- relative humidity: 20 % to 75 %.
When it is impracticable to carry out tests under these conditions, a note to this effect stating the ambient temperature
and relative humidity during the tests, shall be recorded and stated.
5.3.2 Normal test power source
5.3.2.1 Internal battery power source
The normal test voltage for equipment shall be a regulated battery power source. 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.
When the radio equipment is intended for operation with the usual types of regulated battery power source, the normal
test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (e.g. 6 V, 12 V, etc.).
5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources
When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source,
the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (6 V, 12 V, etc.).
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 the
one declared by the equipment provider. Such values shall be recorded and stated.
6 General conditions
6.1 Radiated measurement arrangements
For guidance on radiation test sites and general arrangements for radiated measurements, see annex A.
Detailed descriptions of radiated measurement arrangements for UWB devices can be found in ITU-R
Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1].
All reasonable efforts should be made to clearly demonstrate that emissions from the UWB transmitter do not exceed
the specified levels, with the transmitter in the far field. To the extent practicable, the device under test should be
measured with a measurement setup up as specified in clause 8 and annex A (with the DUT under "far field conditions,
additional Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in front of the measurement receiver and with the specified measurement
bandwidths. However, in order to obtain an adequate signal-to-noise ratio in the measurement system, radiated
measurements may have to be made at distances less than those specified annex A and/or with reduced measurement
bandwidths. The revised measurement configuration should be stated on the test report, together with an explanation of
why the signal levels involved necessitated measurement at the distance employed or with the measurement bandwidth
or with a special set up for the LNA (e.g. cooled LNA) used in order to be accurately detected by the measurement
equipment, and calculations demonstrating compliance.
Where it is not practical to further reduce the measurement bandwidth (either because of limitations of
commonly-available test equipment or difficulties in converting readings taken using one measurement bandwidth to
those used by the limits in tables 3 and 5), and the required measurement distance would be so short that the device
would not clearly be within the far field, the test report shall state this fact, the measurement distance and bandwidth
used, the near field/far field distance for the measurement setup (see clause A.2.4), the measured device emissions, the
achievable measurement noise floor and the frequency range(s) involved.
6.2 Modes of operation of the transmitter
For the purpose of the measurements according to the present document, there shall be a facility to operate the
transmitter in a continuous state, whereby the signal with modulation is transmitted repeatedly.
ETSI
15 Draft ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2009-08)
If pulse gating is employed where the transmitter is quiescent for intervals that are long compared to the nominal pulse
repetition interval, measurements shall be made with the pulse train gated on.
6.3 Measuring receiver
The term measuring receiver refers to a spectrum analyser. The reference bandwidth of the measuring receiver as
defined in CISPR 16-1 [1] shall be as given in table 1.
Table 1: Reference bandwidth of measuring receiver
Frequency being measured: f Spectrum analyser bandwidth (3 dB)

1 000 MHz ≤ f
7 Interpretation of results
7.1 Measurement uncertainty
Interpretation of the results recorded in the test report for the measurements described in the present document shall be
as follows:
• the measured value related to the corresponding limit shall be used to decide whether an equipment meets the
requirements of the present document;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be separately included
in the test report;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty shall be wherever possible equal for each measurement, equal to or
lower than the figures in table 2, and the interpretation procedure specified in clause 7.1.1 shall be used.

NOTE: For radiated emissions measurements below 2,2 GHz and above
8 GHz it may not be possible to reduce measurement uncertainty to
the levels specified in table 2 (due to the very low signal level limits
and the consequent requirement for high levels of amplification
across wide bandwidths). In these cases alone it is acceptable to
employ the alternative interpretation procedure specified in
clause 7.1.2.

