Fixed Radio Systems - Characteristics and requirements for point-to-point equipment and antennas - Part 2-2: Digital systems operating in frequency bands where frequency co-ordination is applied - Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive

The present document specifies the essential requirements for point-to-point Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) operating in frequency division full duplex (FDD) in frequency bands, where co-ordinated link-by-link frequency planning is applied. It is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [1] 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". 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 [1] will 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. For the correct understanding and application of the requirements in the present document, the definitions summarized
in EN 302 217-1 [6] are also relevant.

Fiksni radijski sistemi - Karakteristike in zahteve za opremo in antene tipa točka-točka - 2-2. del: Digitalni sistemi, ki delujejo v frekvenčnih pasovih, kjer je izvedena frekvenčna koordinacija - Harmonizirani EN, ki zajema bistvene zahteve člena 3.2 direktive R&TTE

Ta dokument določa bistvene zahteve za digitalne fiksne radijske sisteme (DFRS) tipa točka-točka, ki delujejo v frekvenčnem polnem dupleksu (FDD) znotraj frekvenčnih pasov, kjer se uporablja usklajeno načrtovanje frekvence od ene povezave do druge. Zajema določbe direktive R&TTE [1] v zvezi s členom 3.2, ki določa, da »/.../ mora biti radijska oprema skonstruirana tako, da učinkovito uporablja spekter, razporejen za prizemne/vesoljske radijske komunikacije in orbitalne vire, tako da ne pride do škodljivih motenj«. Poleg tega dokumenta se za opremo v področju uporabe tega dokumenta uporabljajo tudi drugi evropski standardi, ki določajo tehnične zahteve v zvezi z bistvenimi zahtevami iz drugih delov člena 3 direktive R&TTE [1].

The EN 302 217 series has been produced in order to rationalize a large number of previous ETSI ENs dealing with
equipment and antennas for Point-to-Point (P-P) Fixed Service applications. For more details, see foreword in the
EN 302 217-1 [6].
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 [1]. The modular
structure is described in EG 201 399 [i.24].

1 Scope
1.1 General background
The present document specifies the essential requirements for point-to-point Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS)
operating in frequency division full duplex (FDD) in frequency bands, where co-ordinated link-by-link frequency
planning is applied. It is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [1] 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".
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 [1] will 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.
For the correct understanding and application of the requirements in the present document, the definitions summarized
in EN 302 217-1 [6] are also relevant.
1.2 Spectral efficiency classes
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are here defined. They are based on typical modulation formats and limited by a "minimum Radio Interface
Capacity density" (Mbit/s/MHz) shown in table 0. Radio Interface Capacity (RIC) is defined in EN 302 217-1 [6].
The minimum RIC density figures in table 0 are valid only for systems operating on the most common channel
separation (CS) equal or higher than 1,75 MHz and taking into account that for channel separations "about" 14 MHz
(i.e. from 13,75 MHz to 15,0 MHz), "about" 28 MHz (i.e. from 27,5 MHz to 30 MHz), "about" 56 MHz (i.e. from
55 MHz to 60 MHz) and "about" 112 MHz (i.e. 110 MHz or 112 MHz) the RIC density of actual systems is evaluated
only over the "nominal" 14 MHz, 28 MHz, 56 MHz and 112 MHz channel width.
Minimum RIC figures for some systems operating on 40 MHz channel separation, with RIC density lower than the
minimum requirement in table 0, are defined only in annexes C and Ea. For the special cases of sub-STM-0 capacities
(defined in Recommendation ITU-T G.708 [i.63] in annex D, alternative minimum RIC figures are not defined.

modulation scheme (e.g. 1024QAM)
11 8 7,7 Equipment with spectral efficiency based on typical 2 048-states
modulation scheme (e.g. 2048QAM)
NOTE: When defining the minimum RIC for actual channel separations, for simplicity, it will be rounded to the
suitably closer integer Mbit/s.

