Foreword This European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Transmission and Multiplexing (TM). Antennas as components for radio relay systems may need to meet environmental, mechanical and electrical characteristics not covered by the present document, in order that the systems will operate as intended. Additional parameters and characteristics may be subject to agreement between the equipment purchaser and the supplier; these are considered and guidance is provided in annex A.

Introduction The purpose of the present document is to define the requirements for circularly polarized antennas used in conjunction with multipoint systems necessary to facilitate frequency co-ordination between services in the frequency band 1 GHz to 11 GHz. SIST EN 302 078 V1.1.1:2003

1 Scope The present document specifies the essential electrical requirements for circular polarization fixed beam antennas to be utilized with Multipoint (MP) systems, including central station, repeater stations, and terminal station applications, operating in frequency bands from 1 GHz to 11 GHz. These systems use various multiple access schemes. Electronically steerable antennas, and linearly polarized antennas are not considered under the present document. Where circumstances merit, and after a consultation period with operators and manufacturers, the Regulatory Authority may impose the use of tighter requirements than the minimum values given in the present document, in order to maximize the use of scarce spectrum resources. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. • References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific. • For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. • For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.
