This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Radio Equipment and Systems

(RES) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).

Details of the Digital European Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) Common Interface may be found in

Further details of the DECT system may be found in the ETSI Technical Reports, ETR 015, ETR 043 and

This TBR contains the technical characteristics particular to public access services using the DECT Public

Access Profile (PAP) provided by terminal equipment which is capable of connection to a public

General attachment requirements and speech attachment requirements are covered by TBR 6 [11] and

This TBR specifies the technical characteristics particular to public access services using the DECT

Public Access Profile (PAP) provided by terminal equipment which is capable of connection to a public

telecommunications network and which uses DECT cordless communications. The cordless

transmissions for such terminal equipment operate within the frequency band 1 880 - 1 900 MHz.

Where applicable, this TBR is in addition to the attachment requirements for the appropriate public

network (see NOTE 1), and to the TBRs for DECT general attachment requirements and for telephony

applications. This TBR applies to DECT equipment declared to conform to the Public Access Profile

This TBR covers the essential requirements for air interface interworking. DECT comprises two

equipment elements, referred to as a Fixed Part (FP) and a Portable Part (PP). Where a feature is

indicated as optional it need not be provided, but where such a feature is provided, the FP and/or PP shall

conform to the requirements and tests of this TBR. This TBR is structured to allow type approval of the FP

For each requirement in this TBR, a test is given, including measurement methods. The terminal

equipment may be stimulated to perform the tests by additional equipment if necessary.

NOTE 1: TBR for basic ISDN, TBR for primary rate ISDN, or national regulations (implementing

ETS 300 001) for PSTN. Interconnection of a DECT terminal to a GSM network is still

under study; in due course, the scope statement may need amending to reflect this

This TBR incorporates, by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These

normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed

hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications

apply to this TBR only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the

Attach: the process whereby a portable part within the coverage area of a fixed part to which it has

access rights, notifies this fixed part that it is operative. The reverse process is detach, which reports the

Authentication: the process whereby a DECT subscriber is positively verified to be a legitimate user of a

NOTE 6: A DECT fixed part contains the logical elements of at least one fixed radio termination,

Fixed radio Termination (FT): a logical group of functions that contains all of the DECT processes and

NOTE 7: A fixed radio termination only includes elements that are defined in ETS 300 175 Parts

1 - 9 [1] to [9]. This includes radio transmission elements together with a selection of

Geographically unique identity: this term relates to fixed part identities, PARIs and RFPIs. It indicates

that two systems with the same PARI, or respectively two RFPs with the same RFPI, can not be reached

NOTE 8: PARI stands for Primary Access Rights Identifier; RFPI stands for Radio Fixed Part

Global NetWork (GNW): a telecommunication network capable of offering a long distance

NOTE 9: The term does not include legal or regulatory aspects, nor does it indicate if the

Globally unique identity: the identity is unique within DECT (without geographical or other restrictions).

Handover: the process of switching a call in progress from one physical channel to another physical

channel. These processes can be internal (see internal handover) or external (see external handover).

NOTE 10: There are two physical forms of handover, intra-cell handover and inter-cell handover.

Intra-cell handover is always internal. Inter-cell handover can be internal or external.

Inter-cell handover: the switching of a call in progress from one cell to another cell.

Internal handover: handover processes that are completely internal to one fixed radio termination.

Internal handover reconnects the call at the lower layers, while maintaining the call at the NWK layer.

NOTE 11: The lower layer reconnection can either be at the DLC layer (connection handover) or

Inter-operability: the capability of fixed parts and portable parts, that enable a portable part to obtain

access to teleservices in more than one location area and/or from more than one operator (more than one

Inter-operator roaming: roaming between fixed part coverage areas of different operators (different

Intra-cell handover: the switching of a call in progress from one physical channel of one cell to another

Intra-operator roaming: roaming between different fixed part coverage areas of the same operator

Local NetWork (LNW): a telecommunication network capable of offering local telecommunication

NOTE 13: The term does not include legal or regulatory aspects, nor does it indicate if the

Locally unique identity: the identity is unique within one FP or location area, depending on application.

Location area: the domain in which a portable part may receive (and/or make) calls as a result of a single

Location registration: the process whereby the position of a DECT portable termination is determined to

the level of one location area, and this position is updated in one or more databases.

NOTE 14: These databases are not included within the DECT fixed radio termination.

MAC Connection (connection): an association between one source MAC Multi-Bearer Control (MBC)

entity and one destination MAC MBC entity. This provides a set of related MAC services (a set of logical

This TBR contains one set of tables for the PT and one set of tables for the FT. Each set of tables

The TBR tables can be used in conjunction with the PAP PICS documents in ETS 300 323-3 [17], ETS

300 323-6 [20] and the PAP test specification overview ETS 300 323-1 [15] for the following purposes:

1) to indicate which procedures, messages, information elements and the contents of which are

2) to provide the complete set of questions in order to perform automatic test case selection using the

expressions described in ETS 300 323-2 [16] and ETS 300 323-5 [19]. For automatic test case

selection according to this TBR the system variable v_tbr11 should be set to TRUE. Also, the

system variable v_pap may be set to TRUE if combined TBR11/PAP test case selection is

When testing according to the requirements of the Terminal Directive [10], the PERL tables list the rows of

the PICS tables for features and procedures which are essential according to these requirements. All

other rows in the PICS tables for features and procedures not referred to in the PERLs are considered not

essential. The timer tables, upper level message tables and upper level information element tables in this

TBR specify the status of the timers, messages and information elements associated with the features

and procedures listed in the PERL tables. The status of these timers, messages and information elements

are derived from the status of the features and procedures specified in the PERL tables. All messages not

included in one of the upper level message tables of this TBR are considered not essential.

During voluntary testing i.e. when outside the scope of the Terminal Directive [10], the PICS or

ETS 300 323-3 [17] and ETS 300 323-6 [20] can be used independently without any cross-referencing to
