Foreword
This draft Harmonized European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Mobile Standards
Group (MSG), and is now submitted for the combined Public Enquiry and Vote phase of the ETSI standards EN
Approval Procedure.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to mandate M/284 issued from the European
Commission under Directive 98/34/EC [i.1] as amended by Directive 98/48/EC [i.6].
The title and reference to the present document are intended to be included in the publication in the Official Journal of
the European Union of titles and references of Harmonized Standard under the Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2].
See article 5.1 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] for information on presumption of conformity and Harmonised Standards or
parts thereof the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union.
The requirements relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] are summarized in annex A.
The present document is part 18 of a multi-part deliverable. Full details of the entire series can be found in part 1 [i.7].

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): 18 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.2]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3].
