Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Transmission and Multiplexing (TM).
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of
technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC [2] of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive").
Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [2] are given in annex A.
This multi-part deliverable covers characteristics and requirements for fixed multipoint radio equipment and antennas
using a variety of access and duplex methods and operating at a variety of bit rates in frequency bands as specified in
the present document.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering the Fixed Radio Systems; Multipoint Equipment and
Antennas, as identified below:
Part 1: "Overview and Requirements for Digital Multipoint Radio Systems";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive for
Digital Multipoint Radio Equipment";
Part 3: "Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive for
Multipoint Radio Antennas".
The present document and EN 302 326-3 [12] are Harmonized ENs and essential requirements are those requirements
which are essential under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [2].
In the above, "equipment" includes equipment with integral antennas, and "antennas" include requirements for antennas
whether they are integral or non-integral.
Besides its previous version V1.1.1, the present document with EN 302 326-3 [12] replaces and supersedes the
harmonized EN 301 753 (see bibliography) for all MP equipment and antennas under its scope.

1 Scope
1.1 General
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [2] regarding article 3.2, 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".
The present document is applicable to the essential requirements of equipment (including equipment with integral
antennas) used in MultiPoint (MP) Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) (see note) intended for use in the frequency
bands identified in EN 302 326-1 [11].
NOTE 1: Applications intended for offering in the bands 3,4 GHz to 3,8 GHz the option of Nomadic Wireless
Access (NWA), according to the NWA definition in ITU-R Recommendation F.1399 (see bibliography),
are also considered in the scope of this EN.
Besides its previous versions, The present document, together with EN 302 326-3 [12] replaces and supersedes, after a
suitable transition period, the harmonized EN 301 753 (see bibliography) for all multipoint equipment and antennas
under its scope.
The present document and EN 302 326-3 [12] introduce rationalization among systems conforming to previous
EN 301 753 (see bibliography) referencing a number of ENs which, being developed at different times, might have
specified slightly different requirements. However, care has been taken so that such variations will not affect any
frequency planning assumption for already deployed networks. Therefore, unless specifically mentioned, these new
requirements, whenever different from those single ENs, are considered completely "equivalent". Therefore mixed use
of equipment conforming to the present document and to those previous ones will not change, in practice, any
frequency planning rule in any network.
Therefore, from a strictly technical point of view, in most cases it is expected that equipment already conforming to the
previous versions of Harmonized EN 301 753 (see bibliography), would not need re-assessment of essential
requirements according to the present document. The legal implications of the declaration of conformity and equipment
labelling are, however, outside the scope of this whole multi-part deliverable. Cases, where additional conformance
assessment is anyhow required, will be specifically mentioned in the present document and also EN 302 326-3 [12].
In addition to the present document, other ENs specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under
other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [2] and which will apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE 2: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.
In order to (technically) cover different market and network requirements, with an appropriate balance of performance
to cost and effective and appropriate use of the radio spectrum, the present document, together with EN 302 326-3 [12],
offers a number of system types and antennas alternatives, for selection by administrations, operators and manufacturers
dependent on the desired use of the radio spectrum and network/market requirements; those options include:
• channel separation alternatives (as provided by the relevant CEPT Recommendation);
• spectral efficiency class alternatives (different modulation formats provided in radio equipment standards);
• antenna sectorization alternatives and directivity classes for CS;
• antenna directivity class alternatives for TS and/or RS, as well as omnidirectional alternative for TS intended
for Nomadic Wireless Access (NWA);
• antenna basic polarization (linear or circular).
The applicability of this whole multi-part deliverable to MP equipment is governed by the definition of a number of
system profiles that define the set of consistent requirements as described in EN 302 326-1 [11] to which equipment
shall conform.
ETSI
10 ETSI EN 302 326-2 V1.2.2 (2007-06)
The present document is considered applicable to fixed radio systems products with integral antennas, for which all the
technical requirements included in the present document and in EN 302 326-3 [12] apply, and to separate equipment
products, to which only the relevant technical requirements apply, and which might therefore be subject to separate
declarations of conformity with respect to the essential requirements of the R&TTE Directive [2].
1.2 Classification of equipment
The present document is applicable, in principle to multipoint radio system equipment using any access method,
operating in some combinations of frequency bands, equipment variations on the above access methods (referred to as
secondary equipment type), equivalent modulation orders and channel separation.
The applicability of this whole multi-part deliverable to MP equipment is governed by the definition of a number of
system profiles that define the set of consistent requirements (see clause 1.3) to which equipment shall conform. The
supplier shall uniquely identify in the technical construction file which Equipment Classification(s) (EqC) (among those
limited sets defined in clause 1.3) apply to his equipment and assess it consequently.
Those sets of parameters, relevant to article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [2], have been derived from a set of previous
ENs that historically included only parameters derived from a finite number of combinations of basic system
characteristics.
However, from the article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [2] point of view, it is not required that the systems to be assessed
physically conform to a specific system description. It is, however, necessary that the equipment should conform to a
consistent set of parameters as designated in the present document. The set of parameters for conformance shall be
indicated by the supplier, according to the classification method described in annex A to EN 302 326-1 [11].
The basic system characteristics are described in the introduction of EN 302 326-1 [11].
1.3 Profiles
1.3.1 General
This whole multi-part deliverable allows many distinct types of equipment, several different antenna types and several
ways in which they might be interconnected to form a network. However, within this whole multi-part deliverable these
are restricted to certain combination of attributes and these combinations of attributes are called "profiles". The
following clauses address:
• Equipment profiles.
• Antenna profiles.
• System profiles.
1.3.2 Equipment profiles
The applicability of the present document is limited to alternative consistent sets of recommendations and requirements,
each for identified equipment profiles, which are defined in terms of their Equipment Classification (EqC) which
classify equipments in terms of key characteristics. The profiles (or indeed any specific equipment) within the scope of
this whole multi-part deliverable may be classified as discussed in normative annex A of EN 302 326-1 [11] in terms of
the various fields of EqC, which are:
• Frequency Range (EqC-FR);
• Primary Equipment Type (EqC-PET);
• Secondary Equipment Type (EqC-SET), (where needed to distinguish variants of EqC-PET);
• Equivalent Modulation Order (EqC-EMO);
• Channel separation (EqC-ChS) - or range of separations;
• Station type (EqC-STN).
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 302 326-2 V1.2.2 (2007-06)
Table 1 shows the complete list of equipment profiles within the scope of this multi-part deliverable in terms of the
allowed values (or ranges of values) of the various fields of EqC. The manufacturer shall indicate, in the Technical
Construction File or elsewhere, the profile that the specific equipment shall comply with, by defining the values of
those fields of EqC shown in table 1 that are applicable to the equipment. The equipment shall then comply with all
requirements in EN 302 326-1 [11] and the present document relevant to that EqC.
In the case of asymmetric MP implementations (see clause 1.6 of EN 302 326-1 [11]), the supplier shall identify
separately the profiles of the equipment in the two alternate directions in terms of the various EqC fields, and the
present document shall apply independently to each direction.

