3、l for Administrations to regulate the effective use of the frequency spectrum and to avoid harmful interference. However intervention from the Administrations as far as the installation and use of equipment is concerned needs to be proportionate. Administrations and especially users, retailers and m
4、anufacturers will benefit from a more deregulated system of authorising the use of radio equipment. 2 BACKGROUND There is a general agreement that when the efficient use of the frequency spectrum is not at risk and as long as harmful interference is unlikely, the installation and use of radio equipm
5、ent might be exempted from individual licensing. Within the EEA, Directives 1999/5/EC (the R. these are given in noting (c) of the Decision. SITs that do not comply with noting (c) are not covered by this Decision. The users and installer of the terminals should be made aware of the restrictions via
6、 information in the user manual and on the package of the equipment to be provided by manufacturers. The powers specified in this Decision are peak powers. Where an antenna is coupled to more than one transmitter or a transmitter provides more than one carrier, the transmitter power specified in thi
7、s Decision is the sum total of all carriers feeding the antenna and the e.i.r.p specified is the sum total of all the emissions from the antenna on the main lobe.

The aim of this Decision is to exempt SITS from individual licensing because they fulfil the criteria for exemption listed in ERCREC 01-07. ERC Decision of 27 M

10、he CEPT Administrations there is a growing awareness of a need for harmonisation of licensing regimes in order to facilitate the provision of Pan European wide services; b) that it therefore would be desirable for CEPT Administrations to have common licence regimes at their disposal in order to cont
11、rol the installation, ownership and use of radio equipment; c) that there is a strong desire within the CEPT Administrations to improve efficiency by reducing the control exercised by Administrations in the form of mandatory provisions; d) that there are considerable differences in national licensin
12、g, laws and regulations and that harmonisation therefore can only be introduced gradually; e) that national licensing regimes should be as simple as possible, in order to minimise the burden upon the Administrations and users of equipment; f) that intervention by the national Administrations with re
13、spect to the use of radio equipment should in general not exceed the level necessary for the efficient use of the frequency spectrum; g) that Administrations should work towards the exemption of relevant radio equipment from individual licensing based on harmonised criteria detailed in ERC/REC 01-07
14、; that in the frequency band 10.7 - 12.5 GHz Fixed Service systems are being operated on a co-ordinated basis; h) i) that ERC is developing an ERC Decision establishing the priority between fixed service and uncoordinated earth stations in the fixed - satellite service in the band 10.7-12.5 GHz; j)
15、that this Decision shall not impede EEA member countries from fulfilling their obligaiions according to Community law; k) that EN 301 459 contains provisions ensuring to prevent SITS from unintended and unauthorised transmissions.

Where justified, administrations may require a simple form of registration; 2. that uncoordinated SITs operating within the band 10.70 - 12.5 GHz shall be operated on a non-protected non-interference basis with regard to the Fixed Service; 3. that this Decision shall enter into force on 27
20、March 2000. 4. that CEPT Administrations shall communicate the national measures implementing this Decision to the ERC Chairman and the ER0 when the Decision is nationally implemented Note: Please check the ER0 web site (http:/www.ero.dk) for the up to date position on the implementation of this and other ERC Decisions
