ETSI ETSI EN 302 245 V2.1.1 (2018-06) 8 3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations 3.1 Definitions For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and the following apply: amplitude imbalance: error caused by different amplification of the I and Q signals antenna port: port of an apparatus which is designed, in normal operation, to be connected to an antenna using coaxial cable
broadcasting service: radiocommunication service in which the transmissions are intended for direct reception by the general public NOTE: This service may include sound transmissions, television transmissions or other types of transmission. channel bandwidth: frequency band of defined width (as a multiple of the carrier grid) including safety margin for operation on adjacent channels, located symmetrically around a carrier frequency in the carrier grid class of emission: set of characteristics of an emission, designated by standard symbols NOTE: Type of modulation of the main carrier, modulating signal, type of information to be transmitted, and also, if appropriate, any additional signal characteristics. dBc: decibels relative to the unmodulated carrier power of the emission NOTE: In the cases which do not have a carrier, for example in some digital modulation schemes where the carrier is not accessible for measurement, the reference level equivalent to dBc is decibels relative to the mean power P. DRM transmitter: device comprising a DRM exciter, RF amplifier and RF system filter enclosure port: physical boundary of the apparatus through which electromagnetic fields may radiate or impinge NOTE: In the case of integral antenna equipment, this port is inseparable from the antenna port. harmonic: component of order greater than 1 of the Fourier series of a periodic quantity harmonic number: integral number given by the ratio of the frequency of a harmonic to the fundamental frequency NOTE: Second harmonic = 2 × fundamental frequency. intermodulation products: unwanted frequencies resulting from intermodulation between carriers or harmonics of emission, or between any oscillations generated to produce the carrier mean power: average power supplied to the antenna port by a transmitter during an interval of time sufficiently long compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation envelope taken under normal operating conditions multiplex: stream of all the digital data carrying one or more services within a single physical channel necessary bandwidth: for a given class of emission, the width of the frequency band which is sufficient to ensure the transmission of information at the rate and with the quality required under specified conditions out-of-band emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies immediately outside the necessary bandwidth which results from the modulation process, but excluding spurious emissions quadrature error: error caused by phase shift between the I and Q signals reference bandwidth: bandwidth in which the emission level is specified RF system filter: filter connected to the output of the RF amplifier to control output spectrum NOTE: The RF system filter may be internal or external to the transmitter casing. SIST EN 302 245 V2.1.1:2018



ETSI ETSI EN 302 245 V2.1.1 (2018-06) 9 RMS power: the apparent power of an AC power that is calculated by multiplying root-mean-square (rms) current by the root mean square voltage NOTE 1: In a purely resistive circuit this is held to be the equivalent heating effect of a DC power and can be deemed to be true power. In a circuit that consists of reactance as well as resistance the apparent power is greater than the true power (the vector difference between true power and apparent power is called reactive power).
True Power = Vrms × (Irms ∆ cos φ)
Where Δ cos φ is the phase difference between voltage and current introduced by the reactance of the load. NOTE 2: From note 1 it becomes clear that unless any measuring system can be completely devoid of reactance then the measured power cannot be considered to be RMS power. It therefore becomes apparent that this parameter would be difficult to measure with any degree of accuracy at RF frequencies. spurious emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information NOTE: Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products but exclude out-of-band emissions. unwanted emissions: spurious emissions and out-of-band emissions 3.2 Symbols For the purposes of the present document, the following symbols apply: μ micro, 10-6 3.3 Abbreviations For the purposes of the present document, the following abbreviations apply: dB Decibel, logarithmic ratio (tenths of a "Bel") dBm dB relative to one milliwatt DRM Digital Radio Mondiale EN European Norm EUT Equipment Under Test HF High Frequency I In-phase component of a signal LF Low Frequency MER Modulation Error Ratio MF Medium Frequency N Noise power OFDM Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex Q Quadrature phase component of a signal RF Radio Frequency RMS Root Mean Square s second (unit of time) V Volt W Watt SIST EN 302 245 V2.1.1:2018

