Fixed Radio Systems - Characteristics and requirements for point-to-point equipment and antennas - Part 2-1: System-dependent requirements for digital systems operating in frequency bands where frequency co-ordination is applied
The present document summarizes all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in applications deployed in bands where frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced in two different clauses sub-sets:
- Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] and further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
- Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered having been commonly agreed for proper system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements are present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis. Description and limits for parameters relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] are given in EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. For other system-dependent parameters where standardization is required but that do not affect the R&TTE Directive "essential requirements" mentioned above, description and limits are detailed in the present document in the annexes A to G, subdivided by frequency band or specific applications. The present document deals with Radio Frequency (RF) and base-band equipment characteristics; antenna system requirements are covered in EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] and EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5]. The present document does not cover test procedures and test conditions which are set out in EN 301 126-1 [14]. As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment classes are defined in EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. The spectral efficiency classes are indicative only and do not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format, provided that all the requirements in the relevant parts of this EN 302 217 series are met. In some cases, where within the same spectral efficiency class there are different applications, (e.g. for multi-channel trunk or single channel operation), that justify different radio frequency parameters, two different equipment "types" (e.g. type 1 and 2) are provided. Guidance on the definition of radio parameters relevant to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] for DFRS may be found in TR 101 506 [i.2]. Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this EN 302 217 series may be found
in TR 101 036-1 [i.1].
Fiksni radijski sistemi - Karakteristike in zahteve za opremo in antene tipa točka-točka - 2-1. del: Sistemsko odvisne zahteve za digitalne sisteme, ki delujejo v frekvenčnih pasovih, kjer se uporablja frekvenčna koordinacija
Pričujoči dokument povzema vse od sistema odvisne zahteve za točka-točka (P-P) opremo v aplikacijah, uporabljenih v pasovih, kjer je frekvenčna koordinacija v splošni rabi. Te zahteve so predstavljene v dveh različnih podsklopih klavzul:
- Glavne zahteve so zahteve, ki so povezane tudi z »bistvenimi zahtevami« iz člena 3.2 R&TTE direktive [1] in nadalje podrobno navedene v EN 217-2-2 [16].
- Dopolnilne zahteve so zahteve, ki niso povezane z bistvenimi zahtevami iz člena 3.2 R&TTE direktive [1]. Kljub temu za njih velja, da so bile skupaj dogovorjene za pravilno delovanje sistema in postavitve, kadar so prisotni določeni pogoji postavitve ali zahteve za združljivost. Skladnost z vsemi ali nekaterimi izmed teh zahtev je prostovoljna. Opis in omejitve za parametre, ki se nanašajo na bistvene zahteve iz člena 3.2 R&TTE direktive [1], so podani v EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. Kadar se zahteva standardizacija, so za ostale od sistema odvisne parametre, ki ne vplivajo na »bistvene zahteve« zgoraj omenjene R&TTE direktive, opis in omejitve podrobno navedeni v pričujočem dokumentu v Dodatkih od A do G, razdeljenih glede na frekvenčne pasove ali posebne aplikacije. Pričujoči dokument obravnava radijske frekvence (RF) in karakteristike osnovnopasovne opreme; zahteve za antenske sisteme so zajete v EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] in EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5]. Pričujoči dokument ne zajema preskusne postopke in pogoje, ki so določeni v EN 301 126-1 [i.4]. Ker je maksimalna stopnja prenosa v dani pasovni širini odvisna od učinkovitosti spektralnega sistema, so različni razredi opreme opredeljeni v EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. Razredi spektralne učinkovitosti so samo okvirni in pod pogojem, da so vse zahteve v ustreznih delih serije EN 302 217 izpolnjene, ne vsebujejo kakršnih koli omejitev za dejanski modulacijski format. V nekateri primerih, kjer se znotraj istega spektralnega učinkovitostnega razreda nahajajo različne aplikacije (npr. za več kanalni snop ali eno kanalno delovanje), ki upravičujejo različne parametre radijske frekvence, sta določena dva različna »tipa« opreme (npr. tip 1 in 2). Vodilo o definiciji radijskih parametrov, pomembnih za bistvene zahteve iz člena 3.2 R&TTE direktive [1] za DFRS, je na voljo v TR 101 506 [i.2]. Tehnično ozadje za večino parametrov in zahtev, naštetih v seriji EN 302 217, je na voljo v TR 101 036-1 [i.1].

