Radijska oprema CB - Harmonizirani standard, ki zajema bistvene zahteve člena 3.2 direktive 2014/53/EU

Ta dokument zajema tehnične zahteve za oddajnike in sprejemnike, ki se uporabljajo v postajah radijske opreme CB s kotno modulacijo, dvobočnim (DSB) in/ali enobočnim (SSB) prenosom, ki deluje v celotnem frekvenčnem pasu ali v delu frekvenčnega pasu od 26,960 do 27,410 MHz z razmikom 10 kHz med kanali
ter je namenjena za analogni govor in/ali prenos podatkov.
Delovanje radijske opreme CB je v skladu s Sklepom Odbora za elektronske komunikacije (11)03 o usklajeni uporabi frekvenc za radijsko opremo CB [i.2].
Ta dokument se lahko uporablja za katero koli opremo, ki upošteva nacionalne predpise o CB, ki dovoljujejo uporabo kanalov zunaj frekvenc nosilcev, navedenih v tabeli 1, v frekvenčnem območju od 26 do 28 MHz.
Ta dokument zajema naslednje vrste opreme:
– bazno postajo (oprema z antenskim priključkom);
– mobilno postajo (oprema z antenskim priključkom);
– prenosne postaje:
a) z antenskim priključkom; ali
b) brez zunanjega antenskega priključka, vendar s stalnim ali začasnim notranjim 50-ohmskim
radijsko frekvenčnim (RF) priključkom, ki omogoča dostop do izhoda oddajnika in vhoda sprejemnika.
Ta dokument ne zajema prenosne opreme brez zunanjega ali notranjega radijsko frekvenčnega priključka in brez možnosti namestitve začasnega notranjega 50-ohmskega priključka (vgrajene antene).
Ta dokument vsebuje zahteve, s katerimi se dokazuje, da »... je radijska oprema sestavljena tako, da učinkovito uporablja in tudi podpira učinkovito uporabo radijskega spektra, tako da ne pride do škodljivih motenj«, ter da »... radijska oprema podpira določene funkcije, ki zagotavljajo dostop do storitev za nujne primere«.
Poleg tega dokumenta se za opremo na področju uporabe tega dokumenta uporabljajo tudi drugi standardi EN, ki določajo tehnične zahteve v zvezi z bistvenimi zahtevami iz drugih delov 3. člena direktive o radijski opremi [i.4].

4 General and operational requirements
4.0 General
Equipment shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is intended to operate.
The provider or supplier shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power requirements
as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
The equipment shall be tested to the present document using the type of modulation signal defined in clause 6.5 that is
relevant to the operational mode being tested, i.e. angle modulation, DSB or SSB. Angle modulation is considered as
equivalent to frequency modulation (FM) with pre-emphasis in transmit mode and de-emphasis in receive mode.
Equipment capable of using two or three types of modulation among angle modulation, DSB and SSB shall be tested to
the present document using the respective type of modulation for each mode (see clause 6.5).
4.1 Choice of model for testing
4.1.0 General
Stand alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests to be performed
on the equipment configured with that combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have an internal permanent 50 Ω connector then a
second sample of the equipment shall be used with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
ETSI
11 Draft ETSI EN 300 433 V2.1.0 (2016-02)
Tests shall be carried out on the highest and lowest channel within the switching range of the equipment and on a
channel near the middle of the switching range. The switching range of the receiver and transmitter shall be declared by
the supplier. The switching range is the maximum frequency range over which the receiver or the transmitter can be
operated without reprogramming or realignment. In the case of equipment fitted with one channel only, all tests are
carried out on that channel. In the case of equipment fitted with two channels, all tests are carried out on both channels.
4.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary test signal sources, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the equipment
to be tested.
4.1.2 Declarations by the provider
All necessary setting up instructions and other product information shall be made available with the equipment to be
tested, in accordance with article 10.8 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.4].
4.2 Testing of equipment that does not have an external 50 Ω
RF connector (integral antenna equipment)
Where equipment has an internal 50 Ω connector it shall be permitted to perform the tests at this connector.
Equipment may also have a temporary internal 50 Ω connector installed for the purposes of testing.
No connection shall be made to any internal permanent or temporary antenna connector during the performance of
radiated emissions measurements, unless such action forms an essential part of the normal intended operation of the
equipment, as declared by the supplier.
4.3 Mechanical and electrical design
4.3.1 General
The equipment should be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and
with the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.3.2 Controls

