Overview
SIST EN 301 441:2001 is a harmonized European standard developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and adopted in Slovenia by SIST. This standard sets out essential requirements for Mobile Earth Stations (MESs), including handheld earth stations, used in Satellite Personal Communications Networks (S-PCN) under the Mobile Satellite Service (MSS), specifically in the 1.6 GHz and 2.4 GHz frequency bands. It addresses compliance with Article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive (now replaced by the Radio Equipment Directive), ensuring that MES equipment effectively uses radio spectrum while minimizing harmful interference.
This standard is relevant for manufacturers, network operators, conformity assessment bodies, and stakeholders involved in the design, production, or deployment of mobile satellite communication devices.
Key Topics
Scope and Equipment Types
SIST EN 301 441:2001 applies to radio equipment with both transmit and receive capabilities operating in S-PCN systems. MESs may be handheld, portable, vehicle-mounted, host-connected, semi-fixed, or fixed, and can be part of single or multi-mode terminals.Frequency Bands
- Transmit: 1610 MHz to 1626.5 MHz
- Receive: 1613.8 MHz to 1626.5 MHz and 2483.5 MHz to 2500.0 MHz
Essential Requirements under Article 3.2
The standard is focused on ensuring:- Efficient Spectrum Use: MESs must be constructed to use allocated spectrum efficiently, avoiding interference with other radio services.
- Conformance Testing: Detailed environmental and technical testing requirements, including temperature and voltage ranges, vibration, unwanted emissions, EIRP density, and control and monitoring functions.
- Emission Limits: Protects other radio services from excessive or unwanted radio frequency emissions during both active (carrier-on) and idle (carrier-off) states.
- Control and Monitoring: MESs must include specific functions to allow network operators to control and monitor transmission, thus further reducing risks of harmful interference.
Equipment Types and Modular Standards Approach
The modular structure of the standard simplifies compliance for equipment with multiple functionalities, allowing specific technical aspects to be addressed as needed.

Foreword
This Candidate Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical
Committee Satellite Earth Stations and Systems (SES).
The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued
under Council Directive 98/34/EC [3] (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the
field of technical standards and regulations.
The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the
Official Journal of the European Communities referencing the Directive 1999/5/EC [1] of the European Parliament and
of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual
recognition of their conformity ("the R&TTE Directive").

For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Their dotted lines indicate that no essential requirements in these
areas have yet been adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements are adopted, they will be elaborated in
individual standards whose scope is likely to be specified by function or interface type.
The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum. The scopes of these standards
are specified either by frequency (normally in the case where frequency bands are harmonized) or by radio equipment
type.
For article 3.1(b), the diagram shows the new single multi-part product EMC standard for radio, and the existing
collection of generic and base standards currently used under the EMC Directive. The parts of this new standard will
become available in the second half of 2 000, and the existing separate EMC standards will be used until it is available.
For article 3.1(a) the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LVD Directive and the
possibility of a new standard on health relating to radio emissions
The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. A particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both.
The modular approach has been taken because:
- it minimizes the number of standards needed. Because equipment may have multiple interfaces and functions it is
not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may occur in an
equipment.
- it provides scope for standards to be added:
- under article 3.2 when new frequency bands are agreed; or
- under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions;
without requiring alteration of standards that are already published.
The present document has been produced by the Satellite Earth Stations and Systems (SES) Technical Committee of the
European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
The present document is based on TBR 041 [4].
The technical requirements in the present document are applied under Articles 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive , concerning
the effective uses of the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communication and orbital resources so as to avoid
harmful interference. These requirements are in two major categories:
emissions 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 Network Control Facilities (NCF) for S-PCN are contained in ETS 300 735 [5].
The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a given satellite constellation for the protection of
the spectrum allocated to that satellite constellation, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operator
or the satellite network operators.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Mobile Earth Station (MES) radio equipment which have the following characteristics:
- these MES have both transmit and receive capabilities and operate in a Satellite-Personal Communications
Network (S-PCN). An S-PCN MES may be a 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;
- these MES are capable in operating in all or part of the frequency bands shown in table 1:
Table 1: Mobile Satellite Service frequency bands
MES MSS frequency bands
Transmit 1 610 MHz to 1 626,5 MHz
Receive 1 613,8 MHz to 1 626,5 MHz
Receive 2 483,5 MHz to 2 500,0 MHz
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE Directive) Article 3.2
which states that "… radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to
terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference".
In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements
under other parts of Article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1] may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE 1: A list of such ENs is included on the ETSI web site.
NOTE 2: These LMESs are controlled and monitored by a Network Control Facility (NCF). The NCF is outside the
scope of the present document.