1 Scope
The present document summarizes all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in
applications deployed in bands where frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced
in two different clauses sub-sets:
• Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of
the R&TTE Directive [1] and further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
• Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under
article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered having been commonly agreed for
proper system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements
are present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis.
Description and limits for parameters relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] are
given in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For other system-dependent parameters where standardization is required but that do not affect the R&TTE Directive
"essential requirements" mentioned above, description and limits are detailed in the present document in the annexes A
to G, subdivided by frequency band or specific applications.
The present document deals with Radio Frequency (RF) and base-band equipment characteristics; antenna system
requirements are covered in EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] and EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5].
The present document does not cover test procedures and test conditions which are set out in EN 301 126-1 [14].
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are defined in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
The spectral efficiency classes are indicative only and do not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements in the relevant parts of this EN 302 217 series are met.
In some cases, where within the same spectral efficiency class there are different applications, (e.g. for multi-channel
trunk or single channel operation), that justify different radio frequency parameters, two different equipment "types"
(e.g. type 1 and 2) are provided.
Guidance on the definition of radio parameters relevant to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE
Directive [1] for DFRS may be found in TR 101 506 [i.2].
Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this EN 302 217 series may be found
in TR 101 036-1 [i.1].

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in EN 302 217-1 [15] apply.
3.2 Symbols
For the purposes of the present document, the symbols given in EN 302 217-1 [15] apply.
3.3 Abbreviations
For the purposes of the present document, the abbreviations given in EN 302 217-1 [15] apply.
4 General characteristics
For commonality of purpose, systems are sub-divided into families by frequency range of operation; one normative
annex is assigned to each family of equipment. There are six families of annexes, referenced from A to F, which may be
found in both in the present document and EN 302 217-2-2 [16]:
• A Frequency bands from 1,4 GHz to 2,7 GHz.
• B Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation up to 30 MHz and 56/60 MHz).
• C Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation 40 MHz).
• D Frequency bands 13 GHz, 15 GHz and 18 GHz.
• E Frequency bands from 23 GHz to 55 GHz.
• F Transmission of packet data and combinations of other signals in bands from 3 GHz to 55 GHz.
4.1 Frequency bands and channel arrangements
Frequency bands and channel arrangements, which are relevant for equipment covered by the present document, are
defined by ITU-R Recommendations and/or CEPT Recommendations and are referenced in the first table of each
annex A through E (i.e. tables A.1 through E.1) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC (see note) recommended frequency channel arrangements, known at the date
of publication of this EN 302 217 series, are set out for reference only. In general, the channel arrangement is relevant
neither to article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] nor for other requirements in the present document; only the frequency
band, actual channel separation and, in some cases innermost channels separation are relevant for defining the set of
parameters and test suites relevant to each system.
NOTE: CEPT Recommendations were published until 2002 as CEPT/ERC Recommendations; consequently to
the restructuring of ERC under new ECC organization, new and revised Recommendations might
formally change their reference as ECC Recommendations, without changing their technical content and
applicability.
ETSI
11 Final draft ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2009-09)
Other national or future ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, set around the same or close to the
frequency range of present ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, are considered applicable to
systems assessed against this EN 302 217 series, provided that they use the same channel separation.
Specification and tests of wide radio-frequency band covering units and multirate equipment are placed in normative
annex G of EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. Whenever applicable, it is also valid for assessing parameters specified in the present
document.
4.2 Special compatibility requirements between systems
There shall be no requirement to operate transmitting equipment from one supplier with receiving equipment from
another and, depending on the deployment conditions, it shall be possible to operate the system in vertical and/or
horizontal polarization, if required by the channel arrangement.
To be compatible with certain constraints given by existing installations and/or deployments already made with systems
from other supplier or for different FS applications, new systems on the same path may be subject to additional
requirements, other than those derived for a single supplier or same application environment.
NOTE: This does not imply that when a single supplier is involved there are no similar requirements; however,
they do not need standardization because many other technical and cost-effective solutions might be
flexibly adopted under suppliers' own responsibility only.
