Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) - Part 4: Harmonized EN for GSM Repeaters covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
1) Repeaters for GSM;
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given in table 1-1.
NOTE: In some circumstances, for instance when an operator (or more than one operator who co-ordinate the use of repeaters), is not allocated a complete band as defined in table 1-1, it may be necessary to restrict the frequency range of operations of repeaters. In these circumstances, the test of "Gain outside operating band" in annex C may be used to verify the performance of the repeater. The present document covers requirements for GSM Repeaters for Release 8. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive), article 3.2, which states that "... radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". 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 R&TTE Directive [i.2] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document.
Globalni sistem mobilnih komunikacij (GSM) - 4. del: Harmonizirani EN za GSM ponavljalnike (repetitorje), ki zajema bistvene zahteve člena 3.2 direktive R&TTE
Pričujoči dokument velja za naslednje vrste radijske opreme:
1) ponavljalnike za GSM
Ti tipi radijske opreme so zmožni delovanja v vseh ali katerem koli delu frekvenčnega pasu, navedenem v preglednici 1-1.
OPOMBA: V določenih okoliščinah, na primer kadar operaterju (ali več kot enemu operaterju, ki usklajuje uporabo ponavljalnikov) ni dodeljen celotni pas, kot je določeno v preglednici 1-1, je potrebno omejiti frekvenčni razpon delovanj ponavljalnikov. V takih okoliščinah se lahko za potrditev delovanja ponavljalnika uporabi preskus »pridobi zunanji pas delovanja«, naveden v Dodatku C. Pričujoči dokument zajema zahteve za GSM ponavljalnike izdaje 8. Pričujoči dokument je namenjen temu, da zajema določbe Direktive 1999/5/ES (direktive R&TTE) [i.2], člena 3.2, ki navaja, da » … radijska oprema je narejena tako, da učinkovito izrablja spekter, razporejen za prizemne/vesoljske radiokomunikacije in orbitalne vire, tako da ne pride do škodljivega motenja.« Poleg pričujočega dokumenta se ostali EN, ki določajo tehnične zahteve v skladu z bistvenimi zahtevami v drugih delih člena 3 direktive R&TTE [i.2], lahko uporabljajo za opremo znotraj področja uporabe pričujočega dokumenta.

Introduction 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 R&TTE Directive [i.2]. The modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3]. SIST EN 300 609-4 V9.2.1:2010

Foreword
This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee
Mobile Standards Group (MSG), and is now submitted for the Public Enquiry phase of the ETSI standards Two-step
Approval Procedure.
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [i.1] (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the
field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] of the European Parliament
and of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive").
Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] are given in annex A.
Proposed national transposition dates
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 3 months after ETSI publication
Date of latest publication of new National Standard
or endorsement of this EN (dop/e): 6 months after doa
Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 18 months after doa
Introduction
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 R&TTE Directive [i.2]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
1) Repeaters for GSM;
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given in table 1-1.
Table 1-1: GSM Repeater frequency bands
Direction of GSM Repeater frequency bands
transmission
P-GSM900 Downlink 935 MHz to 960 MHz
Uplink 890 MHz to 915 MHz
E-GSM900 Downlink 925 MHz to 960 MHz
Uplink 880 MHz to 915 MHz
R-GSM900 Downlink 921 MHz to 960 MHz
Uplink 876 MHz to 915 MHz
DCS1800 Downlink 1 805 MHz to 1 880 MHz
Uplink 1 710 MHz to 1 785 MHz
GSM450 Downlink 460,4 MHz to 467,6 MHz
Uplink 450,4 MHz to 457,6 MHz
GSM480 Downlink 488,8 MHz to 496 MHz
Uplink 478,8 MHz to 486 MHz
NOTE: In some circumstances, for instance when an operator (or more than one operator who co-ordinate the use
of repeaters), is not allocated a complete band as defined in table 1-1, it may be necessary to restrict the
frequency range of operations of repeaters. In these circumstances, the test of "Gain outside operating
band" in annex C may be used to verify the performance of the repeater.
The present document covers requirements for GSM Repeaters for Release 8.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive),
Article 3.2, which states that ". radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated
to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference".
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 R&TTE Directive [i.2] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
broadband repeater: repeater which is designed for operation on any combination of ARFCNs (up to a specified
maximum number) within the operating band of the repeater
channelized repeater: repeater which is designed for operation on a specified subset of ARFCNs within the operating
band of the repeater
NOTE: The subset of ARFCNs may be determined during the manufacture of the repeater, or may be
programmable.
pass band: repeater can have one or several pass bands
repeater: bi-directional Radio Frequency (RF) amplifier which can amplify and transmit a received Mobile Station
(MS) signal in the GSM MS transmit band, simultaneously it can amplify and transmit a radiated or conducted received
Base Transceiver Station (BTS) RF signal in the GSM BTS transmit band
repeater system using frequency shift: repeater system consisting of two different elements, a master unit close to the
BTS and at least one remote unit close to the area to be covered
NOTE: The master unit amplifies the channels from the BTS and shifts them to different GSM channels. In the
remote unit the shifted channels from the master unit will be transferred back to the original channels and
amplified. This is valid for the downlink signals as well as for the uplink signals.
3.2 Abbreviations
For the purposes of the present document, the following abbreviations apply:
ARFCN Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number
BTS Base Transceiver Station
EVM Error Vector Magnitude
MS Mobile Station
RF Radio Frequency