All classes up to class 4H, for any CS, and classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and 8, for CS < 27,5 MHz, are intended suitable
for ACCP operation and, in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP. Classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and
8, only for CS ≥ 27,5 MHz, are further subdivided in two sub-classes:
• subClass A: classes 5LA, 5HA, 6LA, 6HA, 7A and 8A are intended suitable, on the same route, for cross-polar
adjacent channel (ACAP) operation only (see figure 2a).
• subClass B: classes 5LB, 5HB, 6LB, 6HB, 7B and 8B are suitable, on the same route, for ACCP operation and,
in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP (see figure 2a).
The above classes are for system identification only and will not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements of the selected class in the relevant parts of EN 302 217 series are met.
1.3 System alternatives
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 302 217-4-2 [8], 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 or Recommendation ITU-R);
• spectral efficiency class alternatives (different modulation formats provided in radio equipment standards) as
defined in clause 1.2; actual equipment may operate within one spectral efficiency class only
(Single-mode) or within multiple classes, either with static pre-selection of the class (Preset-mode) or with
dynamic variation of capacity according the propagation conditions (Mixed-mode) (see note);
• antenna directivity class alternatives (for different network requirements).
NOTE: Single- mode, Preset-mode and Mixed-mode systems are defined in clause 3.1 of EN 302 217-1 [6];
additional information on Mixed-mode systems may be found in annex I of the present document and in
TR 103 103 [i.35].

1.4 Channel arrangements and utilization
Systems in the scope of the present document are intended to operate only in full frequency division duplex (FDD).
Time division duplex (TDD) applications are not in the scope of the present document.
Unidirectional systems are assumed to be an underequipped FDD system.
From the point of view of the transmission capacity, these systems are defined, in the relevant annexes, on the basis of
their minimum Channel Separation (CS) on the same route, for a given spectral efficiency class, taken into account by
the system design. The possible channel arrangements may be:
• Adjacent Channel Alternate-Polarized (ACAP);
• Adjacent Channel Co-Polarized (ACCP);
• Co-Channel Dual-Polarization (CCDP).
These possible applications and their channel arrangements are shown in figure 2a.

1.5 Payload flexibility
For quick identification of the system, the capacities in tables X.2 (where X = A, B, C, D, E, Ea represents the relevant
annex) are the minimum transmitted RIC required for conformance to the present document; they are based on the
"minimum RIC density" defined in clause 1.2. Only some cases of systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel
separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with typical gross bit rate rather than minimum RIC capacity rates.
However, equipment may offer a variety of base band interfaces, e.g. typical hierarchical rates PDH or SDH, ISDN,
Ethernet as well as mixture of these or other standardized interfaces. Mapping/multiplexing of the various base-band

frames or other proprietary methods.
NOTE: Information on applicable base-band interfaces can be found in EN 302 217-1 [6].
Tables F.1a through F.1g in annex F summarize the "minimum RIC" considered in the present document and, when
only PDH or SDH interfaces are provided, give the equivalent capacity in term of number of 2,048 Mbit/s streams
provided as multiple or single multiplexed PDH or SDH interfaces. These minimum capacities will be associated to the
relevant channel separation and spectral efficiency classes defined.
Equipment may operate with one single RIC payload rate or with multiple RIC payload rates (multirate systems), either
statically preset (possibly coupled also with preset-mode operation) or, when coupled with mixed-mode operation,
dynamically changing according to the modulation format.
The requirements of the present document apply separately to each transmitter/receiver or single transmitters or
receivers used for combining complex or simple (e.g. space diversity receivers or single transmitters and receivers used
for unidirectional links) fixed radio systems. Systems carrying N × STM-1 (N = 1,2) capacity might actually be
aggregated for carrying STM-4 in more than one radio frequency channel, pr

Introduction
The EN 302 217 series has been produced in order to rationalize a large number of previous ETSI ENs dealing with
equipment and antennas for Point-to-Point (P-P) Fixed Service applications. For more details, see foreword in the
EN 302 217-1 [6].
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 [1]. The modular
structure is described in EG 201 399 [i.24].

