scope:

The present document applies to the following Short Range Device major equipment types:

1) Non-specific Short Range Devices.

2) Alarms, identification systems, radio-determination, telecommand, telemetry, etc.

3) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). 4) Detection, movement and alert applications.

These radio equipment types are capable of operating in the frequency bands within the 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz range as specified in table 1:

- either with a Radio Frequency (RF) output connection and dedicated antenna or with an integral antenna;

- for all types of modulati

- with or without speech.

Table 1 shows a list of the frequency bands as designated to Short Range Devices by some European Commission Decisions [i.4] and [i.5] and the CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.1] as known at the date of publication of the present document.

NOTE 1: It should be noted that table 1 represents the most widely implemented position within the European Union and the CEPT countries, but it should not be assumed that all designated bands are available in all countries.

NOTE 2: In addition, it should be noted that other frequency bands may be available for short range devices in a country within the frequency range 25 MHz to 1 000 MHz covered by the present document. See European Commission Decisions on Short Range Devices [i.4] and [i.5] and CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.1] as implemented through National Radio Interfaces (NRI) or additional NRI as relevant.

NOTE 3: On non-harmonized parameters, national administrations may impose certain conditions such as the type of modulation, frequency, channel/frequency separations, maximum transmitter radiated power, duty cycle, and the inclusion of an automatic transmitter shut-off facility, as a condition for the issue of Individual Rights for use of spectrum or General Authorization, or as a condition for use under "licence exemption" as it is in most cases for Short Range Devices.

The present document covers fixed stations, mobile stations and portable stations.
