Appendix O to the ACP WGM/8 Report
ETSI Brief
Note that the following is an edited version of a presentation given to
cover status of draft EN 302 186 for 14-14.5 GHz AES by Tony Azzarelli
in Sept. 2003;
This is being provided informally by Diane Revell on 26 Nov. 2003 to
some members of ICAO ANC WG-M relative to a discussion during the
meeting regarding the ETSI EN cycle raised during discussion of paper
ACP WG-M/8 WP-23 relative to GNSS SARP’s and its reference to a
draft update to EN 301 473 relative to GLONASS receivers protection.
The purpose is to provide some information on the ETSI cycle for EN’s
not to provide status on either of the specific EN’s for AES.

General Information
 Technical Committee on Satellite Earth Stations (TC-SES) is the group
in ETSI to deal with Satellite equipment in general.
 TC-SES is made up of Working Groups
 One of the ETSI deliverables is the European Norm (EN), which is a
document that is legally bound within the European Union and
accepted by other ETSI member countries (total of 35 European
Administration as of Oct. 2002).
Page 2
Two-step Approval Process and Public
Enquiry
 TC-SES can approve a draft EN for the Two-step Approval Process
(TAP). This takes nearly 1 year to approve as a legally binding
document. If no reference document is drafted for a particular work
item or it is an update to an existing EN the process can be shortened
by about 1 year.
 The Public Enquiry Phase (PE) is the first step of TAP, which can
typically take 4 months;
 In this phase comments are received on the draft EN in question from
the members of ETSI.
Page 3
Resolution Meeting and Start of Voting
 A Resolution meeting is set at ETSI to resolve any comments received
during the Public Enquiry phase.
 Comments are analyzed and replies created for input to the Resolution
meeting;
 When the new version of the draft EN is approved at the Resolution
meeting, the document will go to the next TC-SES meeting for final
approval.
 If approved the document will go to the Voting Phase, i.e. each (ETSI)
Administration will now have nearly 2 months to say:
– “yes” unconditionally;
or
– “no” with appropriate reason (mandatory).
Page 4
Voting Phase and Adoption
 When the voting phase is terminated (about a two-month period), the
votes are counted. Votes from each country are “weighted” based on
their membership fee (proportional to GDP);
 Quorum is 50% and Success is 71% of weighted votes;
 If vote on a EN is negative, then votes on EU countries are counted:
 If vote is positive then EN is adopted for all EU countries and
those others that voted in favour.
 If EN is adopted then it will be published by the EC into the Official
Journal of the European Communities.
 National Standard Organization will need to adopt it nationally if they
want it to apply to their legislation. Until then the EN will remain nonmandatory.

ETSI Group for L-band and S-band AES
 TC-SES WG AES
– Deals with L-band and S-band AES standard. Safety is also
considered here, by the adoption of EUROCAE/RTCA limits.

Directive (1999/5/EC)
Radio Spectrum
Decision
676/2002/EC
Page 10
1.2 Why the RTTE Directive (1) ?
Before the Directive….
 Radio type approval
required in every country
 Low Voltage Directive and
EMC Directive
 TTE Directive & SES
Directive required
compulsory testing
 Approval process lasts 2
years or more
Page 11
1.2 Why the RTTE Directive (2) ?
 Aim 1: to allow new equipment onto the
market quickly
– No more type approval
– Market surveillance instead
– LVD & EMC incorporated (one-stop shop)
– Lighter technical requirements
 Aim 2: to encourage harmonisation &
openness of use of radio spectrum
– Member states have to notify radio regulations
for use of radio spectrum
– Commission to establish equivalency of
national regulations
– BUT national regulation of spectrum use….
Page 12
1.2 Why the RTTE Directive (3) ?
 Aim 3: to increase competition for terminal
equipment
– Interworking no longer a requirement to
access the market
– Network operator has to publish interface
specifications
Page 13
1.3 What does a manufacturer need to do?
Meet the “essential requirements”
health & safety
electromagnetic compatibility
avoidance of harmful interference
(radio equipment only)
possibly others, if invoked by the Commission
Carry out « essential radio test suites »
Meet national radio interface regulations
Inform member state (if using
non-harmonised radio spectrum)

1.4.1 Harmonised Standards
Where apparatus meets the relevant
harmonised standards or parts thereof
whose reference numbers have been
published in the Official Journal of the
European Communities, Member States
shall presume compliance with those of
the essential requirements referred to in
Article 3 as are covered by the said
harmonised standards or parts thereof.
[Article 5.1]
Page 16
Harmonised Standards (1)
 European Standards (EN)
 Produced under a mandate from the European Commission
– And adopted by Member States
 Implement essential requirements of a
« New Approach » Directive (e.g. R&TTE, EMC)
 Adopted by National Standards Organisations
 Cited in the Official Journal of the European Communities
 Member states
required to
presume
conformity
