Introduction
The present document covers the ultra low power radio transmitters used in a new Medical Data Service and the various
types of devices that form part of the system providing the service. It includes methods of measurement and
requirements for radio systems used in the service that are fitted with an antenna connector and/or having an integral
antenna. If a device which is operating in the MEDS and is available on the market is required to be checked, it should
be tested in accordance with the methods of measurement specified in the present document.
• Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description on the types of equipment covered by the present document
and the definitions and abbreviations used.
• Clause 4 provides a guide to essential requirements, the number of samples required in order that tests may be
carried out and any markings on the equipment that the provider has to supply.
• Clauses 5 and 6 provide general test conditions to be used.
• Clause 7 gives the maximum measurement uncertainty values.
• Clauses 8, 9 and 10 specify the spectrum utilization parameters. Clause 8 specifies low power low duty cycle
spectrum access technical parameters. Clause 9 specifies receiver technical requirements. Clause 10 specifies
methods of spectrum access that are required to be implemented in order to gain access to the available
spectrum. In particular clause 10.2 and subsequent clauses describe specifications that have been chosen to
minimize harmful interference to other equipment or services and reduce the potential for interference to this
equipment from ambient sources based on use of LBT and AFA.
• Annex A (normative) provides specifications concerning radiated measurements.
• Annex B (normative) provides specifications for test equipment.
• Annex C (informative)

Introduction
The present document covers the ultra low power radio transmitters used in a new Medical Data Service and the various
types of devices that form part of the system providing the service. It includes methods of measurement and
requirements for radio systems used in the service that are fitted with an antenna connector and/or having an integral
antenna. If a device which is operating in the MEDS an
