SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 is the DECT Common Interface Part 9 standard for the Public Access Profile (PAP), published by ETSI and adopted by SIST. It defines the technical requirements for DECT Fixed Parts (FPs) and Portable Parts (PPs) that support Public Access Service (PAS), including the feature set, protocol mapping, and layer behavior needed for public-access operation.
What does SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 specify?
SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 specifies the DECT PAP for public access use. It tells FP and PP equipment what to implement when a product claims DECT PAS capability, and it also covers the technical requirements for optional features when those features are offered.
The document is organized into clauses 1 to 11, followed by informative annexes. Clause 4 defines the public access service features, clause 5 maps those features onto DECT layers, clauses 6 to 11 state the requirements for the NWK, DLC, MAC, PHL, and speech transmission parts of the system.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | Message sequence diagrams for outgoing call, incoming call, release, and location registration |
| Annex B | Set-up attribute codings |
| Annex C | DECT standard authentication algorithm |
| Annex D | DECT standard cipher |
| Annex E | Relationship to DECT Generic Access Profile (GAP) |
| Annex F | Bibliography |
What are the key requirements of SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998?
SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 separates the public access profile into mandatory facilities and optional features. In practice, this means a supplier has to check both the feature list and the “provision mandatory” markings before claiming compliance for a product.
Clause 4 defines the PAP feature set
Clause 4 lists the public access service features, from basic speech and call control to authentication, roaming, encryption, paging, queue management, emergency access, teleservice selection, and subscription-related procedures. The summary table in clause 4 shows which features are mandatory or optional for FP and PP equipment.
This matters because PAP is not just a voice profile. A vendor or buyer can use the table to see whether an implementation supports the service model needed for public access, such as incoming call handling, user validation, location registration, or text and radiopaging.
Clause 5 maps each feature to DECT layers
Clause 5 explains how every feature is carried through the DECT layers and which layers are affected. Table 2 identifies whether a feature touches the MAC, DLC, NWK subfunctions such as LCE, CC, COMS, or MM, and whether an external application is involved.
This is useful when engineering firmware or test plans. It shows where a feature has to be implemented and where to look when a call, page, authentication step, or roaming function fails.
Clause 6 fixes the NWK behavior
Clause 6 points to ETS 300 175-5 for NWK details, then adds PAP-specific requirements. The minimum public access service uses a single CC instance for one independent call and support for two MM procedures, and it should not use extended transaction identifiers.
Clause 6 also fixes coding behavior for authentication and ciphering. The PT shall be able to receive, store, and send back extended location information and a network assigned identity, and the document requires DECT standard authentication algorithm 1 and DECT standard cipher algorithm 1 for the relevant features.
For implementers, this clause defines the call and mobility behavior that public access terminals must exchange with the network. For test teams, it identifies which messages and information elements have to be present in PT and FT behavior.
Clause 7 fixes the DLC behavior
Clause 7 relies on ETS 300 175-4 and adds PAP requirements for the data link. The user plane shall support LU1 transparent unprotected service and the FU1 frame structure, and the control plane covers incoming call and alphanumeric text messaging/radiopaging handling.
This matters for message delivery and low-level transport. It tells designers what the terminal must support below the network layer when carrying control and user information for PAP services.
Clause 8 makes key MAC provisions mandatory
Clause 8 relies on ETS 300 175-3 and requires public access equipment to provide the stated MAC elements. Scrambling of the B field is mandatory, the required message structure is defined for header, tail, and B-field content, and speech quality monitoring uses X-CRC information from the received slot.
This clause is important for radio behavior and interoperability. It affects paging, connection-oriented traffic, broadcast operation, and the way speech quality is checked over the air interface.
Clause 9 adds MAC requirements for optional features
Clause 9 defines the extra MAC provisions needed when optional PAP features are implemented. For incoming call, the FT shall send and the PT shall understand the paging tail content, and the PT shall react correctly to both full page and short page messages.
Clause 9 also adds extra requirements for encryption, bearer service selection, and TARI request handling. For bearer service selection, the document states that only one bearer service is fully supported for connection oriented services, namely MAC service type 1f without CF capability.
Clause 10 defines physical layer limits
Clause 10 requires the PHL behavior from ETS 300 175-2, and it says speech shall use full slots. It also sets a minimum normal transmit power above 80 mW per simultaneously active transmitter, a radio receiver sensitivity of -86 dBm or better, and support for Z-field transmission and reception.
Clause 10 also requires PT and FT to detect sliding collision on received packets. In practice, this gives test engineers concrete radio measurements and packet-failure conditions to verify.
Clause 11 covers speech transmission behavior
Clause 11 applies the speech transmission requirements from ETS 300 175-8. It requires user-controlled volume control in PAP PP equipment, except where adaptive volume control is already incorporated, and it adds a measurable check on the volume range and ambient noise rejection feature.
For product validation, this section matters because it links the radio profile to the audible user experience. It gives the acoustic requirements that have to be checked in portable equipment.
What terms does SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 define?
- DECT - Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications, the cordless radio system family covered by the standard.
- FP - Fixed Part, the fixed-side DECT equipment that provides access and control.
- PP - Portable Part, the portable DECT equipment used by the subscriber.
- FT - Fixed radio Termination, the fixed radio endpoint used in the protocol tables.
- PT - Portable radio Termination, the portable radio endpoint used in the protocol tables.
- PAP - Public Access Profile, the DECT profile defined here for public access use.
- PAS - Public Access Service, the service set that PAP is designed to support.
- UPI - User Personal Identification, used in the user validation features.
Who uses SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998?
SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 is used by DECT equipment designers, base-station and handset engineers, firmware developers, test laboratories, certification teams, and telecom service providers. It is also useful to quality managers and buyers who need to confirm that a product supports the public access feature set they expect.
In practice, these readers use it to design or verify call setup, paging, roaming, authentication, encryption, queue handling, and speech transmission behavior. It is especially relevant when a product is intended to operate in a public access network rather than only in a private cordless system.
What changed in SIST ETS 300 175-9:1998 from the previous edition?
This second edition updates ETS 300 175 based on experience from the development of TBR 6 and TBR 10 and on comments received. The document history also identifies it as the second edition of the PAP part of the DECT Common Interface series.

