ETSI EN 300 328 is a European harmonized standard that specifies the regulatory requirement for data transmission equipment operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and using wide band modulation techniques in Europe. This standard covers technology such as Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth and ZigBee® but also other proprietary transmission systems that use the 2.4 GHz ISM band.
In the current version of V2.1.1, which was released in November, 2016 under the European Radio Equipment Directive 2014/53/EU (RED), a new requirement regarding receiver blocking performance was added and this application report shows how it can be measured for a Bluetooth low energy system using a Rohde & Schwartz vector signal generator. The same method can be applied for most other transmission systems or signal generator vendors.
