scope:

The present document applies to the following fixed digital radio systems (FDRS) types: 1) Point-to-multipoint FDRS intended for operation in frequency bands that require co-ordination; 2) Antennas for point-to-multipoint FDRS and antennas for point-to-point FDRS used at the terminal and / or repeater station of point-to-multipoint FDRS systems. These antennas may be either an integral part or may be used as a standalone part of the equipment (outdoor unit). For point-to-multipoint equipment operating in the frequency range below 1 GHz the limits of the essential phenomena off-axis EIRP density (RPE), antenna gain and cross-polar discrimination as well as their test methods may be defined by the notified body according to the Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&T TE Directive) due to lack of a Harmonized Standard.
