ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standard for radio equipment and services - Part 50: Specific conditions for Cellular Communication Base Station (BS), repeater and ancillary equipment - Harmonised Standard for ElectroMagnetic Compatibility

The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for the following equipment types:
1) digital cellular base station equipment, including BS with antenna ports and BS without antenna ports;
2) repeaters;
3) associated ancillary equipment.
Including individual and combinations of technologies listed in table 1.
Technical specifications related to conducted emission EMC requirements below 9 kHz on the AC mains port of radio equipment are not included in the present document.
NOTE 1: Such technical specifications are normally found in the relevant product family standards for AC mains powered equipment (e.g. EN 61000-3-2 [i.16] and EN 61000-3-3 [i.17]). Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions from the enclosure port of Base Station (BS), combinations of radio and associated ancillary equipment or repeaters are not included in the present document. Such technical specifications are found in the relevant product standards for the effective use of the radio spectrum. The environmental classification and the emission and immunity requirements used in the present document are as stated in ETSI EN 301 489-1 [1], except for any special conditions included in the present document.
NOTE 2: The relationship between the present document and essential requirements of article 3.1(b) of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] is given in Annex A.
