The present document summarizes all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in
applications deployed in bands where frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced
in two different clauses sub-sets:
• Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of
the R&TTE Directive [1] and further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
• Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under
article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered having been commonly agreed for
proper system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements
are present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis.
Description and limits for parameters relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] are
given in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For other system-dependent parameters where standardization is required but that do not affect the R&TTE Directive
"essential requirements" mentioned above, description and limits are detailed in the present document in the annexes A
to G, subdivided by frequency band or specific applications.
The present document deals with Radio Frequency (RF) and base-band equipment characteristics; antenna system
requirements are covered in EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] and EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5].
The present document does not cover test procedures and test conditions which are set out in EN 301 126-1 [14].
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are defined in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
The spectral efficiency classes are indicative only and do not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements in the relevant parts of this EN 302 217 series are met.
In some cases, where within the same spectral efficiency class there are different applications, (e.g. for multi-channel
trunk or single channel operation), that justify different radio frequency parameters, two different equipment "types"
(e.g. type 1 and 2) are provided.
Guidance on the definition of radio parameters relevant to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE
Directive [1] for DFRS may be found in TR 101 506 [i.2].
Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this EN 302 217 series may be found
in TR 101 036-1 [i.1].
