SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1. It provides a Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma for Broadband Radio Access Networks (BRAN) HIPERLAN Type 2 conformance testing of the Data Link Control (DLC) protocol. The document is used to record which mandatory and optional capabilities are implemented in a Mobile Terminal (MT) or Access Point (AP) for the basic data transport function defined in TS 101 761-1.

What does SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 specify?

SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 specifies the PICS proforma for the BRAN HIPERLAN Type 2 DLC basic data transport function. It tells a supplier how to declare implementation options in a standardized, tabular way so that conformance testing can compare what the product supports against TS 101 761-1.

The document is organized into four clauses and one normative annex:

PartWhat it covers
Clauses 1-4Scope, references, definitions and abbreviations, and the rule for conformance to the proforma
Annex A (normative)The Protocol ICS proforma for TS 101 761-1, including completion guidance, role selection, capability tables, PDU descriptions and PDU parameters

The scope focuses on optional functions in addition to the mandatory ones, so the completed form captures the implementation choices that matter in practice.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006?

SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 is mainly a completion and declaration document. Its key requirements are about how the PICS is filled in, what must be declared, and how the MT and AP roles are separated.

  • Clause 4 and Annex A.1 require the completed PICS to be technically equivalent to the annex text, with the same numbering, naming and ordering. In practice, a supplier cannot rearrange items or replace the proforma with a free-form description.
  • Annex A.1.2 defines the status codes m, o, n/a, x, o.i, ci and i, and the support entries Y, N and N/A. This gives the person completing the form a clear way to show whether a capability is mandatory, optional, prohibited, conditional or outside scope.
  • Annex A.1.3 requires an explicit answer in every support field, with comments only where needed. The MT tables are completed for MT implementations and the AP tables for AP implementations, so the same product may need different PICS documents depending on its role.
  • Annex A.2 collects identification data for the IUT, SUT, product supplier, client and PICS contact person. In practice, this ties the conformance statement to a specific product version, hardware setup and contact point.
  • Annex A.4 asks whether all mandatory capabilities are implemented. A No answer means the implementation is non-conforming to TS 101 761-1, and any missing mandatory item must be identified and explained.
  • Annex A.5 requires at least one role, MT or AP, and states that two copies are needed if both roles are described. This matters because role selection affects which capability tables apply.
  • Annex A.6 divides the technical content into Acknowledged mode, Repetition mode and Unacknowledged mode. The tables cover transmitter and receiver behavior such as CRC handling, sequence numbers, windows, retransmission, flow control, reset handling and discard handling.
  • Annex A.6.1.3.4 and A.6.1.3.5 state that Unacknowledged mode has no control flow and no control messages. For implementers, that means control-channel behavior is not claimed in that mode.
  • Annex A.6.2 and A.6.3 list the CONTROL PDUs and their parameters, including ARQ_feedback_UP, ARQ_feedback_Down, Discard_UP and Discard_Down. These tables are what test labs use to check the message fields that the implementation supports.

What terms does SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 define?

SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 uses the definitions from TS 101 761-1, ISO/IEC 9646-1 and ISO/IEC 9646-7.

  • Implementation Conformance Statement (ICS) - a supplier’s statement of which capabilities are implemented for a given specification.
  • ICS proforma - a questionnaire form that becomes an ICS when the supplier completes it.
  • Protocol ICS (PICS) - an ICS for an implementation or system claimed to conform to a protocol specification.
  • Implementation Under Test (IUT) - the specific implementation whose behavior and features are being described.
  • System Under Test (SUT) - the whole system that contains the IUT and the configuration in which it is tested.
  • Mobile Terminal (MT) - the terminal-side role used in the proforma tables.
  • Access Point (AP) - the network-side role used in the proforma tables.
  • Protocol Data Unit (PDU) - a protocol message unit whose supported fields are listed in Annex A.

Who uses SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006?

SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 is used by suppliers of BRAN HIPERLAN Type 2 implementations when they prepare a PICS for a product. It is also used by conformance test engineers and laboratories that need a consistent declaration of which DLC features are implemented before testing.

Product teams working on MT or AP equipment use it to document mode support, message support and PDU parameters. Quality managers and technical reviewers use the completed form to compare a product’s declared behavior with the underlying TS 101 761-1 requirements.

Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006?

