Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM), and is now submitted for the ETSI standards
One-step Approval Procedure.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering the Ground-based VHF hand-held, mobile and fixed
radio transmitters, receivers and transceivers for the VHF aeronautical mobile service using amplitude modulation; as
identified below:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics and methods of measurement";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".

Proposed national transposition dates
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 3 months after ETSI publication
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e): 6 months after doa
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 18 months after doa

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 and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive. The modular
structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document applies to DSB AM ground base stations, with channel separations of 8,33 kHz or 25 kHz
intended for analogue speech intended for ACARS data communication. The scope of the present document is limited
to ground based stations, ground mobile and hand held radios for ground use.These radio equipment types are capable
of operating in all or any part of the Aeronautical frequency band- between 118°MHz and 136,975°MHz.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive), article 3.2,
which states that ". radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively (and efficiently) uses the spectrum
allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as 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 R&TTE Directive as well as essential requirements under the Single European Sky
Interoperability Regulation (as amended) [i.2] and related implementing rules 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.}
