SSH EN 301 511 V7.0.1:2000

Global System for Mobile communications (GSM); Harmonized standard for mobile stations in the GSM 900 and DCS 1800 bands covering essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE directive (1999/5/EC) (GSM 13.11 version 7.0.1 Release 1998)

Scope

The present document applies to the following radio telecommunications terminal equipment types:
1 GSM mobile station.
This radio equipment type is for operation within the Digital cellular telecommunications system in the GSM 900
and/or DCS 1800 frequency bands as shown in table 1.
Table 1: Frequency bands for GSM900 and DCS1800 Mobile Station system
Type TX: RX:
P-GSM900 890-915 MHz 935-960 MHz
DCS1800 1710-1785 MHz 1805-1880 MHz
E-GSM900 880-915 MHz 925-960 MHz
R-GSM900 876-915 MHz 921-960 MHz
with a channel separation of 200 kHz, utilising constant envelope modulation and carrying traffic channels according to
the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) principle.
This EN is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE Directive) [1] 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".
This EN covers the general access requirements for terminal equipment for Phase 2 and Phase 2+ Releases 1996, 1997
and 1998. This EN constitutes the equivalent of the GSM document GSM 13.11 version 7.0.0. This EN does not cover
the GPRS Class A mobiles and the GPRS only mobiles.
For each test purpose and its corresponding conformance requirement, a reference is given to the test method in
EN 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2]. The requirements apply at the air interface which may be stimulated to perform the
tests by additional equipment if necessary.
The measurement uncertainty is described in EN 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2].
In addition to this EN, 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 this EN.
NOTE 1: A list of such ENs is included on the web site <http://www.newapproach.org>.
EN 300 607-1 (GSM 11.10-1) [2] constitutes the conformance test suite for GSM. The verification of the conformance
requirements in this standard is based on the tests described in this reference. The set of requirements in EN 300 607-1
(GSM 11.10-1) [2] and the set of requirements in this standard need not be identical.
Some requirements only apply to specific types of mobile station (e.g. data tests only apply to mobile stations with a
data facility, tests that only apply to GSM900 or only to DCS1 800 or to both). The present document indicates the
specific test which should be carried out for each mobile station type.
An active accessory is covered by this standard if it modifies the terminal performance in an aspect which affects
conformance to essential requirements.
NOTE 2: Only active devices are subject to this standard. Accessories may be tested with specific terminals, and
either approved for use with those terminals only, or may possibly be approved for use with a wider range
of terminals, depending on the nature and effect of the accessory.
