With the introduction of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.14], receiver parameters are now included and the removal of the 9 kHz lower limit has brought inductive loop systems and receivers into the present document. Inductive loop transmitters are covered within ETSI EN 303 340 [i.19] along with test receivers; hearing aids containing inductive loop receivers (often referred to as T coil) are now covered in the present document. The frequency range of the present document has been reduced to accommodate inductive loop receivers.

The present document is a testing standard based on spectrum utilization parameters and does not include performance characteristics that may be required by the user nor requirements for interfacing equipment.