1 Scope
1.1 General background
The present document specifies the essential requirements for point-to-point Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS)
operating in frequency division full duplex (FDD) in frequency bands, where co-ordinated link-by-link frequency
planning is applied. It is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [1] 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".
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 [1] will 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.
For the correct understanding and application of the requirements in the present document, the definitions summarized
in EN 302 217-1 [6] are also relevant.
1.2 Spectral efficiency classes
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are here defined. They are based on typical modulation formats and limited by a "minimum Radio Interface
Capacity density" (Mbit/s/MHz) shown in table 0. Radio Interface Capacity (RIC) is defined in EN 302 217-1 [6].
The minimum RIC density figures in table 0 are valid only for systems operating on the most common channel
separation (CS) equal or higher than 1,75 MHz and taking into account that for channel separations "about" 14 MHz
(i.e. from 13,75 MHz to 15,0 MHz), "about" 28 MHz (i.e. from 27,5 MHz to 30 MHz), "about" 56 MHz (i.e. from
55 MHz to 60 MHz) and "about" 112 MHz (i.e. 110 MHz or 112 MHz) the RIC density of actual systems is evaluated
only over the "nominal" 14 MHz, 28 MHz, 56 MHz and 112 MHz channel width.
Minimum RIC figures for some systems operating on 40 MHz channel separation, with RIC density lower than the
minimum requirement in table 0, are defined only in annexes C and Ea. For the special cases of sub-STM-0 capacities
(defined in Recommendation ITU-T G.708 [i.63], annex D), alternative minimum RIC figures are not defined.

modulation scheme (e.g. 1024QAM)
11 8 7,7 Equipment with spectral efficiency based on typical 2 048-states
modulation scheme (e.g. 2048QAM)
NOTE: When defining the minimum RIC for actual channel separations, for simplicity, it will be rounded to the
suitably closer integer Mbit/s.

All classes up to class 4H, for any CS, and classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and 8, for CS < 27,5 MHz, are intended suitable
for ACCP operation and, in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP. Classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and
8, only for CS ≥ 27,5 MHz, are further subdivided in two sub-classes:
• subClass A: classes 5LA, 5HA, 6LA, 6HA, 7A and 8A are intended suitable, on the same route, for cross-polar
adjacent channel (ACAP) operation only (see figure 2a).
• subClass B: classes 5LB, 5HB, 6LB, 6HB, 7B and 8B are suitable, on the same route, for ACCP operation and,
in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP (see figure 2a).
The above classes are for system identification only and will not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements of the selected class in the relevant parts of EN 302 217 series are met.
1.3 System alternatives
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 302 217-4-2 [8], 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 or Recommendation ITU-R);
• spectral efficiency class alternatives (different modulation formats provided in radio equipment standards) as
defined in clause 1.2; actual equipment may operate within one spectral efficiency class only
(Single-mode) or within multiple classes, either with static pre-selection of the class (Preset-mode) or with
dynamic variation of capacity according the propagation conditions (Mixed-mode) (see note);
• antenna directivity class alternatives (for different network requirements).
NOTE: Single- mode, Preset-mode and Mixed-mode systems are defined in clause 3.1 of EN 302 217-1 [6];
additional information on Mixed-mode systems may be found in annex I of the present document and in
TR 103 103 [i.35].

1.4 Channel arrangements and utilization
Systems in the scope of the present document are intended to operate only in full frequency division duplex (FDD).
Time division duplex (TDD) applications are not in the scope of the present document.
Unidirectional systems are assumed to be an underequipped FDD system.
From the point of view of the transmission capacity, these systems are defined, in the relevant annexes, on the basis of
their minimum Channel Separation (CS) on the same route, for a given spectral efficiency class, taken into account by
the system design. The possible channel arrangements may be:
• Adjacent Channel Alternate-Polarized (ACAP);
• Adjacent Channel Co-Polarized (ACCP);
• Co-Channel Dual-Polarization (CCDP).
These possible applications and their channel arrangements are shown in figure 2a.

