SIST EN 303 135 V2.1.1:2016

• Abstract:

  The present document applies to X-band radar sensors intended for use in Vessel Traffic Services (VTS), Coastal; Surveillance (CS) or Harbour Radar Systems with the following characteristics:; • Utilizing modulated or unmodulated pulses.; • Transmitter Peak Envelope Power up to 100 kW.; • The transceiver-antenna connection is using a hollow metallic rectangular waveguide.; • The antenna is rotating, waveguide- based and passive.; • At the transceiver output an RF-circulator is used.; NOTE 1: Since transceiver and antenna are hollow metallic rectangular waveguide based, the frequency range for measurements that needs to be addressed covers 6,56 GHz to 26 GHz. The lower limit of this frequency range is obtained as cut-off frequency of the combination of WR112/R84 taper section and a WR90/R100 Waveguide as defined by IEC 60153-2 [i.2]. The upper limit corresponds to the upper limit stated in ERC/Recommendation 74-01 [i.4]. Other types of waveguide may be used by the same principles to obtain complete measurement coverage of the frequency range of the output flange of the equipment under test.; NOTE 2: Since at the transceiver output an RF circulator is used, it is assumed that the transceiver characteristics remain independent from the antenna.; NOTE 3: According to article 5 of the ITU Radio Regulations [i.5] there are a number of bands between 8,5 GHz and 10 GHz that are allocated to Radiolocation service. There are national deviations to the detailed band usages, but the basic spectrum usage regulation is the same.; The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that "...radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" [i.1].; 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 Radio Equipment Directive [i.1] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document.

Introduction
The present document intends to present a harmonized way of proving compliance to the essential requirements of the
RE Directive [i.1] for important types of radar like Coastal Surveillance (CS), Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) and
possibly harbour radars.
The emission limits implemented arise from ECC/Recommendation (02)05 [i.3] and ERC/Recommendation
74-01 [i.4].
The test methods used arise from Recommendation ITU-R M.1177-4 [2] and Recommendation ITU-R SM.1541-5 [1].
NOTE: The present document is closely related to ETSI EN 303 213-6-1 [i.11] which covers essential
requirements for radars used in airport SMGCS systems, but which use largely the same type of radar
technology.
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the RE Directive [i.1]. The modular
structure is shown in ETSI EG 201 399 [i.7].

1 Scope
The present document applies to X-band radar sensors intended for use in Vessel Traffic Services (VTS), Coastal
Surveillance (CS) or Harbour Radar Systems with the following characteristics:
• Utilizing modulated or unmodulated pulses.
• Transmitter Peak Envelope Power up to 100 kW.
• The transceiver-antenna connection is using a hollow metallic rectangular waveguide.
• The antenna is rotating, waveguide- based and passive.
• At the transceiver output an RF-circulator is used.
NOTE 1: Since transceiver and antenna are hollow metallic rectangular waveguide based, the frequency range for
measurements that needs to be addressed covers 6,56 GHz to 26 GHz. The lower limit of this frequency
range is obtained as cut-off frequency of the combination of WR112/R84 taper section and a WR90/R100
Waveguide as defined by IEC 60153-2 [i.2]. The upper limit corresponds to the upper limit stated in
ERC/Recommendation 74-01 [i.4]. Other types of waveguide may be used by the same principles to
obtain complete measurement coverage of the frequency range of the output flange of the equipment
under test.
NOTE 2: Since at the transceiver output an RF circulator is used, it is assumed that the transceiver characteristics
remain independent from the antenna.
NOTE 3: According to article 5 of the ITU Radio Regulations [i.5] there are a number of bands between 8,5 GHz
and 10 GHz that are allocated to Radiolocation service. There are national deviations to the detailed band
usages, but the basic spectrum usage regulation is the same.

The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that ".radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both
effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" [i.1].
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 Radio Equipment Directive [i.1] may apply to equipment within the scope of the
present document.

Executive Summary The present document covers the essential requirements for efficient use of radio spectrum by Coastal Surveillance, Vessel Traffic Services and Harbour Radars (CS/VTS/HR) in the bands between 8 500 MHz to 10 000 MHz using pulsed signals and a transmitting power up to 100 kW. The present document includes necessary changes due to adaption to the new Radio Equipment Directive [i.1]. SIST EN 303 135 V2.1.1:2016

ETSI ETSI EN 303 135 V2.1.1 (2016-06) 6 Introduction The present document intends to present a harmonized way of proving compliance to the essential requirements of the RE Directive [i.1] for important types of radar like Coastal Surveillance (CS), Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) and possibly harbour radars. The emission limits implemented arise from ECC/Recommendation (02)05
[i.3] and ERC/Recommendation 74-01 [i.4]. The test methods used arise from Recommendation ITU-R M.1177-4 [2] and Recommendation ITU-R SM.1541-5 [1]. NOTE: The present document is closely related to ETSI EN 303 213-6-1 [i.11] which covers essential requirements for radars used in airport SMGCS systems, but which use largely the same type of radar technology. The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the RE Directive [i.1]. The modular structure is shown in ETSI EG 201 399 [i.7].
ETSI ETSI EN 303 135 V2.1.1 (2016-06) 7 1 Scope The present document applies to X-band radar sensors intended for use in Vessel Traffic Services (VTS), Coastal Surveillance (CS) or Harbour Radar Systems with the following characteristics: • Utilizing modulated or unmodulated pulses. • Transmitter Peak Envelope Power up to 100 kW. • The transceiver-antenna connection is using a hollow metallic rectangular waveguide. • The antenna is rotating, waveguide- based and passive. • At the transceiver output an RF-circulator is used. NOTE 1: Since transceiver and antenna are hollow metallic rectangular waveguide based, the frequency range for measurements that needs to be addressed covers 6,56 GHz to 26 GHz. The lower limit of this frequency range is obtained as cut-off frequency of the combination of WR112/R84 taper section and a WR90/R100 Waveguide as defined by IEC 60153-2 [i.2]. The upper limit corresponds to the upper limit stated in ERC/Recommendation 74-01 [i.4]. Other types of waveguide may be used by the same principles to obtain complete measurement coverage of the frequency range of the output flange of the equipment under test. NOTE 2: Since at the transceiver output an RF circulator is used, it is assumed that the transceiver characteristics remain independent from the antenna. NOTE 3: According to article 5 of the ITU Radio Regulations [i.5] there are a number of bands between 8,5 GHz and 10 GHz that are allocated to Radiolocation service. There are national deviations to the detailed band usages, but the basic spectrum usage regulation is the same. Table 1: Radiolocation service frequency bands [GHz] 8 500 - 8 550 8 550 - 8 650 8 650 - 8 750 8 750 - 8 850 8 850 - 9 000 9 000 - 9 200 9 200 - 9 300 9 300 - 9 500 9 500 - 9 800 9 800 - 9 900 9 900 - 10 000
The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that ".radio equipment shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" [i.1]. 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 Radio Equipment Directive [i.1] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. 2 References 2.1 Normative references References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.
