- Abstract
Addition of part 2 to the 40 GHz MWS standard, to include essential harmonised parameters under the R&TTE Directive 1999/05/EC Equipment performance characteristics and parameters necessary to facilitate coexistence between broadband Multimedia Wireless Systems (MWS) in either; adjacent frequency assignments in the same geographical area or co-frequency assignments in neighbouring geographical areas.

These MWS systems may offer different degrees of interactivity.Therefore systems are anticipated that could deliver services requiring either asymmetric data rates, (including uni-directional distribution systems) or symmetric data rates between uplink and downlink. Any asymmetry between uplink and downlink may be fixed or dynamically variable to suit the traffic characteristics at any time. This standard covers equipments that operate within the frequency band 40.5 to 43.5 GHz. The general equipment parameters will be described in Part 1 of the standard The essential harmonised parameters under the R&TTE Directive will be specified in Part 2 of the standard.

SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1, a harmonized European standard for radio equipment used in Multimedia Wireless Systems (MWS) in the 40,5 GHz to 43,5 GHz band. It specifies the essential spectrum-related requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive for manufacturers, antenna suppliers, test laboratories, and conformity assessors.
What does SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 specify?
SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 covers MWS equipment that operates in block assignments in the 40,5 GHz to 43,5 GHz band. Its purpose is to state the parameters that matter for coexistence and efficient spectrum use, especially where systems share adjacent or nearby geographical areas.
The scope describes MWS as terrestrial multipoint systems for fixed wireless access to the end user for multimedia services. It includes both symmetric and asymmetric traffic, including uni-directional distribution systems, because those service patterns affect how links are planned and tested in practice.
The standard is Part 2 of a two-part series:
- Part 1 gives the general requirements.
- Part 2 gives the harmonized requirements that support article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive.
The document is organized into four main clauses and three informative annexes.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | Maximum transmitter EIRP guidance, including a table and the block-edge mask |
| Annex B | Bibliography |
| Annex C | The EN title in the official languages |
The scope also notes that equipment intended to operate outside ECC/REC 01-04 may need additional requirements, and that national licensing bodies may limit the options allowed locally.
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004?
SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 turns the broad spectrum-use requirement of the R&TTE Directive into measurable radio and antenna parameters. The most important points are the declared operating range, power and mask limits, test conditions, and the way results are reported.
Environmental profile and test conditions - Clause 4.2 requires the manufacturer or person placing the apparatus on the market to declare the environmental profile, and the equipment and antennas must meet the standard within that declared range. Tests for conformity are carried out at reference and extreme climatic conditions where relevant. In practice, the declared environment becomes part of the compliance claim.
Frequency range covered by the tests - Clause 4.3.1 says radio equipment must comply at every operating frequency it can use. For single-channel equipment, one arbitrarily chosen channel is tested; for equipment with a wider range, the report must cover the lowest, intermediate, and highest possible channels. Clause 4.3.2 applies the same idea to antennas, with tests at the low, middle, and high frequencies of the declared range.
Multi-rate and multi-format operation - Clause 4.4 requires compliance across the intended payload rates and modulation formats. Transmit phenomena are tested at each intended bit-rate and modulation format, while receive phenomena are tested at the lowest and highest bit-rate for each modulation format. This matters when one product supports several service profiles.
Radio frequency tolerance and block-edge behavior - Clause 4.5.1 limits RF tolerance to less than 30 ppm around the nominal channel centre frequency, and the declared tolerance must keep emissions within the block-edge mask over the declared environmental range. Clause 4.5.2 requires the maximum EIRP density to be declared, and annex A reproduces the block-edge mask from ECC/REC 01-04. In practice, the transmitter must stay within the allowed spectral footprint even when tolerances and ATPC are considered.
Adjacent channel power and power control - Clause 4.5.3.1 treats the EIRP density mask as voluntary, but recommends that the manufacturer declare which ETSI mask is met or provide the actual mask plot. Clauses 4.5.3.2 to 4.5.3.5 cover block-edge spacing, Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC), and Remote Transmit Power Control (RTPC). ATPC is mandatory for TS transmitters above the stated power-density threshold, while RTPC is optional. This matters because the declared power-control range affects both network planning and interference control.
Spurious emissions and directional behavior - Clause 4.5.4 requires compliance with EN 301 390 for spurious emissions in any ATPC or RTPC setting. Clause 4.6 requires antennas to meet EN 301 215-1 and EN 301 215-3, with Radiation Pattern Envelope (RPE) and antenna-gain testing. Clause 4.7 says that, when operating in accordance with the ECC block-edge requirements, the only essential receiving phenomenon is spurious emissions. This keeps the conformity focus on interference control rather than receiver performance in general.
What terms does SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 define?
- Environmental profile - The range of environmental conditions under which the equipment or antennas must comply with the standard.
- Essential phenomenon - A radio-frequency phenomenon linked to the essential requirements of article 3.2 that can be expressed as a measurable technical parameter.
- Operating frequency range - The set of radio-frequency channels the Equipment Under Test (EUT) can use without changing hardware units.
- Radio frequency channel arrangement - A predefined raster of centre frequencies used by administrations to coordinate channels in the same geographical area.
- Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC) - A function that varies transmit power dynamically so the transmitter uses full power mainly during deep fading.
- Remote Transmit Power Control (RTPC) - A function that lets a local or remote management terminal change and control transmitter output power.
- Remote Frequency Control (RFC) - A function that lets a local or remote management terminal change and control the transmit or receive centre frequency or channel.
Who uses SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004?
SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 is used by radio equipment manufacturers, antenna suppliers, and the persons responsible for placing the apparatus on the market when they prepare declarations of conformity and test reports. It is also used by test laboratories that need repeatable procedures for frequency, power, mask, and antenna checks.
Network planners, operators, and frequency co-ordination bodies use it to understand coexistence limits in the 40,5 GHz to 43,5 GHz band. Regulators and conformity assessment bodies use it when assessing whether an MWS product fits the harmonized route for the R&TTE framework.

