1 Scope
The present document states the minimum operational and performance requirements for shipborne receivers intended
to be connected to an external installation, including a decoder for DSC, and used as receivers for watchkeeping DSC
on board ships operating in the mobile MF, MF/HF and VHF band allocated in the ITU Radio Regulations [1] to the
maritime mobile service, both in connection with distress and safety communication and in connection with general
communication.
These requirements include the relevant provisions of the ITU Radio Regulations [1], ITU-R Recommendations
M.493-12 [3], M.541-9 [10], M.489-2 [9] and the IMO Resolutions A.803(19), A.804(19), A.806(19) and A.694(17).
The present document specifies also technical characteristics, methods of testing and required test results for dedicated
watchkeeping receivers for use with radio installations in the GMDSS as required by chapter IV of the SOLAS.
It covers both receivers with analogue output or with digital DSC signal output interfaces or with both.
DSC watchkeeping receivers may be a separate equipment or be integrated with a DSC or radiotelephone equipment.
For integrated equipment the present document specifies the requirements and methods of testing of the DSC
watchkeeping receivers only.
DSC watchkeeping receivers can be either fixed-frequency receivers or, in MF/HF bands, scanning receivers.
Requirements for the DSC equipment or radiotelephone equipment are given in EN 300 338-2 [12], EN 301 925 [11]
and EN 300 373-1 [13] respectively.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
assigned frequency: centre of the frequency band assigned to a station
continuous watch: continuous watch means that the radio watch concerned is not interrupted other than for brief
intervals when the ship's receiving capability is impaired or blocked by its own communications or when the facilities
are under periodical maintenance or check
F1B: frequency modulation with digital information, without a sub-carrier for automatic reception
G2B: phase-modulation with digital information, with a sub-carrier for automatic reception
J2B: single sideband with digital information, with the use of a modulating sub-carrier for automatic reception, with the
carrier suppressed to at least 40 dB below peak envelope power
performance check: check of calling sensitivity (see clause 7.2)

ETSI ETSI EN 301 033 V1.3.1 (2010-09) 8 1 Scope The present document states the minimum operational and performance requirements for shipborne receivers intended to be connected to an external installation, including a decoder for DSC, and used as receivers for watchkeeping DSC on board ships operating in the mobile MF, MF/HF and VHF band allocated in the ITU Radio Regulations [1] to the maritime mobile service, both in connection with distress and safety communication and in connection with general communication. These requirements include the relevant provisions of the ITU Radio Regulations [1], ITU-R Recommendations M.493-12 [3], M.541-9 [10], M.489-2 [9] and the IMO Resolutions A.803(19), A.804(19), A.806(19) and A.694(17). The present document specifies also technical characteristics, methods of testing and required test results for dedicated watchkeeping receivers for use with radio installations in the GMDSS as required by chapter IV of the SOLAS. It covers both receivers with analogue output or with digital DSC signal output interfaces or with both. DSC watchkeeping receivers may be a separate equipment or be integrated with a DSC or radiotelephone equipment. For integrated equipment the present document specifies the requirements and methods of testing of the DSC watchkeeping receivers only. DSC watchkeeping receivers can be either fixed-frequency receivers or, in MF/HF bands, scanning receivers. Requirements for the DSC equipment or radiotelephone equipment are given in EN 300 338-2 [12], EN 301 925 [11] and EN 300 373-1 [13] respectively. 2 References References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.
