ÖNORM EN 301442 V 1.1.1

The present document applies to Mobile Earth Station (MES) radio equipment which have the following characteristics: these MES have both transmitted and receive capabilities and operate in a Satellite-Personal Communications Network (S-PCN). An S-PCN MES may be handheld, portable, vehicle-mounted, host connected, semi-fixed or fixed equipment, or may be an element in a multi-mode terminal. It may consist of a number of modules with associated connections and user interface, or may be a self contained single unit; these LMESs are controlled and monitored by a Network Control Facility (NCF). The NCF is outside the scope of the present document; if the MES is an element in a multi-mode terminal, unless otherwise stated in the present document, its requirements apply only to the S-PCN MES element of the terminal operating in the MSS frequency bands; these MES are capable in operating in all or part of the frequency bands. 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: A list of such ENs is included on the ETSI web site.
