Overview

SIST EN 302 085 V1.2.2:2003 is a European standard that specifies essential requirements for antennas used in fixed radio systems, specifically for point-to-multipoint (P-MP) operations in the 3 GHz to 11 GHz bands. Developed by the Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo (SIST) and adopted from ETSI EN 302 085, this standard addresses fixed, linearly polarized antennas utilized at both base (central) stations and terminal stations within P-MP networks.

The purpose of this standard is to ensure optimum frequency coordination, minimize interference, and support efficient spectrum usage for digital radio-relay and satellite communications systems. The document lays out both technical and operational antenna requirements, supporting regulatory authorities, manufacturers, network operators, and equipment purchasers in designing and deploying robust wireless infrastructure.

Key Topics

  • Frequency Bands Covered: Antenna requirements are defined for radio systems operating across three sub-bands within 3 GHz to 11 GHz:

    • Range 1: 3.0 GHz to 5.9 GHz
    • Range 2: 5.9 GHz to 8.5 GHz
    • Range 3: 8.5 GHz to 11.0 GHz
  • Antenna Types & Classifications:

    • Central Stations (CS): Antenna types include omni-directional, sectored (single and multi-beam), and directional antennas.
    • Terminal Stations (TS): Directional antennas designed for outstations.
    • Multiple class templates exist for each, allowing for scalability and suitability across deployment densities.
  • Technical Characteristics:

    • Radiation Pattern Envelope (RPE): Defines permissible radiated power envelopes for co-polar and cross-polar patterns at various angles for each class and frequency range.
    • Minimum Boresight Gain: Establishes lower boundaries for antenna gain at the main lobe, ensuring optimal performance.
    • Polarization: Standard is limited to linear polarization.
    • Mechanical & Environmental Requirements: Guidance is provided for characteristics such as radome performance, mechanical tilt, and environmental resilience.
  • Conformance & Labeling:

    • Requirements for testing, labeling, and performance verification enable standardized compliance for manufacturers and operators.

Applications

This standard is fundamental for the successful deployment of point-to-multipoint fixed wireless systems within the 3 GHz to 11 GHz frequency bands. Applications include:

  • Broadband Wireless Access: Providing last-mile connectivity in urban, suburban, and rural environments.
  • Backhaul Networks: Serving as a cost-effective and spectrum-efficient solution for linking base stations or remote locations.
  • Private Networks: Supporting enterprise-critical communications for utilities, transportation, and industrial automation.
  • Infrastructure Sharing: Facilitates spectrum coordination and infrastructure harmonization between multiple operators or service types.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Meeting national and international requirements enables cross-border interoperability and protection against harmful interference.

Related Standards

To ensure interoperability and compliance, SIST EN 302 085 V1.2.2:2003 references and aligns with several related standards:

  • ETSI EN 300 833: Fixed Radio Systems - Antennas for point-to-point radio systems in 3 GHz to 60 GHz bands.
  • ETSI EN 301 126-3-2: Fixed Radio Systems - Conformance testing for Point-to-Multipoint antennas.
  • CEPT/ERC/REC 12-05, CEPT/ERC/REC 14-03: Channel arrangements for fixed services in the relevant bands.
  • ITU-R Recommendations F.747 and F.748: Channel and frequency arrangements for international fixed wireless systems.
  • IEC 60154 & IEC 60169 Series: Definitions for waveguide flanges and radio-frequency connectors relevant for antenna interfacing.

Adherence to these standards fosters reliable, interference-free operation and supports product certification in global telecommunications markets.


By establishing clear requirements for antenna performance and classification, SIST EN 302 085 V1.2.2:2003 facilitates the deployment of robust, scalable, and compliant point-to-multipoint fixed radio systems across the 3 GHz to 11 GHz bands, critical for next-generation wireless infrastructure.

Foreword This European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Transmission and Multiplexing (TM). The purpose of the present document is to define the antenna performance standards necessary to ensure optimum frequency co-ordination between the systems and/or different services by the Regulatory Authorities in the 3 GHz to 11 GHz band. These nominal frequency limits have been chosen to reflect the WRC 2000 Final Acts [6] and the frequency plans as given in CEPT Recommendation T/R 13-02 [1] and ITU-R Recommendation F.748 [5]. Point-to-multipoint antennas, whether integrated within station equipment or not, may need to meet environmental, mechanical and electrical characteristics not covered by the present document, in order that the systems will operate as intended. Additional parameters and characteristics may be subject to agreement between the equipment purchaser and the supplier; these are considered and guidance is provided in annex A.

1 Scope The present document specifies the essential electrical requirements for linear polarization, fixed beam antennas to be utilized with new Point-to-Multipoint (P-MP) systems, including central station and terminal station applications, operating in frequency bands from 3 GHz to 11 GHz. These systems use various multiple access schemes. Electronically steerable antennas and circularly polarized antennas are not considered in the present document. Only in exceptional circumstances, and after a consultation period with operators and manufacturers, the Regulatory Authority may impose the use of tighter requirements than the minimum values given in the present document, in order to maximize the use of scarce spectrum resources. For some high gain, point-to-multipoint requirements, antennas may be used having performance as per the appropriate point-to-point antenna standard. For these antennas, minimum requirements are given in EN 300 833 [8]. 2 References The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. • References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific. • For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. • For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.