1.5 Payload flexibility
For quick identification of the system, the capacities in tables X.2 (where X = A, B, C, D, E, Ea represents the relevant
annex) are the minimum transmitted RIC required for conformance to the present document; they are based on the
"minimum RIC density" defined in clause 1.2. Only some cases of systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel
separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with typical gross bit rate rather than minimum RIC capacity rates.
However, equipment may offer a variety of base band interfaces, e.g. typical hierarchical rates PDH or SDH, ISDN,
Ethernet as well as mixture of these or other standardized interfaces. Mapping/multiplexing of the various base-band
interfaces into common frame(s) suitable for radio transmission may be done using standardized higher hierarchical
frames or other proprietary methods.
NOTE: Information on applicable base-band interfaces can be found in EN 302 217-1 [6].
Tables F.1a through F.1g in annex F summarize the "minimum RIC" considered in the present document and, when
only PDH or SDH interfaces are provided, give the equivalent capacity in term of number of 2,048 Mbit/s streams
provided as multiple or single multiplexed PDH or SDH interfaces. These minimum capacities will be associated to the
relevant channel separation and spectral efficiency classes defined.
Equipment may operate with one single RIC payload rate or with multiple RIC payload rates (multirate systems), either
statically preset (possibly coupled also with preset-mode operation) or, when coupled with mixed-mode operation,
dynamically changing according to the modulation format.
The requirements of the present document apply separately to each transmitter/receiver or single transmitters or
receivers used for combining complex or simple (e.g. space diversity receivers or single transmitters and receivers used
for unidirectional links) fixed radio systems. Systems carrying N × STM-1 (N =

Introduction The EN 302 217 series has been produced in order to rationalize a large number of previous ETSI ENs dealing with equipment and antennas for Point-to-Point (P-P) Fixed Service applications. For more details, see foreword in the EN 302 217-1 [6]. 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 [1]. The modular structure is described in EG 201 399 [i.24]. Figure 1: Void SIST EN 302 217-2-2 V2.2.1:2014

ETSI ETSI EN 302 217-2-2 V2.2.1 (2014-04)8 1 Scope 1.1 General background The present document specifies the essential requirements for point-to-point Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) operating in frequency division full duplex (FDD) in frequency bands, where co-ordinated link-by-link frequency planning is applied. It is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [1] 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". 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 [1] will 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. For the correct understanding and application of the requirements in the present document, the definitions summarized in EN 302 217-1 [6] are also relevant. 1.2 Spectral efficiency classes As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment classes are here defined. They are based on typical modulation formats and limited by a "minimum Radio Interface Capacity density" (Mbit/s/MHz) shown in table 0. Radio Interface Capacity (RIC) is defined in EN 302 217-1 [6]. The minimum RIC density figures in table 0 are valid only for systems operating on the most common channel separation (CS) equal or higher than 1,75 MHz and taking into account that for channel separations "about" 14 MHz (i.e. from 13,75 MHz to 15,0 MHz), "about" 28 MHz (i.e. from 27,5 MHz to 30 MHz), "about" 56 MHz (i.e. from 55 MHz to 60 MHz) and "about" 112 MHz (i.e. 110 MHz or 112 MHz) the RIC density of actual systems is evaluated only over the "nominal" 14 MHz, 28 MHz, 56 MHz and 112 MHz channel width. Minimum RIC figures for some systems operating on 40 MHz channel separation, with RIC density lower than the minimum requirement in table 0, are defined only in annexes C and Ea. For the special cases of sub-STM-0 capacities (defined in Recommendation ITU-T G.708 [i.63], annex D), alternative minimum RIC figures are not defined. SIST EN 302 217-2-2 V2.2.1:2014

