1 Scope
It is expected that the present document can be used as a Test Report Template that would be useful for national
conformity assessment bodies and market surveillance authorities in countries where the R&TTE is in force, as well as
for the assistance of manufacturers and test houses, although such a Report Template would remain voluntary.
As such, test Report Templates for testing against Harmonized Standards may be used:
- in countries where the R&TTE Directive [i.1] is in force, for manufacturers' self testing;
- in countries where the R&TTE Directive [i.1] is in force, for the purpose of third-party testing;
- in countries where the R&TTE Directive [i.1] is in force, for parameters that Administrations may wish to
have tested by a third-party (e.g. in the case of market surveillance/enforcement);
- in countries where the R&TTE Directive [i.1] is not in force, for the purpose of third-party testing and Type
Approval.
The present document recommends text and formatting to be used in Test Reports for equipment being assessed to
version 1.5.1 of EN 301 893 [i.4].
Other editions of EN 301 893 [i.4] may require a different format to cover additional or different test requirements than
those contained in the present document. This will be the subject of further work.
NOTE: TR 102 439 [i.5] contains text and formatting to be used in Test Reports for equipment being assessed to
version 1.3.1 of EN 301 893 [i.2].

DFS Threshold level: ……… dBm at the antenna connector
       in front of the antenna
NOTE 8: According to EN 301 893 [i.4], for equipment with a maximum EIRP Spectral Density of 10 dBm/MHz,
the DFS threshold level shall be -62 dBm or less. This level assumes a 0 dBi antenna gain. For devices
employing different EIRP spectral density and/or a different receive antenna gain G (dBi), the DFS
threshold level at the receiver input follows the following relationship:
DFS Detection Threshold (dBm) = -62 + 10 - EIRP Spectral Density (dBm/MHz) + G (dBi)
However, the DFS threshold level shall not be lower than -64 dBm assuming a 0 dBi receive antenna
gain. To define the applicable threshold level at the (temporary) antenna connector, the gain of the
antenna (in dBi) shall be added to the threshold level. If more than one antenna is intended for this TPC
range or power setting, the antenna gain of the antenna with the lowest gain shall be used.