For the purposes of this EN 302 217 series the following set of compatibility requirements between systems has been
defined:
a) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on the same polarization of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
b) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on different polarizations of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
c) There may be a requirement to coexist with analogue systems on adjacent cross-polarized channels on the
same route.
4.3 Transmission capacity and spectral efficiency
The payload bit rates considered in this EN 302 217 series are commonly tailored to typical PDH and SDH baseband
interfaces: 2,048 Mbit/s, 2 × 2,048 Mbit/s, 8,448 Mbit/s, 2 × 8,448 Mbit/s, 34,368 Mbit/s, 2 × 34,368 Mbit/s,
51,840 Mbit/s (STM-0), 2 × 51,840 Mbit/s (2 × STM-0), 155,520 Mbit/s (STM-1), N × 155,520 Mbit/s (N × STM-1),
STM-N. Only systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with
typical capacity rate without specific reference to PDH/SDH rates. In the following text these capacities will be simply
referred to as 2 Mbit/s, 2 × 2 Mbit/s, 8 Mbit/s, 2 × 8 Mbit/s, 34 Mbit/s, 2 × 34 Mbit/s, STM-0, 2 × STM-0, STM-1,
N × STM-1 and STM-N.
For each system the bit rates related to each class and their relevant channel separation are detailed in the second table
of each annex A through E (i.e. tables A.2 through E.2) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
Provided that they meet all requirements of the relevant annex, equivalent or higher PDH or SDH transport rates may be
used where appropriate. Such equivalence transport rates may be:
• N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates, even if multiplexed into proprietary frames, in place of higher
order PDH rates;
• 140 Mbit/s (including the above N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates) in place of STM-1;
• any PDH mapping into STM-0 or STM-1 frames, as defined in the basic multiplexing schemes;
• N × 2 Mbit/s mapped into SDH VC12 or VC2 transport bit rates (sub-STM-0 defined, as sSTM-1k or
sSTM-2n capacities, by ITU-T Recommendation G.708 [26]) in place of a PDH rate (e.g. 4 × VC12/sSTM14
or 1 × VC2/sSTM21 in place of 8 Mbit/s) (note).
NOTE: In addition to this general principle, annex D (system D.2) presents specific characteristics for
sub-STM-0 systems in the 18 GHz band.
ETSI
12 Final draft ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2009-09)
• Any other signal (e.g. IP frames or ATM cells, even possibly mixed with PDH capacities) mapping into PDH
or SDH frames, according present or future basic ITU-T or ETSI multiplexing schemes.
The present document is also applicable to other base band interfaces (e.g. packet data interfaces or mixed interfaces)
even if multiplexed (including compression algorithms if any) into proprietary frames; for such cases annex F gives the
basic rules for applying the conventional PDH/SDH set of parameters to those equipment assessment.
5 Main requirements
This clause summarizes requirements related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of the R&TTE
Directive [1] that are further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. However, for some requirements, besides the relevant
essential limits set out in EN 302 217-2-2 [16] for the purpose of their separate publishing in the Official Journal of the
European Communities (OJEC) under the R&TTE Directive [1], additional, non-essential, more stringent limits are
here set out in response to specific compatibility requirements by network operators when deploying new systems on
the same routes with existing systems from other suppliers.
The specified transmitter and receiver characteristics shall be met with the appropriate baseband signals applied at
reference point X' and received from reference point X of figure 1 of EN 302 217-1 [15].

Type of baseband signal interface at X/X' Test signal to be applied according to…
PDH PRBS ITU-T Recommendation O.151 [27]
SDH ITU-T Recommendation O.181 [28]
ATM ITU-T Recommendation O.191 [29]
Ethernet interface (packet data) IEEE 802.3 [23], IEEE 1802.3 [24]
Other than the above Relevant standards which the interface refers to
5.0 Environmental profile
The required environmental profile for operation of the equipment shall be declared by the supplier. The equipment
shall comply with all the technical requirements of the present document at all times when operating within the
boundary limits of the required operational environmental profile.
Preferably, the selected environmental profiles should be one of more ETSI profiles in EN 300 019 series (see [4]
through [13]), standardized for various operating, transport and storage situations.
