To develop an ETSI candidate harmonised standard for the onboard aircraft GSM system. The candidate harmonised standard shall outline the essential requirements according to article 3.2 of the R&TTE directive for the system.  The GSM onboard system provides GSM access in the 1800 MHz band while inhibiting direct connectivity between onboard mobiles and terrestrial cellular networks.  The system will use elements from existing relevant harmonised standards (EN 301 502) where appropriate. Note: that the study does not include the airworthiness regulations, operational aspects or compatibility with the aircraft avionics.

Foreword

This Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee

Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM).

The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued

under Council Directive 98/34/EC [12] (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the

field of technical standards and regulations.

The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the

Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC [11] of the European Parliament

and of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual

recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive").

Technical specifications relevant to Directive 1999/5/EC [11] are given in annex A.

National transposition dates
Date of adoption of this EN: 11 April 2008
Date of latest announcement of this EN (doa): 31 July 2008
Date of latest publication of new National Standard

Date of withdrawal of any conflicting National Standard (dow): 31 January 2010
Introduction

The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to

cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive. The modular

structure is shown in EG 201 399 [13].

1 Scope

The present document applies to a system comprising the following radio equipment types:

1) an Onboard GSM Base Transceiver System (OBTS) supporting the GSM 1800 functions with specific

protocols for power constraints;

2) a Network Control Unit (NCU) preventing direct connection of the onboard mobile terminals with mobile

networks on the ground by raising the noise floor in the cabin.

These radio equipment types are capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given below:

Table 1: Radiocommunications service frequency bands
Radiocommunications service frequency bands
Transmit 1 (OBTS) 1 805 MHz to 1 880 MHz
Receive 1 (OBTS) 1 710 MHz to 1 785 MHz
Transmit 2 (NCU) 460 MHz to 470 MHz
Transmit 2 (NCU) 921 MHz to 960 MHz
Transmit 2 (NCU) 1 805 MHz to 1 880 MHz
Transmit 2 (NCU) 2 110 MHz to 2 170 MHz

It applies to equipment for continuous and discontinuous transmission of data and digital speech.

The present document applies only to radio equipment using a dedicated transmitting antenna that is designed as an

indispensable part of the system for usage on board an aircraft.

The system covered by the present document operates in accordance with the operational requirements as outlined in

the Decision CEPT/ECC/DEC/(06)07 [14].

The present document covers the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC (the 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".

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 may apply to equipment within the scope of the present

document.
NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

The present document does not cover equipment compliance with relevant civil aviation regulations. In this respect, a

GSMOBA system, for its installation and operation on board an aircraft is subject to additional national or international

civil aviation airworthiness certification requirements, for example to EUROCAE ED-14E [10].
