Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Land Mobile Service; Multichannel transmitter specification for the PMR Service; Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive

Scope

The present document covers the technical requirements for multiple channel radio transmitters used in stations in the
Private Mobile Radio (PMR) service.
It applies to use in the land mobile service, operating on radio frequencies between 30 MHz and 3 GHz, with channel
separations of < 10 kHz, 12,5 kHz, 20 kHz, 25 kHz, 50 kHz, 100 kHz and 150 kHz.
Table 1: Radiocommunications service frequency bands
Radiocommunications service frequency bands
Transmit 30 MHz to 3 000 MHz
It applies to equipment for continuous and/or discontinuous transmission of data and/or digital speech and/or analogue
speech and using constant envelope or non-constant envelope modulation.
The equipment comprises a transmitter capable of simultaneous amplification or transmission on two or more RF
channels, or an amplifier which when operated with transmitter equipment provides simultaneous transmission on two
or more RF channels. The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows:
• base station (equipment fitted with an antenna connector, intended for use in a fixed location);
• mobile station (equipment fitted with an antenna connector, normally used in a vehicle or as a transportable);
• those hand portable stations:
a) fitted with an antenna connector; or
b) without an external antenna connector (integral antenna equipment), but fitted with a permanent internal
or a temporary internal 50 Ω Radio Frequency (RF) connector which allows access to the transmitter
output;
• and any equipment that may be used in combination with any of the above equipments when directly
connected to those equipments for the amplification of the transmitter output signals of two or more individual
equipments.
Types of equipment not covered by the present document are as follows:
• hand portable equipment without an external or internal RF connector and without the possibility of having a
temporary internal 50 Ω RF connector is not covered by the present document;
• any equipment using passive combining solutions where each transmitter connected to the passive combining
system transmits on a single channel, as detailed in EG 200 053 [i.13], clause H.3.
These specifications apply to the transmitter or transmitter amplifier only. If a receiver is fitted to the same equipment,
the receiver specifications in the relevant specification (references [i.5] to [i.12]) should apply.
These specifications do not necessarily include all the characteristics that may be required by a user of equipment, nor
do they necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.3] (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 [i.3] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
