Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Base Stations (BS), Repeaters and User Equipment (UE) for IMT-2000 Third-Generation cellular networks; Part 10: Harmonized EN for IMT-2000, FDMA/TDMA (DECT) covering essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive

Scope

The present document applies to terminal equipment for IMT-FT. IMT-FT is the Digital Enhanced Cordless
Telecommunications (DECT) system being a member of the ITU IMT-2000 family. DECT terminal equipment consists
of the following elements:
a) Fixed Part (FP);
b) Portable Part (PP);
c) Cordless Terminal Adapter (CTA);
d) Wireless Relay Station (WRS) (FP and PP combined with repeater functionality).
The IMT-FT (DECT) service frequency bands for transmitting and receiving for all elements are the parts of the
European UMTS spectrum applicable for TDD operation, 1 900 MHz to 1 980 MHz and 2 010 MHz to 2 025 MHz.
(see ERC/DEC(99)25 [15] and ERC/DEC(00)01 [16]).
NOTE 1: IMT-FT equipment may have a second mode for providing operation also in the DECT band 1 880 MHz
to 1 900 MHz. Application of DECT in the band 1 880 MHz to 1 900 MHz is covered by
EN 301 406 [17].
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE Directive) [1] article 3.2,
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] will apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE 2: A list of such ENs is included on the web site: http://www.newapproach.org/.