The present document applies to:
a) UWB object discrimination and characterisation equipment for imaging and object detection applications;
b) equipment fitted with an integral antenna;
c) Two main categories:
1) Category A: user protection in bentchtop tools/table saws (quasi fixed sawing equipment).
2) Category B: breakthrough protection in drilling devices.
The present document does not apply to:
• UWB communication devices; and
• Ground penetrating radar devices; and
• through-wall radar imaging devices;
• building material devices;
as defined in ITU-R Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1] and EN 302 435-1 [i.6].
The present document specifies the equipment which is designed to not radiate into the free space. It is designed to
function only when positioned such that it radiates directly into:
a) free space (for category A equipment); or
b) to the absorptive material such as walls and other building materials which absorb emissions for category B.

power source shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment. The external test power source shall be suitably
de-coupled and applied as close to the equipment battery terminals as practicable. For radiated measurements any
external power leads should be so arranged so as not to affect the measurements.
During tests, the external test power source voltages shall be within a tolerance < ±1 % relative to the voltage at the
beginning of each test.
5.2.2 Internal test power source
For radiated measurements on portable equipment with integral antenna, fully charged internal batteries shall be used.
The batteries used should be as supplied or recommended by the provider. If internal batteries are used, at the end of
each test the voltage shall be within a tolerance of < ±5 % relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test.
If appropriate, the external test power source may replace the supplied or recommended internal batteries at the required
voltage - this shall be recorded and stated. In this case, the battery should remain present, electrically isolated from the
rest of the equipment, possibly by putting tape over its contacts.
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;
ETSI
14 Final draft ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2010-04)
• relative humidity: 20 % to 75 %.
When it is impracticable to carry out tests under these conditions, a note to this effect stating the ambient temperature
and relative humidity during the tests, shall be recorded and stated.
5.3.2 Normal test power source
5.3.2.1 Internal battery power source
The normal test voltage for equipment shall be a regulated battery power source. 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.
When the radio equipment is intended for operation with the usual types of regulated battery power source, the normal
test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (e.g. 6 V, 12 V, etc.).
5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources
When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source,
the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (6 V, 12 V, etc.).
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 the
one declared by the equipment provider. Such values shall be recorded and stated.
6 General conditions
6.1 Radiated measurement arrangements
For guidance on radiation test sites and general arrangements for radiated measurements, see annex A.
Detailed descriptions of radiated measurement arrangements for UWB devices can be found in ITU-R
Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1].
All reasonable efforts should be made to clearly demonstrate that emissions from the UWB transmitter do not exceed
the specified levels, with the transmitter in the far field. To the extent practicable, the device under test should be
measured with a measurement setup up as specified in clause 8 and annex A (with the DUT under "far field conditions,
additional Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in front of the measurement receiver and with the specified measurement
bandwidths. However, in order to obtain an adequate signal-to-noise ratio in the measurement system, radiated
measurements may have to be made at distances less than those specified annex A and/or with reduced measurement
bandwidths. The revised measurement configuration should be stated on the test report, together with an explanation of
why the signal levels involved necessitated measurement at the distance employed or with the measurement bandwidth
or with a special set up for the LNA (e.g. cooled LNA) used in order to be accurately detected by the measurement
equipment, and calculations demonstrating compliance.
Where it is not practical to further reduce the measurement bandwidth (either because of limitations of
commonly-available test equipment or difficulties in converting readings taken using one measurement bandwidth to
those used by the limits in tables 3 and 5), and the required measurement distance would be so short that the device
would not clearly be within the far field, the test report shall state this fact, the measurement distance and bandwidth
used, the near field/far field distance for the measurement setup (see clause A.2.4), the measured device emissions, the
achievable measurement noise floor and the frequency range(s) involved.
6.2 Modes of operation of the transmitter
For the purpose of the measurements according to the present document, there shall be a facility to operate the
transmitter in a continuous state, whereby the signal with modulation is transmitted repeatedly.
ETSI
15 Final draft ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2010-04)
If pulse gating is employed where the transmitter is quiescent for intervals that are long compared to the nominal pulse
repetition interval, measurements shall be made with the pulse train gated on.
6.3 Measuring receiver
The term measuring receiver refers to a spectrum analyser. The reference bandwidth of the measuring receiver as
defined in CISPR 16-1 [1] shall be as given in table 1.
Table 1: Reference bandwidth of measuring receiver
Frequency being measured: f Spectrum analyser bandwidth (3 dB)
30 MHz ≤ f < 1 000 MHz 100 kHz
1 MHz
1 000 MHz ≤ f
7 Interpretation of results
7.1 Measurement uncertainty
Interpretation of the results recorded in the test report for the measurements described in the present document shall be
as follows:
• the measured value related to the corresponding limit shall be used to decide whether an equipment meets the
requirements of the present document;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be separately included
in the test report;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty shall be wherever possible equal for each measurement, equal to or
lower than the figures in table 2, and the interpretation procedure specified in clause 7.1.1 shall be used.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the requirements for Object Discrimination and Characterization Applications (ODC)
for power tool devices using UWB technology operating in all or part of the frequency band from 2,2 GHz to 8,5 GHz.
Additionally, it specifies reduced emissions in the ranges from 0,96 GHz to 2,2 GHz and 8,5 GHz to 10,6 GHz.
The present document applies to:
a) UWB object discrimination and characterisation equipment for imaging and object detection applications;
b) equipment fitted with an integral antenna;
c) Two main categories:
1) Category A: user protection in bentchtop tools/table saws (quasi fixed sawing equipment).
2) Category B: breakthrough protection in drilling devices.
The present document does not apply to:
• UWB communication devices; and
• Ground penetrating radar devices; and
• through-wall radar imaging devices;
• building material devices;
as defined in ITU-R Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1] and EN 302 435-1 [i.6].
The present document specifies the equipment which is designed to not radiate into the free space. It is designed to
function only when positioned such that it radiates directly into:
a) free space (for category A equipment); or
b) to the absorptive material such as walls and other building materials which absorb emissions for category B.
The present document does not necessarily include all the characteristics which may be required by a user, nor does it
necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable.

