Monitoring system. The class B system is more suitable for networks comprising very many terminals.
ETSI
8 ETSI EN 301 428 V2.1.1 (2016-05)
The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given geo-stationary satellite for the protection of
the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operator or the
satellite network operators. For this reason the requirement on the cross polarization discrimination which was in ETSI
TBR 028 [i.4] has not been copied in the present document and inter-modulation limits inside the band 14,0 GHz to
14,5 GHz are to be determined by system design and are subject to satellite operator specifications.
The requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with other radio services. The levels,
however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence.
The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing
individually repeated transient phenomena or a continuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the
near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or
the interfered part or both.
The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or information about the installation of the
VSAT.
All parts of the indoor unit related to reception, processing and presentation of the received information except the
control channel are not within the scope of the present document. The syntax of the control channel messages is outside
the scope of the present document.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSATs) which have the following characteristics:
• The VSAT is operating in one or more frequency ranges in the part of the following bands allocated
exclusively to the Fixed Satellite Services (FSS):
- 14,00 GHz to 14,25 GHz (earth-to-space);
- 12,50 GHz to 12,75 GHz (space-to-earth);
or in the shared parts of the following bands, allocated to the FSS and Fixed Services (FS):
- 14,25 GHz to 14,50 GHz (earth-to-space);
- 10,70 GHz to 11,70 GHz (space-to-earth).
• The VSAT uses linear polarization.
• The VSAT operates through a geostationary satellite at least 3° away from any other geostationary satellite
operating in the same frequency band and covering the same area.
• The VSAT antenna diameter does not exceed 3,8 m, or equivalent effective area.
• The VSAT is either:
- a transmit only VSAT: designed for transmission only of radio-communications signals in any of the
frequency bands (earth-to-space) specified above; or
- a transmit and receive VSAT: designed for transmission and reception of radio-communications signals
in any of the frequency bands specified above; or
- a receive only VSAT: designed for reception only of radio-communications signals in any of the
frequency bands (space-earth) specified above.
• The VSAT is designed usually for unattended operation.
• The VSAT is operating as part of a satellite network (e.g. star, mesh or point-to-point) used for the distribution
and/or exchange of information between users.
• The transmit-only and transmit-and-receive VSAT is controlled and monitored by a Centralized Control and
Monitoring Function (CCMF). The CCMF is outside the scope of the present document.
The present document applies to the VSAT with its ancillary equipment and its various terrestrial ports, and when
operated within the boundary limits of the operational environmental profile declared by the applicant and when
installed as required by the applicant by declaration or in the user documentation.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [4] (RE Directive) article 3.2, which
states that "… radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of

Introduction The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to cover all radio equipment under the RE Directive [4]. The modular structure is shown in ETSI EG 201 399 [i.1]. Figure 1: Void Remarks on the present document The present document allows the choice of either a class A Control and Monitoring system or a class B Control and Monitoring system. The class B system is more suitable for networks comprising very many terminals.
ETSI ETSI EN 301 428 V2.1.1 (2016-05) 8 The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given geo-stationary satellite for the protection of the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operator or the satellite network operators. For this reason the requirement on the cross polarization discrimination which was in ETSI TBR 028 [i.4] has not been copied in the present document and inter-modulation limits inside the band 14,0 GHz to 14,5 GHz are to be determined by system design and are subject to satellite operator specifications. The requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with other radio services. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing individually repeated transient phenomena or a continuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or the interfered part or both. The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or information about the installation of the VSAT. All parts of the indoor unit related to reception, processing and presentation of the received information except the control channel are not within the scope of the present document. The syntax of the control channel messages is outside the scope of the present document. SIST EN 301 428 V2.1.1:2016
ETSI ETSI EN 301 428 V2.1.1 (2016-05) 9 1 Scope The present document applies to Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSATs) which have the following characteristics: • The VSAT is operating in one or more frequency ranges in the part of the following bands allocated exclusively to the Fixed Satellite Services (FSS): - 14,00 GHz to 14,25 GHz (earth-to-space); - 12,50 GHz to 12,75 GHz (space-to-earth);
or in the shared parts of the following bands, allocated to the FSS and Fixed Services (FS): - 14,25 GHz to 14,50 GHz (earth-to-space); - 10,70 GHz to 11,70 GHz (space-to-earth). • The VSAT uses linear polarization. • The VSAT operates through a geostationary satellite at least 3° away from any other geostationary satellite operating in the same frequency band and covering the same area. • The VSAT antenna diameter does not exceed 3,8 m, or equivalent effective area. • The VSAT is either: - a transmit only VSAT: designed for transmission only of radio-communications signals in any of the frequency bands (earth-to-space) specified above; or - a transmit and receive VSAT: designed for transmission and reception of radio-communications signals in any of the frequency bands specified above; or - a receive only VSAT: designed for reception only of radio-communications signals in any of the frequency bands (space-earth) specified above. • The VSAT is designed usually for unattended operation. • The VSAT is operating as part of a satellite network (e.g. star, mesh or point-to-point) used for the distribution and/or exchange of information between users. • The transmit-only and transmit-and-receive VSAT is controlled and monitored by a Centralized Control and Monitoring Function (CCMF). The CCMF is outside the scope of the present document. The present document applies to the VSAT with its ancillary equipment and its various terrestrial ports, and when operated within the boundary limits of the operational environmental profile declared by the applicant and when installed as required by the applicant by declaration or in the user documentation. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [4] (RE Directive) article 3.2, which states that "… radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the Directive 2014/53/EU (RE Directive) [4] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org/. SIST EN 301 428 V2.1.1:2016
