- Abstract
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) specifies the technical requ irements to be met by terminal equipment capable of connecting to a pu blic telecommunications network. These requirements apply to terminals for Phase 2 of the public land mobile radio service, operating in: - the DCS 1 800 band; or - both in the DCS 1 800 band and the GSM 900 MHz band. with a channel separation of 200 kHz, utilizing constant envelope modu lation and carrying traffic channels according to the Time Division Mu ltiple Access (TDMA) principle. This TBR specifies the access requirements for terminals as stated abo ve implementing the GSM standard. For each test purpose and its corresponding conformance requirement, a reference is given to ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2]. The requiremen ts apply to speech transmission. The measurement uncertainty is handled, as described in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2]. This TBR covers the essential requirements of the Terminal Directive 9 1/263/EEC [1] Article 4g. Articles 4d, 4e, and 4f are covered by TBR 3 1. The Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC Articles 4a and 4b are covered by ot her directives, and, therefore, not by this TBR. In this TBR, there are no Electromagnetic Compatibility technical requ irements in terms of the Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC, Article 4c. NOTE: Technical Requirements for EMC performance and testing of the eq uipment are covered by the relevant standards applicable to the EMC Di rective 89/336/EEC, annex A. Terminal equipment may be subject to additional requirements in other Common Technical Regulations (CTR) depending on the equipments functio nality. ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] constitutes the conformance test suite r eferenced by this TBR. The verification of the conformance requirement s mn this TBR is based on the tests described in this reference. The s et of requirements in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] and the set of req uirements in this TBR need not be identical. Some requirements only apply to specific types

SIST TBR 032:2000 is the Slovene adoption of ETSI TBR 32 Edition 2, published by SIST. It specifies the technical and conformance requirements for speech-capable mobile stations that connect to a public telecommunications network in the DCS 1800 band, or in both the DCS 1800 band and the GSM 900 band. Manufacturers, test laboratories, and approval bodies use it to check whether GSM Phase 2 terminal equipment meets the regulatory attachment requirements.
What does SIST TBR 032:2000 specify?
SIST TBR 032:2000 specifies attachment requirements for mobile stations in the DCS 1800 band and, where applicable, the additional GSM 900 band. The document is focused on speech transmission and on the access requirements needed to implement the GSM standard.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A, normative | The TBR Requirement Table (TBR-RT), including static requirements, dynamic requirements, status notations, support answers, and the links to the test items in ETS 300 607-1 |
The scope says the terminals use 200 kHz channel separation, constant envelope modulation, and traffic channels based on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA). It also states that measurement uncertainty is handled as described in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10).
The standard covers the essential requirements of Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC Article 4g. It also notes that Articles 4d, 4e, and 4f are covered by TBR 31, while Articles 4a and 4b are covered by other directives. No Electromagnetic Compatibility technical requirements are included under Article 4c in this TBR.
What are the key requirements of SIST TBR 032:2000?
SIST TBR 032:2000 ties conformance to a set of speech tests and to the way the manufacturer declares support for optional functions. Clause 4 separates single-band DCS 1800 terminals from dual-band DCS 1800/GSM 900 terminals, and Annex A turns those choices into test selection.
Clause 4 sets the product classes. DCS 1800-only terminals follow clause 5, while terminals that also operate in GSM 900, including Extended GSM 900, must meet TBR 20 plus clause 5. In practice, a dual-band product has to satisfy both the GSM 900 attachment rules and the speech-related rules in this document.
Clause 5 maps each regulatory requirement to a test item from ETS 300 607-1. Table 1 pairs the ETS item number, a short description, and a justification linked to the terminal directive. This lets a tester trace each requirement back to a named conformance test.
Speech performance is checked through acoustic and transmission measures. The table includes sending and receiving sensitivity and frequency response, loudness ratings, side tone measures, telephone acoustic coupling loss, stability margin, and sending distortion. In practice, these are the checks that show whether a handset can carry intelligible speech without unacceptable echo, loss, or distortion.
Transcoding and DTX are tested for full rate and half rate speech. The table covers speech transcoding, receiver DTX, transmitter DTX, and delay items for both full rate and half rate paths. This matters because a terminal can only interwork reliably with the public network if speech coding, silence handling, and delay stay within the required behavior.
Some tests apply only when the terminal supports the related function. Annex A uses status notations and conditional rules so that optional speech features, half rate speech, or speech handset functions are tested only when the manufacturer claims them. That keeps conformance testing aligned with the actual product configuration.
Dual-band terminals may use equivalent GSM 900 or DCS 1800 tests for some items. In Table 1, items marked with an asterisk allow the test to be performed in either band when the terminal supports both. This helps testers avoid duplicate testing when the two bands cover the same functional point.
What terms does SIST TBR 032:2000 define?
- Common Technical Regulations (CTR) - Common technical regulations are the regulatory framework mentioned in the document for additional terminal requirements.
- Discontinuous Transmission (DTX) - DTX is the mechanism that stops transmission during silence periods and is tested for both full rate and half rate speech.
- Echo Loss (EL) - EL is part of the telephone acoustic coupling loss check and relates to how much echo is reduced.
- Man Machine Interface (MMI) - MMI means the user-facing interface, and the document uses it in delay tests for transparency of inputs.
- GSM Mobile Station (MS) - MS is the mobile station that the standard evaluates for speech attachment and conformance.
- Full rate Traffic CHannel for Speech (TCH/FS) - TCH/FS is the full rate speech traffic channel used in the speech-related tests.
- Half rate Traffic CHannel for Speech (TCH/HS) - TCH/HS is the half rate speech traffic channel used where half rate support is claimed.
Who uses SIST TBR 032:2000?
Manufacturers of GSM mobile stations use SIST TBR 032:2000 to decide which speech functions to implement and which conformance tests to claim. Test laboratories use it with ETS 300 607-1 to run the regulatory speech test suite.
Approval bodies and compliance teams use it to check whether a terminal meets the essential requirements linked to public network attachment. It is also relevant to teams handling active accessories, because the scope says an accessory is covered when it changes terminal performance in a way that affects conformance.
Which standards are used with SIST TBR 032:2000?
- Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC [1] - The directive provides the essential requirements that this TBR maps to, especially Article 4g.
- ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2] - This is the conformance test suite and the main technical reference for the item-by-item tests.
- TBR 20 [3] - This applies to terminals that also operate in GSM 900, alongside clause 5 of this TBR.
- ETS 300 540 [4] - This reference supports speech service transmission planning aspects.
- ETS 300 504 [5] - This gives the types of mobile stations used by the annex tables.
- TBR 31 [6] - This covers the access requirements for Articles 4d, 4e, and 4f.
What does the SIST TBR 032:2000 document contain?
The document contains a foreword, a scope, normative references, abbreviations, general requirements, and a requirements clause, followed by Annex A. Clause 5 gives the requirement list with justifications and links to ETS 300 607-1 item numbers. Annex A then turns those requirements into a completion table for manufacturers, with static and dynamic proformas, status codes, support answers, and conditional selection rules.
It also includes the explanatory notations needed to use the TBR-RT correctly, so a user can tell what is mandatory, optional, conditional, not applicable, or excluded. The practical result is a document used for design decisions, conformity assessment, and approval testing of GSM speech terminals.

