Bill,being struggling with the same question. 1.8.1 goes in effect only on 1.1.2015, but current 1.7.1 should be used with an adaptivity requirement from 1.8.1.It is very unusual circumstances where the requirement is pretty much "dropped" out of nowhere and looks like goes in effect immediately.Our test lab posted this question to an alleged author of the below note and his answer was "yes, it applies and must be tested". not sure how it all makes sense to etsi authors and RTTE committee. what about currently shipping equipment which been evaluated to 1.7.1 version, but before adaptivity note been posted?

Note 2.1 Date expired (30/06/2008) Article 3(2) This version of the standard gives presumption of conformity with the requirements of Article 3(2) of Directive 1999/5/EC under the following condition: The equipment shall implement an adequate spectrum sharing mechanism, e.g. LBT (Listen Before Talk), DAA (Detect And Avoid), etc., in order to comply with the requirement specified in clause 4.3.5 of this version. Such a mechanism shall facilitate sharing between the various technologies and applications which currently exist and in case of congestion, users will be ensured equal access (and as a consequence a graceful degradation of service to all users). The efficiency of the various sharing mechanisms can be assessed using the appropriate clauses of EN 300 328 version 1.8.1.ETSIEN 300 328 V1.8.1 (new)Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Wideband transmission systems; Data transmission equipment operating in the 2,4 GHz ISM band and using wide band modulation techniques; Harmonized EN covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the R&TTE DirectiveEN 300 328 V1.7.1 Note 2.1 31/12/2014 Article 3(2) From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: EN 300 328 V1.8.1 new Adaptive equipment requirements Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2012 16:08:18 +0000 Hello group, ETSI 300 328 V1.8.1 adds a new set of requirements for adaptive radio equipment. This will certainly put more of a burden on test labs, including additional test equipment needed to generate the “interference signal”. Has anyone reviewed these new requirements that wishes to offer their opinion or guidance? Bill Stumpf D.L.S.
