25.1043GPPBase Station (BS) radio transmission and reception (FDD)Release 17TS
6.1 General
Unless otherwise stated, the requirements in clause 6 are expressed for a single transmitter antenna connector. In case of transmit diversity, DB-DC-HSDPA or MIMO transmission, the requirements apply for each transmitter antenna connector.
A BS supporting DC-HSDPA and DB-DC-HSDPA transmits two cells simultaneously. A BS supporting DC-HSDPA transmits two cells simultaneously on adjacent carrier frequencies.
Unless otherwise stated, the transmitter characteristics are specified at the BS antenna connector (test port A) with a full complement of transceivers for the configuration in normal operating conditions. If any external apparatus such as a TX amplifier, a filter or the combination of such devices is used, requirements apply at the far end antenna connector (port B).

Secondary CPICH (S-CPICH) power is the code domain power of the Secondary Common Pilot Channel. S-CPICH power is equal to the sum of the P-CPICH power and the power offset, which are signalled to the UE. The power offset is signalled in the IE "Power Offset for S-CPICH for MIMO", for MIMO mode as defined in section 10.3.6.41b in TS 25.331 [11].
When the UE supports MIMO mode with four transmit antennas, the power offset of S-CPICH on antenna 2 is signalled in the IE "Power Offset for S-CPICH for MIMO mode with four transmit antennas on Antenna2" as defined in section 10.3.6.143 in TS 25.331 [11]. The power offset of S-CPICH on antenna 3 and 4 is signalled in the IE "Common Power Offset for S-CPICH for MIMO mode with four transmit antennas on Antenna3 and 4", as defined in section 10.3.6.143 in TS 25.331 [11].

Figure 6.1A: IPDL Time Mask
The requirement applies to all output powers within the total power dynamic range as specified in subclause 6.4.3.
6.4.6 Home base station output power for adjacent channel protection
The Home BS shall be capable of adjusting the transmitter output power to minimize the interference level on the adjacent channels licensed to other operators in the same geographical area while optimize the Home BS coverage. These requirements are only applicable to Home BS. The requirements in this clause are applicable for AWGN radio propagation conditions.
The output power, Pout, of the Home BS shall be as specified in Table 6.3 under the following input conditions:
– CPICH Êc, measured in dBm, is the code power of the Primary CPICH on one of the adjacent channels present at the Home BS antenna connector for the CPICH received on the adjacent channels. If Tx diversity is applied on the Primary CPICH, CPICH Êc shall be the sum in [W] of the code powers of the Primary CPICH transmitted from each antenna.
– Ioh, measured in dBm, is the total received power density, including signals and interference but excluding the own Home BS signal, present at the Home BS antenna connector on the Home BS operating channel.
In case that both adjacent channels are licensed to other operators, the most stringent limit shall apply for Pout. In case the Home BS’s operating channel and both adjacent channels are licensed to the same operator, the requirements of this clause do not apply.
The input conditions defined for the requirements in this section are specified at the antenna connector of the Home BS. For Home BS receivers with diversity, the requirements apply to each antenna connector separately, with the other one(s) terminated or disabled .The requirements are otherwise unchanged. For Home BS(s) without measurement capability, a reference antenna with a gain of 0 dBi is assumed for converting these power levels into field strength requirements.
Table 6.3: Home BS output power for adjacent operator channel protection
Input Conditions |
Output power, Pout (without transmit diversity or any MIMO mode) |
Output power, Pout (with transmit diversity or MIMO mode) |
Output power, Pout (with MIMO mode with four transmit antennas) |
Ioh > CPICH Êc + 43 dB And CPICH Êc ≥ -105dBm |

≤ max(5 dBm, min(17 dBm, CPICH Êc + 97 dB)) |
≤ max(2 dBm, min(14 dBm, CPICH Êc + 94 dB)) |
NOTE 1: The Home BS transmitter output power specified in Table 6.3 assumes a Home BS reference antenna gain of 0 dBi, an target outage zone of 47dB around the Home BS for an UE on the adjacent channel, with an allowance of 2 dB for measurement errors, an ACIR of 33 dB, an adjacent channel UE CPICH Ec/Io target of -18 dB and the same CPICH Êc value at the adjacent channel UE as for the Home BS.
Note 2: For CPICH Êc < -105dBm, the requirement in section 6.2.1 applies.

