ETSIETSI EN 300 152 V1.2.1 (1999-10)71ScopeThe present document lays down the minimum requirements for maritime Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons(EPIRBs) operating on certain frequencies, and incorporates the relevant provisions of the International TelecommunicationUnion (ITU) radio regulations and the relevant standards of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).EPIRBs are defined as stations in the maritime mobile service, the emissions of which are intended to facilitate searchand rescue operations.The EPIRBs described in the present document are intended only for transmission of radio signals on the frequency121,5 MHz or the frequencies 121,5 MHz and 243 MHz for locating vessels and survival craft in distress.The present document also applies to EPIRBs intended for very short range man-overboard location applications. Forthis application, both the radiated power and the length of time of operation are reduced to enable the equipment to besufficiently small and light to be worn comfortably at all times.2ReferencesThe following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the presentdocument.·References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) ornon-specific.·For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.·For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.·A non-specific reference to an ETS shall also be taken to refer to later versions published as an EN with the samenumber.[1]ITU-R Recommendation M.690-1: "Technical characteristics of emergency position-indicatingradio beacons (EPIRBs) operating on the carrier frequencies of 121,5 MHz and 243 MHz".[2]ETR 028: "Radio Equipment and Systems (RES); Uncertainties in the measurement of mobileradio equipment characteristics".[3]ETR 273: "Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Improvement ofradiated methods of measurement (using test sites) and evaluation of the correspondingmeasurement uncertainties".3Definitions, symbols and abbreviations3.1DefinitionsFor the purposes of the present document the following terms and definitions apply:EPIRB station: station in the mobile service, the emissions of which are intended to facilitate search and rescueoperationshoming device: 121,5 MHz / 243 MHz beacon primarily intended for transmitting homing signalsPSIST EN 300 152:2000
