1 Scope
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) defines the TErrestrial Trunked RAdio system
(TETRA) Direct Mode Operation (DMO). It specifies the basic air interface, the inter-working between
Direct Mode (DM) groups via repeaters, and inter-working with the TETRA Voice plus Data (V+D) system
via gateways. It also specifies the security aspects in TETRA DMO, and the intrinsic services that are
supported in addition to the basic bearer and teleservices.
This part applies to the TETRA DMO Mobile Station - Mobile Station (MS - MS) air interface and contains
the specifications of the physical layer according to the OSI seven layer reference model.
It establishes the TETRA DM radio aspects (layer 1 and lower MAC):
- it defines and specifies the modulation;
- it defines and specifies the radio transmission and reception;
- it defines and specifies the synchronization;
- it defines and specifies the channel coding;
- it defines and specifies the channel multiplexing;
- it defines and specifies the control over the radio link.
2 Normative references
This ETS incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed
hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications
apply to this ETS only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest
edition of the publication referred to applies.

Technical characteristics and test conditions for radio equipment intended for
the transmission of data (and speech) and having an antenna connector".

3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this ETS, the following definitions apply:
Bit Error Ratio (BER): The ratio of the bits wrongly received to all bits received in a given logical channel.
broadcast: A unidirectional point to multipoint mode of transmission.
call transaction: All of the functions associated with a complete unidirectional transmission of information
during a call. A call can be made up of one or more call transactions. In a simplex call these call
transactions are sequential.
Direct Mode (DM): A mode of simplex operation where mobile subscriber radio units may communicate
using radio frequencies which may be monitored by but which are outside the control of the TETRA
Trunked network. DM is performed without intervention of any base station.

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------

SIST ETS 300 396-2:1999
Page 10
ETS 300 396-2: March 1998
Direct Mode Mobile Station (DM-MS): A physical grouping that contains all of the mobile equipment that
is used to obtain TETRA DM services. By definition, a Mobile Station contains at least one
Mobile Radio Stack (MRS). For synchronization purposes, Direct Mode Mobile Stations can have one of
two status levels:
- Master: if the DM-MS is either active in a call transaction transmitting traffic or control data, or is
reserving the channel by means of channel reservation signalling and hence is providing
synchronization information to the channel;
- Slave: if the DM-MS is receiving traffic and/or signalling and hence is deriving synchronization
information from the channel.
logical channel: A generic term for any distinct data path. Logical channels are considered to operate
between logical endpoints.
Message Erasure Rate (MER): The ratio of the messages detected as wrong by the receiver to all
messages received in a given logical channel.
Probability Of Undetected Erroneous Message (PUEM): The limit ratio of the erroneous messages
detected as right by the receiver to all messages received in a given logical channel.
quarter symbol number: The timing of quarter symbol duration 125/9 μs within a burst.
simplex: A mode of single or dual frequency working in which information can be transferred in both
directions but not at the same time.
timebase: A device which determines the timing state of signals transmitted by a
Direct Mode Mobile Station.
timeslot number: A counter indicating the timing of timeslots within a DMO frame.
useful part of a burst: The part of the burst between and including the symbol time of SN0 and the
symbol time of Snmax, with SN0 and SNmax as defined in clause 9.

4 Radio aspects
4.1 Introduction
This clause is an introduction to the radio aspects of the TETRA DMO standard. It consists of a general
description of the organization of the radio-related functions with reference to the clauses where each part
is specified in detail. Furthermore, it introduces the reference configuration that will be used throughout
this ETS.
4.2 Set of logical channels
The radio subsystem provides a certain number of logical channels as defined in clause 9. The logical
channels represent the interface between the protocol and the radio.
4.3 Reference configuration
For the purpose of elaborating the specification of the radio-related functions, a reference configuration of
the transmission chain is used, as shown in figure 1. Only the transmission part is specified, the receiver
being specified only via the overall performance requirements. With reference to this configuration, the
clauses address the following functional units:
- clause 5: differential encoding and modulation;
- clause 6: characteristics of transmitter and receiver;
- clause 8: coding, reordering and interleaving, and scrambling;
- clause 9: burst building and logical channel multiplexing;
- clause 10: radio link measurements.
This reference configuration also defines a number of points of vocabulary in relation to the names of bits
at different levels in the configuration.