5.1 Transmitter characteristics
5.1.1 Transmitter power
The only essential requirement is the Maximum Output Power which is an essential requirement under article 3.2 of
R&TTE Directive [1] and is specified in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For guidance, in addition to the absolute maximum transmitter power, typical values of transmitter highest power for
real equipment, of feeder loss and length, and of antenna diameter and gain are provided in TR 102 243-1 [i.3] in order
to support inter- and intra- compatibility and sharing analysis.
In some frequency bands, or parts of frequency bands, ITU-R Recommendations define specific limits in terms of
output power and/or EIRP (or output power and/or EIRP density) in order to improve the compatibility with other
Radio Services sharing these frequency bands with the FS.
An additional capability for output power level adjustment may be required, for regulatory purposes, in the interface
regulations according to article 4.1 of the R&TTE Directive [1], in which case the range of adjustment, either by fixed
or automatic attenuators, should be in increments of 5 dB or less.
In particular, for the band 18 GHz, the FS shall, where practical, implement the appropriate mitigation techniques as
required in ERC/DEC/(00)07 [3]. See annex H.

5.1.2 Transmitter power and frequency control
5.1.2.1 Transmitter power control (ATPC and RTPC)
5.1.2.1.1 Automatic Transmitter Power Control (ATPC)
This functionality is relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] and is specified in
EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
Besides those essential requirements specified in EN 302 217-2-2 [16], ATPC may be requested as mandatory
functionality in the licensing conditions for the following purposes:
• to enhance network density (see note 1);
• as a mitigation factor for sharing with other Services due to CEPT Decisions (see notes 2 and 3).
Administrations should explicitly state whether ATPC is used as a regulatory measure for either frequency coordination
or as a mitigation technique to protect other services in its radio regulation interface for notifi

1 Scope
The present document summarizes all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in
applications deployed in bands where frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced
in two different clauses sub-sets:
• Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of
the R&TTE Directive [1] and further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
• Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under
article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered having been commonly agreed for
proper system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements
are present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis.
Description and limits for parameters relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] are
given in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For other system-dependent parameters where standardization is required but that do not affect the R&TTE Directive
"essential requirements" mentioned above, description and limits are detailed in the present document in the annexes A
to G, subdivided by frequency band or specific applications.
The present document deals with Radio Frequency (RF) and base-band equipment characteristics; antenna system
requirements are covered in EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] and EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5].
The present document does not cover test procedures and test conditions which are set out in EN 301 126-1 [14].
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are defined in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
The spectral efficiency classes are indicative only and do not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements in the relevant parts of this EN 302 217 series are met.
In some cases, where within the same spectral efficiency class there are different applications, (e.g. for multi-channel
trunk or single channel operation), that justify different radio frequency parameters, two different equipment "types"
(e.g. type 1 and 2) are provided.
Guidance on the definition of radio parameters relevant to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE
Directive [1] for DFRS may be found in TR 101 506 [i.2].
Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this EN 302 217 series may be found
in TR 101 036-1 [i.1].

3.2 Symbols
For the purposes of the present document, the symbols given in EN 302 217-1 [15] apply.

4 General characteristics
For commonality of purpose, systems are sub-divided into families by frequency range of operation; one normative
annex is assigned to each family of equipment. There are six families of annexes, referenced from A to F, which may be
found in both in the present document and EN 302 217-2-2 [16]:
• A Frequency bands from 1,4 GHz to 2,7 GHz.
• B Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation up to 30 MHz and 56/60 MHz).
• C Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation 40 MHz).
• D Frequency bands 13 GHz, 15 GHz and 18 GHz.
• E Frequency bands from 23 GHz to 55 GHz.
• F Transmission of packet data and combinations of other signals in bands from 3 GHz to 55 GHz.
4.1 Frequency bands and channel arrangements
Frequency bands and channel arrangements, which are relevant for equipment covered by the present document, are
defined by ITU-R Recommendations and/or CEPT Recommendations and are referenced in the first table of each
annex A through E (i.e. tables A.1 through E.1) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC (see note) recommended frequency channel arrangements, known at the date
of publication of this EN 302 217 series, are set out for reference only. In general, the channel arrangement is relevant
neither to article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] nor for other requirements in the present document; only the frequency
band, actual channel separation and, in some cases innermost channels separation are relevant for defining the set of
parameters and test suites relevant to each system.
