REN/ERM-TG26-081-3

The present document states the minimum requirements for general communication for shipborne fixed installations using DSC - class D. Class D DSC is intended be used in the Very High Frequency (VHF) band of the Maritime Mobile Service (MMS), for distress, urgency and safety communication and general communications using telephony for subsequent communications. The present document is part 3 of a multipart deliverable that covers the requirements to be fulfilled by equipment that is either integrated with a transmitter and/or a receiver or equipment that is a stand-alone DSC terminal. These requirements include the relevant provisions and the guidelines of the IMO as detailed in MSC/Circ.803 [i.1] for non-SOLAS vessels participating in the GMDSS as well as Commission Decision of 4 September 2003 (2004/71/EC [3]).

The present document states the minimum requirements for general communication for shipborne fixed installations using DSC - class E. Class E DSC is intended to be used in the Medium Frequency (MF) and/or High Frequency (HF) bands of the Maritime Mobile Service (MMS), for distress, urgency and safety communication and general communications and uses telephony for subsequent communications. The present document is part 4 of a multi-part deliverable that covers the requirements to be fulfilled by equipment that is either integrated with a transmitter and/or a receiver or equipment that is a stand-alone DSC terminal. These requirements include the relevant provisions and the guidelines of the IMO as detailed in MSC/Circ.803 [i.1] for non-SOLAS vessels participating in the GMDSS as well as Commission Decision of 4 September 2003 (2004/71/EC [3]).

The present document states the minimum requirements for radio transmitters and receivers, for use on ships, operating in either the Medium Frequency (MF) only or in the Medium and High Frequency (MF/HF) bands allocated in the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Radio Regulations [1], to the Maritime Mobile Service (MMS). The present document includes the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and ITU requirements included in the relevant provisions of the Radio Regulations [1], the International Convention for the Safety Of Life At Sea  (SOLAS) [3], the IMO Resolutions A.694(17) [5] and A806 (19) [4] and is primarily intended to specify equipment suitable for fitting to ships subject to the SOLAS convention and complying with the European Marine Equipment Directive [20]. The present document refers to equipment for one or more of the following: -Single SideBand (SSB) modulation for telephony transmission and reception (J3E); -Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) or SSB modulation of a keyed sub-carrier to transmit and receive Digital Selective Calling (DSC) signals in accordance with ITU-R Recommendation M.493-10 [6]. The present document also refers to radio equipment, which is not integrated with the DSC encoder or decoder, but defines the interfaces with such equipment. NOTE:The requirements for integrated equipment may be found in other relevant ETSs. The tests in the present document are applicable to receivers for operating on all frequencies in the bands 1 605 kHz to 4 000 kHz or 1 605 kHz to 27,5 MHz as allocated in the Radio Regulations [1], to the MMS. Other spot frequency receivers should meet all the requirements of the present document and other relevant standards as applicable for the frequencies and modes provided. If the equipment, or parts of it, are designed in such a manner that they can be used for other categories of maritime radiocommunication (e.g. Morse telegraphy or NBDP (ETS 300 067 [10]), those parts of the equipment should fulfil the relevant requirements of the appropriate standards for the service(s) in question e.g. ETS 300 067 [10]. The EMC parameters defined in the clauses of this standard covering emission tests and immunity test (see clauses 8 and 9) have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility for apparatus in marine environments. Compliance to the EMC requirements of this standard does not signify compliance to any safety requirements. However, it is the responsibility of the assessor of the equipment to record in their test report any observations regarding the test sample becoming dangerous or unsafe as a result of the application of the tests called for herein. The present document does not address the testing of ancillary equipment on a stand-alone basis, i.e. separately from the radio equipment with which it is to be used.

The present document covers the minimum requirements for general communication for shipborne fixed installations using a VHF radiotelephone operating in certain frequency bands allocated to the maritime mobile service using both 25 kHz and 12,5 kHz channels with associated equipment for DSC - class D. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE Directive) article 3.3 (e), which states that radio equipment within the scope of the present document shall be so constructed that: "it supports certain features ensuring access to emergency services". 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.
