Digitalne povezave VHF zrak-tla (VDL), 2. način - Tehnične karakteristike in merilne metode za talno opremo - 3. del: Harmonizirani EN, ki zajema bistvene zahteve člena 3.2 direktive R&TTE

Ta dokument velja za digitalne komunikacije zrak-tla VDL, 2. način, ki uporabljajo diferencialno osemfazno premično šifriranje (D8PSK), namenjeno kanalni prirasti 25 kHz. Sistem VDL, 2. način, zagotavlja izmenjavo podatkovne komunikacije med zračnim plovilom in talnimi sistemi, ki delujejo v pasu VHF (od 117.975 MHz do 137.000 MHz).
Področje uporabe tega dokumenta je omejeno na talne postaje.
OPOMBA 1: VDL, 2. način, se lahko uporabi kot zrak/tla podomrežje aeronavtičnega telekomunikacijskega omrežja (ATN) z uporabo pasu z razporeditvijo spektra AM(R)S.
Namen tega dokumenta je zajem določbe člena 3.2 Direktive 1999/5/ES [i.2], (direktive R&TTE), ki navaja, da »… radijska oprema je narejena tako, da učinkovito izrablja spekter, razporejen za prizemne/vesoljske radiokomunikacije in orbitalne vire, tako da ne pride do škodljivega motenja«.
Poleg tega dokumenta se preostali EN, ki določajo tehnične zahteve v skladu z bistvenimi zahtevami v drugih delih člena 3 direktive R&TTE in bistvene zahteve iz Uredbe o interoperabilnosti za enotno evropsko nebo [i.3] (z dopolnitvami) ter ustrezna pravila za izvedbo, lahko uporabljajo za opremo v okviru področja uporabe tega dokumenta.

1 Scope
The present document applies to VDL Mode 2 ground-air digital communications using Differential Eight Phase Shift
Keying (D8PSK), intended for channel increments of 25 kHz. The VDL Mode 2 system provides data communication
exchanges between aircraft and ground-based systems, operating in the VHF band (117,975 MHz to 137,000 MHz).
The scope of the present document is limited to ground based stations.
NOTE 1: The VDL Mode 2 can be used as an Air/Ground sub-network of the Aeronautical Telecommunication
Network (ATN) using a band with AM(R)S spectrum allocation.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive), article 3.2,
which states that ". radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to
terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as 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 R&TTE Directive as well as essential requirements under the Single European Sky
Interoperability Regulation [i.3] (as amended) and related implementing rules may apply to equipment within the scope
of the present document.
NOTE 2: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in the R&TTE Directive [i.2] and the
following apply:
adjacent channel power: amount of the modulated RF signal power transmitted outside of the assigned channel
NOTE: Adjacent channel power includes discrete spurious, signal sidebands, and noise density (including phase
noise) at the transmitter output.
adjacent channel rejection: receiver's ability to demodulate the desired signal and meet the uncorrected BER
requirement in the presence of an interfering signal in an adjacent channel
NOTE: The ratio (in dB) between the adjacent interfering signal level and the desired signal level necessary to
achieve the specified minimum uncorrected BER, is the Adjacent Channel Rejection (ACR) ratio.
Aeronautical Mobile Service (AMS): mobile service between ground based stations and airborne stations, or between
aircraft stations, in which survival craft stations may participate
average transmitter output power: average power supplied to the antenna transmission line by a transmitter during an
interval of time sufficiently long, compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation, taken under
normal operating conditions
Bit Error Rate (BER): ratio between the number of erroneous bits received and the total number of bits received
NOTE: The uncorrected BER represents the BER without the benefit of Forward Error Correction (FEC).
Co-Channel Interference (CCI): capability of a receiver to demodulate the desired signal and achieve the minimum
specified BER performance in the presence of an unwanted signal at the same assigned channel
NOTE: The ratio (in dB) between the wanted signal level and the unwanted signal level is the co-channel
interference ratio.
conducted measurements: measurements which are made using a direct RF connection to the equipment under test
data rate: with a nominal data rate of 31 500 bits/s, the VDL Mode 2 symbol rate is expected to be 10 500 symbols/s