6.6 Output RF spectrum emissions
6.6.1 Occupied bandwidth
The occupied bandwidth is the width of a frequency band such that, below the lower and above the upper frequency limits, the mean powers emitted are each equal to a specified percentage /2 of the total mean transmitted power. See also ITU-R Recommendation SM.328 [7].
The value of /2 shall be taken as 0,5%.
6.6.1.1 Minimum requirement
The occupied channel bandwidth shall be less than 5 MHz based on a chip rate of 3.84 Mcps.
6.6.2 Out of band emission
Out of band emissions are unwanted emissions immediately outside the channel bandwidth resulting from the modulation process and non-linearity in the transmitter but excluding spurious emissions. This out of band emission requirement is specified both in terms of a spectrum emission mask and adjacent channel power ratio for the transmitter.
6.6.2.1 Spectrum emission mask
The mask defined in Tables 6.3A to 6.6 below may be mandatory in certain regions. In other regions this mask may not be applied.
whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier). In addition, for a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirements apply inside any sub-block gap. In addition, for a BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirements apply inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap. Emissions shall not exceed the maximum level specified in tables 6.3A to 6.6 for the appropriate BS rated output power, in the frequency range from Δf = 2.5 MHz to Δfmax from the carrier frequency, where:
– Δf is the separation between the carrier frequency and the nominal -3dB point of the measuring filter closest to the carrier frequency.
– f_offset is the separation between the carrier frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
– f_offsetmax is either 12.5 MHz or the offset to the UMTS Tx band edge as defined in section 5.2, whichever is the greater.
– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
Inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gaps with Wgap < 20 MHz for BS operating in multiple bands, emissions shall not exceed the cumulative sum of the minimum requirements specified at the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges on each side of the Inter RF Bandwidth gap. The minimum requirement for Base Station RF Bandwidth edge is specified in Tables 6.3A to 6.6E below, where in this case:
– Δf is equal to 2.5MHz plus the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the nominal -3dB point of the measuring filter closest to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge.
– f_offset is equal to 2.5MHz plus the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
– f_offsetmax is either 12.5 MHz or the offset to the UMTS Tx band edge as defined in section 5.2, whichever is the greater.
– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on the same antenna connector, the operating band unwanted emission limits apply also in a supported operating band without any carrier transmitted, in the case where there are carrier(s) transmitted in another supported operating band. In this case, no cumulative limit is applied in the inter-band gap between a supported downlink operating band with carrier(s) transmitted and a supported downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted and
– In case the inter-band gap between a downlink band with carrier(s) transmitted and a downlink band without any carrier transmitted is less than 20MHz, f_offsetmax shall be the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the outermost edges of the two downlink operating bands and the operating band unwanted emission limit of the band where there are carriers transmitted, as defined in the tables of the present subclause, shall apply across both downlink bands.
– In other cases, the operating band unwanted emission limit of the band where there are carriers transmitted, as defined in the tables of the present subclause for the largest frequency offset (Δfmax), shall apply from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency, up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted.
Inside any sub-block gap for a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, emissions shall not exceed the cumulative sum of the minimum requirements specified for the adjacent sub blocks on each side of the sub block gap. The minimum requirement for each sub block is specified in Tables 6.3A to 6.6E below, where in this case:
– Δf is equal to 2.5MHz plus the separation between the sub block edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter closest to the sub block edge.
– f_offset is equal to 2.5MHz plus the separation between the sub block edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
– f_offsetmax is equal to the sub block gap bandwidth minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter plus 2.5MHz.
– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the single-band requirements apply and the cumulative evaluation of the emission limit in the Inter RF Bandwidth gap are not applicable.

NOTE 1: For BS supporting non-contiguous spectrum operation within any operating band, the minimum requirement within sub-block gaps is calculated as a cumulative sum of contributions from adjacent sub blocks on each side of the sub block gap, where the contribution from the far-end sub-block shall be scaled according to the measurement bandwidth of the near-end sub-block. Exception is f ≥ 12.5MHz from both adjacent sub blocks on each side of the sub-block gap, where the spurious emission requirements in subclause 6.6.3.1 shall be met. NOTE 2: For BS supporting multi-band operation with Inter RF Bandwidth gap < 20MHz the minimum requirement within the Inter RF Bandwidth gaps is calculated as a cumulative sum of contributions from adjacent sub-blocks or RF Bandwidth on each side of the Inter RF Bandwidth gap, where the contribution from the far-end sub-block or RF Bandwidth shall be scaled according to the measurement bandwidth of the near-end sub-block or RF Bandwidth. |

The requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the basestation needed to verify compliance with the regional requirement. Compliance with the regional requirement can be determined using the method outlined in Annex D.
In certain regions, the following requirements may apply to UTRA BS operating in Band XXXII within 1452-1492 MHz. The level of unwanted emissions, measured on centre frequencies f_offset with filter bandwidth, according to Table 6.6G shall neither exceed the maximum emission level PEM,B32,a , PEM,B32,b nor PEM,B32,c declared by the manufacturer.

NOTE: The regional requirement, included in [13], is defined in terms of EIRP per antenna, which is dependent on both the BS emissions at the antenna connector and the deployment (including antenna gain and feeder loss). The requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the base station needed to verify compliance with the regional requirement. The assessment of the EIRP level is described in Annex H of TS36.104 [8].
In certain regions, the following requirement may apply to UTRA BS operating in Band XXXII within 1452-1492MHz for the protection of services in spectrum adjacent to the frequency range 1452-1492 MHz. The level of emissions, measured on centre frequencies Ffilter with filter bandwidth according to Table 6.6H shall neither exceed the maximum emission level PEM,B32,d nor PEM,B32,e declared by the manufacturer. This requirement applies in the frequency range 1429-1518MHz even though part of the range falls in the spurious domain.

Notes for Tables 6.3A, 6.4, 6.5 & 6.6
NOTE 3: This frequency range ensures that the range of values of f_offset is continuous.
NOTE 4: As a general rule, the resolution bandwidth of the measuring equipment should be equal to the measurement bandwidth. However, to improve measurement accuracy, sensitivity and efficiency, the resolution bandwidth can be smaller than the measurement bandwidth. When the resolution bandwidth is smaller than the measurement bandwidth, the result should be integrated over the measurement bandwidth in order to obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement bandwidth.
6.6.2.2 Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR)
Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) is the ratio of the RRC filtered mean power centred on the assigned channel frequency to the RRC filtered mean power centred on an adjacent channel frequency.
The requirements shall apply outside the Base Station RF bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer’s specification.
For a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, ACLR requirement also applies for the first adjacent channel, inside any sub-block gap with a gap size Wgap ≥ 15 MHz. The ACLR requirement for the second adjacent channel applies inside any sub-block gap with a gap size Wgap ≥ 20 MHz. The CACLR requirement in subclause 6.6.2.2.2 applies in sub block gaps for the frequency ranges defined in Table 6.7B.
For a BS operating in multiple bands, where multiple bands are mapped onto the same antenna connector,ACLR requirement also applies for the first adjacent channel, inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap with a gap size Wgap ≥ 15 MHz. The ACLR requirement for the second adjacent channel applies inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap with a gap size Wgap ≥ 20 MHz. The CACLR requirement in subclause 6.6.2.2.2 applies in Inter RF Bandwidth gaps for the frequency ranges defined in Table 6.7B.
6.6.2.2.1 Minimum requirement
For Category A Wide Area BS, either the ACLR limits in the tables below or the absolute limit of -13dBm/MHz shall apply, whichever is less stringent.

6.6.2.2.2 Cumulative ACLR requirement in non-contiguous spectrum
The following requirement applies for the sub-block or Inter RF Bandwidth gap sizes listed in Table 6.7B,
– inside a sub-block gap within an operating band for a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum;
– inside an Inter RF Bandwidth gap for a BS capable of multi-band operation, where multiple bands are mapped on the same antenna connector.
The Cumulative Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (CACLR) in a sub-block gap or the Inter RF Bandwidth gap is the ratio of
a) the sum of the filtered mean power centred on the assigned channel frequencies for the two carriers adjacent to each side of the sub-block gap or the Inter RF Bandwidth gap, and
b) the filtered mean power centred on a frequency channel adjacent to one of the respective sub-block edges or Base Station RF Bandwidth edges.
The assumed filter for the adjacent channel frequency is defined in Table 6.7B and the filters on the assigned channels are defined in Table 6.7C.
For Wide Area Category A BS, either the CACLR limits in Table 6.7B or the absolute limit of -13dBm/MHz shall apply, whichever is less stringent.
For Wide Area Category B BS, either the CACLR limits in Table 6.7B or the absolute limit of -15dBm/MHz shall apply, whichever is less stringent.
For Medium Range BS, either the CACLR limits in Table 6.7B or the absolute limit of -25 dBm/MHz shall apply, whichever is less stringent.
For Local Area BS, either the CACLR limits in Table 6.7B or the absolute limit of -32 dBm/MHz shall apply, whichever is less stringent.
The CACLR for UTRA carriers located on either side of the sub-block gap or the Inter RF Bandwidth gap shall be higher than the value specified in Table 6.7B.

