scope:

The present document specifies the essential requirements for point to point Digital Fixed Radio Systems (DFRS) operating in frequency bands, which require co-ordinated frequency planning. It is intended to cover the provisions of the R&TTE Directive [1] regarding 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] will apply to equipment within the scope of the present document.
