1
EMC 2014/30/EU (replace EMC directive
Implemented 20.04.2016
RED 2014/53/EU (replace R&TTE directive 1999/5/EC)
Implemented 13.June 2017 after one year transition period
New directives
2
New revisions of existing standards
and new standards for a range of new
products now falling under RED and
EMC directive.
Focus on receiver requirements for all
types of radio equipment
Standard development
3
EMC standards for non radio products
EN 55032 – Emission
EN 55035 - Immunity
EMC standards for radio products
EN 301 489- (1 to 52)
EN 301 489-19 GNSS receivers
Radio standards
EN 300 328 WiFi & Bluetooth 2,4GHz
EN 301 893 WiFi 5 GHz
EN 300 220 Short range (25 MHz to 1GHz)
EN 303 413 GNSS receivers
New Standards
4
Multimedia equipment
• Common framework for the marketing of products
• Improved market surveillance rules, safer products
• Clear rules (accreditation) for conformity
assessment bodies
• Clarifies the meaning of CE marking

Adding Radio modules into non-radio products
• Product behavior changes
• Radio brings with it new opportunities and new challenges
• Many existing standards only address issues around the
core product or primary function
• Combined equipment is radio equipment
• EG 203 367 (ETSI) help to understand the conformity
assessment of this type of equipment
Use of Radio modules
17
Using pre-approved modules
18
A radio module is a stand-alone radio
transmitter or transceiver on its own PWB with
all radio functions built on the board.
• Not a reference design
• Complies with all applicable rules in its own
right
• Must be tested with specific antenna(s).
What is a module
19
Complete radio test (WiFi & Bluetooth)
20
Radio test performance
21
A radio chipset placed on the product’s main
PWB is not a radio module.
• A copy of a reference design is not a module
• Does not contain design elements as antenna
matching circuitry and antenna.
• Not tested on it’s own PWB
What is not a module?
22
Additional tests?
• Radiated Spurious emissions
• Output power (EIRP)
Why?
New antenna’s can have different gain and
exeed the required output power.
New antenna can have different impedance
matching and could generate unwanted
emissions.
Using approved radio module with new antenna
23
• Must have an up-to-date certification
• May have conditions not met in all products
• Distributors often sell inventory, not solutions for certification
• Consider technical support: certificates, reports
• Software tools for continuous transmission, frequency selection and
modulation etc.
Considerations on choosing a module
24
Many countries do not have a modular approval scheme and thus do not allow
modular certification
Some countries will allow for modular approval but only in specific types of end
products (ITE and Household products)
A country that does not allow for modular certification may allow the test data for the
module to be used to gain certification on various end products but only allow one
model per certificate.
Some countries that allow modular approval:
• Canada/USA
• China (for radio modules that will be used in ITE or Household devices.
• EU (self-declaration for the end product)
• Japan
Where is modular approval allowed?
25
• Labelling is mandatory for the module Labelling is also mandatory for the host
Labelling the end product for modular approvals

Radio and non-Radio «Combined Equipment»
27
• Refrigerator with WiFi
• WiFi Scales
• WiFi Coffee machines
• WiFi Dishwashers
• Smart products
• IOT connected home products
Using already approved radio modules
• No need for duplicate radio measurements
• Emissions from the complete product with the radio active is however necessary.
Using non-approved radio modules or chipset.
• Complete radio performance test have to be performed.

28
RED essential requirements, cont.
29
Radio equipment falling under the scope of the RED are
excluded from both the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMCD):
Therefore the LVD and EMCD do not apply. However the RED
refers to the essential requirements of the LVD and EMCD.
