  "text": "In these Regulations—\n“automotive vehicle” has the meaning given for “vehicle” by Article 2 of Council Directive 70/156/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to the type-approval of motor vehicles and their trailers, as amended;\n“dBm” means decibel milliWatt;\n“dBm/MHz” means decibel per milliWatt;\n“e.i.r.p.” means equivalent isotropic radiated power;\n“equivalent transmission level” means the peak level of transmission contained within a bandwidth which is other than 50 MHz, centred on the frequency at which the highest mean radiated power occurs, and which is the relevant maximum peak e.i.r.p. scaled down by a factor of 20log(50/x)dB, where “x” is the other bandwidth expressed in MHz;\n“GHz” means gigahertz;\n“indoors” means inside buildings or places in which the shielding will typically provide the necessary attenuation to protect wireless telegraphy against harmful interference;\n“mean e.i.r.p. density” means the mean e.i.r.p. measured with a 1 MHz resolution bandwidth, a root-mean-square detector and an averaging time of one millisecond or less;\n“MHz” means megahertz;\n“peak e.i.r.p.” means the peak e.i.r.p. contained within a 50 MHz bandwidth centred on the frequency at which the highest mean radiated power occurs;\n“railway vehicle” has the meaning given by Article 3 of EC Regulation 91/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2002 on rail transport statistics, as amended;\n“ultra-wideband equipment” means a wireless telegraphy station or wireless telegraphy apparatus incorporating, as an integral part or as an accessory, technology for short-range radiocommunication involving the intentional generation and transmission of radio-frequency energy that spreads over a frequency range wider than 50 MHz, which may overlap several frequency bands allocated to wireless telegraphy.",
