Foreword
This Candidate Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical
Committee Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).

The present document was submitted to Public Enquiry as EN 300 219. It was divided into two parts during the Public
Enquiry resolution phase.

The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable, covering the Land Mobile Service; Radio equipment
transmitting signals to initiate a specific response in the receiver, as identified below:

Part 1: "Technical characteristics and methods of measurements";

Part 2: "Harmonized EN covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [6] 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 [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").

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards designed to fit in a modular structure to cover all radio and
telecommunications terminal equipment under the R&TTE Directive [1].

Each standard is a module in the structure. The modular structure is shown in figure 1.

Explanation of figure 1

The left hand edge of the figure 1 shows the different clauses of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1].

For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Dotted lines indicate that at the time of publication of this standard
essential requirements in these areas have to be adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements are adopted,
and as far and as long as they are applicable, they will justify individual standards whose scope is likely to be specified
by function or interface type.

The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum by radio equipment.

For article 3.1b the diagram shows the new single multi-part product EMC standard for radio, and the existing
collection of generic and product standards currently used under the EMC Directive [2]. The parts of this new standard
will become available in the second half of 2000, and the existing separate product EMC standards will be used until it
is available (at the time of publication of the present document, the part relating to the equipment covered by the present
document is part 5).

For article 3.1a the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LV Directive [3] and new
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. New standards covering acoustic safety may also be
required.

The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. A particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both. A radio
spectrum standard will apply if it is radio equipment. An article 3.3 standard will apply as well only if the relevant
essential requirement under the R&TTE Directive [1] is adopted by the Commission and if the equipment in question is
covered by the scope of the corresponding standard. Thus, depending on the nature of the equipment, the essential
requirements under the R&TTE Directive [1] may be covered in a set of standards.

The modularity principle has been taken because it is expected that it would:

- minimize the number of standards needed (because equipment may, in fact, have multiple interfaces and
functions it is not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may
occur in an equipment);

- provide scope for standards to be added under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions
without requiring alteration of standards that are already published;

- clarify and simplify the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity assessment.

1 Scope
The present document applies to constant envelope angle modulation systems for use in the land mobile service, using
the available bandwidth, operating on radio frequencies between 30 MHz and 1 000 MHz, with channel separations of
12,5 kHz, 20 kHz and 25 kHz intended for non-speech transmissions (more specifically, transmissions of signals used
to initiate a specific response in the receiver). It applies to non-speech and to the non-speech part of combined
speech/non-speech equipment having an antenna connector.

In the present document non-speech radio equipment is defined as radio equipment transmitting a signal to initiate a
specific response in the receiver. The equipment comprises a transmitter and associated encoder and/or a receiver and
associated decoder. The encoder and/or the decoder may be a separate piece of equipment, in which case compliance
with the present document covers the combination of encoder and/or decoder and transmitter and/or receiver equipment.

The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Article 3.2, of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE
Directive), 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 [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/.

5 Testing for compliance with technical requirements

5.1 Test conditions, power supply and ambient temperatures

Measurements shall be made under normal test conditions, and also, where stated in EN 300 219-1 [4], under extreme
test conditions.

The test conditions and procedures shall be as specified in EN 300 219-1 [4], clauses 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5.

5.2 Interpretation of the measurement results

The interpretation of the results recorded in a test report for the measurements described in the present document shall
be as follows:

- the measured value related to the corresponding limit will 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 included in the test
report;

- the value of the measurement uncertainty shall be, for each measurement, equal to or lower than the figures in
table 1.

For the test methods, according to the present document, the measurement uncertainty figures shall be calculated in
accordance with ETR 028 [5] 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 the case where the distributions characterizing the actual
measurement uncertainties are normal (Gaussian)).

Table 1 is based on such expansion factors.

The particular expansion factor used for the evaluation of the measurement uncertainty shall be stated.