4 General and operational requirements
4.0 General
Equipment shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is intended to operate.
The provider or supplier shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power requirements
as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
The equipment shall be tested to the present document using the type of modulation signal defined in clause 6.5 that is
relevant to the operational mode being tested, i.e. angle modulation, DSB or SSB. Angle modulation is considered as
equivalent to frequency modulation (FM) with pre-emphasis in transmit mode and de-emphasis in receive mode.
Equipment capable of using two or three types of modulation among angle modulation, DSB and SSB shall be tested to
the present document using the respective type of modulation for each mode (see clause 6.5).
4.1 Choice of model for testing
4.1.0 General
Stand alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests to be performed
on the equipment configured with that combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have an internal permanent 50 Ω connector then a
second sample of the equipment shall be used with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 300 433 V2.1.1 (2016-05)
Tests shall be carried out on the highest and lowest channel within the switching range of the equipment and on a
channel near the middle of the switching range. The switching range of the receiver and transmitter shall be declared by
the supplier. The switching range is the maximum frequency range over which the receiver or the transmitter can be
operated without reprogramming or realignment. In the case of equipment fitted with one channel only, all tests are
carried out on that channel. In the case of equipment fitted with two channels, all tests are carried out on both channels.
4.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary test signal sources, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the equipment
to be tested.
4.1.2 Declarations by the provider
All necessary setting up instructions and other product information shall be made available with the equipment to be
tested, in accordance with article 10.8 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.4].
4.2 Testing of equipment that does not have an external 50 Ω
RF connector (integral antenna equipment)
Where equipment has an internal 50 Ω connector it shall be permitted to perform the tests at this connector.
Equipment may also have a temporary internal 50 Ω connector installed for the purposes of testing.
No connection shall be made to any internal permanent or temporary antenna connector during the performance of
radiated emissions measurements, unless such action forms an essential part of the normal intended operation of the
equipment, as declared by the supplier.
4.3 Mechanical and electrical design
4.3.1 General
The equipment should be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and
with the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.3.2 Controls
Those controls which if maladjusted might increase the interfering potentialities of the equipment shall not be
accessible to the user.
4.3.3 PTT and voice- activated switch
Switching between the transmit and receive mode of operation shall only be possible by means of a non-locking PTT
switch or by means of a non-locking voice-activated switch. If a voice-activated switch is used it shall not respond to
ambient acoustic noise.
For SSB CB equipment with a microphone jack, the threshold level adjustment shall be accessible to the user. For
DSB/angle modulated and/or CB equipment with a microphone jack, the threshold level adjustment may be accessible
to the user.
All adjustments accessible by the user that have influence on the threshold shall be safe against unintended change of
setting.
4.3.4 Combination with other equipment
The equipment shall not be combined with any other form of transmitting or receiving equipment, which can produce
unwanted modulation of the transmitter. The equipment shall not be provided with any terminals or other connection
points, internal or external, for modulating sources other than those required for either a separate or a built-in
microphone, or for selective calling or data transmission devices.
Terminals or other connecting points are permitted for the connection of external devices that shall not modulate the
transmitters (e.g. a voice synthesizer device to give an aural indication of channel).

