  1. Regulatory issues for SRDs in 863 – 870 MHz Presentation Plan • Current Rules for SRD in 863 – 870 MHz • CEPT • EC • UK • Future activities in the 865 – 868 MHz band • EC Decision on RFID 2006/804/EC • ETSI Future Plans Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  2. CEPT SRD regulations (Voluntary) • In CEPT countries ECC Recommendation 70-03 applies • In some (10) CEPT countries the whole 862 to 870 MHz band is allocated to general SRD use • In addition there are a number of different sub-bands with different rules that apply on a national basis across 862 – 870 MHz • Each sub band may include additional channel plan and size restrictions. • See www.ero.dk for countries implementation of Rec. 70-03 Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  3. EC SRD Rules (Mandatory) • EC Decision 2006/771/EC mandates SRD use in various sub-bands • 868 – 868.6 MHz (25mW:up to 1% duty cycle) • 868.7 – 869.2 MHz (25mW:up to 0.1% duty cycle) • 869.4 – 869.65 MHz (500mW:up to 10% duty cycle) • 869.7 - 870 MHz (5mW:no duty cycle restriction) • Each sub band may include additional channel plan and size restrictions Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  4. UK SRD Rules • In addition to the EC decision UK allow 869.3 – 869.4 MHz (10mW: 10% duty cycle) • See UK IR2030 for UK for further details Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  5. EC Decision on RFID 2006/804/EC • EC Authorised 865 to 868 MHz for RFID in 2005 – Building on the technical parameters stated in ECC Recommendation 70-03 • Rules include; • Sub-band A: 865-865.6 MHz 100 mW max e.r.p. • Sub-band B: 865.6-867.6 MHz 2 W max e.r.p. • Sub-band C: 867.6-868 MHz 500 mW max e.r.p. • 200 kHz Channels • RFID only have been allocated this spectrum in the EC Decision. SRDs are only allocated this spectrum nationally on a voluntary basis in around 10 CEPT countries (Not UK) Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  6. ETSI SRD Doc for CEPT • The ETSI groups for SRD and RFID, working together on a Systems Reference Document with a new proposed band plan . (SRDoc) • SRDoc will go forward to CEPT where a segmentation of the 865 – 868 MHz band will be studied, giving both SRD low power and RFID higher power apparatus their own bands and consequently remove the need for the stringent politeness restrictions. • ETSI believe there are potential benefits to both RFID and SRD communities. • For more information see documentation for ETSI ERM TG34 Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK

  7. Questions Useful links • UK Regs http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2005/20053471.htm • R&TTE FAQ http://www.ofcom.org.uk/radiocomms/ifi/tech/RTEE/rtte_faq/ • ETSI SRDoc http://portal .etsi.org Any further questions should be sent to andrew.gowans@ofcom.org.uk Andy Gowans/Mark Austin – OFCOM UK