NOTE 1: A description of the fields of EqC appears in annex A of EN 302 326-1 [11], and the relationship between
EqC fields and the previous equipment types described in the superseded ENs appears in annex B of
EN 302 326-1 [11].
NOTE 2: In the earlier standards a number of system types were defined (e.g. A, B, C, etc.). Annex B of
EN 302 326-1 [11] indicates the relationship between the earlier system types and the present EqC.
NOTE 3: Although EqC-PET historically has a relationship with a specific multiple access method, any access
method, or combination of access methods, may be used provided that the entire set of requirements
relevant to article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [2] in the present document and, if desired, also other
complimentary requirements in EN 302 326-1 [11] are met for the stated EqC-PET value.
NOTE 4: In the EqC-EMO column, the reference made to the modulation order is only indicative, and any equivalent
modulation scheme is allowed provided that the whole set of requirements relevant to article 3.2 of the
R&TTE Directive [2] in the present document and, if desired, also other complimentary requirements in
EN 302 326-1 [11] are met for the manufacturer's stated EqC-EMO value. For mixed-mode systems
EqC-EMO=1 might also be provided, among other more efficient EMO, within the same channel separations.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 302 326-2 V1.2.2 (2007-06)
NOTE 5: For certain primary equipment types (EqC-PET) it has historically been necessary to sub-divide the
equipments according to further characteristics which have different consistent sets of requirements.
Although no longer tied to specific characteristics, this subdivision is reflected in Secondary Equipment Type
(EqC-SET) classifications which are represented by various two-letter codes.
(See annex A of EN 302 326-1 [11]).
NOTE 6: The EqC-ChS column indicates range of ChS values for which the present document is applicable. Several
parameters in the present document are given for discrete values of ChS only. For intermediate ChS values,
methods are given for deriving the required characteristics with the default being by interpolation between
the two nearest adjacent ChS values.
NOTE 7: The EqC-FR column represents the basic frequency range for which the present document is applicable. For
assessment purpose the specific frequency band of the equipment/antenna operation should be defined
(e.g. EqC-FR = 3,5 or EqC - FR = 3,4 - 3,6) according the assessment rules for wide band equipment and
antennas defined in annex B of the present document.
NOTE 8: Systems of EqC-PET = H, implementing an actual FH-CDMA access method with hopping period exceeding
400 ms, are not considered within the scope of the present document.

