Foreword
This final draft Harmonized European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Broadband
Radio Access Networks (BRAN).
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to mandates M/284 and M/512 issued from the European
Commission under Directive 98/34/EC [i.1] as amended by Directive 98/48/EC [i.2].
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.3].
See article 5.1 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] for information on presumption of conformity and Harmonized 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.3] are summarized in annex A.

Proposed national transposition dates

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.3]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.4].
The methods and principles used in the present document for the operation of TV White Space devices in the band
470 MHz to 790 MHz are taken from the ECC Report 186 [i.5], which explains the regulatory principles under which it
is envisaged such devices will be permitted to operate in Europe. This approach is also explained in further detail in
Chapter 9 of "Dynamic White Space Spectrum Access" [i.11].
A requirement to facilitate coexistence between TVWSDs is not considered essential with respect to compliance with
Article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] and therefore is not included in the current version of the present document.
This may change in the future, resulting in the inclusion of mitigation techniques in a revision of the present document,
to improve the coexistence among TVWSDs, if considered essential in order to comply with Article 3.2 of Directive
1999/5/EC [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document applies to TV white space devices (TVWSDs) controlled by a TV white space database
(TVWSDB) and which operate in the TV broadcast band 470 MHz to 790 MHz.
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
1) Master TV white space device (TVWSD)
2) Slave TV white space device (TVWSD)
The present document applies to TVWSDs with integral, dedicated or external antennas, where TVWSDs using external
antennas are intended only for fixed use. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive
1999/5/EC [i.3] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2, which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it
effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid
harmful interference".
In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements
under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

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.3]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.4].
The methods and principles used in the present document for the operation of TV White Space devices in the band
470 MHz to 790 MHz are taken from the ECC Report 186 [i.5], which explains the regulatory principles under which it
is envisaged such devices will be permitted to operate in Europe. This approach is also explained in further detail in
Chapter 9 of "Dynamic White Space Spectrum Access" [i.11].
A requirement to facilitate coexistence between TVWSDs is not considered essential with respect to compliance with
Article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] and therefore is not included in the current version of the present document.
This may change in the future, resulting in the inclusion of mitigation techniques in a revision of the present document,
to improve the coexistence among TVWSDs, if considered essential in order to comply with Article 3.2 of Directive
1999/5/EC [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document applies to TV white space devices (TVWSDs) controlled by a TV white space database
(TVWSDB) and which operate in the TV broadcast band 470 MHz to 790 MHz.
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
1) Master TV white space device (TVWSD)
2) Slave TV white space device (TVWSD)
The present document applies to TVWSDs with integral, dedicated or external antennas, where TVWSDs using external
antennas are intended only for fixed use. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive
1999/5/EC [i.3] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2, which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it
effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid
harmful interference".
In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements
under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

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.3]. The modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.4]. The methods and principles used in the present document for the operation of TV White Space devices in the band 470 MHz to 790 MHz are taken from the ECC Report 186 [i.5], which explains the regulatory principles under which it is envisaged such devices will be permitted to operate in Europe. This approach is also explained in further detail in Chapter 9 of "Dynamic White Space Spectrum Access" [i.11]. A requirement to facilitate coexistence between TVWSDs is not considered essential with respect to compliance with Article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] and therefore is not included in the current version of the present document. This may change in the future, resulting in the inclusion of mitigation techniques in a revision of the present document, to improve the coexistence among TVWSDs, if considered essential in order to comply with Article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3].

ETSI ETSI EN 301 598 V1.1.1 (2014-04) 8 1 Scope The present document applies to TV white space devices (TVWSDs) controlled by a TV white space database (TVWSDB) and which operate in the TV broadcast band 470 MHz to 790 MHz. The present document applies to the following radio equipment types: 1) Master TV white space device (TVWSD) 2) Slave TV white space device (TVWSD) The present document applies to TVWSDs with integral, dedicated or external antennas, where TVWSDs using external antennas are intended only for fixed use. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2, which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org. 2 References References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.
