scope:

The present document specifies the minimum and optional requirements for system parameters of Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) Point to Multipoint (P-MP) Radio Systems in the terrrestrial Fixed Service operating in frequency bands in the range 3 GHz to 11 GHz. The present document covers the following typical Point-to-Multipoint (P-MP) applications: - voice; - fax; - Voice-band data; - telex, related to analogue interfaces; - data up to 64 kbit/s or beyond with optional interfaces; - ISDN; - digital video; - digital audio, related to digital interfaces. Radio terminals from different manufacturers are not intended to inter-work at radio frequency (i.e. no common air interface). The present document defines the requirements of radio terminal and radio-relay equipment including the interfaces. The requirements for multiplex, network management and antenna / feeder equipment may be addressed elsewhere. Testing to the present document will be undertaken with the guidance of a generic test methods document EN 301 126 [22], which is under preparation.
