The present document applies to the following digital fixed radio systems (DFRS) types:
1) point-to-point systems intended for operation in frequency bands that require co-ordination;
2) point-to-point systems intended for operation in frequency bands that do not require co-ordination;
3) antennas for point-to-point DFRS.
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".
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.
NOTE 1: A list of such ENs is included on the ETSI web site at http://www.newapproach.org.
Table 2 summarizes the ETSI standards applicable to point-to-point DFRS, from which the technical parameters within
the present document have been extracted.
NOTE 2: The third digit of the EN version number is not considered essential for dated reference purposes because
the ETSI Technical Working Procedures reserve this digit for editorially changed versions, thereby not
affecting the technical parameters within that version.
