Short Range Devices (SRD) operating in the frequency range 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz; Part 3-1: Harmonised Standard covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU; Low duty cycle high reliability equipment, social alarms equipment operating on designated frequencies (869,200 MHz to 869,250 MHz)

Scope

The present document applies to social alarm devices operating on designated frequencies.
Designated frequencies are those frequency bands identified in Commission Decision 2013/752/EU [i.3] as having a
usage available only to social alarms.
Social alarms are defined in Commission Decision 2013/752/EU [i.3] as:
"Social alarm devices" are radio communications systems that allow reliable communication for a person in distress in

The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that radio equipment both effectively uses and supports the
efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference.
