Foreword
This Candidate Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical
Committee Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part EN covering the Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum
Matters (ERM); Portable Very High Frequency (VHF) radiotelephone equipment for the maritime mobile service
operating in the VHF bands (for non-GMDSS applications only), as identified below:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics and methods of measurement";
Part 2: "Harmonized EN under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive".
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [6] laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical
standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC [1] of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive").

Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards designed to fit in a modular structure to cover all radio and

modular structure is shown in figure 1.

The left hand edge of the figure 1 shows the different subclauses of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1].
For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Dotted lines indicate that at the time of publication of the present
document essential requirements in these areas have to be adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements are
adopted, and as far and as long as they are applicable, they will justify individual standards whose scope is likely to be
specified by function or interface type.
The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum by radio equipment. The scopes
of these standards are specified either by frequency (normally in the case where frequency bands are harmonized) or by
radio equipment type.
For article 3.1b the diagram shows the new single multi-part product EMC standard for radio, and the existing collection
of generic and product standards currently used under the EMC Directive [2]. The parts of this new standard will
become available in the second half of 2000, and the existing separate product EMC standards will be used until it is
available.
For article 3.1a the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LV Directive [3] and new
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. New standards covering acoustic safety may also be
required.
The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. A particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both. A radio
spectrum standard will apply if it is radio equipment. An article 3.3 standard will apply as well only if the relevant
essential requirement under the R&TTE Directive [1] is adopted by the Commission and if the equipment in question is
covered by the scope of the corresponding standard. Thus, depending on the nature of the equipment, the essential
requirements under the R&TTE Directive [1] may be covered in a set of standards.
The modularity principle has been taken because:
- it minimizes the number of standards needed. Because equipment may, in fact, have multiple interfaces and
functions it is not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may
occur in an equipment;
- it provides scope for standards to be added:
- under article 3.2 when new frequency bands are agreed; or
- under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions;
without requiring alteration of standards that are already published;
- it clarifies, simplifies and promotes the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity
assessment.

1 Scope
The present document applies radio portable Very High Frequency (VHF) radiotelephone equipment for the maritime
mobile service operating in all or any part of the VHF band 156 MHz to 174 MHz (for non-GMDSS applications only).
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE Directive) 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] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
