Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/1345Show full title

‘ANNEX Frequency bands with corresponding harmonised technical conditions and implementation deadlines for short-range devices

Table 1 defines the scope of different categories of short-range devices (defined in Article 2(3)) to which the present Decision applies. Table 2 specifies different combinations of frequency band and category of short-range devices, and the harmonised technical conditions for spectrum access and implementation deadlines applicable thereto.

General technical conditions applicable to all bands and short-range devices that fall within the scope of this Decision:

• Member States must allow adjacent frequency bands set out in Table 2 to be used as a single frequency band provided the specific conditions of each of these adjacent frequency bands are met.

• Member States must allow the usage of spectrum up to the transmit power, field strength or power density set out in Table 2. Pursuant to Article 3(3) of this Decision, they may impose less restrictive conditions, that is to say allow the use of spectrum with higher transmit power, field strength or power density, provided it does not reduce or compromise the appropriate coexistence between short-range devices in bands harmonised by this Decision.

• Member States may only impose the additional parameters (channelling and/or channel access and occupation rules) set out in Table 2, and must not add other parameters or spectrum access and mitigation requirements. Less restrictive conditions pursuant to Article 3(3), means that Member States may completely omit these additional parameters in a given cell or allow higher values, provided that the appropriate sharing environment in the harmonised band is not compromised.

• Member States may only impose the other usage restrictions set out in Table 2 and must not add additional usage restrictions. Since less restrictive conditions may be applied pursuant to Article 3(3), Member States may omit one or all of these restrictions, provided that the appropriate sharing environment in the harmonised band is not compromised.

• Less restrictive conditions pursuant to Article 3(3) must apply without prejudice to Directive 2014/53/EU.

For the purposes of this Annex, the following duty cycle definition applies:

“duty cycle” means the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of Σ(Ton)/(Tobs) where Ton is the “on” time of a single transmitter device and Tobs is the observation period. Ton is measured in an observation frequency band (Fobs). Unless otherwise specified in this technical annex, Tobs is a continuous one hour period and Fobs is the applicable frequency band in this technical annex. Less restrictive conditions within the meaning of Article 3(3), mean that Member States may allow a higher value for “duty cycle”.

Categories of short-range devices pursuant to Article 2(3) and their scope

a Council Directive 90/385/EEC of 20 June 1990 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to active implantable medical devices (OJ L 189, 20.7.1990, p. 17).
Category of short-range devices	Scope
Non-specific short-range devices (SRDs)	Covers all kinds of radio devices, regardless of the application or their purpose, which fulfil the technical conditions as specified for a given frequency band. Typical uses include telemetry, telecommand, alarms, data transmissions in general and other applications.
Active medical implant devices	Covers the radio part of active implantable medical devices that are intended to be fully or partially introduced, surgically or medically, into the human body or that of an animal, and where applicable their peripherals. Active implantable medical devices are defined in Council Directive 90/385/EECa.
Assistive listening devices (ALDs)	Covers radio communications systems that allow persons with hearing impairment to increase their listening capability. Typical system installations include one or more radio transmitters and one or more radio receivers.
High duty cycle/continuous transmission devices	Covers radio devices that rely on low latency and high duty cycle transmissions. These devices are typically used for personal wireless audio and multimedia streaming systems used for combined audio/video transmissions and audio/video sync signals, mobile phones, automotive or home entertainment system, wireless microphones, cordless loudspeakers, cordless headphones, radio devices carried on a person, assistive listening devices, in-ear monitoring, wireless microphones for use at concerts or other stage productions, and low power analogue FM transmitters.
Inductive devices	Covers radio devices that use magnetic fields with inductive loop systems for near field communications. This typically includes devices for car immobilisation, animal identification, alarm systems, cable detection, waste management, personal identification, wireless voice links, access control, proximity sensors, anti-theft systems as well as RF anti-theft induction systems, data transfer to hand-held devices, automatic article identification, wireless control systems and automatic road tolling.
Low duty cycle/high reliability devices	Covers radio devices that rely on low overall spectrum utilisation and low duty cycle spectrum access rules to ensure highly reliable spectrum access and transmissions in shared bands. Typical applications include alarm systems that use radio communication for indicating an alert condition at a distant location and social alarm systems that allow reliable communication for a person in distress.
Medical data acquisition devices	Covers the transmission of non-voice data to and from non-implantable medical devices in order to monitor, diagnose and treat patients in healthcare facilities or in their homes as prescribed by duly authorised healthcare professionals.
PMR446 devices	Covers hand portable equipment (without base station or repeater use) carried on a person or manually operated, which uses integral antennas only in order to maximise sharing and minimise interference. PMR 446 equipment operates in short-range peer-to-peer mode and must not be used neither as a part of infrastructure network nor as a repeater.
Radio determination devices	Covers radio devices used for determining the position, velocity and/or other characteristics of an object, or for obtaining information relating to these parameters. Radio determination equipment typically conducts measurements to obtain such characteristics. Radio determination devices exclude any kind of point-to-point or point-to-multipoint radio communications.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) devices	Covers tag/interrogator based radio communications systems, consisting of (i) radio devices (tags) attached to animate or inanimate items and (ii) transmitter/receiver units (interrogators) which activate the tags and receive data back. Typical applications include the tracking and identification of items, for instance for the purpose of electronic article surveillance (EAS), and collecting and transmitting data relating to the items to which tags are attached, which may be either battery-less, battery assisted or battery powered. The responses from a tag are validated by its interrogator and passed to its host system.
Transport and traffic telematics devices	Covers radio devices that are used in the fields of transport (road, rail, water or air, depending on the relevant technical restrictions), traffic management, navigation, mobility management and in intelligent transport systems (ITS). Typical applications include interfaces between different modes of transport, communication between vehicles (e.g. car to car), between vehicles and fixed locations (e.g. car to infrastructure) as well as communication from and to users.
Wideband data transmission devices	Covers radio devices that use wideband modulation techniques to access the spectrum. Typical uses include wireless access systems such as radio local area networks (WAS/RLANs) or wideband SRDs in data networks.