Foreword
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Special Mobile Group (SMG) of the
European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
The present TBR has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission
issued under Council Directive 83/189/EEC (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of
information in the field of technical standards and regulations.
The present TBR is intended to become a Harmonized Standard as requested by the above mentioned
mandate, the reference of which will be published in the Official Journal of the European Communities
referencing the Council Directive on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning
telecommunications terminal equipment, including the mutual recognition of their conformity (Directive
91/263/EEC, known as "the TTE Directive").
A common technical regulation may be established by the European Commission in accordance with the
Directive.
Technical specifications relevant to the 91/263/EEC Directive are given in the TBR-Requirements Table
(TBR-RT) in annex A.
This TBR covers the requirements for GSM Telephony (speech).
This TBR contains the procedures and requirements for the approval testing of GSM terminal equipment
for speech. These requirements apply to terminals for Phase 2 of the public land mobile radio service,
operating in:
- the DCS 1 800 band; or
- both in the DCS 1 800 band and the GSM 900 MHz band.
The requirements of other TBRs apply in addition to this TBR.
For each test, supplementary information is provided, giving a justification why this item has been selected
for regulatory testing, and a reference to the relevant article of the Terminal Directive [1].
This TBR is based on the ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2].
NOTE: This TBR for Phase 2 may be developed in stages. The first release will include, as a
minimum, all of the basic Phase 2. Subsequent releases will include additional
requirements.

