Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM) - Short Range Devices (SRD) - Ultra Low Power Active Medical Implants (ULP-AMI) and Peripherals (ULP-AMI-P) operating in the frequency range 402 MHz to 405 MHz - Part 2: Harmonized EN covering essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive

EN 301 839 shall be revised: 1. Generic definitions shall be used and inconsistencies be removed in EN 301 839-1 and -2.  2. At present EN 301 839-1 describes LBT as interference mitigation technology. It is suggested that also an alternative interference mitigation technology is introduced in EN 301 839-1. Possible candidates for this interference mitigation technology are: a duty cycle limitation to less than 0.1% a duty cycle limitation to less than 0.1% on one channel (300 kHz bandwidth) a power reduction to less than 250 nW Devices respecting this interference mitigation technology can coexist with devices using LBT. Note: subject referred to RM for considerations as agreed at ERM#23 (see summary record)
The present document applies to the following radio equipment types:
• Ultra Low Power Active Medical Implants (ULP-AMI);
• and Peripherals (ULP-AMI-P).
These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given below.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (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". An AIMD is regulated under the AIMD Directive 90/385/EEC [2]: radio parts contained therein (referred to herein as ULP-AMI and ULP-AMI-P for peripheral devices) are regulated under the Directive 1999/5/EC [1]. 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 [1] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document.

Where technical performance varies subject to environmental conditions, tests shall be carried out under a sufficient
variety of environmental conditions (within the boundary limits of the declared operational environmental profile) to
give confidence of compliance for the affected technical requirements.
5.2 Interpretation of the measurement results
The interpretation of the results recorded in a test report for the measurements described in the present document shall
be as follows:
• The measured value related to the corresponding limit will be used to decide whether an equipment meets the
requirements of the present document.
• The value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be included in the test
report.
• The recorded value of the measurement uncertainty shall be, for each measurement, equal to or lower than the
figures in table 1.
For the test methods, according to the present document, the measurement uncertainty figures shall be calculated in
accordance with TR 100 028 [4] and shall correspond to an expansion factor (coverage factor) k = 1,96 or k = 2 (which
provide confidence levels of respectively 95 % and 95,45 % in the case where the distributions characterizing the actual
measurement uncertainties are normal (Gaussian)).
Table 2 is based on such expansion factors.