NOTE: CEPT Recommendations were published until 2002 as CEPT/ERC Recommendations; consequently to
the restructuring of ERC under new ECC organization, new and revised Recommendations might
formally change their reference as ECC Recommendations, without changing their technical content and
applicability.
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2010-01)
Other national or future ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, set around the same or close to the
frequency range of present ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, are considered applicable to
systems assessed against this EN 302 217 series, provided that they use the same channel separation.
Specification and tests of wide radio-frequency band covering units and multirate equipment are placed in normative
annex G of EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. Whenever applicable, it is also valid for assessing parameters specified in the present
document.
4.2 Special compatibility requirements between systems
There shall be no requirement to operate transmitting equipment from one supplier with receiving equipment from
another and, depending on the deployment conditions, it shall be possible to operate the system in vertical and/or
horizontal polarization, if required by the channel arrangement.
To be compatible with certain constraints given by existing installations and/or deployments already made with systems
from other supplier or for different FS applications, new systems on the same path may be subject to additional
requirements, other than those derived for a single supplier or same application environment.
NOTE: This does not imply that when a single supplier is involved there are no similar requirements; however,
they do not need standardization because many other technical and cost-effective solutions might be
flexibly adopted under suppliers' own responsibility only.
For the purposes of this EN 302 217 series the following set of compatibility requirements between systems has been
defined:
a) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on the same polarization of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
b) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on different polarizations of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
c) There may be a requirement to coexist with analogue systems on adjacent cross-polarized channels on the
same route.
4.3 Transmission capacity and spectral efficiency
The payload bit rates considered in this EN 302 217 series are commonly tailored to typical PDH and SDH baseband
interfaces: 2,048 Mbit/s, 2 × 2,048 Mbit/s, 8,448 Mbit/s, 2 × 8,448 Mbit/s, 34,368 Mbit/s, 2 × 34,368 Mbit/s,
51,840 Mbit/s (STM-0), 2 × 51,840 Mbit/s (2 × STM-0), 155,520 Mbit/s (STM-1), N × 155,520 Mbit/s (N × STM-1),
STM-N. Only systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with
typical capacity rate without specific reference to PDH/SDH rates. In the following text these capacities will be simply
referred to as 2 Mbit/s, 2 × 2 Mbit/s, 8 Mbit/s, 2 × 8 Mbit/s, 34 Mbit/s, 2 × 34 Mbit/s, STM-0, 2 × STM-0, STM-1,
N × STM-1 and STM-N.
For each system the bit rates related to each class and their relevant channel separation are detailed in the second table
of each annex A through E (i.e. tables A.2 through E.2) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
Provided that they meet all requirements of the relevant annex, equivalent or higher PDH or SDH transport rates may be
used where appropriate. Such equivalence transport rates may be:
• N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates, even if multiplexed into proprietary frames, in place of higher
order PDH rates;
• 140 Mbit/s (including the above N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates) in place of STM-1;
• any PDH mapping into STM-0 or STM-1 frames, as defined in the basic multiplexing schemes;
• N × 2 Mbit/s mapped into SDH VC12 or VC2 transport bit rates (sub-STM-0 defined, as sSTM-1k or
sSTM-2n capacities, by ITU-T Recommendation G.708 [26]) in place of a PDH rate (e.g. 4 × VC12/sSTM14
or 1 × VC2/sSTM21 in place of 8 Mbit/s) (note).
NOTE: In addition to this general principle, annex D (system D.2) presents specific characteristics for sub-STM-0
systems in the 18 GHz band.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2010-01)
• Any other signal (e.g. IP frames or ATM cells, even possibly mixed with PDH capacities) mapping into PDH
or SDH frames, according present or future basic ITU-T or ETSI multiplexing schemes.
The present document is also applicable to other base band interfaces (e.g. packet data interfaces or mixed interfaces)
even if multiplexed (including compression algorithms if any) into proprietary frames; for such cases annex F gives the
basic rules for applying the conventional PDH/SDH set of parameters to those equipment assessment.
