ETSI EN 303 347-1:2019 Meteorological Radars; Harmonised Standard for access to radio spectrum; Part 1: S band Meteorological Radar Sensor operating in the frequency band 2 700 MHz to 2 900 MHz (V1.1.0)
The present document specifies technical characteristics and methods of measurements for S-band meteorological radar systems intended for the surveillance and classification of hydrometeors with the following characteristics: ? Operating in the following frequency range: - 2 700 MHz to 2 900 MHz. ? Utilizing unmodulated pulses or phase/frequency modulated pulses also known as pulse compression. ? The maximum output power (PEP) does not exceed 1 MW (i.e. 90 dBm). ? The transceiver antenna connection and its feeding RF line are using a hollow metallic rectangular or elliptic waveguide. ? The antenna is rotating and can be changed in elevation. ? The antenna feed is waveguide based and the antenna is passive. ? The orientation of the transmitted field from the antenna can be vertical or horizontal orientated or it can be both simultaneously. ? At the transceiver output a RF circulator is used. NOTE 1: Since transceiver and antenna are based on hollow metallic rectangular waveguide the frequency range for measurements that needs to be addressed covers 2 077 MHz to 14 500 MHz. The lower limit of this frequency range is obtained as the cut-off frequency of the generally used WR284/WG10 waveguide according to IEC 60153-2 [i.2]. The upper limit corresponds to the upper limit stated in ERC/Recommendation 74-01@ Table 1 [1]. The highest operating frequency of 2 900 MHz has been used to calculate the upper limit. NOTE 2: Since at the transceiver output a RF circulator is used@ it is assumed that the transceiver characteristics remain independent from the antenna. NOTE 3: Meteorological radar systems covered by the present document are expected to use the band 2 700 MHz to 2 900 MHz. According to provision 5.423 of the ITU Radio Regulations [4]@ ground-based radars used for meteorological purposes in the band 2 700 MHz to 2 900 MHz are authorized to operate on a basis of equality with stations of the aeronautical radio navigation service. NOTE 4: Further technical and operational characteristics of meteorological radar systems can be found in Recommendation ITU-R M.1849-1 [i.3]. NOTE 5: The relationship between the present document and essential requirements of article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] is given in Annex A.
