Overview

SIST EN 301 489-24 V1.3.1:2006 is a Slovenian national standard identical to EN 301 489-24, part of the broader ETSI EN 301 489 series. This standard addresses Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements specifically for IMT-2000 CDMA Direct Spread (UTRA) mobile and portable radio terminal equipment and associated ancillary equipment. Developed by the Slovenian Institute for Standardization (SIST), this standard ensures that user equipment (UE) and its ancillary devices in 3G mobile networks meet consistent EMC performance and testing criteria, contributing to safe, reliable operation in a shared radio spectrum environment.

Key Topics

• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Focuses on minimizing electromagnetic interference and ensuring immunity, so radio equipment does not cause or fall victim to unacceptable levels of electromagnetic disturbance.
• IMT-2000 CDMA Direct Spread (UTRA): Applies to third-generation (3G) digital cellular mobile and portable devices using CDMA direct spread technology as part of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS).
• User Equipment (UE): Covers mobile stations, portable terminals, and associated equipment intended for use with IMT-2000 CDMA Direct Spread networks.
• Ancillary Equipment: Includes accessories and add-ons necessary for the intended operation of the UE.
• Testing and Performance Criteria: Outlines test conditions, immunity requirements, and assessment methods to validate EMC compliance.
• Scope Exclusions: Base station and network infrastructure equipment are not included; instead, the standard applies to mobile/portable devices and equipment used in a fixed location connected to AC mains.

Applications

SIST EN 301 489-24 V1.3.1:2006 is crucial throughout the lifecycle of radio equipment for IMT-2000 networks, being applied by:

• Manufacturers: Ensures mobile terminals and portable user devices comply with the harmonized EMC requirements for market entry, CE marking, and safe operation within Europe.
• Test Laboratories: Provides a reference for testing procedures, test signal arrangements, immunity, and emission assessments for user equipment and their ancillaries.
• Importers and Distributors: Assures compliance to avoid regulatory issues and improve interoperability with cellular and wireless services.
• Network Operators: Aids in maintaining network reliability, as compliant equipment reduces risk of interference that degrades network and service quality.

Typical equipment examples under this standard include 3G mobile phones, portable modems, and data cards utilizing UMTS CDMA Direct Spread technology.

Related Standards

• EN 301 489-1: General EMC requirements for radio equipment and services; serves as a foundational reference for part 24 and takes precedence except where part 24 specifies otherwise.
• ETSI TS 125 101: Radio transmission and reception specifications for UMTS FDD User Equipment.
• ETSI TS 125 102: Radio transmission and reception specifications for UMTS TDD User Equipment.
• ETSI TS 134 108: Test environments for conformance testing of UMTS user equipment.
• ETSI TS 134 109: Logical test interface and special conformance testing for UMTS.

Practical Value

Implementing SIST EN 301 489-24 V1.3.1:2006 ensures:

• Reduced risk of interference between devices in congested wireless environments.
• Consistent equipment performance with respect to radio spectrum use.
• Regulatory compliance for seamless market access across Europe.
• Improved end-user experience by maintaining high network and device reliability.
• Future-proofing designs by aligning with standardized EMC requirements for emerging 3G technologies.

By specifying clear EMC assessment criteria, this standard helps both industry and authorities maintain high technical standards for mobile communications equipment, supporting safe and efficient use of the radio spectrum.

4 Test conditions
For the purpose of the present document, the test conditions of EN 301 489-1 [1], clause 4, shall apply as appropriate.
Further product related test conditions for digital cellular mobile and portable radio equipment are specified in the
present document.
4.1 General
Whenever the Equipment Under Test (EUT) is provided with a detachable antenna, the EUT shall be tested with the
antenna fitted in a manner typical of normal intended use, unless specified otherwise.
4.2 Arrangements for test signals
The provisions of EN 301 489-1 [1], clause 4.2 shall apply with the following modifications.
The wanted RF signal nominal frequency shall be selected by setting the UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel
Number (UARFCN) to an appropriate number.
A communication link shall be set up with a suitable base station simulator (hereafter called "the test system"). The test
system shall be located outside of the test environment.
Where possible the test of the transmitter section and receiver section of the EUT may be carried out simultaneously to
reduce test time;
Immunity tests shall be performed in two modes of operation:
- with a communication link established (traffic mode); and
- in the idle mode.
When the EUT is required to be in the traffic mode, a call is set up according to the Generic call set-up procedure and
