ÖNORM EN 300831 V 1.2.1

The present document covers the assessment of Mobile Earth Stations (MES) used within Satellite Personal Communications Networks (S-PCN), and ancillary equipment in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions from the enclosure port of the equipment are not included in the present document. Such specific technical specifications are found in the relevant product EN. The present document specifies the applicable EMC tests, the test methods, the limits, and the minimum performance criteria for digital radio equipment as defined in annex B and for the associated ancillary equipment. The environment classification used in the present document refers to the environment classification used in the Generic Standards EN 50081-1 [3] and EN 50082-1 [4], except the vehicular environment class which refers to ISO 7637-1 [13]. The EMC requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility for apparatus at residential, commercial, light industrial and vehicular environments. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference, which is producing individually repeated transient phenomena, or a continuous phenomenon, is permanently present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or the interfered part, or both. For a multimode radio station, the present document only applies to the radio station when operated in the S-PCN mode. Compliance of S-PCN Mobile Earth Stations (MES) radio equipment to the requirements of the present document does not signify compliance to any requirements related to the use of the equipment (i.e. licensing requirements). Compliance to the (...abbreviated)