1 Scope
The present document covers the technical requirements for transmitters and receivers used in stations of angle
modulated, Double Side Band (DSB) modulated and/or Single Side Band (SSB) modulated Citizens' Band (CB) radio
equipment operating in all or part of the frequency band 26,960 MHz to 27,410 MHz with a channel spacing of 10 kHz,
and intended for analogue speech and/or data transmission.
Citizens' Band radio equipment operation is in accordance with ECC Decision (11)03 on the harmonised use of
frequencies for Citizens' Band (CB) radio equipment [i.2].
Any equipment using national regulations on Citizens' Band (CB) permitting the use of channels outside of the carrier
frequencies shown in table 1 within the frequency range from 26 MHz to 28 MHz can use the present document.
The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows:
- Base station: equipment fitted with antenna connector.
- Mobile station: equipment fitted with antenna connector.
- Hand portable stations:
a) either fitted with an antenna connector; or
b) without an external antenna connector but fitted with a permanent internal or a temporary internal 50 Ω
RF connector which allows access to the transmitter output and the receiver input.
Hand portable station equipment without an external or internal Radio Frequency (RF) connector and without the possibility
of having a temporary internal 50 Ω RF connector is not covered by the present document (integral antenna equipment).

4 General and operational requirements
4.0 General
Equipment shall fulfil the requirements of the present document on all frequencies over which it is intended to operate.
The provider or supplier shall declare the frequency ranges, the range of operating conditions and power requirements
as applicable, to establish the appropriate test conditions.
The equipment shall be tested to the present document using the type of modulation signal defined in clause 6.5 that is
relevant to the operational mode being tested, i.e. angle modulation, DSB or SSB. Angle modulation is considered as
equivalent to frequency modulation (FM) with pre-emphasis in transmit mode and de-emphasis in receive mode.
Equipment capable of using two or three types of modulation among angle modulation, DSB and SSB shall be tested to
the present document using the respective type of modulation for each mode (see clause 6.5).
4.1 Choice of model for testing
4.1.0 General
Stand alone equipment shall be complete with any ancillary equipment needed for testing.
If an equipment has several optional features, considered not to affect the RF parameters then the tests to be performed
on the equipment configured with that combination of features considered to be the most complex.
Where practicable, equipment to be tested shall provide a 50 Ω connector for conducted RF power level measurements.
In the case of integral antenna equipment, if the equipment does not have an internal permanent 50 Ω connector then a
second sample of the equipment shall be used with a temporary antenna connector fitted to facilitate testing.
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 300 433 V2.1.1 (2016-05)
Tests shall be carried out on the highest and lowest channel within the switching range of the equipment and on a
channel near the middle of the switching range. The switching range of the receiver and transmitter shall be declared by
the supplier. The switching range is the maximum frequency range over which the receiver or the transmitter can be
operated without reprogramming or realignment. In the case of equipment fitted with one channel only, all tests are
carried out on that channel. In the case of equipment fitted with two channels, all tests are carried out on both channels.
4.1.1 Auxiliary test equipment
All necessary test signal sources, setting up instructions and other product information shall accompany the equipment
to be tested.
4.1.2 Declarations by the provider
All necessary setting up instructions and other product information shall be made available with the equipment to be
tested, in accordance with article 10.8 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.4].
4.2 Testing of equipment that does not have an external 50 Ω
RF connector (integral antenna equipment)
Where equipment has an internal 50 Ω connector it shall be permitted to perform the tests at this connector.
Equipment may also have a temporary internal 50 Ω connector installed for the purposes of testing.
No connection shall be made to any internal permanent or temporary antenna connector during the performance of
radiated emissions measurements, unless such action forms an essential part of the normal intended operation of the
equipment, as declared by the supplier.
4.3 Mechanical and electrical design
4.3.1 General
The equipment should be designed, constructed and manufactured in accordance with good engineering practice, and
with the aim of minimizing harmful interference to other equipment and services.
4.3.2 Controls
Those controls which if maladjusted might increase the interfering potentialities of the equipment shall not be
accessible to the user.
4.3.3 PTT and voice- activated switch
Switching between the transmit and receive mode of operation shall only be possible by means of a non-locking PTT
switch or by means of a non-locking voice-activated switch. If a voice-activated switch is used it shall not respond to
ambient acoustic noise.
For SSB CB equipment with a microphone jack, the threshold level adjustment shall be accessible to the user. For
DSB/angle modulated and/or CB equipment with a microphone jack, the threshold level adjustment may be accessible
to the user.
