Electromagnetic Compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Maritime Mobile Earth Stations (MMES) operating in the 1@5 GHz and 1@6 GHz bands providing voice and direct printing for the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS); Technical char
The present document provides specifications for the standardization of transmitheceive Maritime Mobile Earth Stations (MMES) operating in the 1@5 GHz and 1@6 GHz bands under the Global Maritime Distress and Safety Systems (GMDSS) in order to ensure general safety and limit interference to radio communication systems. NOTE: The present document is for MMES equipment that meets the requirements of IMO A.808 (19) [6] based systems only. The present document applies to MMES radio equipment@ which have the following characteristics: - the MMES is ship mounted; - these MMES are controlled and monitored by a Network Control Facility (NCF). The NCF is outside the scope of the present document; - the MMES operates through geostationary satellites as part of a network providing voice@ direct printing and data communications.
