Introduction
The requirements defined in the present document have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with
other radio services. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases, which may occur in any location but with a low
probability of occurrence.
The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing
individually repeated transient phenomena or a continuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the
near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or
the interfered part or both.

6 Final draft ETSI EN 301 444 V2.1.1 (2016-07)
The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or information about the installation of the
LMES.
The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given geo-stationary satellite for the protection of
the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operators or the
satellite network operators. Applicants for LMESs operating in satellite networks which provide radio navigation
service and/or other safety services should note that such satellite network operators may require testing in addition to
the present document to prove correct interworking in order to avoid the LMES causing harmful interference which
endangers the functioning of these services.
Following the WRC-03 decision [i.4] to allocate to MSS the bands 1 518 MHz to 1 525 MHz (space to Earth) and
1 668 MHz to 1 675 MHz (Earth to space) and the conclusions of WRC-07 [i.5], a new set of emission requirements for
LMESs that are capable of transmitting in the frequency band from 1 668,0 MHz to 1 675,0 MHz is specified.
The two parts of the L-band frequency allocations are treated as two sub-bands which may be used separately or in any
combination. The standard L-band allocation is referenced in the present document as "sub-band 1" and the extended
L-band is referenced as "sub-band 2".
Table 2c is applicable for LMESs that are capable of transmitting in any combination of either or both of these
sub-bands. Table 2c is recommended for all new LMESs including LMES that can only operate in sub-band 1.
The applicant may choose between tables 2b and 2c for new LMESs that are capable of transmitting in only the
sub-band 1. The applicant has to declare which alternative is used.
The present document specifies a new set of receiver performance requirements for LMESs under the new Radio
Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU [7].

1 Scope
The present document applies to Land Mobile Earth Stations (LMESs) radio equipment with an EIRP less than or equal
to 33 dBW and which have the following characteristics:
• the LMES could be either vehicle mounted or portable equipment;
• these LMESs are controlled and monitored by a Network Control Facility (NCF). The NCF is outside the
scope of the present document;
• the LMES operate through geostationary satellites as part of a network providing voice and/or data
communications;
• the LMES is capable of operating in any combination of all or any part of the frequency ranges sub-band 1 and
sub-band 2 defined in table 1a.
Table 1a: Land Mobile Satellite Service frequency bands
Sub-Band Direction of transmission LMSS frequency bands
Transmit 1 (Earth to space) 1 626,5 MHz to 1 660,5 MHz

Transmit 2 (Earth to space) 1 668,0 MHz to 1 675,0 MHz
Receive 2 (space to Earth) 1 518,0 MHz to 1 525,0 MHz
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [7] (RE Directive) article 3.2 which
states that "….radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio
spectrum in order 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 Directive 2014/53/UE [7] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.

The technical requirements presented in this clause shall apply to all LMESs that are capable of transmitting either in
sub-band 1, or sub-band 2, or in both sub-bands as defined in table 1a for the purpose of:
• protection of satellite and terrestrial services operating in the 1 625,8 MHz to 1 661,2 MHz frequency band;
and
• protection of satellite and terrestrial services operating in the 1 667,3 MHz to 1 675,7 MHz frequency band.

4.2.2.2 Specifications
If an LMES is capable of transmitting in both sub-band 1 and sub-band 2 as defined in table 1a, there are two different
limits in this clause. The limits defined in table 3 shall only apply for the current transmit band as defined below.
Specification 1: Carrier-on state
For LMES transmitting in sub-band 1 (as defined in table 1a), the unwanted emission EIRP in any 3 kHz band within
the 1 625,8 MHz to 1 661,2 MHz band, but outside the nominated bandwidth, shall not exceed the limits of table 3; and
the emission limits within the 1 667,3 MHz to 1 675,7 MHz frequency band shall not exceed 74 dBpW in any 100 kHz
measurement bandwidth.
NOTE 1: If an applicant declares to use table 2b for an LMES the same emission limit for the 1 667,3 MHz to
1 675,7 MHz frequency band is also defined in table 2b.
For LMES transmitting in sub-band 2 (as defined in table 1a), the unwanted emission EIRP in any 3 kHz band within
the 1 667,3 MHz to 1 675,7 MHz band, but outside the nominated bandwidth, shall not exceed the limits of table 3; and
the emission limits within the 1 625,8 MHz to 1 661,2 MHz frequency band shall not exceed 74 dBpW in any 100 kHz
measurement bandwidth.

