scope:

The present document details standardized procedures for conformance testing of equipment for point to point Digital Radio-Relay Systems (DRRS). Standardized procedures are required in order to fulfil ERC/DEC/(97)10 [1] on the mutual recognition, within CEPT, of the results of conformance tests on equipment carried out in individual CEPT countries. The present document reflects the principles and definitions set out in the generic wordings for Standards on DRRS characteristics TR 101 036-1 [2] which defines the generic format for the editorial and technical content for all individual equipment standards relating to digital fixed point to point radio relay systems. The present document describes harmonized test objectives and test procedures for the parameters detailed in TR 101 036-1 [2]. Thus, it is intended to be applied in conjunction with the individual equipment standards and will enable commonality of test results, irrespective of the accredited body carrying out the test.