5 Main requirements
This clause summarizes requirements related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of the R&TTE
Directive [1] that are further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. However, for some requirements, besides the relevant
essential limits set out in EN 302 217-2-2 [16] for the purpose of their separate publishing in the Official Journal of the
European Communities (OJEC) under the R&TTE Directive [1], additional, non-essential, more stringent limits are
here set out in response to specific compatibility requirements by network operators when deploying new systems on
the same routes with existing systems from other suppliers.
The specified transmitter and receiver characteristics shall be met with the appropriate baseband signals applied at
reference point X' and received from reference point X of figure 1 of EN 302 217-1 [15].

5.0 Environmental profile
The required environmental profile for operation of the equipment shall be declared by the supplier. The equipment
shall comply with all the technical requirements of the present document at all times when operating within the
boundary limits of the required operational environmental profile.
Preferably, the selected environmental profiles should be one of more ETSI profiles in EN 300 019 series (see [4]
through [13]), standardized for various operating, transport and storage situations.
5.1 Transmitter characteristics
5.1.1 Transmitter power
The only essential requirement is the Maximum Output Power which is an essential requirement under article 3.2 of
R&TTE Directive [1] and is specified in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For guidance, in addition to the absolute maximum transmitter power, typical values of transmitter highest power for
real equipment, of feeder loss and length, and of antenna diameter and gain are provided in TR 102 243-1 [i.3] in order
to support inter- and intra- compatibility and sharing analysis.
In some frequency bands, or parts of frequency bands, ITU-R Recommendations define specific limits in terms of
output power and/or EIRP (or output power and/or EIRP density) in order to improve the compatibility with other
Radio Services sharing these frequency bands with the FS.
An additional capability for output power level adjustment may be required, for regulatory purposes, in the interface
regulations according to article 4.1 of the R&TTE Directive [1], in which case the range of adjustment, either by fixed
or automatic attenuators, should be in increments of 5 dB or less.
In particular, for the band 18 GHz, the FS shall, where practical, implement the appropriate mitigation techniques as
required in ERC/DEC/(00)07 [3]. See annex H.
ETSI
13 ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2010-01)
5.1.2 Transmitter power and frequency control
5.1.2.1 Transmitter power control (ATPC and RTPC)
5.1.2.1.1 Automatic Transmitter Power Control (ATPC)
This functionality is relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] and is specified in
EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
Besides those essential requirements specified in EN 302 217-2-2 [16], ATPC may be requested as mandatory
functionality in the licensing conditions for the following purposes:
• to enhance network density (see note 1);
• as a mitigation factor for sharing with other Services due to CEPT Decisions (see notes 2 and 3).
Administrations should explicitly state whether ATPC is used as a regulatory measure for either frequency coordination
or as a mitigation technique to protect other services in its radio regulation interface for notification according to
article 4.1 of the R&TTE Directive [1].
NOTE 1: In this particular case, as an additional, but non-essential to article 3.2, requirement, it may be specified
that transmitter output power meet the spectrum mas

1 Scope
The present document summarizes all system-dependent requirements for Point-to-Point (P-P) equipment in
applications deployed in bands where frequency co-ordination is generally applied. These requirements are introduced
in two different clauses sub-sets:
• Main requirements are requirements that are also related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of
the R&TTE Directive [1] and further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
• Complementary requirements are requirements that are not related to essential requirements under
article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1]. Nevertheless they are considered having been commonly agreed for
proper system operation and deployment when specific deployment conditions or compatibility requirements
are present. Compliance to all or some of these requirements is made on a voluntary basis.
Description and limits for parameters relevant to essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE Directive [1] are
given in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For other system-dependent parameters where standardization is required but that do not affect the R&TTE Directive
"essential requirements" mentioned above, description and limits are detailed in the present document in the annexes A
to G, subdivided by frequency band or specific applications.
The present document deals with Radio Frequency (RF) and base-band equipment characteristics; antenna system
requirements are covered in EN 302 217-4-1 [i.4] and EN 302 217-4-2 [i.5].
The present document does not cover test procedures and test conditions which are set out in EN 301 126-1 [14].