6.6.3 Spurious emissions
Spurious emissions are emissions which are caused by unwanted transmitter effects such as harmonics emission, parasitic emission, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out of band emissions. This is measured at the base station antenna connector.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multiple-carrier) and for all transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer’s specification.
The requirements (except 6.6.3.5 and 6.6.3.8 and specifically stated exceptions in Table 6.11) apply at frequencies within the specified frequency ranges, which are more than 12.5MHz below the first carrier frequency used or more than 12.5MHz above the last carrier frequency used.
For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on the same antenna connector, the requirements (except 6.6.3.5 and 6.6.3.8 and specifically stated exceptions in Table 6.11) apply at frequencies within the specified frequency ranges, excluding the frequency ranges which are less than or equal to 12.5MHz below the first carrier frequency used and less than or equal to 12.5MHz above the last carrier frequency used for each supported operating band. For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the single-band requirements apply and the multi-band exclusions and provisions are not applicable.
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements shall be measured as mean power (RMS).
6.6.3.1 Mandatory Requirements

6.6.3.3 Co-existence with other systems in the same geographical area
These requirements may be applied for the protection of UE, MS and/or BS operating in other frequency bands in the same geographical area. The requirements may apply in geographic areas in which both a UTRA FDD BS and a system operating in another frequency band than the FDD operating band are deployed. The system operating in the other frequency band may be GSM, DCS, PCS, CDMA, E-UTRA, UTRA and/or NR.
6.6.3.3.1 Minimum Requirements
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed the limits of Table 6.11 for a BS where requirements for co-existence with the system listed in the first column apply. For BS capable of multi-band operation, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.11 apply for each supported operating band. For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.11 apply for the operating band supported at that antenna connector.

NOTE 1: The co-existence requirements do not apply for the 10 MHz frequency range immediately outside the downlink operating band (see Table 5.0). Emission limits for this excluded frequency range may be covered by local or regional requirements. NOTE 2: The table above assumes that two operating bands, where the frequency ranges would be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical area. For such a case of operation with overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical area, special co-existence requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications. NOTE 3: Void |
6.6.3.4 Co-existence with co-located and co-sited base stations
These requirements may be applied for the protection of other BS receivers when GSM, DCS, PCS, CDMA, E-UTRA, NR and/or UTRA BS are co-located with a UTRA FDD BS.
The requirements in this chapter assume a 30 dB coupling loss between transmitter and receiver. If BSs of different classes are co‑sited, the coupling loss should be increased by the value as stated in TR 25.942 [4] chapter 10.3 in Table 10.1 and Table 10.2.
6.6.3.4.1 Minimum Requirements
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed the limits of Table 6.12 for a Wide Area (WA) BS where requirements for co-location with a BS type listed in the first column apply. For BS capable of multi-band operation, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.12 apply for each supported operating band. For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.12 apply for the operating band supported at that antenna connector.

NOTE 1: The co-location requirements do not apply for the 10 MHz frequency range immediately outside the BS transmit frequency range of a downlink operating band (see Table 5.0). The current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-location with other system on adjacent frequencies for 30dB BS-BS minimum coupling loss. However, there are certain site-engineering solutions that can be used. These techniques are addressed in TR 25.942 [4]. NOTE 2: The table above assumes that two operating bands, where the frequency ranges would be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical area. For such a case of operation with overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical area, special co-existence requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications. |
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed the limits of Table 6.13 for a Medium Range (MR) BS where requirements for co-location with a BS type listed in the first column apply. For BS capable of multi-band operation, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.13 apply for each supported operating band. For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the exclusions and conditions in the Note column of Table 6.13 apply for the operating band supported at that antenna connector.

