3 Definition of terms, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Terms
For the purposes of the present document, the terms given in Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and the following apply:
amplitude imbalance: error caused by different amplification of the I and Q signals
antenna port: port of an apparatus which is designed, in normal operation, to be connected to an antenna using coaxial
cable
broadcasting service: radiocommunication service in which the transmissions are intended for direct reception by the
general public
NOTE: This service may include sound transmissions, television transmissions or other types of transmission.
channel bandwidth: frequency band of defined width (as a multiple of the carrier grid) including safety margin for
operation on adjacent channels, located symmetrically around a carrier frequency in the carrier grid
dBc: decibels relative to the unmodulated carrier power of the emission
NOTE: In the cases which do not have a carrier, for example in some digital modulation schemes where the
carrier is not accessible for measurement, the reference level equivalent to dBc is decibels relative to the
mean power P.
DRM transmitter: device comprising a DRM exciter, RF amplifier and RF system filter
enclosure port: physical boundary of the apparatus through which electromagnetic fields may radiate or impinge
NOTE: In the case of integral antenna equipment, this port is inseparable from the antenna port.
harmonic: component of order greater than 1 of the Fourier series of a periodic quantity
harmonic number: integral number given by the ratio of the frequency of a harmonic to the fundamental frequency
NOTE: Second harmonic = 2 × fundamental frequency.
intermodulation products: unwanted frequencies resulting from intermodulation between carriers or harmonics of
emission, or between any oscillations generated to produce the carrier
mean power: average power supplied to the antenna port by a transmitter during an interval of time sufficiently long
compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation envelope taken under normal operating conditions
necessary bandwidth: width of the frequency band which is sufficient to ensure the transmission of information at the
rate and with the quality required under specified conditions
out-of-band emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies immediately outside the necessary bandwidth which
results from the modulation process, but excluding spurious emissions
quadrature error: error caused by phase shift between the I and Q signals
rated output power: mean power that the transmitter delivers at its antenna port under specified conditions of
operation
reference bandwidth: bandwidth in which the emission level is specified
RF system filter: filter connected to the output of the RF amplifier to control output spectrum
NOTE: The RF system filter may be internal or external to the transmitter casing.
spurious emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of
which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information
NOTE: Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and
frequency conversion products but exclude out-of-band emissions.

4.1 Environmental profile
The technical requirements of the present document apply under the environmental profile for operation of the
equipment, which shall be in accordance with its intended use. The equipment shall comply with all the technical
requirements of the present document at all times when operating within the boundary limits of the operational
environmental profile defined by its intended use.
4.2 Conformance requirements

The rated output power is the mean power that the transmitter shall deliver at its antenna port.
4.2.1.2 Limit
The mean output power shall be within -0,5 dB of the rated output power under normal operating conditions as defined
by the manufacturer.

4.2.1.3 Conformance
Conformance tests as defined in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out.
4.2.2 Frequency stability
4.2.2.1 Definition
The frequency stability of an emission is the variation of frequency against a predetermined time scale.

4.2.2.2.1 DRM transmitters operating below 30 MHz
The stability of the centre frequency shall not deviate more than 10 Hz from its nominal value.

Conformance tests as defined in clause 5.3.2 shall be carried out.
4.2.3 Spurious emissions
4.2.3.1 Definition
Emission on a frequency or on frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of which may be
reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information. Spurious emissions include harmonic
emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products but exclude out-of-band
emissions.
For the purposes of the present document spurious emissions are emissions at frequencies outside 500 % of the
necessary bandwidth.
The reference bandwidth used for spurious emissions measurements shall be as follows:
• 1 kHz between 9 kHz and 150 kHz;
• 10 kHz between 150 kHz and 30 MHz;
• 100 kHz between 30 MHz and 1 GHz;

3 Definition of terms, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Terms
For the purposes of the present document, the terms given in Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and the following apply:
amplitude imbalance: error caused by different amplification of the I and Q signals
antenna port: port of an apparatus which is designed, in normal operation, to be connected to an antenna using coaxial
cable
broadcasting service: radiocommunication service in which the transmissions are intended for direct reception by the
general public
NOTE: This service may include sound transmissions, television transmissions or other types of transmission.
channel bandwidth: frequency band of defined width (as a multiple of the carrier grid) including safety margin for
operation on adjacent channels, located symmetrically around a carrier frequency in the carrier grid
dBc: decibels relative to the unmodulated carrier power of the emission
NOTE: In the cases which do not have a carrier, for example in some digital modulation schemes where the
carrier is not accessible for measurement, the reference level equivalent to dBc is decibels relative to the
mean power P.
DRM transmitter: device comprising a DRM exciter, RF amplifier and RF system filter
enclosure port: physical boundary of the apparatus through which electromagnetic fields may radiate or impinge
NOTE: In the case of integral antenna equipment, this port is inseparable from the antenna port.
harmonic: component of order greater than 1 of the Fourier series of a periodic quantity
harmonic number: integral number given by the ratio of the frequency of a harmonic to the fundamental frequency
NOTE: Second harmonic = 2 × fundamental frequency.
intermodulation products: unwanted frequencies resulting from intermodulation between carriers or harmonics of
emission, or between any oscillations generated to produce the carrier
mean power: average power supplied to the antenna port by a transmitter during an interval of time sufficiently long
compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation envelope taken under normal operating conditions
necessary bandwidth: width of the frequency band which is sufficient to ensure the transmission of information at the
rate and with the quality required under specified conditions
out-of-band emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies immediately outside the necessary bandwidth which
results from the modulation process, but excluding spurious emissions
quadrature error: error caused by phase shift between the I and Q signals
rated output power: mean power that the transmitter delivers at its antenna port under specified conditions of
operation
reference bandwidth: bandwidth in which the emission level is specified
RF system filter: filter connected to the output of the RF amplifier to control output spectrum
NOTE: The RF system filter may be internal or external to the transmitter casing.
spurious emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of
which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information
NOTE: Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and
frequency conversion products but exclude out-of-band emissions.