clause 5.2.2.
The test power source used shall be recorded and stated.
5.2.1 External test power source
During tests, the power source of the equipment shall be replaced by an external test power source capable of producing
normal test voltages as specified in clause 5.3.2. The internal impedance of the external test power source shall be low
enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of the tests, the voltage of the external test
power source shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment. The external test power source shall be suitably
de-coupled and applied as close to the equipment battery terminals as practicable. For radiated measurements any
external power leads should be so arranged so as not to affect the measurements.
During tests, the external test power source voltages shall be within a tolerance < ±1 % relative to the voltage at the
beginning of each test.
5.2.2 Internal test power source
For radiated measurements on portable equipment with integral antenna, fully charged internal batteries shall be used.
The batteries used should be as supplied or recommended by the provider. If internal batteries are used, at the end of
each test the voltage shall be within a tolerance of < ±5 % relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test.
If appropriate, the external test power source may replace the supplied or recommended internal batteries at the required
voltage - this shall be recorded and stated. In this case, the battery should remain present, electrically isolated from the
rest of the equipment, possibly by putting tape over its contacts.
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 tests under these conditions, a note to this effect stating the ambient temperature
and relative humidity during the tests, shall be recorded and stated.
ETSI
14 ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2010-06)
5.3.2 Normal test power source
5.3.2.1 Internal battery power source
The normal test voltage for equipment shall be a regulated battery power source. 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.
When the radio equipment is intended for operation with the usual types of regulated battery power source, the normal
test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (e.g. 6 V, 12 V, etc.).
5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources
When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source,
the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (6 V, 12 V, etc.).
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 the
one declared by the equipment provider. Such values shall be recorded and stated.
6 General conditions
6.1 Radiated measurement arrangements
For guidance on radiation test sites and general arrangements for radiated measurements, see annex A.
Detailed descriptions of radiated measurement arrangements for UWB devices can be found in ITU-R
Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1].
All reasonable efforts should be made to clearly demonstrate that emissions from the UWB transmitter do not exceed
the specified levels, with the transmitter in the far field. To the extent practicable, the device under test should be
measured with a measurement setup up as specified in clause 8 and annex A (with the DUT under "far field conditions,
additional Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in front of the measurement receiver and with the specified measurement
bandwidths. However, in order to obtain an adequate signal-to-noise ratio in the measurement system, radiated
measurements may have to be made at distances less than those specified annex A and/or with reduced measurement
bandwidths. The revised measurement configuration should be stated on the test report, together with an explanation of
why the signal levels involved necessitated measurement at the distance employed or with the measurement bandwidth
or with a special set up for the LNA (e.g. cooled LNA) used in order to be accurately detected by the measurement
equipment, and calculations demonstrating compliance.
Where it is not practical to further reduce the measurement bandwidth (either because of limitations of
commonly-available test equipment or difficulties in converting readings taken using one measurement bandwidth to
those used by the limits in tables 3 and 5), and the required measurement distance would be so short that the device
would not clearly be within the far field, the test report shall state this fact, the measurement distance and bandwidth
used, the near field/far field distance for the measurement setup (see clause A.2.4), the measured device emissions, the
achievable measurement noise floor and the frequency range(s) involved.
6.2 Modes of operation of the transmitter
For the purpose of the measurements according to the present document, there shall be a facility to operate the
transmitter in a continuous state, whereby the signal with modulation is transmitted repeatedly.
If pulse gating is employed where the transmitter is quiescent for intervals that are long compared to the nominal pulse
repetition interval, measurements shall be made with the pulse train gated on.
ETSI
15 ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2010-06)
6.3 Measuring receiver
The term measuring receiver refers to a spectrum analyser. The reference bandwidth of the measuring receiver as
defined in CISPR 16-1 [1] shall be as given in table 1.
Table 1: Reference bandwidth of measuring receiver
Frequency being measured: f Spectrum analyser bandwidth (3 dB)

