SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 is the Slovenian adoption of Amendment A2 to ETS 300 197, published by SIST. It covers radio relay systems for the transmission of digital signals and analogue video signals operating at 38 GHz, and it updates the ETS so it can support EMC harmonization with ETS 300 385 under Council Directive 89/336/EEC.
What does SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 specify?
SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 is an amendment to ETS 300 197, not a full standalone rewrite. Its role is to adjust the standard for use as part of a Harmonized Standard approach and to support national approval use for radio relay equipment in the fixed service.
The scope links the document to equipment operating between 37 GHz and 39.5 GHz, including digital systems and wide band analogue systems. In practice, that means the document is aimed at manufacturers, test houses, and approval bodies working on fixed-service microwave links in that band.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex B | Technical specifications relevant to compliance with the essential requirements for the EMC Directive, with a table linking subclauses to directive articles |
| Annex C | ERC Decision on approval regulations for equipment used in radio relay systems operating between 37 GHz and 39.5 GHz, based on ETS 300 197 |
What are the key requirements of SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000?
Harmonized-standard role
SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 states that ETS 300 197, together with ETS 300 385, is intended to become a Harmonized Standard referencing Council Directive 89/336/EEC. For readers, this means the amendment is part of the route used to align equipment requirements with EMC-related market access.
EMC-related test items
Annex B identifies the subclauses that matter for compliance with the essential requirements. For digital systems, the relevant topics are transmitter spurious emissions, receiver spurious emissions, and CW spurious interference immunity; for wide band analogue systems, the same three topics appear in the corresponding clause set. In practice, these are the EMC-related measurements a supplier must be ready to test and document.
Digital and analogue system coverage
The standard body distinguishes between digital systems in clause 5 and wide band analogue systems in clause 6. It also ties each system type to channel-spacing options, with the background and annexes showing the options used in approval regulation work. For a buyer or engineer, the key point is to check that the chosen equipment type matches the correct clause set and channel spacing.
Approval-regulation content
Annex C contains an ERC Decision for approval regulations for radio relay systems in the fixed service between 37 GHz and 39.5 GHz. Annex 1 to that Decision lists the parameter groups to be included in approval regulations, such as transmission capacity, baseband parameters, transmitter characteristics, receiver characteristics, and system performance or transmit/receive performance. In practice, these are the items that authorities and conformity assessors can use when building national approval rules.
Spectrum-management parameters
The ERC Decision says approval regulations are to use the limit values and measurement methods in ETS 300 197 for spectrum management parameters, while national licensing requirements can exclude some parameters by national choice. This matters because equipment may still need country-specific checks for frequency of operation and e.i.r.p.
What terms does SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 define?
- Harmonized Standard - A standard intended to be referenced in the Official Journal of the European Communities for EMC-related use.
- EMC Directive - Council Directive 89/336/EEC, the directive named in the amendment.
- e.i.r.p. - Equivalent isotropically radiated power, a radio-planning parameter cited for national licensing and frequency planning.
- BER - Bit error rate, the digital performance measure named in the approval-regulation annex.
- CW - Continuous wave, used in the document in the phrase CW spurious interference.
- fixed service - The radio service category used for the equipment covered by the ERC Decision.
- spurious emissions - Unwanted emissions outside the intended signal, covered for both transmitter and receiver tests.
Who uses SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000?
Manufacturers of radio relay equipment use SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 when designing systems for the 37 GHz to 39.5 GHz band and choosing the right digital or wide band analogue clause set. Test laboratories use it for spurious emission and immunity testing.
National administrations and approval bodies use it when preparing or aligning approval regulations. Operators, buyers, and specifiers use it to compare equipment options by band, channel spacing, environmental class, and approval-related parameters.
What changed in SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 from the previous edition?
This amendment updates the foreword so that ETS 300 197, together with ETS 300 385, is presented as intended for use as a Harmonized Standard under Council Directive 89/336/EEC. It also adds the statement that the EMC-relevant technical specifications are listed in annex B.
The amendment inserts normative Annex B and Annex C. Annex B maps the subclauses relevant to compliance with the essential requirements, and Annex C adds the ERC Decision on approval regulations together with its supporting material.
Which standards are used with SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000?
- ETS 300 385 - Named alongside ETS 300 197 as the companion standard in the harmonized-standard context.
- ETS 300 197 (1994) - The base European Telecommunications Standard that this amendment modifies.
- Council Directive 89/336/EEC - The EMC Directive referenced in the harmonized-standard wording.
- CEPT Recommendation T/R 12-01 - Cited as the basis on which ETS 300 197 was developed.
- CEPT Recommendation T/R 01-05 - Mentioned for transitional arrangements in the ERC Decision memorandum.
What does the SIST ETS 300 197/A2 E1:2000 document contain?
The document contains the amendment instructions, the revised foreword, and two normative annexes. Annex B gives a table linking specific clauses to EMC compliance topics for digital and wide band analogue systems.
Annex C reproduces the ERC Decision ERC/DEC/(96)08 and its explanatory memorandum. It also includes Annex 1 with the parameter groups to be included in approval regulations, plus Annexes 2 and 3 showing national variations adopted for digital and analogue elements.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
1. INTRODUCTION
The free movement of radiocommunications goods and the provision of Europe-wide services for
radiocommunications are only achievable if there exist common regulations throughout Europe regarding availability
of frequency bands, approval requirements and border crossing procedures. A basic requirement to fulfil these
objectives is the Europe-wide implementation of regulations based on the European Telecommunications Standards
(ETSs) developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
This Decision (ERC/DEC/(96)08) provides the necessary mechanism for CEPT Administrations to commit
themselves to implement, within their national regimes, European Telecommunications Standard 300 197 and
withdraw any conflicting national standard.
2. BACKGROUND
Both the ERC and ETSI are involved in the development of common regulations, as described in (1) above. The
Memorandum of Understanding between ERC and ETSI explains the respective responsibilities of the two
organisations and its annex describes the principles of co-operation. The ERC, for its part, should, inter alia, adopt
Decisions on the introduction of ETSI standards into approval regimes.
ETS 300 197 has been prepared by the Transmission and Multiplexing (TM) Technical Committee of ETSI. The
standard has undergone the ETSI standards approval procedure and is now published as an ETS.
The ETS is based on CEPT Recommendation T/R 12-01.
The use of the frequency range (37 to 39.5 GHz ) covered by ETS 300 197 is not harmonised within CEPT.
Administrations have adopted different arrangements, to meet national requirements, for channel separations (3.5, 7,
14, 28, 56 and 140 MHz). Further, the equipment used in this frequency range is subject to national licensing and
frequency planning which requires specification of, inter alia, frequency of operation and equivalent isotropically
radiated power (e.i.r.p.).
Nevertheless, there are a number of parameters, in particular those considered by the ERC as essential for spectrum
management purposes , which can be harmonised by adopting within
