ETSI EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1 (2008-09) - Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Land Mobile Service; Radio equipment with an internal or external RF connector intended primarily for analogue speech; Part 1: Technical characteristics and methods of measurement
SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 is an ETSI European Standard for electromagnetic compatibility and radio spectrum matters for land mobile service radio equipment with an internal or external RF connector intended primarily for analogue speech. It specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurement for Private Mobile Radio (PMR) transmitters and receivers operating from 30 MHz to 1 GHz with 12,5 kHz, 20 kHz or 25 kHz channel separations. Manufacturers, test laboratories and conformity assessors use it to check base stations, mobile stations and certain hand portable stations against the same measurement terms and test arrangements.
What does SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 specify?
SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 specifies how to measure the technical characteristics of PMR radio transmitters and receivers used in the land mobile service for analogue speech. It also sets out the equipment types covered, the test conditions, and the structure of the measurement methods.
The document is organized into:
- Clause 1 Scope
- Clause 2 References
- Clause 3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
- Clause 4 General
- Clause 5 Test conditions, power sources and ambient temperatures
- Clause 6 General test conditions
- Clauses 7 to 9 Transmitter, receiver and duplex operation
- Clause 10 Measurement uncertainty
- Annexes A to C
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | Radiated measurement, including test sites and coupling of signals |
| Annex B | Specification for particular measurement arrangements |
| Annex C | Bibliography |
The scope includes base stations, mobile stations and hand portable stations with an antenna connector or with an internal or temporary internal 50 Ω RF connector. Hand portable equipment without any external or internal RF connector and without the possibility of a temporary internal 50 Ω RF connector is outside the document’s scope.
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008?
The key requirements are the test conditions and measurement methods used to check transmitter, receiver and duplex performance. In practice, the standard tells a lab what to connect, what signal to apply, how to measure, and what performance aspect each test is proving.
General and test setup requirements
Clause 4 requires each equipment item to meet the document across all intended operating frequencies. The provider or manufacturer has to declare the frequency ranges, operating conditions and power requirements, and supply enough technical documentation and operating instructions to run the tests. That matters because the lab needs the correct operating mode, voltage and tuning range before any result can be trusted.
Clause 4.3 requires visible, legible, tamperproof and durable marking in line with applicable EC Directives and/or CEPT decisions or recommendations. For a buyer or quality manager, this is the traceability point that ties the tested product to the approved version.
Test conditions, power sources and temperature
Clause 5 requires both normal and extreme test conditions where specified. The test power source replaces the equipment’s own source, and its voltage is measured at the equipment terminals, which keeps the measurement close to real operating conditions.
For battery-powered equipment, the battery is removed and the test source is connected as close to the battery terminals as possible. Clause 5 also sets a tight voltage tolerance during DC tests because power measurements are sensitive to supply drift. Extreme-temperature testing requires thermal balance before measurements, with special handling for continuous or intermittent transmission equipment.
General receiver and transmitter test conditions
Clause 6 fixes the basic test arrangement. Receiver tests use a 50 Ω source impedance, normal test modulation at 1 kHz, and a deviation of 60 % of the maximum permissible frequency deviation. Receiver mute or squelch is made inoperative, and an artificial antenna is used as a non-radiating 50 Ω load.
For transmitter tests, the audio-frequency modulation signal is applied to the microphone input with the internal microphone disconnected unless otherwise stated. Clause 6.7 says measurements on equipment with a duplex filter are made using the antenna connector of that filter, so the filter is part of the tested path.
Transmitter characteristics
Clause 7 covers frequency error, conducted transmitter power, maximum effective radiated power, frequency deviation, adjacent and alternate channel power, unwanted emissions in the spurious domain, and intermodulation attenuation. These are the core checks that show whether the transmitter stays on frequency, stays within power limits, and does not produce excessive nearby or out-of-band energy.
The adjacent and alternate channel power method in clause 7.5 uses channel displacement and receiver response points to quantify energy close to the wanted channel. Clause 7.6 measures spurious emissions by power level and by effective radiated power, with reference bandwidths given in tables for different frequency ranges. Clause 7.7 uses a 10 dB attenuator, a directional coupler and a spectrum analyser to measure intermodulation attenuation against an interfering signal placed above and below the transmitter frequency.
Receiver characteristics and duplex operation
Clause 8 covers maximum usable sensitivity, co-channel rejection, adjacent channel selectivity, spurious response rejection, intermodulation response rejection, blocking or desensitization, and spurious radiations. These tests show how well the receiver can recover the wanted signal while rejecting nearby channels, images and strong interferers.
Clause 8.2 gives field-strength sensitivity limits by frequency band, which is useful when the receiver is tested radiated rather than conducted. Clause 9 extends the checking to duplex operation, including receiver desensitization and spurious response rejection while transmitting and receiving at the same time.
Measurement uncertainty
Clause 10 requires the test report to include measurement uncertainty for each parameter and says the measured value is compared with the limit value when deciding pass or fail. That is important in conformity assessment because it makes the uncertainty part of the recorded evidence, not an afterthought.
What terms does SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 define?
- 50 Ω - a 50 ohm non-reactive impedance used as the standard test connection.
- Adjacent channel - the channel offset from the wanted channel by one channel spacing.
- Alternate channels - the channels offset from the wanted channel by two channel spacings.
- Base station - equipment with an antenna connector for use with an external antenna in a fixed location.
- Hand portable station - equipment normally carried on a person or held in the hand, with or without an integral antenna.
- Listen Before Transmit mode (LBT) - a monitoring mode that checks a channel before transmission and stops transmitting if activity is detected.
- SINAD - signal quality based on (Signal + Noise + Distortion)/(Noise + Distortion), used in receiver and audio measurements.
- Equipment Under Test (EUT) - the sample being measured during the test.
Who uses SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008?
Manufacturers of PMR radio equipment use SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 when designing transmitters, receivers and antenna interfaces for type testing. Test laboratories use it to set up conducted and radiated measurements, select the correct test site, and document uncertainty. Quality managers, buyers and conformity assessors use it to check whether a product family fits the intended analogue-speech PMR use and what performance data must be available for a test report.
What changed in SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 from the previous edition?
SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 updates the wording, updates the references, and harmonizes the text with recent revisions of EN 300 113 and EN 301 166. The history in the document shows that it follows the earlier V1.2.1 publication.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008?
The normative references are ETSI TR 100 028, which supports the calculation of measurement uncertainty, and ITU-T Recommendation O.41, which supports psophometer use on telephone-type circuits. The document also points to ETSI EN 300 296 for integral-antenna equipment, ETSI EN 300 793 for presentation of equipment for type testing, ETSI TR 102 273 for radiated measurement methods and uncertainty, ANSI C63.5 for antenna calibration, IEC 60489-3 for receiver measurement methods, and CEPT/ERC/REC 74-01E for unwanted emissions in the spurious domain. The foreword also identifies Part 2 of the same series as the harmonized EN covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive.
What does the SIST EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1:2008 document contain?
The document contains the definitions, test conditions, measurement methods and limit tables needed to evaluate analogue-speech PMR radio equipment. It includes detailed procedures for conducted and radiated transmitter measurements, receiver sensitivity and selectivity tests, duplex-operation checks, and uncertainty reporting.
Annex A gives the radiated measurement setups, including anechoic chamber, chamber with conductive ground plane, and Open Area Test Site (OATS) arrangements. It also explains antenna use, EUT preparation, and acoustic coupling for speech and analogue tests.
Annex B specifies some measurement arrangements in more detail, including the power measuring receiver, spectrum analyser use, and integrating and power summing devices. Those arrangements support the adjacent-channel, alternate-channel and spurious-emission measurements used in type testing and compliance work.

