RAST Resolution 10/2-3Generic Standards

• RAST Resolution 10/2-3 - resolves 2 (c)
• facilitate innovation and simplify market access
  by the
• adoption of generic standards for such products
  which
• provide basic product definition intended for
  radio
• co-existence that can be used for compliance or
  approval
• regimes offering global applicability
• The objective is to agree on common generic
  specifications for low power/short range devices,
  and where appropriate seek harmonised spectrum
  allocations on a global basis
• The availability of generic standards facilitates
  the introduction of new technologies, in domestic
  and business environments

Frequency Allocations for Short Range Devices
(SRDs) in Europe

• CEPT Administrations, working within the
  Electronic Communications Committee (CEPT-ECC),
  co-operate to harmonise their National
  regulations.  The ECC Short-Range Devices
  Maintenance Group (SRDMG) maintains
• ERC Recommendation 70-03, which CEPT
  Administrations are encouraged to implement in
  order to maximise freedom of movement for
  radiocommunications equipment
• CEPT Recommendations and Decisions can be
  downloaded from the European Radiocommunications
  Office web site http//www.ero.dk/

Generic Standards and SRDs

• The concept of Generic Standards for Short Range
  (low power)
• Devices (SRDs) facilities innovation and
  minimises regulation
• The CEPT Recommendation 70-03 covers a full range
  of SRDs as indicated,
• ETSI in turn also provides a range of product
  specific SRD standards
• to facilitate these applications
• Details are provided in the following slides
• The ETSI report on Spectrum Use - TR 102 137 -
  Use of Radio
• Frequency Spectrum by Equipment meeting ETSI
  Standards
• provides details of the relevant each frequency
  band and regulatory
• information

Conclusion

• Generic Standards are valuable tools that provide
  for
• early market access for new and innovative
  products
• In many cases a product specific standard will be
  
• required where the generic document can be used
  as a
• base from which to develop a product specific
  variant
• ETSI is committed to providing the market with
  the
• standards required in a timely manner
• Generic standards assist in achieving this goal