All classes up to class 4H, for any CS, and classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and 8, for CS < 27,5 MHz, are intended suitable for ACCP operation and, in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP. Classes 5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, 7 and 8, only for CS ≥ 27,5 MHz, are further subdivided in two sub-classes: • subClass A: classes 5LA, 5HA, 6LA, 6HA, 7A and 8A are intended suitable, on the same route, for cross-polar adjacent channel (ACAP) operation only (see figure 2a). • subClass B: classes 5LB, 5HB, 6LB, 6HB, 7B and 8B are suitable, on the same route, for ACCP operation and, in principle, whenever appropriate, also expandable to CCDP (see figure 2a). The above classes are for system identification only and will not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format, provided that all the requirements of the selected class in the relevant parts of EN 302 217 series are met. 1.3 System alternatives 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 302 217-4-2 [8], 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 or Recommendation ITU-R); • spectral efficiency class alternatives (different modulation formats provided in radio equipment standards) as defined in clause 1.2; actual equipment may operate within one spectral efficiency class only (Single-mode) or within multiple classes, either with static pre-selection of the class (Preset-mode) or with dynamic variation of capacity according the propagation conditions (Mixed-mode) (see note); • antenna directivity class alternatives (for different network requirements). NOTE: Single- mode, Preset-mode and Mixed-mode systems are defined in clause 3.1 of EN 302 217-1 [6]; additional information on Mixed-mode systems may be found in annex I of the present document and in TR 103 103 [i.35].

ETSI ETSI EN 302 217-2-2 V2.2.1 (2014-04)10 1.4 Channel arrangements and utilization Systems in the scope of the present document are intended to operate only in full frequency division duplex (FDD). Time division duplex (TDD) applications are not in the scope of the present document. Unidirectional systems are assumed to be an underequipped FDD system. From the point of view of the transmission capacity, these systems are defined, in the relevant annexes, on the basis of their minimum Channel Separation (CS) on the same route, for a given spectral efficiency class, taken into account by the system design. The possible channel arrangements may be: • Adjacent Channel Alternate-Polarized (ACAP); • Adjacent Channel Co-Polarized (ACCP); • Co-Channel Dual-Polarization (CCDP). These possible applications and their channel arrangements are shown in figure 2a. ACCPV or HCCDPVHACAPVH Figure 2a: Examples of channel arrangements on the same route 1.5 Payload flexibility For quick identification of the system, the capacities in tables X.2 (where X = A, B, C, D, E, Ea represents the relevant annex) are the minimum transmitted RIC required for conformance to the present document; they are based on the "minimum RIC density" defined in clause 1.2. Only some cases of systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with typical gross bit rate rather than minimum RIC capacity rates. However, equipment may offer a variety of base band interfaces, e.g. typical hierarchical rates PDH or SDH, ISDN, Ethernet as well as mixture of these or other standardized interfaces. Mapping/multiplexing of the various base-band interfaces into common frame(s) suitable for radio transmission may be done using standardized higher hierarchical frames or other proprietary methods. NOTE: Information on applicable base-band interfaces can be found in EN 302 217-1 [6]. Tables F.1a through F.1g in annex F summarize the "minimum RIC" considered in the present document and, when only PDH or SDH interfaces are provided, give the equivalent capacity in term of number of 2,048 Mbit/s streams provided as multiple or single multiplexed PDH or SDH interfaces. These minimum capacities will be associated to the relevant channel separation and spectral efficiency classes defined. Equipment may operate with one single RIC payload rate or with multiple RIC payload rates (multirate systems), either statically preset (possibly coupled also with preset-mode operation) or, when coupled with mixed-mode operation, dynamically changing according to the modulation format. The requirements of the present document apply separately to each transmitter/receiver or single transmitters or receivers used for combining complex or simple (e.g. space diversity receivers or single transmitters and receivers used