4.1 Selection of equipment for testing purposes
Each equipment to be tested shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is
intended to operate.
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power
requirements as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
Additionally, technical documentation and operating manuals, sufficient to make the test, shall be supplied.
Guidance on the presentation of equipment is also given in EN 300 793 [1].
4.1.1 Choice of model for testing
The provider or manufacturer shall provide one or more samples of the equipment, as appropriate for testing.
Stand-alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests need only to be
performed on the equipment configured with the combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have a internal permanent 50 Ω connector then it is
permissible to supply a second sample of the equipment with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
The performance of the equipment to be tested shall be representative of the performance of the corresponding
production model.
4.1.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary auxiliary test equipment, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the
equipment to be tested.
ETSI
11 Draft ETSI EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1 (2007-12)
4.1.1.2 Declarations by the provider
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the necessary information of the equipment with respect to all technical
requirements set by the present document.
4.2 Mechanical and electrical design
4.2.1 General
The equipment shall be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and with
the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.2.2 Controls
Those controls, which if maladjusted, might increase the interfering potentialities of the equipment shall not be
accessible for adjustment by the user.
4.2.3 Transmitter shut-off facility
When a timer for an automatic shut-off facility is operative, at the moment of the time-out the transmitter shall
automatically be switched off (the re-activation of the transmitter shall reset the timer).
A shut-off facility shall be inoperative for the duration of the measurements unless it has to remain operative to protect
the equipment. If the shut-off facility is left operative the status of the equipment shall be indicated.
4.3 Marking
The equipment shall be marked in a visible place. This marking shall be legible, tamperproof and durable.
The marking shall be in accordance with EC Directives and/or CEPT decisions or recommendations as appropriate.
5 Test conditions, power sources and ambient
temperatures
5.1 Normal and extreme test conditions
Testing shall be performed under normal test conditions, and also, where stated, under extreme test conditions.
The test conditions and procedures shall be as specified in clauses 5.2 to 5.5.
5.2 Test power source
During testing the power source of the equipment shall be replaced by a test power source capable of producing normal and
extreme test voltages as specified in clauses 5.3.2 and 5.4.2. The internal impedance of the test power source shall be low
enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of tests, the voltage of the power source shall be
measured at the input terminals of the equipment.
For battery operated equipment the battery shall be removed and the test power source shall be applied as close to the
battery terminals as practicable.
During tests of DC powered equipment the power source voltages shall be maintained within a tolerance of < ±1 %
relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test. The value of this tolerance is critical for power measurements.
Using a smaller tolerance will provide better measurement uncertainty values.