4 Features for the public access service
4.1 Description of the features
4.1.1 Speech
Circuit-mode 32 kbit/s unrestricted 8 kHz structured bearer service category suitable for speech
information transfer (CCITT Recommendation G.721 (1988), [10]).
4.1.2 Bell on
Activates bell or other user indication controlling process at the target apparatus.
4.1.3 Bell off
Deactivates bell or other user indication controlling process at the target apparatus.
4.1.4 Off-hook
The ability to indicate the action of going off-hook, e.g. to start call set-up or accept a call.
4.1.5 On-hook (full release)
The ability to indicate the action of going on-hook (e.g. to terminate a call) and fully release the radio
resource.
4.1.6 Partial release
The ability to release an established call whilst retaining the radio resource for the purpose of accessing
further services.
4.1.7 Dialled digits (basic)
The capability to dial digits 0-9, *, #.
Page 16
ETS 300 175-9: September 1996
4.1.8 Dialled digits (additional)
The capability to dial digits A, B, C, D (in addition to the basic digits).
4.1.9 Dialling delimiter
A means to generate or otherwise to indicate "end-of-destination-address" when dialling or transmitting
dialled digits.
4.1.10 Dialling delimiter request
The ability to advise that a dialling delimiter is required.
4.1.11 Register recall
To hold an existing call and seize a register (with dial tone) to permit input of further digits or other action.
4.1.12 Go to DTMF
Go to DTMF signalling, with optional indication of Dual Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) tone duration.
4.1.13 Go to pulse
Go to pulse (decadic) signalling.
4.1.14 Pause (interdigit pause)
The ability to generate or indicate an inter-digit pause, e.g. to await further dial tone.
4.1.15 Specific trunk carrier selection
The ability to select a specific trunk carrier for a call through a global network.
4.1.16 Incoming call
A call received at a DECT PP.
4.1.17 Hold call
The ability to hold calls while other services are accessed.
4.1.18 Re-connection of a held call
The re-connection of a previously held call.
4.1.19 Forced re-connection
The forced re-connection of a call which, e.g. has been left on hold for an excessive period of time.

ETS 300 175-9: September 1996
4.1.20 Authentication of PP
The process by which the identity of a DECT PP is checked by the FP.
The standard (common) authentication algorithm shall be built-in to the cordless PP.
The standard (common) authentication algorithm shall be accepted for authentication of roaming public
access service PP.
User authentication key and authentication code to be supported.
Time from initial request for service to completion of successful authentication process should not exceed 2
seconds.
4.1.21 Authentication of user
The process by which the identity of a DECT user is checked by the FP.
The User Personal Identification (UPI), a personal identification of 4 to 8 digits, manually entered by the
user via the keypad, is used for user authentication.
4.1.22 Authentication of FP
The process by which the identity of a FP is checked by the PP.
It is optional to support the authentication of FT in both the PT and FT. If, however, ZAP, key management
or PP data amendment is implemented in the FT then it is mandatory in the FT to support authentication of
FT. The process is the same as that defined for authentication of PT.
User authentication key and authentication code to be supported.
NOTE: They are the same as those for PT, but different for each operator.
4.1.23 Silent polling
The ability of a DECT FP to establish whether a specific PP is within range without alerting the user of that
PP.
4.1.24 Class of service field indication
Indication to the FP by the PP of the contents of its class-of-service field. The information passed across
may vary depending on the system/network/service provider with whom communication is currently made,
as class-of service may vary from one subscription to the other.
4.1.25 Inter-operator roaming registration
The ability to exchange inter-operator roaming data in real time over the air interface during the first
call-attempt between the PP of a subscriber of a home DECT service provider A and the FP of a visited
DECT service provider B, assuming A and B have agreed to offer inter-operator roaming to their
respective subscribers.
4.1.26 Control of supervisory tones
Control of a variety of supervisory (call progress) tones, which may be generated in the PP.
For the public access service, network supervisory signals shall be made available in-band to the PP by
the FP, either by relay from the global or extended services network, or by local generation at the PP.
The provision of a tone generator is optional for public access service PPs.

ETS 300 175-9: September 1996
4.1.27 Regular security handshake
Regular interchange of information (link identifier) between PP and FP during the period between link
initiation and link termination to maintain link in normal operation and to reject unauthorised attempts to
seize link. Interchange at intervals of the order of 1 second is acceptable.
4.1.28 Signalling of display characters
The transmission to the PP of characters to be displayed on the user's PP display (if provided).
4.1.29 Display control characters
Characters sent to the PP to control the user's display in the PP (if provided). Such characters include
cursor control, clear screen, home, flash, inverse video etc.
4.1.30 ZAP suspend
The ability to re-program the account data held in the PP so that access rights are suspended subject to
the conditions set by the service provider being met, coupled with the ability to re-program the account
data again to reinstate access rights once these conditions have been met. One ZAP field shall be
provided per account field. The PP has the right to