What does the SIST EN 301 997-2 V1.1.1:2004 document contain?
The document contains the clauses needed to turn spectrum-sharing requirements into testable limits for MWS equipment and antennas. Clause 4 sets out environmental conditions, frequency selection for testing, multi-rate operation, transmitter limits, spurious emissions, directional behavior, and receiver-related essentials.
Annex A gives informative guidance on maximum transmitter EIRP and reproduces the block-edge mask. Annex B lists background references, and Annex C provides the title in several official languages. The body of the standard repeatedly points to the EN 301 126 test family, so the user can trace each requirement to a corresponding test method and report format.

The left hand edge of the figure 1 shows the different clauses of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1].
For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Dotted lines indicate that at the time of publication of the present
document essential requirements in these areas have to be adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements
are adopted, and as far and as long as they are applicable, they will justify individual standards whose scope is likely to
be specified by function or interface type.
The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum by radio equipment. The
scopes of these standards are specified either by frequency (normally in the case where frequency bands are
harmonized) or by radio equipment type.
For article 3.1b the diagram shows EN 301 489, the multi-part product EMC standard for radio used under the EMC
Directive.
For article 3.1a the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LV Directive and new
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. New standards covering acoustic safety may also be
required.
The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. A particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both. A radio
spectrum standard will apply if it is radio equipment. An article 3.3 standard will apply as well only if the relevant
essential requirement under the R&TTE Directive [1] is adopted by the Commission and if the equipment in question is
covered by the scope of the corresponding standard. Thus, depending on the nature of the equipment, the essential
requirements under the R&TTE Directive [1] may be covered in a set of standards.
The modularity principle has been taken because:
- it minimizes the number of standards needed. Because equipment may, in fact, have multiple interfaces and
functions it is not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may
occur in an equipment;
- it provides scope for standards to be added:
- under article 3.2 when new frequency bands are agreed; or
- under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions without requiring alteration of
standards that are already published;
- it clarifies, simplifies and promotes the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity
assessment.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Multimedia Wireless Systems (MWS) in the band 40,5 GHz to 43,5 GHz, which
operate in block assignments, according to ECC/REC 01-04 [19]. It includes those parameters considered to be essential
under article 3.2 of the Directive 1999/5/EC [1], 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". Where equipment is intended for operation other than as specified in ECC/REC 01-04 [19] there
may be additional requirements outside the scope of the present document.
The relevant equipment parameters in EN 301 997-1 [13] are referenced as well as antenna parameters in
EN 301 215-3 [3]. These standards also contain other requirements that are not considered essential for the
R&TTE Directive [1], but are nevertheless recommended on a voluntary basis to meet relevant network performance
objectives as defined by international standardizing bodies.
A wide range of Multimedia Wireless Systems (MWS) is possible. The present document covers a range of alternatives,
for which the access methods and corresponding test requirements are specified in available relevant ETSI standards