As the maximum transmission rate in a given bandwidth depends on system spectral efficiency, different equipment
classes are defined in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
The spectral efficiency classes are indicative only and do not imply any constraint to the actual modulation format,
provided that all the requirements in the relevant parts of this EN 302 217 series are met.
In some cases, where within the same spectral efficiency class there are different applications, (e.g. for multi-channel
trunk or single channel operation), that justify different radio frequency parameters, two different equipment "types"
(e.g. type 1 and 2) are provided.
Guidance on the definition of radio parameters relevant to the essential requirements under article 3.2 of R&TTE
Directive [1] for DFRS may be found in TR 101 506 [i.2].
Technical background for most of the parameters and requirements referred to in this EN 302 217 series may be found
in TR 101 036-1 [i.1].

3.2 Symbols
For the purposes of the present document, the symbols given in EN 302 217-1 [15] apply.

4 General characteristics
For commonality of purpose, systems are sub-divided into families by frequency range of operation; one normative
annex is assigned to each family of equipment. There are six families of annexes, referenced from A to F, which may be
found in both in the present document and EN 302 217-2-2 [16]:
• A Frequency bands from 1,4 GHz to 2,7 GHz.
• B Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation up to 30 MHz and 56/60 MHz).
• C Frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz (Channel separation 40 MHz).
• D Frequency bands 13 GHz, 15 GHz and 18 GHz.
• E Frequency bands from 23 GHz to 55 GHz.
• F Transmission of packet data and combinations of other signals in bands from 3 GHz to 55 GHz.
4.1 Frequency bands and channel arrangements
Frequency bands and channel arrangements, which are relevant for equipment covered by the present document, are
defined by ITU-R Recommendations and/or CEPT Recommendations and are referenced in the first table of each
annex A through E (i.e. tables A.1 through E.1) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC (see note) recommended frequency channel arrangements, known at the date
of publication of this EN 302 217 series, are set out for reference only. In general, the channel arrangement is relevant
neither to article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] nor for other requirements in the present document; only the frequency
band, actual channel separation and, in some cases innermost channels separation are relevant for defining the set of
parameters and test suites relevant to each system.
NOTE: CEPT Recommendations were published until 2002 as CEPT/ERC Recommendations; consequently to
the restructuring of ERC under new ECC organization, new and revised Recommendations might
formally change their reference as ECC Recommendations, without changing their technical content and
applicability.
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2010-01)
Other national or future ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, set around the same or close to the
frequency range of present ITU-R Recommendations or CEPT/ECC Recommendations, are considered applicable to
systems assessed against this EN 302 217 series, provided that they use the same channel separation.
Specification and tests of wide radio-frequency band covering units and multirate equipment are placed in normative
annex G of EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. Whenever applicable, it is also valid for assessing parameters specified in the present
document.
4.2 Special compatibility requirements between systems
There shall be no requirement to operate transmitting equipment from one supplier with receiving equipment from
another and, depending on the deployment conditions, it shall be possible to operate the system in vertical and/or
horizontal polarization, if required by the channel arrangement.
To be compatible with certain constraints given by existing installations and/or deployments already made with systems
from other supplier or for different FS applications, new systems on the same path may be subject to additional
requirements, other than those derived for a single supplier or same application environment.
NOTE: This does not imply that when a single supplier is involved there are no similar requirements; however,
they do not need standardization because many other technical and cost-effective solutions might be
flexibly adopted under suppliers' own responsibility only.
For the purposes of this EN 302 217 series the following set of compatibility requirements between systems has been
defined:
a) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on the same polarization of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
b) There may be a requirement to multiplex different suppliers' equipment on different polarizations of the same
antenna. This will not apply to systems with an integral antenna.
c) There may be a requirement to coexist with analogue systems on adjacent cross-polarized channels on the
same route.
