Fixed Radio Systems; Conformance testing; Part 2-3: Point-to-Multipoint equipment; Test procedures for TDMA systems

The present document details standardized test procedures for conformance testing of equipment for Point-to-MultiPoint (P-MP) digital radio relay systems applying time division multiple access method (TDMA). Optionally, for certain of the system types defined in the present document, other access methods (e.g. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)) may be used in conjunction with TDMA to provide another dimension of multiple access.
Standardized procedures are required in order to fulfil ECC/DEC/(04)04 [1] on the mutual recognition, within CEPT, of the results of conformance tests on equipment carried out in individual CEPT Countries. Furthermore the procedures described in the present document are relevant to be able to fulfil the conformance assessment procedure described in Chapter II of the Directive 1999/5/EC [3] in order to demonstrate the compliance of the DRRS with the relevant Essential Requirements identified in Article 3.2 of the Directive 1999/5/EC [3]. The present document is intended to be applied in conjunction with EN 301 126-2-1 [2] and in conjunction with the individual equipment ENs/ETSs describing TDMA methods and will enable commonality of test results, irrespective of the Supplier or the Notified Body carrying out the test.
The conformance tests described in the present document are those related to radio specific parameters required directly by the relevant radio relay ENs/ETSs. Conformance tests to other boundary EN/ETS (e.g. those for system input/output interfaces and related base band process) are outside the scope of the present document.

1 Scope
The present document details standardized test procedures for conformance testing of equipment for
Point-to-MultiPoint (P-MP) digital radio relay systems applying time division multiple access method (TDMA).
Optionally, for certain of the system types defined in the present document, other access methods (e.g. Orthogonal
Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)) may be used in conjunction with TDMA to provide another dimension
of multiple access.
Standardized procedures are required in order to fulfil ECC/DEC/(04)04 [1] on the mutual recognition, within CEPT, of
the results of conformance tests on equipment carried out in individual CEPT Countries. Furthermore the procedures
described in the present document are relevant to be able to fulfil the conformance assessment procedure described in
Chapter II of the Directive 1999/5/EC [3] in order to demonstrate the compliance of the DRRS with the relevant
Essential Requirements identified in Article 3.2 of the Directive 1999/5/EC [3].
The present document is intended to be applied in conjunction with EN 301 126-2-1 [2] and in conjunction with the
individual equipment ENs/ETSs describing TDMA methods and will enable commonality of test results, irrespective of
the Supplier or the Notified Body carrying out the test.
The conformance tests described in the present document are those related to radio specific parameters required directly
by the relevant radio relay ENs/ETSs. Conformance tests to other boundary EN/ETS (e.g. those for system input/output
interfaces and related base band process) are outside the scope of the present document.

4.1.1 System configuration
P-MP equipment is designed to operate as an access system connected to a network node (e.g. local switch) and user
terminal equipment (figure 1). The individual conformance tests are made in a single link direction (figure 2) but for
certain tests, e.g. for equipment to set up signalling, both forward and reverse links have to operate, the minimum
equipment arrangement for tests with only one subscriber is shown in figure 3, where the forward and return RF paths
are separated by a pair of duplexers and separate attenuators are inserted in each path. In the absence of any more
specific instructions from the supplier it is suggested that the links are operated at threshold (RSL) + n dB where n is
half of the link dynamic range except when the receiver is being tested. The other receiver(s) should continue to be
operated at threshold (RSL) + n dB.
Calibrated splitters or directional couplers will be inserted at points A, B, C and D (figures 3 and 4) as required for the
individual tests, either to provide test points or sources of interfering signals.

