Introduction
The main field of application of Point-to-Multipoint (P-MP) systems is to provide access to both public and private
networks (Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), Private Data Network (PDN), .). By means of P-MP systems
the network service area may be extended to cover both distant and scattered subscriber locations; and the systems may
be applied to build new access networks covering both urban and rural areas.
Subscribers are offered the full range of services by the particular public or private network. Subscribers have access to
these services by means of the various standardized user network interfaces (2-wire loop, new data services).
P-MP systems provide standard network interfaces and transparently connect subscribers to the appropriate network
node. These systems allow a service to be connected to a number of subscribers ranging from a few to several thousand,
and over a wide range of distances.
P-MP systems are generally configured as Pre-Assigned Multiple Access (PAMA) radio systems or as Demand
Assigned Multiple Access (DAMA) radio systems.
The essential features of a typical P-MP DAMA radio system are:
• efficient use of the radio spectrum;
• concentration;
• transparency.

Radio is often the ideal way of obtaining communications at low cost and almost independent of distance, and difficult
topography. Moreover, a small number of sites is required for these installations, thus facilitating rapid implementation
and minimizing maintenance requirements of the systems.
Concentration means that m subscribers can share n radio channels (m being larger than n), allowing better use to be
made of the available frequency spectrum and at a lower equipment cost. The term "multi-access" means that every
subscriber has access to every channel (instead of a fixed assignment as in most multiplex systems). When a call is
initiated an available channel is allocated to it. When the call is terminated, the channel is released for another call.
Concentration requires the use of distributed intelligent control which in turn allows many other operation and
maintenance functions to be added.
Transparency means that the exchange and the subscriber equipment communicate with each other without being aware
of the radio link.

1 Scope
1.1 Applications
The scope of the present document covers the following typical P-MP applications, delivered directly or indirectly, or in
any superimposed transport network layer:
• voice;
• fax;
• voiceband data;
• telex;
• data up to 64 kbit/s;
• ISDN;
• Internet Access.
1.2 Frequency bands and channel arrangements
The present document covers Fixed Service bands at 1,5 GHz, 2,2 GHz, 2,4 GHz and 2,6 GHz.
The frequency plans for the 1,5 GHz, 2,2 GHz and 2,6 GHz bands are given in CEPT T/R 13-01 [7] and ITU-R
Recommendation F.1098-1 [20]. For the 2,4 GHz band, the ITU-R Recommendation F.701-2 [8] is applicable.
The present document may cover equipment which uses either Frequency Division Duplexing or Time Division
Duplexing.
NOTE: As with other point-to-multipoint standards, attention should be given to assigning spectrum so as to
allow different systems to operate in adjacent assigned frequencies without unacceptable mutual
interference. This is the responsibility of the regulatory authorities that are advised to note any guidelines
produced by CEPT, particularly those with reference to spectrum where unlike duplex methods are to be
used.
1.3 Access method
The present document covers Frequency Hopping - Code Division Multiple Access (FH-CDMA) systems.
NOTE: The method described in the present document applies slow frequency hopping TR 101 274 [26], with a
hopping period up to 400 ms. During the dwell time, several different links in the same area may operate
on different sub-channels in a manner which resembles the characteristics and properties of FDMA
systems. The sub-channel supporting each link may be further subdivided using frequency division, time
division or a combination of both techniques. (The terms "hopping period", "dwell time" and
"sub-channel" are defined in clause 3.1).
1.4 Compatibility
The present document is not intended to ensure that a Central Station (CS) from one manufacturer will inter-operate
with a Terminal Station (TS) or Repeater Station (RS) from another manufacturer.

3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document the following terms and definitions apply.
Radio Frequency channel (RF channel): partition of a radio frequency band which may be assigned by the authorities
in accordance with CEPT or ITU-R Recommendations on channel arrangement (loosely called "an individual channel"
in CEPT T/R 13-01 [7]) (see figure 1)
channel spacing: separation between the centre frequencies of neighbouring RF channels. In cases where the channel
spacing is not higher than the manufacturer's declared sub-channel bandwidth, the channel spacing is defined as the
minimum contiguous segment of bandwidth made available to the FH-CDMA system
assigned band: aggregation of all RF channels assigned to a FH-CDMA system. The assigned band may consist of
several non-contiguous RF channels (see figure 1)
sub-channel: integer sub-division of the RF channel(s) as determined by the equipment manufacturer (see figure 1)
Frequency hopping (FH): spread spectrum technique whereby individual radio links are continually switched from
one sub-channel to another. Such links are not constrained to a single RF channel
dwell time: duration of a transmission on a particular sub-channel
transition time: period between successive transmissions on different sub-channels during which no transmission is
made
hopping sequence: sequence of sub-channels which a particular link follows
hopping period: time between the starts of successive transmissions on a different sub-channel. This is the sum of
dwell time and transition time
slow frequency hopping: FH technique where the hopping period is larger than the symbol period
round trip delay: sum of the delays from points F to G and from G to F in figure 2, including any repeaters if
appropriate

SIST EN 301 179 V1.2.1:2003
13 ETSI EN 301 179 V1.2.1 (2001-02)
The central station performs the interconnection with the network node (local exchange) carrying out a concentration
function by sharing the total number of available channels in the system. The central station is linked by microwave
transmission paths to each TS either directly or via one or more RS.
Whenever an existing digital transmission link is available, the network implementation can be optimized by separating
the CCS, installed at the exchange site, and the CRS.
The general characteristics which are typical for P-MP systems are considered in the present document. These
characteristics have been categorized under four headings.
1) System characteristics;
2) Radio characteristics;
3) Types of subscriber equipment and network exchange interface;
4) Power supply and environmental characteristics.