Introduction
The requirements defined in the present document have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with
other radio services. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases, which may occur in any location but with a low
probability of occurrence.
The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing
individually repeated transient phenomena or a continuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the
near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or
the interfered part or both.
The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or information about the installation of the
LMES.
The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given geo-stationary satellite for the protection of
the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operators or the
satellite network operators. Applicants for LMESs operating in satellite networks which provide radio navigation
service and/or other safety services should note that such satellite network operators may require testing in addition to
the present document to prove correct interworking in order to avoid the LMES causing harmful interference which
endangers the functioning of these services.
Following the WRC-03 decision [i.4] to allocate to MSS the bands 1 518 MHz to 1 525 MHz (space to Earth) and
1 668 MHz to 1 675 MHz (Earth to space) and the conclusions of WRC-07 [i.5], a new set of emission requirements for
LMESs that are capable of transmitting in the frequency band from 1 668,0 MHz to 1 675,0 MHz is specified.
The two parts of the L-band frequency allocations are treated as two sub-bands which may be used separately or in any
combination. The standard L-band allocation is referenced in the present document as "sub-band 1" and the extended
L-band is referenced as "sub-band 2".
Table 2c is applicable for LMESs that are capable of transmitting in any combination of either or both of these
sub-bands. Table 2c is recommended for all new LMESs including LMES that can only operate in sub-band 1.
The applicant may choose between tables 2b and 2c for new LMESs that are capable of transmitting in only the
sub-band 1. The applicant has to declare which alternative is used.
The present document specifies a new set of receiver performance requirements for LMESs under the new Radio
Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6].
Figure 1: Void
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] (RE Directive) article 3.2 which
states that "….radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio
spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference".
Recital 10 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] states that "in order to ensure that radio equipment uses the radio spectrum
effectively and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum, radio equipment should be constructed so that: in the case
of a transmitter, when the transmitter is properly installed, maintained and used for its intended purpose it generates
radio waves emissions that do not create harmful interference, while unwanted radio waves emissions generated by the
transmitter (e.g. in adjacent channels) with a potential negative impact on the goals of radio spectrum policy should be
limited to such a level that, according to the state of the art, harmful interference is avoided; and, in the case of a
receiver, it has a level of performance that allows it to operate as intended and protects it against the risk of harmful
interference, in particular from shared or adjacent channels, and, in so doing, supports improvements in the efficient
use of shared or adjacent channels".
Recital 11 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] states that "although receivers do not themselves cause harmful interference,
reception capabilities are an increasingly important factor in ensuring the efficient use of radio spectrum by way of an
increased resilience of receivers against harmful interference and unwanted signals on the basis of the relevant
essential requirements of Union harmonisation legislation".
As a consequence, the present document includes both transmitting and receiving parameters aiming to maximize the
efficient use of radio spectrum.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Land Mobile Earth Stations (LMESs) radio equipment with an EIRP less than or equal
to 33 dBW and which have the following characteristics:
• the LMES could be either vehicle mounted or portable equipment;
• these LMESs are controlled and monitored by a Network Control Facility (NCF). The NCF is outside the
scope of the present document;
• the LMES operate through geostationary satellites as part of a network providing voice and/or data
communications;
• the LMES is capable of operating in any combination of all or any part of the frequency ranges sub-band 1 and
sub-band 2 defined in table 1a.

Transmit 1 (Earth to space) 1 626,5 MHz to 1 660,5 MHz
Receive 1 (space to Earth) 1 525,0 MHz to 1 559,0 MHz
Transmit 2 (Earth to space) 1 668,0 MHz to 1 675,0 MHz
Receive 2 (space to Earth) 1 518,0 MHz to 1 525,0 MHz
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] (RE Directive) article 3.2 which
states that "….radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio
spectrum in order 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 Directive 2014/53/UE [i.6] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.

ETSI ETSI EN 301 444 V2.1.2 (2016-11) 6 Introduction The requirements defined in the present document have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with other radio services. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases, which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing individually repeated transient phenomena or a continuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or the interfered part or both. The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or information about the installation of the LMES. The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given geo-stationary satellite for the protection of the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operators or the satellite network operators. Applicants for LMESs operating in satellite networks which provide radio navigation service and/or other safety services should note that such satellite network operators may require testing in addition to the present document to prove correct interworking in order to avoid the LMES causing harmful interference which endangers the functioning of these services.
Following the WRC-03 decision [i.4] to allocate to MSS the bands 1 518 MHz to 1 525 MHz (space to Earth) and 1 668 MHz to 1 675 MHz (Earth to space) and the conclusions of WRC-07 [i.5], a new set of emission requirements for LMESs that are capable of transmitting in the frequency band from 1 668,0 MHz to 1 675,0 MHz is specified. The two parts of the L-band frequency allocations are treated as two sub-bands which may be used separately or in any combination. The standard L-band allocation is referenced in the present document as "sub-band 1" and the extended L-band is referenced as "sub-band 2". Table 2c is applicable for LMESs that are capable of transmitting in any combination of either or both of these sub-bands. Table 2c is recommended for all new LMESs including LMES that can only operate in sub-band 1.
The applicant may choose between tables 2b and 2c for new LMESs that are capable of transmitting in only the sub-band 1. The applicant has to declare which alternative is used.
The present document specifies a new set of receiver performance requirements for LMESs under the new Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6]. Figure 1: Void The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] (RE Directive) article 3.2 which states that "….radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference". Recital 10 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] states that "in order to ensure that radio equipment uses the radio spectrum effectively and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum, radio equipment should be constructed so that: in the case of a transmitter, when the transmitter is properly installed, maintained and used for its intended purpose it generates radio waves emissions that do not create harmful interference, while unwanted radio waves emissions generated by the transmitter (e.g. in adjacent channels) with a potential negative impact on the goals of radio spectrum policy should be limited to such a level that, according to the state of the art, harmful interference is avoided; and, in the case of a receiver, it has a level of performance that allows it to operate as intended and protects it against the risk of harmful interference, in particular from shared or adjacent channels, and, in so doing, supports improvements in the efficient use of shared or adjacent channels".
Recital 11 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.6] states that "although receivers do not themselves cause harmful interference, reception capabilities are an increasingly important factor in ensuring the efficient use of radio spectrum by way of an increased resilience of receivers against harmful interference and unwanted signals on the basis of the relevant essential requirements of Union harmonisation legislation". As a consequence, the present document includes both transmitting and receiving parameters aiming to maximize the efficient use of radio spectrum. SIST EN 301 444 V2.1.2:2017
