7.4 Maximum input level

25.1023GPPRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) radio transmission and reception (TDD)

Tools: ARFCN - Frequency Conversion for 5G NR/LTE/UMTS/GSM

The maximum input level is defined as the maximum mean power received at the UE antenna port which does not degrade the specified minimum requirement.

7.4.1 Minimum Requirements for DPCH reception

7.4.1.1 3.84 Mcps TDD Option

For non-IMB operation, the BER shall not exceed 0.001 for the parameters specified in Table 7.3.

For IMB operation, the BLER shall not exceed 0.01 for the parameters specified in Table 7.3.

Parameter	Level	Unit
	-7 *	dB
	-25	dBm/3.84 MHz
NOTE *: Subtract 0.77dB when using the IMB DL reference measurement channel. For IMB the term DPCH_Ec refers to the sum of the energy of the physical channels comprising the IMB DL reference measurement channel.

7.4.1.2 1.28 Mcps TDD Option

The BER shall not exceed 0.001 for the parameters specified in Table 7.3A

7.4.2.2 1.28 Mcps TDD Option

7.4.2.2.1 Minimum requirement for 16QAM

The throughput shall be ≥ 90% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channels as specified in Table 7.3CA for different UE categories with the parameters specified in Table 7.3C. For multi-carrier reception, DL reference channel specified in Table 7.3CA and the minimum requirements shall be applied to each carrier simultaneously.
