Overview

SIST EN 301 489-26 V2.3.2:2005 is a harmonized European standard developed by SIST, in association with ETSI, that specifies the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for radio equipment and services. Part 26 of this standard addresses the specific EMC conditions for CDMA 1x spread spectrum base stations, repeaters, and ancillary equipment. The scope of this edition includes an update to cover Public Access Mobile Radio (PAMR) applications and incorporates general updates to align with evolving industry needs.

This standard is critical for manufacturers and operators to ensure that CDMA 1x radio equipment and associated devices operate without causing harmful electromagnetic interference and comply with European regulatory directives, such as the EMC and R&TTE Directives.

Key Topics

• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Establishes criteria and test methods to minimize electromagnetic interference in CDMA 1x base stations and related equipment.
• CDMA 1x Spread Spectrum Technology: Focuses on equipment utilizing Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) 1x protocols, including multi-carrier and PAMR systems.
• Performance Assessment: Details procedures to assess Frame Error Rate (FER) during immunity and emission testing, ensuring reliable operation under interference.
• Test Conditions and Exclusion Bands: Defines environmental and technical parameters for testing, including specific exclusion bands for transmitters, receivers, and repeaters.
• Special Conditions for PAMR: Outlines particular EMC performance criteria for base stations supporting PAMR applications.
• Applicability Overview: Provides tables summarizing emission and immunity test applicability across equipment ports.

Applications

SIST EN 301 489-26 V2.3.2:2005 is widely applicable across the telecommunications sector, particularly for organizations involved in:

• Design and Manufacturing: Ensuring that CDMA 1x base stations, repeaters, and ancillary equipment meet EMC regulatory requirements before market deployment.
• Telecommunications Network Operations: Assuring base station infrastructure operates reliably in diverse radio environments, avoiding service interruptions or data loss due to electromagnetic disturbances.
• Compliance Testing Facilities: Laboratories use this standard as a reference for conducting EMC testing of radio equipment covered under its scope.
• PAMR Network Implementation: Facilitates the deployment of Public Access Mobile Radio systems, meeting specific EMC criteria as included in the updated edition.
• Regulatory Conformance: Supporting declarations of conformity with the EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) and the R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC) for radio equipment in Europe.

Related Standards

To ensure comprehensive EMC compliance, SIST EN 301 489-26 V2.3.2:2005 should be used in conjunction with the following standards:

• EN 301 489-1: Common technical requirements for EMC of radio equipment and services. Part 26 builds upon the general provisions in Part 1, introducing specific conditions for CDMA 1x equipment.
• TIA/EIA/IS-2000.2-1 and TIA-97-E-1: Referenced for definitions and test environment specifications, especially relevant for equipment supporting multi-carrier and PAMR CDMA systems.
• ITU-R SM.329-10: International guidance on unwanted emissions in the spurious domain.
• European Directives: EMC Directive (89/336/EEC), R&TTE Directive (1999/5/EC), and the framework for technical standards (98/34/EC).

These related standards provide a comprehensive framework for assessing and ensuring electromagnetic compatibility of advanced radio infrastructure, supporting robust and interference-free mobile communication networks across Europe.

1 Scope The present document, together with EN 301 489-1 [1], covers the assessment of CDMA 1x spread spectrum base station equipment, repeaters and associated ancillary equipment in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions from the enclosure port of radio equipment (Base Station (BS), and repeaters) are not included in the present document. Such technical specifications are found in the relevant product standards for the effective use of the radio spectrum. The present document specifies the applicable test conditions, performance assessment and performance criteria of CDMA 1x spread spectrum base station radio equipment, repeaters and associated ancillary equipment. Examples of base station equipment covered by the present document are given in annex A. In case of differences (for instance concerning special conditions, definitions, abbreviations) between the present document and EN 301 489-1 [1], the provisions of the present document take precedence. The environmental classification and the emission and immunity requirements used in the present document are as stated in EN 301 489-1 [1], except for any special conditions included in the present document. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. • References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific. • For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. • For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.
