SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 302 208-2, a harmonized European standard for RFID equipment in the 865 MHz to 868 MHz band with power levels up to 2 W. It specifies the essential radio-spectrum requirements and the associated test framework for RFID interrogators and tags used together as a system, mainly for manufacturers, test laboratories, and conformity assessment teams working to R&TTE Directive article 3.2.
What does SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 specify?
SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 applies to RFID interrogators and tags operating together as a system in the dense interrogator mode. It covers fixed and portable interrogators, together with batteryless, battery assisted, and battery powered tags.
The document focuses on spectrum use and interference control. Interrogators transmit in four specified 200 kHz channels with a modulated carrier, and tags respond in adjacent channels with a modulated signal. Interrogators may use integral or external antennas.
The structure is straightforward: clause 1 sets the scope, clause 2 lists references, clause 3 gives definitions and abbreviations, clause 4 states the technical requirements, and clause 5 gives the compliance test approach.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | HS Requirements and conformance Test specifications Table (HS-RTT) |
| Annex B | The EN title in the official languages |
| Annex C | Bibliography |
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010?
Transmitter requirements
Clause 4 requires the equipment to meet its declared operational environmental profile. In practice, the supplier has to state the intended environment and prove that the equipment still meets the radio requirements within that range.
For interrogators, clause 4.2 covers frequency error, frequency stability under low voltage conditions for battery-powered interrogators, effective radiated power, transmitter antenna beamwidth, transmitter spectrum mask, transmitter spurious emissions, and transmission times. These are the controls that keep the transmitter in the right channel, limit unwanted radiation, and prevent it from occupying spectrum longer or wider than intended.
Receiver and tag requirements
Clause 4.3 applies to interrogators and requires receiver spurious radiations to stay within the specified limits. In practice, this checks that the receiver part does not create unwanted emissions that could disturb other radio services.
Clause 4.4 applies to tags and covers radiated power and unwanted emissions. This matters because tags often operate at close range and must still remain within the emission limits defined by the standard.
Testing and reporting
Clause 5 requires testing at representative points within the declared environmental profile, including normal and, where stated, extreme conditions. The practical effect is that compliance is not based on one ideal test point only.
Clause 5.2 requires the measured value to be compared with the relevant limit and the measurement uncertainty to be included in the test report. The uncertainty calculation follows ETSI TR 100 028, and the chosen coverage factor must be stated. That gives a traceable test record that others can review.
Clauses 5.3 to 5.5 map the essential test suites for interrogators, receivers, and tags. Annex A then ties each requirement to its test specification and marks whether it is conditional and part of the Essential Radio Test Suite.
What terms does SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 define?
- RFID interrogator - The reader unit that transmits the modulated carrier and communicates with tags.
- Tag - The RFID transponder that responds to the interrogator, including batteryless, battery assisted, and battery powered types.
- Dense interrogator mode - The operating mode used here, where interrogators work in 200 kHz channels with a modulated carrier.
- R&TTE Directive - Directive 1999/5/EC, the legal framework whose article 3.2 is the target of this harmonized EN.
- HS-RTT - The Harmonized Standard Requirements and conformance Test specifications Table in Annex A.
- EN 302 208-1 - Part 1 of the series, which supplies the detailed requirements, definitions, and test methods reused by this part.
- TR 100 028 - ETSI’s document on uncertainty in measurement of mobile radio equipment characteristics.
Who uses SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010?
Manufacturers of RFID interrogators and tags use this standard when designing products for the 865 MHz to 868 MHz band. Test laboratories use it for compliance measurements, and conformity assessment teams use it to check whether a product meets the essential spectrum-related requirements of the R&TTE Directive.
Quality managers and buyers use it to compare equipment on a common technical basis. It is especially relevant when a project needs evidence for radio performance, unwanted emissions, measurement uncertainty, and the test documentation that supports a compliance file.
What changed in SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 from the previous edition?
The foreword says this version includes improvements based on technical developments in the RFID industry. The main change stated is support for multiple interrogators transmitting simultaneously on the same channel.
The foreword also says this improves spectrum efficiency and system performance, and that listen before talk is no longer a requirement.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010?
- ETSI EN 302 208-1 (V1.3.1) - The companion part with the technical requirements and methods of measurement; this part reuses its limits, definitions, symbols, abbreviations, and test procedures.
- ETSI TR 100 028 (V1.4.1) (all parts) - The reference for measuring and reporting uncertainty in the compliance tests.
What does the SIST EN 302 208-2 V1.3.1:2010 document contain?
The document contains the scope, references, definitions, technical requirements, and compliance testing rules for RFID interrogators and tags in the specified UHF band. Clause 4 sets the requirements for transmitters, receivers, and tags, while clause 5 explains how to test them and how to report the results.
It also includes a frequency table for the operating channels, Annex A with the HS-RTT mapping of requirements to test specifications, and Annexes B and C for language titles and bibliography. For engineers and test labs, the practical value is the link between each requirement and the corresponding test method used for design verification and conformity assessment.

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 Public Enquiry phase
of the ETSI standards Two-step Approval Procedure.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [i.3] (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 [i.1] 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 [i.1] are given in annex A.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering Radio Frequency Identification Equipment
operating in the band 865 MHz to 868 MHz with power levels up to 2 W, as identified below:

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 Vote phase of the
ETSI standards Two-step Approval Procedure.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [i.3] (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 [i.1] 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 [i.1] are given in annex A.
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering Radio Frequency Identification Equipment
operating in the band 865 MHz to 868 MHz with power levels up to 2 W, as identified below:
Part 1: "Technical requirements and methods of measurement";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".
The present document includes improvements to the previous version of the standard that take advantage of technical
developments within the RFID industry. In particular this includes the ability for multiple interrogators to transmit
simultaneously on the same channel. This provides significant improvements in spectrum efficiency and system
performance. As a consequence "listen before talk" is no longer a requirement.
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 [i.1]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.2].

1 Scope
The present document applies to RFID interrogators and tags operating together as a system. The interrogators transmit
in four specified channels of 200 kHz each using a modulated carrier. The tags preferably respond with a modulated
signal in the adjacent low power channels. Interrogators may be used with either integral or external antennas.
The present document applies to RFID interrogators used in conjunction with their RFID transponders (tags). The
interrogators operate in the dense interrogator mode in 200 kHz channels using a modulated carrier. The tags respond in
the adjacent channels with a modulated signal. Interrogators may be used with either integral or external antennas.
The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows:
• fixed interrogators;
• portable interrogators;
• batteryless tags;
• battery assisted tags;
• battery powered tags.
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency band as specified below.
Table 1: Frequencies of operation
Equipment Operating frequencies
Interrogator Transmit channel 4 865,6 MHz to 865,8 MHz
Interrogator Transmit channel 7 866,2 MHz to 866,4 MHz
Interrogator Transmit channel 10 866,8 MHz to 867,0 MHz
Interrogator Transmit channel 13 867,4 MHz to 867,6 MHz
Interrogator Receive 865,0 MHz to 868,0 MHz
Tag Transmit 865,0 MHz to 868,0 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 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 [i.1] 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/.
