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 [2] 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").

The left hand edge of the figure 1 shows the different clauses of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [2].
For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Dotted lines indicate that at the time of publication of the present
document essential requirements in these areas have to be adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements
are adopted, and as far and as long as they are applicable, they will justify individual standards whose scope is likely to
be specified by function or interface type.
The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum by radio equipment. The
scopes of these standards are specified either by frequency (normally in the case where frequency bands are
harmonized) or by radio equipment type.
For article 3.1b the diagram shows EN 301 489, the multi-part product EMC standard for radio used under the EMC
Directive [3].
For article 3.1a the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LV Directive [4] and new
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. New standards covering acoustic safety may also be
required.
The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. A particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both. A radio
spectrum standard will apply if it is radio equipment. An article 3.3 standard will apply as well only if the relevant
essential requirement under the R&TTE Directive [2] is adopted by the Commission and if the equipment in question is
covered by the scope of the corresponding standard. Thus, depending on the nature of the equipment, the essential
requirements under the R&TTE Directive [2] may be covered in a set of standards.
The modularity principle has been taken because:
• it minimizes the number of standards needed. Because equipment may, in fact, have multiple interfaces and
functions it is not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may
occur in an equipment;
• it provides scope for standards to be added:
- under article 3.2 when new frequency bands are agreed; or
- under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions
without requiring alteration of standards that are already published;
• it clarifies, simplifies and promotes the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity
assessment.
Other document directly associated with the present document:
• EN 301 489-14 [5].

1 Scope
The present document applies to transmitting equipment for the terrestrial digital television broadcasting service.
The types of equipment covered by the present document are as follows:
• Transmitting equipment for digital television broadcasting service, with 7 MHz and 8 MHz RF channel
bandwidths, operating in the CEPT frequency bands. These frequencies are currently within the television
Bands III, IV and V.
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [2] (R&TTE Directive),
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 [2] 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.

irrespective of the number of carriers employed.
4.2.1.2 Method of measurement (essential test suite)
4.2.1.2.1 Initial conditions
Test environment:
- the normal operating environment, as declared by the equipment manufacturer.
Test frequencies:
1) the lowest operating frequency of the EUT;
2) the highest operating frequency of the EUT;
3) a frequency mid-way between 1) and 2) above.
Test arrangement (see figure A.1):
1) connect the EUT to the test load, via the coupling device;
2) connect the spectrum analyser to the coupling device.
For the purposes of this test no test signal is required, the manufacturer shall ensure that the full rated output power of
the transmitter will be maintained during this test.
4.2.1.2.2 Procedure
1) operate the EUT at each of the test frequencies as defined in clause 4.2.1.2.1;
2) measure the results on the spectrum analyser.
4.2.1.2.3 Test requirements
The results obtained shall be compared to the limits in clause 4.2.1.3 in order to demonstrate compliance.
4.2.1.3 Limit
Spurious emissions shall not exceed the values set out in table 4.1 additionally shown in figures 4.1 and 4.2, for the
frequency range 9 kHz to 4,5 GHz.
NOTE: In the case of a DVB-T transmitter supplied without an internal bandpass output filter, the manufacturer
shall specify the characteristics of the filter necessary to fulfil the spurious emission limits defined in
table 4.1. The manufacturer shall include this information in their test report.