4.3 Transmission capacity and spectral efficiency
The payload bit rates considered in this EN 302 217 series are commonly tailored to typical PDH and SDH baseband
interfaces: 2,048 Mbit/s, 2 × 2,048 Mbit/s, 8,448 Mbit/s, 2 × 8,448 Mbit/s, 34,368 Mbit/s, 2 × 34,368 Mbit/s,
51,840 Mbit/s (STM-0), 2 × 51,840 Mbit/s (2 × STM-0), 155,520 Mbit/s (STM-1), N × 155,520 Mbit/s (N × STM-1),
STM-N. Only systems in annex A, due to the smaller channel separation provided, are (exceptionally) labelled with
typical capacity rate without specific reference to PDH/SDH rates. In the following text these capacities will be simply
referred to as 2 Mbit/s, 2 × 2 Mbit/s, 8 Mbit/s, 2 × 8 Mbit/s, 34 Mbit/s, 2 × 34 Mbit/s, STM-0, 2 × STM-0, STM-1,
N × STM-1 and STM-N.
For each system the bit rates related to each class and their relevant channel separation are detailed in the second table
of each annex A through E (i.e. tables A.2 through E.2) of EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
Provided that they meet all requirements of the relevant annex, equivalent or higher PDH or SDH transport rates may be
used where appropriate. Such equivalence transport rates may be:
• N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates, even if multiplexed into proprietary frames, in place of higher
order PDH rates;
• 140 Mbit/s (including the above N × 2 Mbit/s or other mixture of PDH rates) in place of STM-1;
• any PDH mapping into STM-0 or STM-1 frames, as defined in the basic multiplexing schemes;
• N × 2 Mbit/s mapped into SDH VC12 or VC2 transport bit rates (sub-STM-0 defined, as sSTM-1k or
sSTM-2n capacities, by ITU-T Recommendation G.708 [26]) in place of a PDH rate (e.g. 4 × VC12/sSTM14
or 1 × VC2/sSTM21 in place of 8 Mbit/s) (note).
NOTE: In addition to this general principle, annex D (system D.2) presents specific characteristics for sub-STM-0
systems in the 18 GHz band.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 302 217-2-1 V1.3.1 (2010-01)
• Any other signal (e.g. IP frames or ATM cells, even possibly mixed with PDH capacities) mapping into PDH
or SDH frames, according present or future basic ITU-T or ETSI multiplexing schemes.
The present document is also applicable to other base band interfaces (e.g. packet data interfaces or mixed interfaces)
even if multiplexed (including compression algorithms if any) into proprietary frames; for such cases annex F gives the
basic rules for applying the conventional PDH/SDH set of parameters to those equipment assessment.
5 Main requirements
This clause summarizes requirements related to the "essential requirements" under article 3.2 of the R&TTE
Directive [1] that are further detailed in EN 302 217-2-2 [16]. However, for some requirements, besides the relevant
essential limits set out in EN 302 217-2-2 [16] for the purpose of their separate publishing in the Official Journal of the
European Communities (OJEC) under the R&TTE Directive [1], additional, non-essential, more stringent limits are
here set out in response to specific compatibility requirements by network operators when deploying new systems on
the same routes with existing systems from other suppliers.
The specified transmitter and receiver characteristics shall be met with the appropriate baseband signals applied at
reference point X' and received from reference point X of figure 1 of EN 302 217-1 [15].

5.0 Environmental profile
The required environmental profile for operation of the equipment shall be declared by the supplier. The equipment
shall comply with all the technical requirements of the present document at all times when operating within the
boundary limits of the required operational environmental profile.
Preferably, the selected environmental profiles should be one of more ETSI profiles in EN 300 019 series (see [4]
through [13]), standardized for various operating, transport and storage situations.
5.1 Transmitter characteristics
5.1.1 Transmitter power
The only essential requirement is the Maximum Output Power which is an essential requirement under article 3.2 of
R&TTE Directive [1] and is specified in EN 302 217-2-2 [16].
For guidance, in addition to the absolute maximum transmitter power, typical values of transmitter highest power for
real equipment, of feeder loss and length, and of antenna diameter and gain are provided in TR 102 243-1 [i.3] in order
to support inter- and intra- compatibility and sharing analysis.
In some frequency bands, or parts of frequency bands, ITU-R Recommendations define specific limits in terms of
output power and/or EIRP (or output power and/or EIRP density) in order to improve the compatibility with other
Radio Services sharing these frequency bands with the FS.
An additional capability for output power level adjustment may be required, for regulatory purposes, in the interface
regulations according to article 4.1 of the R&TTE Direc