ReferenceContribution
ETSI TS 101 761-1 (V1.1.1)Defines the BRAN HIPERLAN Type 2 DLC basic data transport functions that the PICS proforma describes
ETSI ETS 300 406 (1995)Gives standardization methodology for protocol and profile conformance testing specifications
ISO/IEC 9646-1Provides the general conformance testing concepts and framework, including ICS terminology
ISO/IEC 9646-7Gives the guidance for Implementation Conformance Statements and the tabular PICS format

The foreword also places this document in a multi-part deliverable for Part 1 basic data transport function, alongside sub-part 2, the Test Suite Structure and Test Purposes (TSS&TP) specification, and sub-part 3, the Abstract Test Suite (ATS) specification.

What does the SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 document contain?

SIST EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1:2006 is a questionnaire-style conformance document rather than a test method. Annex A contains guidance for completing the PICS, identification fields for the IUT and SUT, a global conformance statement, role selection, and capability tables for MT and AP implementations.

It then lists the major capabilities for Acknowledged, Repetition and Unacknowledged modes, followed by the control PDUs and their parameters. For test preparation, the useful content is the structured set of tables that show what the supplier must declare about retransmission, flow control, reset, discard behavior and PDU field support.

Annex A (normative):
Protocol ICS proforma for TS 101 761-1
Notwithstanding the provisions of the copyright clause related to the text of the present document, ETSI grants that
users of the present document may freely reproduce the PICS proforma in this annex so that it can be used for its
intended purposes and may further publish the completed PICS.
A.1 Guidance for completing the PICS proforma
A.1.1 Purposes and structure
The purpose of this PICS proforma is to provide a mechanism whereby a supplier of an implementation of the
requirements defined in TS 101 761-1 [1] may provide information about the implementation in a standardized manner.
The PICS proforma is subdivided into subclauses for the following categories of information:
- guidance for completing the PICS proforma;
- identification of the implementation;
- identification of the TS 101 761-1 [1];
- global statement of conformance;
-roles;
- major capabilities;
- PDUs;
- PDU parameters.
A.1.2 Abbreviations and conventions
The PICS proforma contained in this annex is comprised of information in tabular form in accordance with the
guidelines presented in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4].
Item column
The item column contains a number which identifies the item in the table.
Item description column
The item description column describes in free text each respective item (e.g. parameters, timers, etc.). It implicitly
means "is supported by the implementation?".
Status column
The following notations, defined in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4], are used for the status column:
m mandatory - the capability is required to be supported.
o optional - the capability may be supported or not.
n/a not applicable - in the given context, it is impossible to use the capability.
x prohibited (excluded) - there is a requirement not to use this capability in the given context.
ETSI
9 ETSI EN 301 823-1-1 V1.1.1 (2001-01)
o.i qualified optional - for mutually exclusive or selectable options from a set. "i" is an integer which
identifies a unique group of related optional items and the logic of their selection which is defined
immediately following the table.
ci conditional - the requirement on the capability ("m", "o", "x" or "n/a") depends on the support of
other optional or conditional items. "i" is an integer identifying a unique conditional status
expression which is defined immediately following the Table.
i irrelevant (out-of-scope) - capability outside the scope of the reference specification. No answer is
requested from the supplier.
NOTE 1: This use of "i" status is not to be confused with the suffix "i" to the "o" and "c" statuses above.
Reference column
The reference column makes reference to TS 101 761-1 [1], except where explicitly stated otherwise.
Support column
The support column shall be filled in by the supplier of the implementation. The following common notations, defined
in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4], are used for the support column:
Y or y supported by the implementation.
N or n not supported by the implementation.
N/A, n/a or - no answer required (allowed only if the status is n/a, directly or after evaluation of a conditional
status).
If this PICS proforma is completed in order to describe a multiple-profile support in a system, it is necessary to be able
to answer that a capability is supported for one profile and not supported for another. In that case, the supplier shall
enter the unique reference to a conditional expression, preceded by "?" (e.g. ?3). This expression shall be given in the
space for comments provided at the bottom of the table. It uses predicates defined in the SCS, each of which refers to a
single profile and which takes the value TRUE if and only if that profile is to be used.
EXAMPLE 1: ?3: IF prof1 THEN Y ELSE N
NOTE 2: As stated in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4], support for a received PDU requires the ability to parse all valid
parameters of that PDU. Supporting a PDU while having no ability to parse a valid parameter is
non-conformant. Support for a parameter on a PDU means that the semantics of that parameter are
supported.
Values allowed column
The values allowed column contains the type, the list, the range, or the length of values allowed. The following
notations are used:
- range of values: .
example: 5 . 20
- list of values: , , .,
example: 2 ,4 ,6 ,8, 9
example: "1101"B, "1011"B, "1111"B
example: "0A"H, "34"H, "2F"H
- list of named values: (), (), ., ()
example: reject(1), accept(2)
- length: size ( . )
example: s
...
