1) 2014/53/EU (RED) Standardisation request M/536 Work programme underway: 183 Work Items for Harmonised Standards 9 Harmonised Standards published awaiting citation in the OJEU 75 in Public Approval / Resolution of comments / National Vote 35 Approved by TB – awaiting start of ENAP 55 Scheduled for TB Approval before end June © ETSI 2016. All rights reserved
EMCD (2014/30/EU) Standardisation Request expected “Possible Future Standardisation Request” notified 1 Oct 2015 ETSI continuing to work under existing EMC mandates pending adoption of final mandate in the Committee on Standards EN 300 386 (Telecommunications Network Equipment) will be proposed under the EMCD only (working assumption: EMC standards for non-radio products will not be cited under the RED) EN 301 489-1 (EMC for radio and ancillary equipment) and EN 301 489-34 (External Power Supply (EPS) for mobile phones) will be proposed under EMCD and RED art 3.1b Remaining parts of EN 301 489 series (specific conditions for other radio equipment) will be proposed under RED art 3.1b only © ETSI 2016 All rights reserved
2) Harmonised Standards: presentation CEN, CENELEC & ETSI requested (29 May 2015) to align in “model phrases” in Harmonised Standards under the New Legislative Framework (NLF): follow the principles given in the “Vademecum” establishes a legally correct interface between harmonised standards and relevant Union legislation “Model phrases” incorporated into ETSI “skeleton document” for Harmonised Standards © ETSI 2016. All rights reserved
2) Harmonised Standards: Presentation of OJEU listing CEN, CENELEC & ETSI received a Commission letter (19 October 2015) on publication of OJ lists under NLF Directives: Listing for 2014/53/EU will identify the Essential Requirement addressed by each Harmonised Standard During transition period, only one line will appear in the OJ per standard, which will also include details of previous versions and the dates of cessation of Presumption of Conformity Two Notes specific to RTTED will be deleted: In addition standards published under Directives 2006/95/EC, 2004/108/EC, 90/385/EEC and 93/42/EEC may be used to demonstrate compliance with articles 3.1.a and 3.1.b of Directive 1999/5/EC. Products are presumed to comply with the Directive when they meet the requirements within the usage conditions for which they are intended. © ETSI 2016. All rights reserved
3) “Combined Equipment” (“smart” or “connected” devices) Trend towards “connected” electrotechnical devices (e.g. light bulbs, domestic appliances, industrial machines) Products using radiocomms or radiodetermination) covered by RED; LVD & EMCD do not apply Working Assumption: RED also applies if the radio frequencies used are in ISM bands (e.g. Short-range devices, Radio LAN, Wireless Power Transfer) Different EMC requirements need to be reconciled (different frequency ranges, limits & exclusion bands) Draft ETSI Guide EG 203 367: Approved for 60-day Member Vote February 2016 EN 301 489-60: EMC for smart domestic appliances: Work Item adopted by TC ERM in February 2016 Standard for Industrial environment under consideration © ETSI 2015. All rights reserved
4) Avionics equipment ETSI took part in a TCAM ad-hoc group to clarify the interface between the RED and the EASA Regulation ETSI working assumption (under discussion in EC): Radar for helicopters flying in confined spaces and wing-tip radar for aircraft taxiing on the ground will be covered by the RED “Small” UAV are covered by Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and RED, and not EASA GSM/LTE on Board will not be covered by EASA as they are not involved in the direct control of the aircraft in flight ETSI will continue to develop HS for the above May need to be incorporated into an EASA regulation © ETSI 2015. All rights reserved
5) Custom-built evaluation kits Specifically excluded from EMCD & RED (& LVD) ETSI working assumption: No National regulations can apply to limit the circulation of such equipment Use of radio spectrum is governed by National frequency plans or the Radio Spectrum Decision © ETSI 2011. All rights reserved
6) 2,45 GHz: Wideband Transmission Systems Revised EN 300 328 (2,45 GHz) approved for ENAP in TC ERM (Feb 2016) Modifications to allow Wireless Industrial Applications (WIA) to meet the regulatory requirements for the use of this band Improved test methods and receiver performance Further improvements on receiver performance expected in a planned revision after the adoption of this version © ETSI 2011. All rights reserved
7) 5,8 GHz: Wideband Transmission Systems Review of EN 301 893 for RED underway in TC BRAN WiFi and LTE-LAA with a common sharing mechanism Receiver blocking included in latest draft “Two-stage” receiver improvements expected (as EN 300 328 in 2,45 GHz) Sharing techniques under study in extension bands: TR 103 317 (with EESS in 5 350 to 5 470 MHz) TR 103 318 (with radiolocation in 5 350 to 5 470 MHz and 5 725 to 5 850 MHz) TR 103 319 (with Road Tolling and Intelligent Transport systems in 5 725 to 5 925 MHz band) © ETSI 2011. All rights reserved
8) 5,8 GHz: Wireless Industrial Applications (WIA) ERM TG41 continuing work on EN 303 258 (WIA in 5,8 GHz) includes mitigation mechanisms to protect incumbent services Need for a dedicated band for critical WIA applications? For further study under Radio Spectrum Decision © ETSI 2011. All rights reserved
9) Short Range Devices: 25 MHz to 1 GHz (EN 300 220) Multiple parts approved for ENAP at ERM (Feb 2016) Part 1: Technical characteristics and test methods Part 2: Non specific radio equipment (HS under RED) Part 3-1: Low Duty Cycle / High Reliability: Social Alarms Part 3-2: Low Duty Cycle / High Reliability: Wireless Alarms Part 4: Metering equipment (169,4-169,4875MHz) “Two-stage” receiver improvements expected (as EN 300 328 in 2,45 GHz) © ETSI 2011.
