Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM);ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for Maritime Mobile Earth Stations (MMES) operating in the 1,5/1,6 GHz bands providing Low Bit Rate Data Communications (LBRDC) for the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS)

Scope

The present document covers the assessment of Inmarsat-C Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and Enhanced Group Call (EGC) Ship Earth Stations, as defined by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to be used for Low Bit Rate Data Communications (LBRDC) in the GMDSS, in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions for the enclosure port of the radio equipment are found in the related product standard ETS 300 460 [11] for the effective use of the radio spectrum. The present document specifies the applicable EMC tests, the test methods, the limits and the minimum performance criteria for Ship Earth Stations for the maritime mobile service operating in the Maritime Mobile Satellite Service (MMSS) bands.
