8.2 Compliance with the EU ETSI Standards
The standard Region 2 P440 has been designed to be in compliance with the emissions mask defined
in the ETSI EN 302 065 standard.
The user is free to buy the equipment for evaluation and demonstration purposes. But before the
device can be generally marketed as an end product, its operation must be compliant with the ETSI
standard. The ETSI standard places additional requirements on operation of UWB devices beyond
just the emission mask. These requirements are related to the specific end application. For example,
depending on the user’s intended application, there can be additional limitations (or flexibilities) on
the location of fixed and mobile transmitters as well as on the rate at which transmissions can be
generated. There are also alternate mitigation strategies which can be used to accomplish the intent of
the standard. These strategies need to be considered in the context of the target application.
The ETSI regulations also evolve over time with changes being introduced periodically. Product
developers need to keep this in mind as they evaluate applications and target products.
Finally, the P440 by itself cannot be certified. The P440 must be certified by the relevant body in the
context of the final product in which it is to be used.
