Satellite Earth Stations and Systems (SES); Satellite Personal Communications Networks (S-PCN); Mobile Earth Stations (MESs) Including Handheld Earth Stations@ for S-PCN in the 2@0 GHz Bands@ Providing Voice and/or Data Communications under the Mobile Sat
TheEuropean Telecommunication Standard (ETS) sets sets out the minimum performance requirements and technical characteristics of Mobile Earth Stations (MESs) with both transmit and receive capabilities for operation in a Satellite Personal Communication Network (S-PCN). An S-PCN MES may be handheld@ portable@ vehicle-mounted@ host connected@ semi-fixed or fixed equipment@ or may be an element in a multi-mode terminal; it may consist of a number of modules with associated connections and user interface@ or may be a self contained single unit. If the MES is an element in a multi-mode terminal@ unless otherwise stated in the present document@ its requirements apply only to the S-PCN MES element of the terminal operating in one or more of the Mobile Satellite Service (MSS) frequency bands. The requirements of the present document are divided in two major categories: - unwanted emission limits: to protect other radio services from harmful interference generated by the MES in normal use; - MES Control and Monitoring Functions (CMF): to protect other radio services from unwanted transmissions from the MES. The CMF in each MES is capable of answering to commands from the Network Control Facilities (NCF) for its S-PCN. NOTE: The requirements for NCF for S-PCN are contained in ETS 300 735[1}.
