Foreword
This second edition Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) has been produced by the Radio Equipment
and Systems (RES) Technical Committee of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute
(ETSI).
This TBR covers the requirements for terminal (mobile) equipment for use within the Enhanced Radio
MEssage System (ERMES).
This TBR contains the procedures and requirements for the approval testing of ERMES terminal (mobile)
equipment which are mainly intended to be body worn.
The ERMES equipment to be approved is not intended to be physically attached to the public network.
This TBR is based on ETS 300 133-4 [2] and ETS 300 133-5 [3].
This TBR also includes a vocabulary of terms and a list of abbreviations and acronyms.
Annexes A, B and C are normative and therefore integral parts of this TBR.

1 Scope
This Technical Basis for Regulation (TBR) specifies the technical characteristics to be provided by
Enhanced Radio MEssage System (ERMES) terminal equipment, which are mainly intended to be body
worn and are capable of the reception and decoding of signals transmitted according to the ERMES
standard, as described in ETS 300 133-4 [2].
The objective of this TBR is to ensure that ERMES terminal equipment meets the essential requirements
as laid down in terms of the Directive 91/263/EEC [6], articles 4d to 4g.
There are no specific EMC requirements included in this TBR for Article 4c of Directive 91/263/EEC [6].
The general EMC requirements for ERMES are included in ETS 300 340 [9].
2 Normative references
This TBR incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed
hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications
