Appendix B

Detailed framework for UWB Communication Devices proposed for New Zealand

• Licensing framework: General User Licence (non-interference and non-protected basis, as per GUL regime in New Zealand)
• Technical requirements as specified in ETSI EN 302 065.
• Maximum EIRP, frequency range and other operational conditions: as per figure 1 and figure 2 (ETSI EN 302 065 below)
• Indoor operation is permitted. For outdoor operation, devices and infrastructure at a fixed location or connected to a fixed outdoor antenna are not permitted.
• Operation of devices onboard aircraft is not permitted under this framework.

Figure 2: Mean and peak power emission limits

Note 1: Low duty cycle.

If low duty cycle is implemented, devices in this band may operate at:

(a) a maximum mean e.i.r.p spectral density of -41.3 dBm/MHz; and
(b) a maximum peak e.i.r.p of 0 dBm.

(Low duty cycle as per ETSI EN 302 065, section 4.1.7)

Note 2: Road & Rail vehicles.

1. For devices installed in road and rail vehicles, where transmit power control is implemented:-
   
   (a) the maximum mean e.i.r.p. spectral density is -41.3 dBm/MHz.
   (b) the maximum peak e.i.r.p is 0 dBm.
   (c) the transmit power control must operate with a range of 12 dB below the maximum mean e.i.r.p spectral density.
   

2. For devices installed in road and rail vehicles, where transmit power control is not implemented:
   
   (a) the maximum mean e.i.r.p. spectral density is -53.3 dBm/MHz; and
   (b) the maximum peak e.i.r.p is -12 dBm.

Definitions

• Maximum mean e.i.r.p. spectral density is the highest signal strength measured in any direction at any frequency within the defined range, where the mean e.i.r.p spectral density is measured with a 1 MHz resolution bandwidth, an RMS detector and an averaging time of 1ms or less.
• Maximum peak e.i.r.p. is the highest signal strength measured in any direction within the defined range, where the peak e.i.r.p. is measured within a 50MHz bandwidth centred on the frequency at which the highest mean radiated power occurs.
