmit mode or to the maximum
burst rate where applicable. The ES shall be operated at the highest normal operating Equivalent Isotropically Radiated

10 Draft ETSI EN 301 489-12 V3.1.0 (2017-10)
For the tests, the ES antenna reflector and the test antenna may be removed at their flanges and be replaced by one
direct wave guide connection.
The following test equipment shall be the means whereby the correct operation of the EUT is verified:
a) the power meter measures the output power and is used to confirm the transmission disabled, carrier-on and
carrier-off states and output level consistency;
b) the frequency counter measures the centre frequency of the radiated carrier in the absence of modulation;
c) the spectrum analyser measures the bandwidth of the transmission;
d) the test receiver is used to demodulate the transmitted signal;
e) the two QTMA are used in conjunction with each other to assess the quality of transmission;
f) the test transmitter is used to control the switching between transmission disabled, carrier-on and carrier-off
states by transmitting the control and monitoring signals.
5.3 Equipment classification
The provisions of ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1], clause 5.5 set out for base stations shall apply with the following addition.