The equipment shall comply with all the technical requirements of the present document which are identified as applicable in annex A at all times when operating within the boundary limits of the declared operational environmental profile. 4.2 Conformance requirements 4.2.1 Rated output power 4.2.1.1 Definition The rated output power is the mean power that the transmitter shall deliver at its antenna port under the manufacturers specified conditions of operation. NOTE: It is, however, recommended that this parameter is not quoted as RMS power. 4.2.1.2 Limit The mean output power shall be the rated output power under normal operating conditions as defined by the manufacturer. 4.2.1.3 Conformance Conformance tests as defined in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out. 4.2.2 Frequency stability 4.2.2.1 Definition The frequency stability of an emission is the variation of frequency against a predetermined time scale. 4.2.2.2 Limit 4.2.2.2.1 DRM transmitters operating below 30 MHz For a period of not less than ninety days, the frequency of the transmitter shall stay within the tolerance of ±10 Hz. 4.2.2.2.2 DRM transmitters operating between 30 MHz and 300 MHz For a period of not less than ninety days, the frequency of the transmitter shall stay within the tolerance of ±100 Hz. 4.2.2.3 Conformance Conformance tests as defined in clause 5.3.2 shall be carried out.

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] and the
following apply:
amplitude imbalance: error caused by different amplification of the I and Q signals
antenna port: port of an apparatus which is designed, in normal operation, to be connected to an antenna using coaxial
cable
broadcasting service: radiocommunication service in which the transmissions are intended for direct reception by the
general public
NOTE: This service may include sound transmissions, television transmissions or other types of transmission.
channel bandwidth: frequency band of defined width (as a multiple of the carrier grid) including safety margin for
operation on adjacent channels, located symmetrically around a carrier frequency in the carrier grid
class of emission: set of characteristics of an emission, designated by standard symbols
NOTE: Type of modulation of the main carrier, modulating signal, type of information to be transmitted, and
also, if appropriate, any additional signal characteristics.
dBc: decibels relative to the unmodulated carrier power of the emission
NOTE: In the cases which do not have a carrier, for example in some digital modulation schemes where the
carrier is not accessible for measurement, the reference level equivalent to dBc is decibels relative to the
mean power P.
DRM transmitter: device comprising a DRM exciter, RF amplifier and RF system filter
enclosure port: physical boundary of the apparatus through which electromagnetic fields may radiate or impinge
NOTE: In the case of integral antenna equipment, this port is inseparable from the antenna port.
harmonic: component of order greater than 1 of the Fourier series of a periodic quantity
harmonic number: integral number given by the ratio of the frequency of a harmonic to the fundamental frequency
NOTE: Second harmonic = 2 × fundamental frequency.
intermodulation products: unwanted frequencies resulting from intermodulation between carriers or harmonics of
emission, or between any oscillations generated to produce the carrier
mean power: average power supplied to the antenna port by a transmitter during an interval of time sufficiently long
compared with the lowest frequency encountered in the modulation envelope taken under normal operating conditions
multiplex: stream of all the digital data carrying one or more services within a single physical channel
necessary bandwidth: for a given class of emission, the width of the frequency band which is sufficient to ensure the
transmission of information at the rate and with the quality required under specified conditions
out-of-band emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies immediately outside the necessary bandwidth which
results from the modulation process, but excluding spurious emissions
quadrature error: error caused by phase shift between the I and Q signals
reference bandwidth: bandwidth in which the emission level is specified
RF system filter: filter connected to the output of the RF amplifier to control output spectrum
NOTE: The RF system filter may be internal or external to the transmitter casing.
ETSI

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
9 ETSI EN 302 245 V2.1.1 (2018-06)
RMS power: the apparent power of an AC power that is calculated by multiplying root-mean-square (rms) current by
the root mean square voltage
NOTE 1: In a purely resistive circuit this is held to be the equivalent heating effect of a DC power and can be
deemed to be true power. In a circuit that consists of reactance as well as resistance the apparent power is
greater than the true power (the vector difference between true power and apparent power is called
reactive power).
True Power = Vrms × (Irms ∆ cos φ)
Where Δ cos φ is the phase difference between voltage and current introduced by the reactance of the
load.
NOTE 2: From note 1 it becomes clear that unless any measuring system can be completely devoid of reactance
then the measured power cannot be considered to be RMS power. It therefore becomes apparent that this
parameter would be difficult to measure with any degree of accuracy at RF frequencies.
spurious emissions: emission on a frequency or frequencies which are outside the necessary bandwidth and the level of
which may be reduced without affecting the corresponding transmission of information
NOTE: Spurious emissions include harmonic emissions, parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and
frequency conversion products but exclude out-of-band emissions.
unwanted emissions: spurious emissions and out-of-band emissions