4.1 Selection of equipment for testing purposes
Each equipment to be tested shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is
intended to operate.
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power
requirements as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
Additionally, technical documentation and operating manuals, sufficient to make the test, shall be supplied.
Guidance on the presentation of equipment is also given in EN 300 793 [i.2].
4.1.1 Choice of model for testing
The provider or manufacturer shall provide one or more samples of the equipment, as appropriate for testing.
Stand-alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests need only to be
performed on the equipment configured with the combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have a internal permanent 50 Ω connector then it is
permissible to supply a second sample of the equipment with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
ETSI
11 Final draft ETSI EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1 (2008-07)
The performance of the equipment to be tested shall be representative of the performance of the corresponding
production model.
4.1.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary auxiliary test equipment, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the
equipment to be tested.
4.1.1.2 Declarations by the provider
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the necessary information of the equipment with respect to all technical
requirements set by the present document.
4.2 Mechanical and electrical design
4.2.1 General
The equipment shall be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and with
the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.2.2 Controls
Those controls, which if maladjusted, might increase the interfering potentialities of the equipment shall not be
accessible for adjustment by the user.
4.2.3 Transmitter shut-off facility
When a timer for an automatic shut-off facility is operative, at the moment of the time-out the transmitter shall
automatically be switched off (the re-activation of the transmitter shall reset the timer).
A shut-off facility shall be inoperative for the duration of the measurements unless it has to remain operative to protect
the equipment. If the shut-off facility is left operative the status of the equipment shall be indicated.
4.3 Marking
The equipment shall be marked in a visible place. This marking shall be legible, tamperproof and durable.
The marking shall be in accordance with EC Directives and/or CEPT decisions or recommendations as appropriate.

ETSI
12 Final draft ETSI EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1 (2008-07)
5.2 Test power source
During testing the power source of the equipment shall be replaced by a test power source capable of producing normal
and extreme test voltages as specified in clauses 5.3.2 and 5.4.2. The internal impedance of the test power source shall
be low enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of tests, the voltage of the power source
shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment.
For battery operated equipment the battery shall be removed and the test power source shall be applied as close to the
battery terminals as practicable.
During tests of DC powered equipment the power source voltages shall be maintained within a tolerance of < ±1 %
relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test. The value of this tolerance is critical for power measurements.
Using a smaller tolerance will provide better measurement uncertainty values.
5.3 Normal test conditions

The normal temperature and humidity conditions for tests shall be any convenient combination of temperature and
humidity within the following ranges:
• temperature: +15 °C to +35 °C;
• relative humidity: 20 % to 75 %.
When it is impracticable to carry out the tests under these conditions, a note to this effect, stating the ambient
temperature and relative humidity during the tests, shall be added to the test report.
5.3.2 Normal test power source
5.3.2.1 Mains voltage
The normal test voltage for equipment to be connected to the mains shall be the nominal mains voltage. For the purpose
of the present document, the nominal voltage shall be the declared voltage or any of the declared voltages for which the
equipment was designed.
The frequency of the test power source corresponding to the ac mains shall be between 49 Hz and 51 Hz.
5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources used on vehicles
When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source
used on vehicles the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 times the nominal voltage of the battery (for nominal voltages of

and extreme test voltages as specified in clauses 5.3.2 and 5.4.2. The internal impedance of the test power source shall
be low enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of tests, the voltage of the power source
shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment.
For battery operated equipment the battery shall be removed and the test power source shall be applied as close to the
battery terminals as practicable.
During tests of DC powered equipment the power source voltages shall be maintained within a tolerance of < ±1 %
relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test. The value of this tolerance is critical for power measurements.
Using a smaller tolerance will provide better measurement uncertainty values.
5.3 Normal test conditions
5.3.1 Normal temperature and humidity
The normal temperature and humidity conditions for tests shall be any convenient combination of temperature and
humidity within the following ranges:
• temperature: +15 °C to +35 °C;
• relative humidity: 20 % to 75 %.
When it is impracticable to carry out the tests under these conditions, a note to this effect, stating the ambient
temperature and relative humidity during the tests, shall be added to the test report.