For defining the coherent set of essential test suites for conformity assessment, a number of declared EqC codes and
other parameters are needed as declaration from the supplier. Standing the considerable number of possibilities under
the scope of the present document summarized in table 1 and, for systems with integral antennas in table 3, it is
recommended to consider the production of a summary table, such as table E.1 proposed in informative annex E, to be
attached as header of the technical construction file and/or test documentation for aid the correct identification of the
equipment/system profile by any interested third party.
1.3.3 Antenna profiles
According to their characteristics, multipoint systems use different types of antennas as indicated in clause 1.3.4.
Table 2 outlines the multipoint antenna types described in EN 302 326-3 [12].
Table 2: Antenna Types
Frequency Range Types Polarization Notes
1 GHz to 3 GHz Directional Linear The sectored and omni directional antennas
Sectored single beam may have a symmetric or asymmetric
Omni directional radiation pattern in the elevation plane.
3 GHz to 11 GHz Directional Linear The sectored single and omni directional
Sectored single beam antennas may have a symmetric or
Sectored multibeam (up to asymmetric radiation pattern in the elevation
5,9 GHz only) plane. The sectored multi beam antennas
Omni directional have a symmetric radiation pattern only.
1 GHz to 11 GHz Directional Circular The sectored and omni directional antennas
Sectored single beam may have a symmetric or asymmetric
Omni directional radiation pattern in the elevation plane.
24,25 GHz to 30 GHz Directional Linear
Sectored single beam
30 GHz to 40,5 GHz Directional Linear The omni directional antennas may have a
Sectored single beam symmetric or asymmetric radiation pattern in
Omni directional the elevation plane.

The present document is applicable to multipoint radio system antennas of both linear (single or dual) polarization and
circular (single or dual) polarization. Linear polarization antennas may support either or both of two mutually
perpendicular planes of polarization. These planes are frequently, though not always, horizontal and vertical. Circular
polarization antennas may support either right hand or left hand polarization or, for dual polarization, both.
The RPE directional characteristics and polarization characteristics (co-polar and cross-polar and for either linear or
circular polarized antennas) impact the interference considerations in network planning. A number of antenna options
are defined in EN 302 326-3 [12] to allow a trade-off between highly demanding RPE directivity and the
cost/size/weight of the antennas. The antenna choice should take into account the constraints of present and future
networks requirements and constraints.
Annex B of EN 302 326-3 [12] discusses Antenna Profiles for multipoint systems.

1.3.4 System profiles
This multi-part deliverable applies only to Multipoint systems using the following antenna type to station type
combinations according to whether the network topology is P-MP or MP-MP (Mesh). Table 3 indicates which system
profiles are within the scope of this multi-part deliverable.
Table 3: System Profiles within the scope of this multi-part deliverable:
Antenna types - Station types combinations
Antenna types
Network Station types Omni directional Sectored Directional
topology
P-MP Central Station (CS) Yes Yes No
(see note 1) (see note 1)
Repeater Station (RS)
Facing CS No No Yes
Facing TS or further RS Yes Yes Yes
Terminal Station (TS) Yes (see note 2) No Yes
MP-MP Repeater Station (RS) No No Yes
NOTE 1: Sectored antennas with beamwidth < 15° shall conform to the specification otherwise applicable to a directional
antenna.
NOTE 2: Omnidirectional TS antennas are limited to typically indoor deployment (e.g. desk antennas) for NWA
applications in 3,4 GHz to 3,8 GHz bands. Nor outdoor deployable at fixed location, neither integral to handheld
TS, are considered antennas within the scope of this multi-part deliverable.

1.4 Frequency ranges
The present document is applicable to multipoint radio systems operating in bands allocated to Fixed Service and
assigned by national regulations to MP applications, at the date of publication of the present document, within the
following frequency ranges:
• 30 MHz to 11,00 GHz.
• 24,25 GHz to 29,50 GHz.
• 31,00 GHz to 33,40 GHz.
NOTE: Attention is drawn to the fact that the specific operating bands are subject to CEPT or national licensing
rules.
Currently applicable Fixed Service bands and channel plans are described in EN 302 326-1 [11], although the
applicability of these Fixed Service bands is at the discretion of the national administrations and it is intended that this
whole multi-part deliverable shall be applied only to frequency bands which are co-ordinated, whether such
co-ordination is on a national or CEPT basis.
Antenna characteristics are not specified at frequencies below 1,0 GHz. Therefore, for either non-integral antennas
below this limit or for equipment with integral antennas below this limit, the present document and EN 302 326-3 [12]
are not sufficient for the Declaration of Conform