and referred to in EN 301 997-1 [13]. Similarly, antennas other than those specified in available and relevant ETSI
standards may also be proposed.
A range of antenna and equipment types and corresponding test methods are covered by the present document.
However, it should be noted that, national regulatory bodies, according to article 7.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] may,
for the purpose of local licensing, limit the options permitted.
For system variants that do not use the access methods or do not meet the ETSI specified parameters for equipment in
EN 301 213-1 [14], EN 301 213-2 [15], EN 301 213-3 [16], EN 301 213-4 [17], EN 301 213-5 [18] or antennas in
EN 301 215-1 [2], EN 301 215-3 [3], CE marking may also be possible via one of the alternative routes described in the
Directive 1999/5/EC [1].

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
allocated radio frequency band: entry in the table of frequency allocations of a given frequency band for the purpose
of its use by one or more terrestrial or space radiocommunication services or the radio astronomy service under specific
conditions
NOTE: This term shall also be applied to the frequency band concerned (ITU Radio Regulations article 1,
No. 17).
Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC): function to offer a dynamic power control that delivers the maximum
power only during deep fading activity; in this way, for most of the time, the interference is reduced and the transmitter
operates in a higher linearity mode
NOTE: When this function is used the transmit power is dynamically changed and follows the propagation
condition. In principle when ATPC is implemented three different level of power may be identified:
Maximum available power (delivered only in a condition of deep fading).
Maximum nominal and maximum available power levels may be coincident or in case of
multi-state modulation formats the maximum available power may be used to overdrive the
transmitter (losing linearity but gaining fade margin when the fade conditions have already
impaired the expected RBER). Performance prediction is usually made with the highest "available
power".
Maximum nominal power (useable on permanent base when ATPC is disabled); it should be noted
that this power is "nominal for the equipment" and has not to be confused with the "nominal level
set link by link" by the frequency co-ordination body, eventually achieved through passive RF
attenuators or RTPC function.
Minimum power (delivered in unfaded condition).
conformity assessment procedure: See Directive 1999/5/EC [1], annexes II, III, IV and V.
environmental profile: range of environmental conditions under which equipment, within the scope of the present
document, is required to comply with the provisions of EN 301 997-2
essential phenomenon: radio frequency phenomenon related to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of the
Directive 1999/5/EC that is capable of expression in terms of quantifiable technical parameters
harmonized radio frequency band: commonly referred as a portion of the frequency spectrum that CEPT/ERC
allocates to a specific service through a CEPT/ERC Decision (proper definition is currently under study by CEPT/ERC)
NOTE: Presently radio frequency bands allocated to Fixed Service are not harmonized.
maximum available power: See Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC).
maximum nominal power: See Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC).
national radio frequency channel arrangement: predefined centre frequencies raster for a number of radio frequency
channels covered by a national regulation in a not harmonized frequency band used in a country (it may all or in part
overlap with other national or recommended radio frequency channel arrangements)
operating frequency range: range(s) of radio frequency channels covered by the Equipment Under Test (EUT)
without any change of HW units
radio equipment: product or relevant component thereof capable of communication by means of the emission and/or
reception of radio waves utilizing the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communication
NOTE: See article 2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [1].
