ETSI ETSI EN 303 520 V1.1.1 (2018-07) 6 Introduction The present document is aiming to cover radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the EU's Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2]. The present document specifies conformance requirements for the Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Capsule Endoscopy SRD application, which includes Capsule Camera (CCam) acting as transmitter and associated Data Recorder (DR) receiver devices, as meant by ETSI TR 103 451 [i.3]. The CCam is designed to wirelessly transmit recorded images from inside patient's gastrointestinal tract to the DR receiver, utilizing a single wideband radio channel occupying the entire designated band 430 MHz to 440 MHz. It is intended that this band will be harmonised for European-wide usage by Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Endoscopy application through relevant CEPT and EU normative documents in the field of SRD spectrum regulation, such as CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.4]. CCam transmitters will utilize miniature integral antenna encapsulated within its pill-shaped enclosure. The intended use of the CCam transmitter is inside the human body. DR receivers will use either integral antenna or dedicated external antenna implemented in the form of skin patch or belt. Such dedicated external antenna would ensure optimal reception of weak radio signals by keeping antenna in direct proximity to the patient's body in the area closest to internal passage of CCam. These devices would offer opportunity of performing medical endoscopy-type examination of the entire human gastrointestinal tract including the small intestine and colon. Thanks to simple application with minimized risks and side effects, while providing the unique ability to visualize the complete gastrointestinal tract, its use would be highly beneficial and attractive to patients and doctors. The present document is structured as follows: • Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description of the types of equipment covered by the present document and the definitions of terms, symbols and abbreviations used. • Clause 4 specifies the requirements and limits applicable to CCam transmitter and DR receiver. • Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 specify the test and general conditions for testing of the equipment. • Clause 5.3 specifies the methods of measurement for the parameters specified in clause 4. • Annex A (informative) provides an overview of the relationship between the present document and the essential requirements of the RED [i.2]. • Annex B (normative) describes a human torso simulator test fixture to be used for radiated measurements. • Annex C (normative) describes the Full Anechoic Room test site configuration for radiated measurements.

Introduction
The present document is aiming to cover radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the EU's
Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2].
The present document specifies conformance requirements for the Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Capsule
Endoscopy SRD application, which includes Capsule Camera (CCam) acting as transmitter and associated Data
Recorder (DR) receiver devices, as meant by ETSI TR 103 451 [i.3]. The CCam is designed to wirelessly transmit
recorded images from inside patient's gastrointestinal tract to the DR receiver, utilizing a single wideband radio channel
occupying the entire designated band 430 MHz to 440 MHz. It is intended that this band will be harmonised for
European-wide usage by Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Endoscopy application through relevant CEPT and EU
normative documents in the field of SRD spectrum regulation, such as CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.4].
CCam transmitters will utilize miniature integral antenna encapsulated within its pill-shaped enclosure. The intended
use of the CCam transmitter is inside the human body.
DR receivers will use either integral antenna or dedicated external antenna implemented in the form of skin patch or
belt. Such dedicated external antenna would ensure optimal reception of weak radio signals by keeping antenna in direct
proximity to the patient's body in the area closest to internal passage of CCam.
These devices would offer opportunity of performing medical endoscopy-type examination of the entire human
gastrointestinal tract including the small intestine and colon. Thanks to simple application with minimized risks and side
effects, while providing the unique ability to visualize the complete gastrointestinal tract, its use would be highly
beneficial and attractive to patients and doctors.
The present document is structured as follows:
• Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description of the types of equipment covered by the present document
and the definitions of terms, symbols and abbreviations used.
• Clause 4 specifies the requirements and limits applicable to CCam transmitter and DR receiver.
• Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 specify the test and general conditions for testing of the equipment.
• Clause 5.3 specifies the methods of measurement for the parameters specified in clause 4.
• Annex A (informative) provides an overview of the relationship between the present document and the
essential requirements of the RED [i.2].
• Annex B (normative) describes a human torso simulator test fixture to be used for radiated measurements.
• Annex C (normative) describes the Full Anechoic Room test site configuration for radiated measurements.

6 Draft ETSI EN 303 520 V1.0.0 (2017-07)
Introduction
The present document is aiming to cover radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the EU's
Radio Equipment Directive (RED) [i.2].
The present document specifies conformance requirements for the Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Capsule
Endoscopy SRD application, which includes Capsule Camera (CCam) acting as transmitter and associated Data
Recorder (DR) receiver devices [i.3]. The CCam is designed to wirelessly transmit recorded images from inside
patient's gastrointestinal tract to the DR receiver, utilizing a single wideband radio channel occupying the entire
designated band 430 MHz to 440 MHz. It is intended that this band will be harmonised for European-wide usage by
Ultra Low Power Wireless Medical Endoscopy application through relevant CEPT and EU normative documents in the
field of SRD spectrum regulation, such as CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.4].
CCam transmitters will utilize miniature integral antenna encapsulated within its pill-shaped enclosure. DR receivers
will use either integral antenna or dedicated external antenna implemented in the form of skin patch or belt. Such
dedicated external antenna would ensure optimal reception of weak radio signals by keeping antenna in direct proximity
to the patient's body in the area closest to internal passage of CCam.
These devices would offer opportunity of performing medical endoscopy-type examination of the entire human
gastrointestinal tract including the small intestine and colon. Thanks to simple application with minimized risks and side
effects, while providing the unique ability to visualize the complete gastrointestinal tract, its use would be highly
beneficial and attractive to patients and doctors.
The present document is structured as follows:
• Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description of the types of equipment covered by the present document
and the definitions of terms, symbols and abbreviations used.
• Clause 4 specifies the requirements and limits applicable to CCam transmitter and DR receiver.
• Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 specify the test and general conditions for testing of the equipment.
• Clause 5.3 specifies the methods of measurement for the parameters specified in clause 4.
• Annex A (informative) provides an overview of the relationship between the present document and the
essential requirements of the RED [i.2].
• Annex B (normative) describes a human torso simulator test fixture to be used for radiated measurements.
• Annex C (normative) describes the Full Anechoic Room test site configuration for radiated measurements.

1 Scope
The present document aims at providing requirements to demonstrate that the SRD devices to be used for Ultra Low
Power Wireless Medical Capsule Endoscopy application: CCam transmitters and associated DR receivers operating in
the designated frequency band 430 MHz to 440 MHz [i.3], can be presumed to conform to the essential requirements of
article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.2] under the conditions identified in Annex A.
A possible return (downlink) RF transmission channel from DR to CCam for command and control signalling, if and
when implemented, will be outside the scope of the present document.
NOTE: The relationship between the present document and essential requirements of article 3.2 of Directive
2014/53/EU is given in Annex A.