5.3.2 Normal test power source
5.3.2.1 Mains voltage
The normal test voltage for equipment to be connected to the mains shall be the nominal mains voltage. For the purpose
of the present document, the nominal voltage shall be the declared voltage or any of the declared voltages for which the
equipment was designed.
The frequency of the test power source corresponding to the ac mains shall be between 49 Hz and 51 Hz.
5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources used on vehicles
When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source
used on vehicles the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 times the nominal voltage of the battery (for nominal voltages of
6 V and 12 V, these are 6,6 V and 13,2 V respectively).
5.3.2.3 Other power sources
For operation from other power sources or types of battery (primary or secondary), the normal test voltage shall be that
declared by the equipment manufacturer.
5.4 Extreme test conditions
5.4.1 Extreme temperatures
For tests at extreme temperatures, measurements shall be made in accordance with the procedures specified in
clause 5.5, at the upper and lower temperatures of one of the following two ranges:
• -20 °C to +55 °C;
All mobile and handportable equipment.
Base stations for outdoor/uncontrolled climate conditions.

4 General
4.1 Selection of equipment for testing purposes
Each equipment to be tested shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is
intended to operate.
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power
requirements as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
Additionally, technical documentation and operating manuals, sufficient to make the test, shall be supplied.
Guidance on the presentation of equipment is also given in EN 300 793 [i.2].
4.1.1 Choice of model for testing
The provider or manufacturer shall provide one or more samples of the equipment, as appropriate for testing.
Stand-alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests need only to be
performed on the equipment configured with the combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have a internal permanent 50 Ω connector then it is
permissible to supply a second sample of the equipment with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
The performance of the equipment to be tested shall be representative of the performance of the corresponding
production model.
4.1.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary auxiliary test equipment, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the
equipment to be tested.
4.1.1.2 Declarations by the provider
The provider or manufacturer shall declare the necessary information of the equipment with respect to all technical
requirements set by the present document.
4.2 Mechanical and electrical design
4.2.1 General
The equipment shall be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and with
the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.2.2 Controls
Those controls, which if maladjusted, might increase the interfering potentialities of the equipment shall not be
accessible for adjustment by the user.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 300 086-1 V1.3.1 (2008-09)
4.2.3 Transmitter shut-off facility
When a timer for an automatic shut-off facility is operative, at the moment of the time-out the transmitter shall
automatically be switched off (the re-activation of the transmitter shall reset the timer).
A shut-off facility shall be inoperative for the duration of the measurements unless it has to remain operative to protect
the equipment. If the shut-off facility is left operative the status of the equipment shall be indicated.
4.3 Marking
The equipment shall be marked in a visible place. This marking shall be legible, tamperproof and durable.
The marking shall be in accordance with EC Directives and/or CEPT decisions or recommendations as appropriate.
5 Test conditions, power sources and ambient
temperatures
5.1 Normal and extreme test conditions
Testing shall be performed under normal test conditions, and also, where stated, under extreme test conditions.
The test conditions and procedures shall be as specified in clauses 5.2 to 5.5.
5.2 Test power source
During testing the power source of the equipment shall be replaced by a test power source capable of producing normal
and extreme test voltages as specified in clauses 5.3.2 and 5.4.2. The internal impedance of the test power source shall
be low enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of tests, the voltage of the power source
shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment.
For battery operated equipment the battery shall be removed and the test power source shall be applied as close to the
battery terminals as practicable.
During tests of DC powered equipment the power source voltages shall be maintained within a tolerance of < ±1 %
relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test. The value of this tolerance is critical for power measurements.
Using a smaller tolerance will provide better measurement uncertainty values.
5.3 Normal test conditions
5.3.1 Normal temperature and humidity
The normal temperature and humidity conditions for tests shall be any convenient combination of temperature and
humidity within the following ranges:
• temperature: +15 °C to +35 °C;
• relative humidity: 20 % to 75 %.
When it is impracticable to carry out the tests under these conditions, a note to this effect,
