Introduction
The product family of Short Range Devices covers a wide range of equipment types, which may have different sets of
performance criteria set out in the relevant radio standards and/or product standards.
The present document is intended for all SRD types and applies a standard set of performance criteria. This includes the
requirement that the equipment continues to operate as intended under certain standardized conditions of EMC stress.
The term "Short Range Device" (SRD) is intended to cover the radio equipment which provides either uni-directional or
bi-directional communication and which have low capability of causing interference to other radio equipment. SRDs
use either integral, dedicated or external antennas and all modes of modulation can be permitted subject to relevant
standards. For Short Range Devices individual licenses are normally not required.

Radio Frequency Covers tag/interrogator based radio communications systems, consisting of:
IDentification (RFID) devices i) radio devices (tags) attached to animate or inanimate items; and
ii) transmitter/receiver units (interrogators) which activate the tags and receive
data back.
Typical applications include the tracking and identification of items, for instance for
the purpose of Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS), and collecting and transmitting
data relating to the items to which tags are attached, which may be either
battery-less, battery assisted or battery powered. The responses from a tag are
validated by its interrogator and passed to its host system.
Transport and traffic Covers radio devices that are used in the fields of transport (road, rail, water or air,
telematics devices depending on the relevant technical restrictions), traffic management, navigation,
mobility management and in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Typical applications
include interfaces between different modes of transport, communication between

Introduction
The product family of Short Range Devices covers a wide range of equipment types, which may have different sets of
performance criteria set out in the relevant radio standards and/or product standards.
The present document is intended for all SRD types and applies a standard set of performance criteria. This includes the
requirement that the equipment continues to operate as intended under certain standardised conditions of EMC stress.
The term "Short Range Device" (SRD) is intended to cover the radio equipment which provides either uni-directional or
bi-directional communication and which have low capability of causing interference to other radio equipment. SRDs
use either integral, dedicated or external antennas and all modes of modulation can be permitted subject to relevant
standards. For Short Range Devices individual licenses are normally not required.

Introduction
The product family of Short Range Devices covers a wide range of equipment types, which may have different sets of
performance criteria set out in the relevant radio standards and/or product standards.
The present document is intended for all SRD types and applies a standard set of performance criteria. This includes the
requirement that the equipment continues to operate as intended under certain standardized conditions of EMC stress.
The term "Short Range Device" (SRD) is intended to cover the radio equipment which provides either uni-directional or
bi-directional communication and which have low capability of causing interference to other radio equipment. SRDs
use either integral, dedicated or external antennas and all modes of modulation can be permitted subject to relevant
standards. For Short Range Devices individual licenses are normally not required.
