1 Scope
This second edition European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) gives an introduction and overview of
the complete Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) Common Interface (CI).
This part of the DECT CI specifies the physical channel arrangements. DECT physical channels are radio
communication paths between two radio end points. A radio end point is either part of the fixed
infrastructure or a Portable Part (PP), typically a handset. The assignment of one or more particular
physical channels to a call is the task of higher layers.
The Physical Layer (PHL) interfaces with the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer, and with the Lower
Layer Management Entity (LLME). On the other side of the PHL is the radio transmission medium which
has to be shared extensively with other DECT users and a wide variety of other radio services. The tasks
of the PHL can be grouped into five categories:
a) to modulate and demodulate radio carriers with a bit stream of a defined rate to create a radio
frequency channel;
b) to acquire and maintain bit and slot synchronization between transmitters and receivers;
c) to transmit or receive a defined number of bits at a requested time and on a particular frequency;
d) to add and remove the synchronization field and the Z-field used for rear end collision detection;
e) to observe the radio environment to report signal strengths.

A physical channel provides a simplex bit-pipe between two radio end points. To establish, for example, a
duplex telephone connection, two physical channels have to be established between the endpoints.
Radio spectrum is needed to create a physical channel. The radio spectrum space has three dimensions:
- geometric (geographic) space;
- frequency; and
- time.
Spectrum is assigned to physical channels by sharing it in these three dimensions.
DECT provides a mechanism called "handover", to release a physical channel and to establish another
one in any or all of the three dimensions without releasing the end to end connection.
The requirements of this part should be read in conjunction with I-ETS 300 176 [10].
The requirements specified apply for nominal conditions unless extreme conditions are stated. Tests at
extreme conditions may include combinations of limit values of extreme temperature and of power supply
variation, defined for each case in I-ETS 300 176 [10].
Nominal and extreme temperature ranges are defined below:
- Nominal temperature: PP, FP, RFP, CCFP + 15 °C to + 35 °C
- Extreme temperature: PP   0 °C to + 40 °C
FP, RFP, CCFP, class E1 + 10 °C to + 40 °C
FP, RFP, CCFP, class E2 - 10 °C to + 55 °C
The environmental class E1 refers to installation in indoor heated and/or cooled areas allowing for
personal comfort, e.g. homes, offices, laboratories or workshops. The environmental class E2 refers to all
other installations.
For nominal temperature, each measurement is made at the temperature of the test site, which shall be
within + 15 °C to + 35 °C. For extreme temperatures, additional measurements are made, at each limit
value of the extreme temperature.
4.1 RF channels (access in frequency)
4.1.1 Nominal position of RF carriers
Ten RF carriers shall be placed into the frequency band 1 880-1 900 MHz with centre frequencies F
C
given by:
Fc = F0 - c x 1,728 MHz
where: F0 = 1897.344 MHz; and
c = 0,1, ., 9.
Above this band, additional carriers are defined with centre frequencies Fc given by:
Fc = F9 + c x 1,728 MHz
and c ≥ 10 and RF band = 00001 (See ETS 300 175-3 [2], subclause 7.2.3.3.1).

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------

SIST ETS 300 175-2:1999
Page 13
ETS 300 175-2: September 1996
The frequency band between Fc - 1,728/2 MHz and Fc + 1,728/2 MHz shall be designated RF channel c.
NOTE: A nominal DECT RF carrier is one whose centre frequency is generated by the
formula:
Fg = F0 - g x 1,728 MHz ,
where g is any integer.
All DECT equipment shall be capable of working on all 10 RF channels, c= 0,1, ., 9.
4.1.2 Accuracy and stability of RF carriers
At an RFP the transmitted RF carrier frequency corresponding to RF channel c shall be in the range
Fc ± 50 kHz at extreme conditions.
At a PP the centre frequency accuracy shall be within ± 50 kHz at extreme conditions either relative to an
absolute frequency reference or relative to the received carrier, except that during the first 1 s after the
transition from the idle-locked state to the active-locked state the centre frequency accuracy shall be
within ± 100 kHz at extreme conditions relative to the received carrier.
NOTE: The above state transition is defined in ETS 300 175-3 [2].
The maximum rate of change of the centre frequency at both the RFP and the PP while transmitting, shall
not exceed 15 kHz per slot.
4.2 Time Divisio