7 Interpretation of results
7.1 Measurement uncertainty
Interpretation of the results recorded in the test report for the measurements described in the present document shall be
as follows:
• the measured value related to the corresponding limit shall be used to decide whether an equipment meets the
requirements of the present document;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be separately included
in the test report;
• the value of the measurement uncertainty shall be wherever possible equal for each measurement, equal to or
lower than the figures in table 2, and the interpretation procedure specified in clause 7.1.1 shall be used.
Table 2: Measurement uncertainty
Parameter Uncertainty
-7
RF frequency
±1 × 10
RF power, radiated ±6 dB
Temperature ±1 K
Humidity
±5 %
Azimuth and elevation during TRP measurement
±5 °
NOTE: For radiated emissions measurements below 2,2 GHz and above 8 GHz it may
not be possible to reduce measurement uncertainty to the levels specified in
table 2 (due to the very low signal level limits and the consequent requirement
for high levels of amplification across wide bandwidths). In these cases alone it
is acceptable to employ the alternative interpretation procedure specified in
clause 7.1.2.
For the test methods, according to the present document the uncertainty figures shall be calculated according to the
methods described in TR 100 028 [2] and shall correspond to an expansion factor (coverage factor) k = 1,96 or k = 2
(which provide confidence levels of respectively 95 % and 95,45 % in cases where the distributions characterizing the
actual measurement uncertainties are normal (Gaussian)).
Table 2 is based on such expansion factors.
The particular expansion factor used for the evaluation of the measurement uncertainty shall be stated.

The internal impedance of the external test power source shall be low enough for its effect on the test results to be negligible. For the purpose of the tests, the voltage of the external test power source shall be measured at the input terminals of the equipment. The external test power source shall be suitably de-coupled and applied as close to the equipment battery terminals as practicable. For radiated measurements any external power leads should be so arranged so as not to affect the measurements. During tests, the external test power source voltages shall be within a tolerance < ±1 % relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test. 5.2.2 Internal test power source For radiated measurements on portable equipment with integral antenna, fully charged internal batteries shall be used. The batteries used should be as supplied or recommended by the provider. If internal batteries are used, at the end of each test the voltage shall be within a tolerance of < ±5 % relative to the voltage at the beginning of each test.
If appropriate, the external test power source may replace the supplied or recommended internal batteries at the required voltage - this shall be recorded and stated. In this case, the battery should remain present, electrically isolated from the rest of the equipment, possibly by putting tape over its contacts. 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 tests under these conditions, a note to this effect stating the ambient temperature and relative humidity during the tests, shall be recorded and stated.

