EN 300 329 Radio Equipment and Systems (RES); ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) for Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) Equipment

This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) covers the assessment of radio communication and ancillary equipment in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

This ETS specifies the minimum performance and the methods of measurements of EMC on Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) radio and ancillary equipment.

This ETS specifies the applicable EMC tests, the limits, and the performance criteria for digital radio equipment as described in ETS 300 175-2 [4] and I-ETS 300 176 [5], operating in the frequency range 1880 to 1900 MHz, and for the associated ancillary equipment.

The environment classification used in this ETS refers to the environment classification used in the Generic Standards EN 50081-1 [1] and EN 50082-1 [2], except the vehicular environment class which refers to ISO 7637 [6], [7].

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.

This ETS may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference, which is producing individually repeated transient phenomena, or a continuous phenomena, 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.

Compliance of radio equipment to the requirements of this ETS does not signify compliance to any requirement related to the use of the equipment (i.e. licensing requirements).

Compliance to this ETS does not signify compliance to any safety requirements. However, it is the responsibility of the assessor of the equipment that any observation regarding the equipment becoming dangerous or unsafe as a result of the application of the tests of this ETS, should be recorded in the test report.
