ACM is allowed.
OBW: 28 / 56 / 112 MHz.
Definition of spectral efficiency classes: refer to EN 302 217-2, clause 4.1.1.3.
Adaptive Coded Modulation (ACM) is allowed.
OBW with Class 4L (16-QAM or equivalent): 28 MHz / 56 MHz with or without ACM. 112 MHz in particularly justified cases with ACM.

10Additional essential requirements--
11Frequency planning assumptionsEN 302 217-2.
Nominal RX input level = - 40 dBm.
ATPC control range = min. 10 dB to max. 20 dB.
Conditions for the nominal RX input level:
- Receiver input, point A in the system block diagram (EN 302 217-1),
- RX input level tolerance: +1 to -10 dB,
- ATPC set to min. TX output power in clear sky conditions (i.e. without rain fading).
=====
ATPC power increases shall be triggered on the basis of propagation effects only. The ATPC system shall not remain at max. available power (EN 302 217-1, clause 3.1) for more than 15 consecutive minutes (ITU-R Rec. F.750).
=====
Remote Transmit Power Control (RTPC) is considered to be an optional feature.
=====
At first CCDP has to be used and then ACCP.
=====
Limits of transmitter power spectral density: Refer to EN 302 217-2, clause 4.2.3.2, Figure 7.
=====
Allowed Reference Modes for ACM:
- 28 / 56 / 112 MHz channelling with 16-QAM modulation.
=====
Min. link distance = 2 km outside polygon ''Alpensüdseite''.
Min. link distance = 1.5 km inside the poly-gon ''Alpensüdseite''.
Polygon ''Alpensüdseite'' LV95 coordinates (CH1903+): 2721311/1072434; 2638386/1114490; 2680819/1156635; 2716723/1158677; 2782207/1137380.
Site sharing radius = 200 m.
=====
Class 3 antenna.
Min. antenna gain = 36 dBi.
Linear (horizontal or vertical) polarization.
Antenna radiation pattern envelope (RPE) according to EN 302 217-4, Figure 25.
OFCOM may impose tighter requirements than the minimum values given in EN 302 217-4 in order to maximize the use of the scarce spectrum resources (Class 4 antenna).
