Introduction Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio technology enables a new generation of high-speed data devices for short-range communication purposes as well as location tracking and Sensor devices and opens new markets with a variety of innovative applications.
UWB devices may form an integral part of other portable electronic equipment such as future generation cellular phones or laptops equipped with UWB enabled short-range air interfaces. In addition, UWB devices with an operating bandwidth of several hundreds of MHz up to several GHz allow tens of centimetre-level accuracy real time localization and positioning even in the presence of severe multipath effects caused by walls, furniture or any other harsh radio propagation environments. SIST EN 303 883 V1.1.1:2016



ETSI ETSI EN 303 883 V1.1.1 (2016-09) 7 Based on the broad variety of different applications and the broad possible frequency range of operation the number of possible deployed physical signal formats can be very large. The existing range of physical signal and modulation formats range from traditional carrier based systems like OFDM over spread spectrum based system to carrier less systems based on base band pulses. The frequency regulation on the other side only defines a single set of transmission limits and values, which have to be fulfilled by all systems under the UWB regulation. Furthermore, the very high channel bandwidth of a UWB signal gives a specific challenge to the needed measurement setup and the procedures. Existing measurement methods need to be extended and new possible techniques should be described in the present document.

Introduction
Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio technology enables a new generation of high-speed data devices for short-range
communication purposes as well as location tracking and Sensor devices and opens new markets with a variety of
innovative applications.
UWB devices may form an integral part of other portable electronic equipment such as future generation cellular
phones or laptops equipped with UWB enabled short-range air interfaces.
In addition, UWB devices with an operating bandwidth of several hundreds of MHz up to several GHz allow tens of
centimetre-level accuracy real time localization and positioning even in the presence of severe multipath effects caused
by walls, furniture or any other harsh radio propagation environments.

Based on the broad variety of different applications and the broad possible frequency range of operation the number of
possible deployed physical signal formats can be very large. The existing range of physical signal and modulation
formats range from traditional carrier based systems like OFDM over spread spectrum based system to carrier less
systems based on base band pulses. The frequency regulation on the other side only defines a single set of transmission
limits and values, which have to be fulfilled by all systems under the UWB regulation. Furthermore, the very high
channel bandwidth of a UWB signal gives a specific challenge to the needed measurement setup and the procedures.
Existing measurement methods need to be extended and new possible techniques should be described in the present
document.

Intellectual Property Rights
IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (https://ipr.etsi.org/).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Foreword
This draft European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic compatibility

Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 3 months after ETSI publication
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e): 6 months after doa
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 6 months after doa

Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).

Introduction
Ultra Wide Band (UWB) radio technology enables a new generation of high-speed data devices for short-range
communication purposes as well as location tracking and Sensor devices and opens new markets with a variety of
innovative applications.
UWB devices may form an integral part of other portable electronic equipment such as future generation cellular
phones or laptops equipped with UWB enabled short-range air interfaces.
In addition, UWB devices with an operating bandwidth of several hundreds of MHz up to several GHz allow tens of
centimetre-level accuracy real time localization and positioning even in the presence of severe multipath effects caused
by walls, furniture or any other harsh radio propagation environments.
Based on the broad variety of different applications and the broad possible frequency range of operation the number of
possible deployed physical signal formats can be very large. The existing range of physical signal and modulation
formats range from traditional carrier based systems like OFDM over spread spectrum based system to carrier less
systems based on base band pulses. The frequency regulation on the other side only defines a single set of transmission
limits and values, which have to be fulfilled by all systems under the UWB regulation. Furthermore, the very high
channel bandwidth of a UWB signal gives a specific challenge to the needed measurement setup and the procedures.
Existing measurement methods need to be extended and new possible techniques should be described in the present
document.

1 Scope
The present document summarizes the available information of possible measurement techniques and procedures for the
conformance measurement of various UWB signal formats in order to comply with the given transmission limits given
in the current regulation.
The present document will be used as a reference for existing and future ETSI standards covering UWB technologies.