ETSI ETSI EN 302 498-1 V1.1.1 (2010-06) 14 5.3.2 Normal test power source 5.3.2.1 Internal battery power source The normal test voltage for equipment shall be a regulated battery power source. 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. When the radio equipment is intended for operation with the usual types of regulated battery power source, the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (e.g. 6 V, 12 V, etc.). 5.3.2.2 Regulated lead-acid battery power sources When the radio equipment is intended for operation from the usual types of regulated lead-acid battery power source, the normal test voltage shall be 1,1 multiplied by the nominal voltage of the battery (6 V, 12 V, etc.). 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 the one declared by the equipment provider. Such values shall be recorded and stated. 6 General conditions 6.1 Radiated measurement arrangements For guidance on radiation test sites and general arrangements for radiated measurements, see annex A. Detailed descriptions of radiated measurement arrangements for UWB devices can be found in ITU-R Recommendation SM.1754 [i.1]. All reasonable efforts should be made to clearly demonstrate that emissions from the UWB transmitter do not exceed the specified levels, with the transmitter in the far field. To the extent practicable, the device under test should be measured with a measurement setup up as specified in clause 8 and annex A (with the DUT under "far field conditions, additional Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) in front of the measurement receiver and with the specified measurement bandwidths. However, in order to obtain an adequate signal-to-noise ratio in the measurement system, radiated measurements may have to be made at distances less than those specified annex A and/or with reduced measurement bandwidths. The revised measurement configuration should be stated on the test report, together with an explanation of why the signal levels involved necessitated measurement at the distance employed or with the measurement bandwidth or with a special set up for the LNA (e.g. cooled LNA) used in order to be accurately detected by the measurement equipment, and calculations demonstrating compliance. Where it is not practical to further reduce the measurement bandwidth (either because of limitations of commonly-available test equipment or difficulties in converting readings taken using one measurement bandwidth to those used by the limits in tables 3 and 5), and the required measurement distance would be so short that the device would not clearly be within the far field, the test report shall state this fact, the measurement distance and bandwidth used, the near field/far field distance for the measurement setup (see clause A.2.4), the measured device emissions, the achievable measurement noise floor and the frequency range(s) involved. 6.2 Modes of operation of the transmitter For the purpose of the measurements according to the present document, there shall be a facility to operate the transmitter in a continuous state, whereby the signal with modulation is transmitted repeatedly. If pulse gating is employed where the transmitter is quiescent for intervals that are long compared to the nominal pulse repetition interval, measurements shall be made with the pulse train gated on.

The reference bandwidth of the measuring receiver as defined in CISPR 16-1 [1] shall be as given in table 1. Table 1: Reference bandwidth of measuring receiver Frequency being measured: f

7 Interpretation of results 7.1 Measurement uncertainty Interpretation of the results recorded in the test report for the measurements described in the present document shall be as follows: • the measured value related to the corresponding limit shall be used to decide whether an equipment meets the requirements of the present document; • the value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be separately included in the test report; • the value of the measurement uncertainty shall be wherever possible equal for each measurement, equal to or lower than the figures in table 2, and the interpretation procedure specified in clause 7.1.1 shall be used. Table 2: Measurement uncertainty Parameter Uncertainty RF frequency ±1 × 10-7 RF power, radiated ±6 dB Temperature ±1 K
Humidity ±5 % Azimuth and elevation during TRP measurement ±5 ° NOTE: For radiated emissions measurements below 2,2 GHz and above 8 GHz it may not be possible to reduce measurement uncertainty to the levels specified in table 2 (due to the very low signal level limits and the consequent requirement for high levels of amplification across wide bandwidths). In these cases alone it is acceptable to employ the alternative interpretation procedure specified in clause 7.1.2.
For the test methods, according to the present document the uncertainty figures shall be calculated according to the methods described in TR 100 028 [2] and shall correspond to an expansion factor (coverage factor) k = 1,96 or k = 2 (which provide confidence levels of respectively 95 % and 95,45 % in cases where the distributions characterizing the actual measurement uncertainties are normal (Gaussian)). Table 2 is based on such expansion factors. The particular expansion factor used for the evaluation of the measurement uncertainty shall be stated. NOTE: Information on uncertainty contributions, and verification procedures are detailed in TR 102 273 [3]. SIST EN 302
