SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 is the SIST adoption of ETSI EN 300 220-3 V1.1.1, a harmonized European standard for Short Range Devices (SRD). It specifies the radio equipment requirements and compliance tests for transmitters and receivers in the 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz range with power levels up to 500 mW, for article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive. In practice, it tells manufacturers and test laboratories what to measure to show that equipment uses spectrum effectively and avoids harmful interference.
What does SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 specify?
SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 applies to SRD radio transmitters and receivers as described in EN 300 220-1. Its purpose is to identify the requirements from EN 300 220-1 that are needed to meet article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC, which concerns effective use of the spectrum.
The document is organized into six clauses and one informative annex:
- Clause 1: Scope
- Clause 2: References
- Clause 3: Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
- Clause 4: Technical requirements specifications
- Clause 5: Testing for compliance with technical requirements
- Clause 6: Interpretation of measurement results
- Annex A: Links selected receiver clauses to additional essential requirements under article 3.3

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 300 220-3:2001?
SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 focuses on transmitter and receiver limits, then ties them to named test suites and measurement uncertainty rules. The practical result is a clear compliance path: check the right RF parameter, use the corresponding EN 300 220-1 test method, and record uncertainty in the test report.
Transmitter requirements
- Clause 4.1.1 covers frequency error or frequency drift for all transmitters, or adjacent channel power for narrowband equipment that cannot produce an unmodulated carrier. This is the basic check that the carrier stays where it should and does not disturb nearby channels.
- Clause 4.1.2 covers conducted carrier power for transmitters that may be used without an integral or dedicated antenna. This matters when the radio output is measured at a connector.
- Clause 4.1.3 covers effective radiated power for transmitters with an integral or dedicated antenna. This matters when compliance depends on what the antenna actually radiates.
- Clauses 4.1.4 and 4.1.5 cover frequency deviation and modulation depth for voice applications. These keep narrowband FM, phase modulation, and AM within the specified limits.
- Clauses 4.1.6 to 4.1.10 cover adjacent channel power, modulation bandwidth for wideband equipment, spurious emissions, low-voltage frequency stability, and duty cycle. These checks limit unwanted emissions and show that battery operation and on-air use stay within the defined envelope.
Receiver requirements
- Clause 4.2.1 covers spurious radiations for all receivers. This limits unwanted emissions from the receiver itself.
- Clauses 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 cover adjacent channel selectivity in-band and adjacent band selectivity for Class 1 receivers. These parameters show how well a receiver rejects nearby interferers.
- Clause 4.2.4 covers blocking or desensitization for Class 1 and Class 2 receivers. This matters when strong off-channel signals could reduce usable sensitivity.
Testing and reporting
- Clause 5 requires type tests under normal conditions and, where stated, extreme conditions, using the procedures in EN 300 220-1.
- Clause 5 also defines the transmitter and receiver test suites and the sample selection rules used for compliance testing.
- Clause 6 requires the measured value to be compared with the relevant limit, and it requires measurement uncertainty to be stated separately in the test report.
What terms does SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 define?
SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 relies on the definitions in the R&TTE Directive and EN 300 220-1, but these terms are central to reading the requirements:
- Short Range Devices (SRD): radio equipment covered by the 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz family described by EN 300 220-1.
- R&TTE Directive: Directive 1999/5/EC, the legal framework that sets the article 3.2 requirement used here.
- Class 1 receiver: the receiver category used for the selectivity requirements in clauses 4.2.2 and 4.2.3.
- Class 2 receiver: the receiver category that is included in the blocking or desensitization requirement of clause 4.2.4.
- Wide band: equipment with modulation bandwidth above 25 kHz, as defined in EN 300 220-1.
- Narrowband frequency or phase modulation: the voice-modulation case covered by the frequency-deviation requirement.
- Narrowband amplitude modulation: the voice-modulation case covered by the modulation-depth requirement.
Who uses SIST EN 300 220-3:2001?
Manufacturers of SRD transmitters and receivers use this standard to design equipment for the intended radio performance limits. Test laboratories use it to run the specified transmitter and receiver measurements. Compliance engineers, quality managers, and conformity assessment bodies use it to prepare and review technical files and test reports for article 3.2 assessment. It is also useful to buyers and procurement teams who need to specify SRD performance in tender or purchase requirements.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 300 220-3:2001?
- EN 300 220-1 - supplies the technical characteristics, definitions, symbols, abbreviations, and the test methods used throughout this part.
- Directive 1999/5/EC - provides the article 3.2 essential requirement on effective use of the spectrum and harmful interference.
- Council Directive 98/34/EC - is the legal basis mentioned for the standardization mandate context.
- ETR 028 - gives the method for calculating measurement uncertainty.
- CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 - provides the wider SRD usage framework referenced by the document.
What does the SIST EN 300 220-3:2001 document contain?
The document contains transmitter and receiver limit clauses, the matching compliance test suites, and the rule for interpreting test results. It also includes a modular-structure figure that places this part within the R&TTE framework. Table 1a maps receiver performance requirements to the EN 300 220-1 test methods, while Table 2 sets the measurement-uncertainty values to be reported for each parameter. Annex A gives an informative link from certain receiver clauses to additional essential requirements for emergency services and users with disabilities.