Figure 3: Test configuration for a single Terminal Station
NOTE 1: Calibrated splitters or directional couplers will be inserted at points A, B, C and D as required for the
individual tests, either as test points or as sources of interfering signals.
NOTE 2: When measuring the TS transmitter to demonstrate that it meets the emission mask and spurious
emissions limits, the splitter network will have only one TS connected and this network may be removed.
NOTE 3: The P-MP systems to be tested are duplex systems and features such as time/frequency synchronization
and ATPC require both paths to be functioning correctly. To ensure that the results of measurements on
either the forward or return paths, e.g. receiver RSL, are not influenced by conditions in the other path it
may be necessary to provide lower attenuation, or raise the transmitter power, in this other path. In the
absence of any more specific instructions from the supplier it is suggested that this other path is operated
at threshold (RSL) + n dB.
All the test procedures, presented in the following clauses, shall apply to both CRS(s) and TS(s). Unless otherwise
stated, all Essential Requirements (ER) tests shall be undertaken at the nominal and extremes of power supply and
environmental parameters and at maximum output power. RF power, spectrum and frequency measurements shall be
undertaken at low, medium and high frequencies within the declared range of frequencies. These RF frequencies may
be selected by remote control or otherwise.

Central or remote stations incorporating integral antennas shall be provided with an appropriate coaxial or waveguide
transition by the supplier in order to facilitate the measurements described.
For tests where the simultaneous use of several TSs is necessary, then an arrangement similar to that shown in figure 4
is required. To enable communication, the traffic load may be simulated and facilities such as remote loop back may be
used to route traffic through the system.
This arrangement ensures that the system operates in a normal manner similar to its configuration for measurements
such as transmitter mask and RSL.

4.2.1 Maximum RF output power
Objective:
Verify that the highest average RF output power measured during a transmission burst at reference point B'or C'
(figure 5) is within the supplier's declared value, plus/minus the EN/ETS tolerance, and does not exceed the EN/ETS
maximum value. For the CRS this may be done using a power meter with all time slots transmitting at maximum power.
For the TS this may be done by synchronizing the power measurement with the active burst(s) or correcting the power
with a correction due to the on/off duty cycle.
Test instruments:

Figure 5: Test configuration for maximum RF output power
Test Procedure:
With the transmitter power level set to maximum, including ATPC/RTPC, etc, the maximum output power of the
transmitter at point B (C) during the worst case, as declared by the supplier, of the modulated transmission burst is
measured. To make this measurement an average power meter with a time gating function or an appropriate alternate
shall be used. All systems should be tested at 3 frequencies: top, middle and bottom frequencies of the available range.
A power splitter or coupler may be required if the TS requires an RF link from the CRS before it can operate.
4.2.2 Minimum RF output power (if applicable)
Objective:
Verify that the minimum RF output power measured at reference point B' or C' of equipment which is fitted with a
power control facility is within the specified limit of the declared value.
Test Instruments:
Average Power Meter with a time gating function or an appropriate alternate.
Test Configuration:
As for maximum power test.
Test Procedure:
With the transmitter power level set to minimum the transmitter output at B (C) is to be measured. All systems should
be tested at 3 frequencies: top, middle and bottom frequencies of the available range.
4.2.3 Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC)
ATPC is an optional feature. However, when fitted and required by the standard, the minimum and maximum output
power levels shall be checked. In addition, satisfactory operation of the automatic facility shall be demonstrated.
Objective:
When ATPC is implemented, the control loop is to be checked for satisfactory operation i.e.: Tx output power is related
to the input level at the far end receiver.
Test Instruments:
As for maximum power test.
Test Configuration:
To be declared by the supplier.
Test Procedure:
Throughout the transmitter's selected power range, the receiver input level is to be maintained within the limits stated in
the relevant EN/ETS or in supplier's guaranteed operating criteria. The test is to be repeated to verify that the automatic
power control performance, between maximum selected transmitter power and minimum transmitter power meets the
EN/ETS or supplier's performance limits.

