Fixed Radio Systems; Characteristics and requirements for point-to-point equipment and antennas; Part 2-2: Digital systems operating in frequency bands where frequency coordination is applied; Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the RTTE Directive

In order to ensure that radio equipment uses the radio spectrum effectively and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum, radio equipment should be constructed so that: in the case of a transmitter, when the transmitter is properly installed, maintained and used for its intended purpose it generates radio waves emissions that do not create harmful interference, while unwanted radio waves emissions generated by the transmitter (e.g. in adjacent channels) with a potential negative impact on the goals of radio spectrum policy should be limited to such a level that, according to the state of the art, harmful interference is avoided; and, in the case of a receiver, it has a level ...[+++] of performance that allows it to operate as intended and protects it against the risk of harmful interference, in particular from shared or adjacent channels, and, in so doing, supports improvements in the efficient use of shared or adjacent channels.

Mobile internet users already experience congestion on networks because of inefficient use of radio spectrumIn additionto frustrating users, innovation in markets for new technologies is stifled, affecting € billion of activity annually A forward-looking European spectrum policy shouldwhile accommodating broadcasting, promote efficient spectrum management, by mandating the use of certain digital dividend frequencies for wireless broadband by a fixed future dateby ensuring additional flexibility (also allowing spectrum trading)and by supporting competition and innovation

A forward-looking European spectrum policy should, while accommodating broadcasting, promote efficient spectrum management, by mandating the use of certain digital dividend frequencies for wireless broadband by a fixed future date, by ensuring additional flexibility (also allowing spectrum trading) and by supporting competition and innovation.

Member States should: Develop and make operational national broadband plans by 2012 that meet the coverage and speed and take-up targets defined in Europe 2020, using public financing in line with EU competition and state aid rules[28], the Commission will report annually on progress as part of the Digital Agenda governance; Take measures, including legal provisions, to facilitate broadband investment, such as making sure that civil engineering works systematically involve potential investors, clearing rights of way, mapping available passive infrastructure suitable for cabling and upgrading in-building wiring; Use fully the Structural ...[+++] and Rural Development Funds that are already earmarked for investment in ICT infrastructures and services; Implement the European Spectrum Policy Programme, so as to ensure the co-ordinated allocation of the spectrum needed to meet the target of 100% coverage of 30mbps internet by 2020, and the NGA Recommendation.

subsidies to individuals for the purchase of set-top boxes for any platform to prevent the exclusion of low income households from access to TV reception and to reach a critical mass of users, in particular in areas where due to the lack of frequency spectrum, the terrestrial transmission will have to be switched without simulcast period;
