Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT);Test specification;Part 1: Radio

The present document (part 1) specifies tests applicable to all Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT)
equipment accessing the DECT frequency band 1 880 MHz to 1 900 MHz (including provisions for testing other or
extended frequency bands as described in ETSI EN 300 175-1 [i.11] and ETSI EN 300 175-2 [1]). Part 2 of the present
multi-part deliverable [i.15] specifies tests applicable to DECT speech and audio transmission using a collection of
speech codecs, including Recommendation ITU-T G.726 [i.7] ADPCM codec, Recommendation ITU-T G.722 [i.8]
"7 kHz codec", "MPEG-4 codec" [i.10] and others.
The aims of the present document are to ensure:
• efficient use of frequency spectrum;
• no harm done to any connected network and its services;
• no harm done to other radio networks and services;
• no harm done to other DECT equipment or its services;
• interworking of terminal equipment via the public network.
The tests of ETSI EN 300 176 are split into two parts:
• the present document (part 1) covers testing of radio frequency parameters, security elements and those DECT
protocols that facilitate the radio frequency tests and efficient use of frequency spectrum;
• part 2 [i.15] describes testing of speech and audio requirements between network interface and DECT PT, or
between a DECT CI air interface and alternatively a DECT PT or FT. Part 2 is not applicable to terminal
equipment specially designed for the disabled (e.g. with amplification of received speech as an aid for the
hard-of-hearing).
DECT terminal equipment consists of the following elements:
a) Fixed Part (FP);
b) Portable Part (PP);
c) Cordless Terminal Adapter (CTA);
d) Wireless Relay Station (WRS) (FP and PP combined);
e) Hybrid Part (HyP) (a PP with capability to act as a FP to provide PP to PP communication

Digitalne izboljšane brezvrvične telekomunikacije (DECT) - Specifikacija preskusa - 1. del: Radio

Ta dokument (1. del) določa preskuse, ki veljajo za vso opremo za digitalno izboljšane brezvrvične telekomunikacije (DECT), ki dostopa do frekvenčnega pasu od 1 880 MHz do 1 900 MHz (vključno z ukrepi za preskušanje drugih ali razširjenih frekvenčnih pasov, kot so opisani v standardih ETSI EN 300 175-1 [i.11] in ETSI EN 300 175-2 [1]). 2. del tega večdelnega dokumenta [i.15] določa preskuse, ki se uporabljajo za prenos govora in zvoka DECT z zbirko govornih kodekov, vključno s kodekom Recommendation ITU-T G.726 [i.7] ADPCM, 7-kHz kodekom Recommendation ITU-T G.722 [i.8], kodekom MPEG-4 [i.10] in drugimi.
Cilj tega dokumenta je zagotoviti:
• učinkovito uporabo frekvenčnega spektra;
• preprečitev poškodb katerega koli priključenega omrežja in njegovih storitev;
• preprečitev poškodb drugih radijskih omrežij in storitev;
• preprečitev poškodb druge opreme za digitalne izboljšane brezvrvične komunikacije ali njenih storitev;
• medsebojno delovanje terminalske opreme prek javnega omrežja.
Preskusi iz standarda ETSI EN 300 176 so ločeni na dva dela:
• ta dokument (1. del) zajema preskušanje parametrov radijskih frekvenc, varnostnih elementov in protokolov digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij, ki omogočajo lažje izvajanje preskusov radijskih frekvenc ter učinkovito uporabo frekvenčnega spektra;
• 2. del [i.15] opisuje preskušanje zahtev za govor in zvok med omrežnim vmesnikom ter prenosnimi radijskimi priključki digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij (DECT PT) ali med skupnim radijskim vmesnikom digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij (DECT CI) in prenosnim radijskim priključkom digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij (DECT PT) ali alternativno fiksnim radijskim priključkom digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij (DECT FT). 2. del se ne uporablja za terminalsko opremo, ki je namenjena posebej za invalide (npr. s povečanjem glasnosti prejetega govora kot pomočjo za naglušne osebe).
Terminalska oprema digitalnih izboljšanih brezvrvičnih komunikacij je sestavljena iz naslednjih elementov:
a) fiksni del (FP);
b) prenosni del (PP);
c) brezvrvični terminalski prilagodilnik (CTA);
d) brezžična relejna postaja (WRS) (fiksni in prenosni del skupaj);
e) hibridni del (HyP) (prenosni del z zmožnostjo delovanja kot fiksni del za namen zagotovitve komunikacije med dvema prenosnima deloma).