4.2.4 Remote Transmit Power Control (RTPC)
Where remote transmit power control option is fitted, it may be checked and recorded during the transmitter output
power test. The maximum power shall not exceed that applied in clause 4.2.1 as an essential requirement.
4.2.5 Frequency accuracy
Objective:
To verify that the Tx output frequency is within the limits specified in the relevant EN/ETS.
NOTE 1: For systems that do not shut down on loss of synchronization, frequency accuracy should also be
measured in the non-synchronized condition.
Test Instruments:
either:
1) Frequency Counter capable of measuring modulated signals;
2) Spectrum Analyser with an accurate frequency reference (recommended two orders of magnitude greater than
the allowed limit), internal or external.

Figure 6: Test configuration for frequency accuracy
Test Procedure:
The Tx is to be operated in the normal operating modulated condition and frequency measurements conducted on each
of the three selected frequencies (high, medium, low) through the remote frequency control, if fitted. The measured
frequency is to be within the supplier's stated operating range. A power splitter or coupler may be required if the TS
requires an RF link from the CRS before it can operate.
Using appropriately gated frequency counter or the spectrum analyser, the CW signal or the carrier breakthrough shall
be measured.
If adequate measurement stability cannot be achieved by this method, then the supplier shall make available an
appropriate method to place the transmitter in a mode that allows the frequency of the carrier or a pair of sidebands to
be measured.
NOTE 2: For systems that do not shut down on loss of synchronization, frequency accuracy should also be
measured in the non-synchronized condition.
4.2.6 RF spectrum mask
RF spectrum mask measurements are to be conducted at the lowest, mid-band and highest channel of the unit under test.
Objective:
To verify that the output spectrum is within the specified limits of the relevant EN/ETS.
Test Instruments:
1) Spectrum Analyser;
2) Plotter.

Test Procedure:
The transmitter output port shall be connected to either a Spectrum Analyser via an attenuator or an artificial load with
some means of monitoring the emissions with a Spectrum Analyser. The Spectrum Analyser shall have a variable
persistence display or a digital storage facility. When not stated in the relevant EN/ETS, the resolution bandwidth,
frequency span, scan time and video filter settings of the Spectrum Analyser are to be set in accordance with the
following indications. A power splitter or coupler may be required if the TS requires an RF link from the CRS before it
can operate.

See note 2 for TS settings.
NOTE 1: 5 × channel spacing < sweep width < 7× channel spacing.
NOTE 2: The spectrum analyser settings for RF power Spectrum Measurement for TDMA Terminal Stations (TS)
are depending on the burst duration. For a burst duration of ≈50 µs, the recommended settings are IF
bandwidth ≈30 kHz and video bandwidth ≈10 kHz.
For other pulse durations, the recommended settings are as following:
- IF bandwidth ≈ 30 kHz × 50µs/ (pulse duration in µs);
- Video bandwidth ≈ 10 kHz × 50µs/ (pulse duration in µs);
- The supplier has to declare the settings.
NOTE 3: For TDMA/OFDMA Terminal Stations (TS), for this test, the TSs should be modulated with the
maximum number of sub-carriers supported. The manufacturer shall declare the worst-case configuration
and have available supporting evidence. Typically this will include the highest and lowest sub-carrier
frequencies.
With the transmitter modulated by a signal having the characteristics given in the relevant EN/ETS, the transmitter
power density, (including the spectral lines at the symbol rate if stated in the EN/ETS), shall be measured by the
Spectrum Analyser and recorded. Where possible, transmitter spectral power density plots at the lowest, mid-band and
highest frequencies of the supplier's declared operating range are to be recorded.
4.2.7 Remote Frequency Control
Remote frequency control is an optional feature. However, when fitted the function shall be tested during the frequency
accuracy test. If necessary, repeat test as in clause 4.2.5 with frequency settings controlled using the remote frequency
control option.
4.2.8 Spectral lines at the symbol rate
The test for spectral lines at the symbol rate is performed at the same time as the RF spectrum mask, see clause 4.2.6 if
applicable to the standard.