4.5 Timeslot structure
The carrier separation is 25 kHz.
The basic radio resource is a timeslot lasting 14,167 ms (85/6 ms) and transmitting information at a
modulation rate of 36 kbit/s. This means that the timeslot duration, including guard and ramping times, is
510 bit (255 symbol) durations.
The following subclauses briefly introduces the structures of multiframes, frames, timeslots and bursts, as
well as the mapping of the logical channels onto the physical channels. The appropriate specifications are
found in clause 9.

A call can be made up of one or more call transactions. In a simplex call these calltransactions are sequential.Direct Mode (DM): A mode of simplex operation where mobile subscriber radio units may communicateusing radio frequencies which may be monitored by but which are outside the control of the TETRATrunked network. DM is performed without intervention of any base station.SIST ETS 300 396-2:1999



Page 10ETS 300 396-2: March 1998Direct Mode Mobile Station (DM-MS): A physical grouping that contains all of the mobile equipment thatis used to obtain TETRA DM services. By definition, a Mobile Station contains at least oneMobile Radio Stack (MRS). For synchronization purposes, Direct Mode Mobile Stations can have one oftwo status levels:-Master: if the DM-MS is either active in a call transaction transmitting traffic or control data, or isreserving the channel by means of channel reservation signalling and hence is providingsynchronization information to the channel;-Slave: if the DM-MS is receiving traffic and/or signalling and hence is deriving synchronizationinformation from the channel.logical channel: A generic term for any distinct data path. Logical channels are considered to operatebetween logical endpoints.Message Erasure Rate (MER): The ratio of the messages detected as wrong by the receiver to allmessages received in a given logical channel.Probability Of Undetected Erroneous Message (PUEM): The limit ratio of the erroneous messagesdetected as right by the receiver to all messages received in a given logical channel.quarter symbol number: The timing of quarter symbol duration 125/9 µs within a burst.simplex: A mode of single or dual frequency working in which information can be transferred in bothdirections but not at the same time.timebase: A device which determines the timing state of signals transmitted by aDirect Mode Mobile Station.timeslot number: A counter indicating the timing of timeslots within a DMO frame.useful part of a burst: The part of the burst between and including the symbol time of SN0 and thesymbol time of Snmax, with SN0 and SNmax as defined in clause 9.3.2AbbreviationsFor the purposes of this ETS, the following abbreviations apply:AIAir InterfaceBERBit Error RatioBNBit NumberDLBDirect mode Linearization BurstDLLData Link LayerDM-MSDirect Mode Mobile StationDMODirect Mode OperationDNBDirect mode Normal BurstDQPSKDifferential Quaternary Shift KeyingDSBDirect mode Synchronization BurstFNFrame NumberLCHLinearization CHannelMERMessage Erasure RateMNMultiframe Numbermodmodulo (base for counting)MSMobile StationPACQProbability of synchronization burst ACQuisitionPUEMProbability of Undetected Erroneous MessageQNQuarter symbol NumberSCHSignalling CHannelSNSymbol NumberSTCHSTealing CHannelTCHTraffic CHannelTDMATime Division Multiple AccessSIST ETS 300 396-2:1999

It consists of a generaldescription of the organization of the radio-related functions with reference to the clauses where each partis specified in detail. Furthermore, it introduces the reference configuration that will be used throughoutthis ETS.4.2Set of logical channelsThe radio subsystem provides a certain number of logical channels as defined in clause 9. The logicalchannels represent the interface between the protocol and the radio.4.3Reference configurationFor the purpose of elaborating the specification of the radio-related functions, a reference configuration ofthe transmission chain is used, as shown in figure 1. Only the transmission part is specified, the receiverbeing specified only via the overall performance requirements. With reference to this configuration, theclauses address the following functional units:-clause 5:differential encoding and modulation;-clause 6:characteristics of transmitter and receiver;-clause 8:coding, reordering and interleaving, and scrambling;-clause 9:burst building and logical channel multiplexing;-clause 10:radio link measurements.This reference configuration also defines a number of points of vocabulary in relation to the names of bitsat different levels in the configuration.RE-ORDERER ANDINTERLEAVERBLOCK ENCODERCONVOLUTIONALENCODERLOGICAL CHANNELMULTIPLEXER(1)(3)(2)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)MODULATORDIFFERENTIALENCODER(1) type-1 information bits (transmit)(2) type-2 block encoded bits(3) type-3 convolutionally encoded bits(7) modulation bits(8) modulation symbolsSCRAMBLER(6) multiplexed bits(5) type-5 scrambled bits(4) type-4 re-ordered and interleaved bitsBURST BUILDERTRANSMITTERFigure 1: Reference configuration4.4Error control schemesThe different error control schemes are described in detail in clause 8.SIST ETS 300 396-2:1999