Typical uses of social alarm are to assist elderly or disabled people. [c] “Tank Level Probing Radar” (TLPR) means a specific type of radiodetermination application, which is used for tank level measurements and is installed in metallic or reinforced concrete tanks, or similar structures made of material with comparable attenuation characteristics. The purpose of the tank is to contain a substance. [d] “Model control devices” means a specific kind of telecommand and telemetry radio equipment that is used to remotely control the movement of models (principally miniature representations of vehicles) in the air, on land or over or under the water surface. [e] An alarm system is a device which uses radio communication support for indicating an alert to a system or a person, as a main functionnality, at a distant location when a problem or a specific situation occurs. Radio alarms include social alarms and alarms for security and safety. [f] Medical Body Area Network Systems (MBANSs) are used for medical data acquisition and are intended for low-power wireless networking of a plurality of body-worn sensors and/or actuators as well as of a hub device placed on/around the human body. [g] A network access point in a data network is a fixed terrestrial short-range device that acts as a connection point for the other short-range devices in the data network to service platforms located outside of that data network. The term data network refers to several short-range devices, including the network access point, as network components and to the wireless connections between them. [h] Wireless medical capsule endoscopy is used for medical data acquisition designed for use in medical doctor-patient scenarios with the aim of acquiring images of human digestive tract. [i] Smart tachograph, weight and dimension applications are defined as remote enforcement of the tachograph in Appendix 14 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/799 (OJ L 139, 26.5.2016, p. 1) and for the weights and dimensions enforcement in Article 10d of Directive (EU) 2015/719 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 115, 6.5.2015, p. 1).

[2] In bands 22, 24, 25, 27a, and 28 higher field strengths and additional usage restrictions apply for inductive applications. [3] The power limit applies inside a closed tank and corresponds to a spectral density of – 41,3 dBm/MHz e.i.r.p. outside a 500 litre test tank. [4] Member States can specify exclusion zones or equivalent measures in which the obstacle detection application for rotorcraft use shall not be used for the protection of the radioastronomy service or other national use. Rotorcraft is defined as EASA CS-27 and CS-29 (resp. JAR-27 and JAR-29 for former certifications); [5] Devices shall implement the whole frequency range on a tuning range basis. [6] RFID tags respond at a very low power level (– 20 dBm e.r.p.) in a frequency range around the RFID interrogator channels and must comply with the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU. [7] Techniques to access spectrum and mitigate interference that provide an appropriate level of performance to comply with the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU shall be used. If relevant techniques are described in harmonised standards or parts thereof the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union under Directive 2014/53/EU, performance at least equivalent to these techniques shall be ensured. [8] Antenna requirements that provide an appropriate level of performance to comply with the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU shall be used. If relevant restrictions are described in harmonised standards or parts thereof the references of which have been published in the Official Journal of the European Union under Directive 2014/53/EU, performance at least equivalent to these restrictions shall be ensured.