1 Scope
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) specifies the technical requirements to be met by terminal
equipment capable of connecting to a public telecommunications network. These requirements apply to
terminals for Phase 2 of the public land mobile radio service, operating in:
- the DCS 1 800 band; or
- both in the DCS 1 800 band and the GSM 900 MHz band.
with a channel separation of 200 kHz, utilizing constant envelope modulation and carrying traffic channels
according to the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) principle.
This TBR specifies the access requirements for terminals as stated above implementing the GSM
standard.
For each test purpose and its corresponding conformance requirement, a reference is given to
ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2]. The requirements apply to speech transmission.
The measurement uncertainty is handled, as described in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2].
This TBR covers the essential requirements of the Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC [1] Article 4g.
Articles 4d, 4e, and 4f are covered by TBR 31 [6].
The Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC Articles 4a and 4b are covered by other directives, and, therefore, not
by this TBR.
In this TBR, there are no Electromagnetic Compatibility technical requirements in terms of the Terminal
Directive 91/263/EEC, Article 4c.
NOTE 1: Technical Requirements for EMC performance and testing of the equipment are
covered by the relevant standards applicable to the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC,
annex A.
Terminal equipment may be subject to additional requirements in other Common Technical Regulations
(CTR) depending on the equipments functionality.
ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] constitutes the conformance test suite referenced by this TBR. The
verification of the conformance requirements in this TBR is based on the tests described in this reference.
The set of requirements in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] and the set of requirements in this TBR need
not be identical.
Some requirements only apply to specific types of mobile station (e.g. data tests only apply to mobile
stations with a data facility). The TBR also indicates the specific test which shall be carried out for each
mobile station type.
An active accessory is covered by this TBR if it modifies the terminal performance in an aspect which
affects conformance to essential requirements.
NOTE 2: Only active devices are subject to this TBR. Accessories may be tested with specific
terminals, and either approved for use with those terminals only, or may possibly be
approved for use with a wider range of terminals, depending on the nature and effect
of the accessory.

Foreword
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Special Mobile Group (SMG) of the
European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
The present TBR has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission
issued under Council Directive 83/189/EEC (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of
information in the field of technical standards and regulations.
The present TBR is intended to become a Harmonized Standard as requested by the above mentioned
mandate, the reference of which will be published in the Official Journal of the European Communities
referencing the Council Directive on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning
telecommunications terminal equipment, including the mutual recognition of their conformity (Directive
91/263/EEC, known as "the TTE Directive").
A common technical regulation may be established by the European Commission in accordance with the
Directive.
Technical specifications relevant to the 91/263/EEC Directive are given in the TBR-Requirements Table
(TBR-RT) in annex A.
This TBR covers the requirements for GSM Telephony (speech).
This TBR contains the procedures and requirements for the approval testing of GSM terminal equipment
for speech. These requirements apply to terminals for Phase 2 of the public land mobile radio service,
operating in:
- the DCS 1 800 band; or
- both in the DCS 1 800 band and the GSM 900 MHz band.
The requirements of other TBRs apply in addition to this TBR.
For each test, supplementary information is provided, giving a justification why this item has been selected
for regulatory testing, and a reference to the relevant article of the Terminal Directive [1].
This TBR is based on the ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2].
NOTE: This TBR for Phase 2 may be developed in stages. The first release will include, as a
minimum, all of the basic Phase 2. Subsequent releases will include additional
requirements.

1 Scope
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) specifies the technical requirements to be met by terminal
equipment capable of connecting to a public telecommunications network. These requirements apply to
terminals for Phase 2 of the public land mobile radio service, operating in:
- the DCS 1 800 band; or
- both in the DCS 1 800 band and the GSM 900 MHz band.
with a channel separation of 200 kHz, utilizing constant envelope modulation and carrying traffic channels
according to the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) principle.
This TBR specifies the access requirements for terminals as stated above implementing the GSM
standard.
For each test purpose and its corresponding conformance requirement, a reference is given to
ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2]. The requirements apply to speech transmission.
The measurement uncertainty is handled, as described in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2].
This TBR covers the essential requirements of the Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC [1] Article 4g.
Articles 4d, 4e, and 4f are covered by TBR 31 [6].
The Terminal Directive 91/263/EEC Articles 4a and 4b are covered by other directives, and, therefore, not
by this TBR.
In this TBR, there are no Electromagnetic Compatibility technical requirements in terms of the Terminal
Directive 91/263/EEC, Article 4c.
NOTE 1: Technical Requirements for EMC performance and testing of the equipment are
covered by the relevant standards applicable to the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC,
annex A.
Terminal equipment may be subject to additional requirements in other Common Technical Regulations
(CTR) depending on the equipments functionality.
ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] constitutes the conformance test suite referenced by this TBR. The
verification of the conformance requirements in this TBR is based on the tests described in this reference.
The set of requirements in ETS 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10) [2] and the set of requirements in this TBR need
not be identical.
Some requirements only apply to specific types of mobile station (e.g. data tests only apply to mobile
stations with a data facility). The TBR also indicates the specific test which shall be carried out for each
mobile station type.
An active accessory is covered by this TBR if it modifies the terminal performance in an aspect which
affects conformance to essential requirements.
NOTE 2: Only active devices are subject to this TBR. Accessories may be tested with specific
terminals, and either approved for use with those terminals only, or may possibly be
approved for use with a wider range of terminals, depending on the nature and effect
of the accessory.
