Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Radio Frequency Identification Equipment operating in the band 865 MHz to 868 MHz with power levels up to 2 W; Part 1: Technical requirements and methods of measurement

REN/ERM-TG34-005-1

Elektromagnetna združljivost in zadeve v zvezi z radijskim spektrom (ERM) - Oprema za radiofrekvenčno identifikacijo (RFID), ki deluje v pasu od 865 MHz do 868 MHz z močnostnimi nivoji do 2 W - 1. del: Tehnične zahteve in merilne metode

Pričujoči dokument zajema minimalne zahtevane lastnosti za najboljšo izrabo razpoložljivih frekvenc. Ni nujno, da vključuje vse značilnosti, potrebne za uporabnika, niti ni nujno, da predstavlja dosegljive optimalne zmogljivosti.
Proizvodi za radiofrekvenčno identifikacijo, zajeti v pričujočem dokumentu, se po definiciji štejejo za naprave kratkega dosega. Za to opremo so določene omejitve moči do največ e.r.p. 2 W v frekvenčen razponu od 865 MHz do 868 MHz. Pričujoči dokument velja za RFID izpraševalce in oznake, ki skupaj delujejo kot sistem. Izpraševalci oddajajo na štirih določenih 200 kHz kanalih, vsak od njih pa uporablja modulirano nosilno frekvenco. Oznake odgovorijo z moduliranim signalom, po možnosti po sosednjih kanalih nizke moči. Izpraševalci se lahko uporabijo z vgrajenimi ali zunanjimi antenami. Zahteve po elektromagnetni združljivosti (EMC) so zajete v EN 301 489-1 [i.1] in EN 301 489-3 [i.2]. Tipi opreme, ki jo pričujoči dokument zajema, so:
- stalni izpraševalci;
- prenosni izpraševalci;
- oznake brez baterij;
- oznake, ki jim pomagajo baterije;
- oznake, ki jim poganjajo baterije.
