Foreword
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Radio Equipment and
Systems (RES) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
This ETS consists of two parts as follows:
Part 1: "Technical characteristics for private wide-area paging systems";
Part 2: "Functional characteristics and access protocol for private wide-area paging systems
on shared channels".
Provisions for ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) are defined in ETS 300 719-1 [1] and ETS 300 741.

Date of adoption: 20 June 1997
Date of latest announcement of this ETS (doa): 31 October 1997

Introduction
Private Wide-Area Paging (PWAP) systems are basically On-Site Paging (OSP) systems with an
extended range achieved by using a higher transmitter power (for guidance 25W could be a suitable
value) and antenna location, as well as a specified receiver sensitivity. Private Wide-Area Paging systems
can operate as a set of two or more paging systems working independently from each other and having
overlapping coverage areas and sharing the same channel. Potential applications include emergency
services, hospitals and manufacturing industry that may be located at various sites within the covered
area.
These systems may use time sharing in order to increase the number of virtual available channels. The
time sharing specified in this ETS is based on a free-running system with dynamic channel access, that
requires minimum overhead and provides for maximum available net-air time.
This access protocol applies to single frequency simplex operation where the carrier sense mechanism is
available for use according to this protocol. It features dynamic channel access by applying CSMA/CA
techniques. This access protocol is applicable for:
- multiple users who do not share a common central control facility but do share a common single
radio channel, for the independent transmission of paging-messages;
- multiple users who do not share a common central control facility but do share a common single
radio channel, for the independent transmission of analogue speech and / or paging messages, and
where speech-transmissions do not have any priority over the transmission of (non-speech) paging-
messages.
This ETS does not include performance characteristics that may be required by the user or requirements
for interfacing equipment.
The conditions for licensing as well as conditions for interfacing to Public Switched Telephone Network
(PSTN) are determined by the appropriate authorities.

1 Scope
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) specifies the access protocol and functional
characteristics for Private Wide-Area Paging (PWAP) systems. Such systems are characterized by one-
way data and speech transmissions on radio channels shared by different users. This ETS gives freedom
for the use of any bit rate, any type of modulation or any type of protocol which fulfils the requirements of
this ETS in order to access a shared radio channel.
In this ETS the operational aspects of the private wide-area paging service have been included.
2 Normative references
This ETS incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and publications are listed hereafter.
For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to this
ETS only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of
the publication referred to applies.

3.1 Definitions
For the purpose of this ETS, the following definitions apply:
3.1.1 General definitions
base station receiver: A receiver fitted with an antenna socket and intended for use in a fixed location.
This can be a stand-alone device or part of a transceiver.
bit: Binary digit.
block: The smallest quantity of information that is sent over the radio channel. A constant number of
useful bits are always sent together with the corresponding redundancy bits.
packet: One block or a contiguous stream of blocks sent by one transmitter to one particular receiver or
one particular group of receivers.
3.1.2 Functional definitions
access: To gain occupancy of the Radio Frequency (RF) channel.
cycle time (t ): The length of time between subsequent transmissions of the same system at full load.
c
transmission time slot interval (t): The duration of channel occupancy of a paging system
t
(subclause 5.3.4).
ordinal number: An integer assigned to each system to establish a sequence.
system: A service provider of private wide area paging.

4.1 General
The private wide-area paging system is a privately owned and operated paging system to serve an area
within and beyond the boundary of the site. The intended free field range of a system is approximately
10 km (to comprise a city and its near surroundings). The radio channel may be either shared by several
systems or dedicated to a single system.
The radio part of a private wide-area paging system as defined in this ETS is made up exclusively from
equipment that conforms with ETS