NOTE 1: The co-location requirements do not apply for the 10 MHz frequency range immediately outside the BS transmit frequency range of a downlink operating band (see Table 5.0). The current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-location with other system on adjacent frequencies for 30dB BS-BS minimum coupling loss. However, there are certain site-engineering solutions that can be used. These techniques are addressed in TR 25.942 [4]. NOTE 2: The table above assumes that two operating bands, where the frequency ranges would be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical area. For such a case of operation with overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical area, special co-existence requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications. NOTE 3: The requirements in this table do not apply to a Rel-10 or an earlier release UTRA LA BS, which is manufactured before 31 December 2013 and upgraded to support features in the present release, where the upgrade does not affect existing RF parts of the radio unit related to this requirement. For such a UTRA LA BS, the corresponding requirements in Rel-10 or the earlier release, which the BS was manufactured for, shall apply. |

6.7 Transmitter intermodulation
The transmitter intermodulation requirement is a measure of the capability of the transmitter to inhibit the generation of signals in its non-linear elements caused by presence of the wanted signal and an interfering signal reaching the transmitter via the antenna.
The transmitter intermodulation level is the power of the intermodulation products when a WCDMA interfering signal is injected into the antenna connector at a power level of 30 dB lower than the rated total output power in the operating band.
For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the single-band requirements apply regardless of the interfering signals position relative to the Inter RF Bandwidth gap.
For multi-carrier operation, the interfering signal offset is defined relative to the lower/upper edge of the wanted signal or edge of sub-block inside a gap. The interfering signal frequency offset shall be as in Table 6.21.
Table 6.21: Interfering signal frequency offset
Parameter |
Value |
Interfering signal centre frequency offset from the wanted signal centre frequency |
-5 MHz -10 MHz -15 MHz +5 MHz +10 MHz +15 MHz |
Interfering signal centre frequency offset from the lower/upper edge of the wanted signal or edge of sub-block inside a gap |
-2.5 MHz -7.5 MHz -12.5 MHz +2.5 MHz +7.5 MHz +12.5 MHz |
NOTE 1: Interference frequencies that are outside of any allocated frequency band for UTRA-FDD downlink specified in subclause 5.2 are excluded from the requirement, unless the interfering signal positions fall within the frequency range of adjacent downlink operating bands in the same geographical area. NOTE 2: NOTE 1 is not applied in Band I, III, VI, VIII, IX, XI, XIX, XXI, and XXXII operating within 1475.9-1495.9MHz, in certain regions. |
6.7.1 Minimum requirement
The transmitter intermodulation level shall not exceed the out of band emission or the spurious emission requirements of clauses 6.6.2 and 6.6.3 in the presence of a WCDMA interfering signal with a power level 30 dB lower than the rated total output power in the operating band.
For a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirement is also applicable inside a sub-block gap for interfering signal offsets where the interfering signal falls completely within the sub-block gap. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the sub-block edges.
For a BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirement is also applicable inside a Inter RF Bandwidth gap for interfering signal offsets where the interfering signal falls completely within the Inter RF Bandwidth gap.
6.8 Transmit modulation
Transmit modulation is specified in three parts, Frequency Error, Error Vector Magnitude and Peak Code Domain Error. These specifications are made with reference to a theoretical modulated waveform.
The theoretical modulated waveform is created by modulating a carrier at the assigned carrier frequency using the same data as was used to generate the measured waveform. The chip modulation rate for the theoretical waveform shall be exactly 3.84 Mcps. The code powers of the theoretical waveform shall be the same as the measured waveform, rather than the nominal code powers used to generate the test signal.
6.8.1 Transmit pulse shape filter
The transmit pulse-shaping filter is a root-raised cosine (RRC) with roll-off =0.22 in the frequency domain. The impulse response of the chip impulse filter RC0(t) is
Where the roll-off factor = 0.22 and the chip duration:
6.8.2 Error Vector Magnitude
The Error Vector Magnitude is a measure of the difference between the reference waveform and the measured waveform. This difference is called the error vector. Both waveforms pass through a matched Root Raised Cosine filter with bandwidth 3.84 MHz and roll-off =0.22. Both waveforms are then further modified by selecting the frequency, absolute phase, absolute amplitude and chip clock timing so as to minimise the error vector. The EVM result is defined as the square root of the ratio of the mean error vector power to the mean reference power expressed as a %. The measurement interval is one timeslot as defined by the C-PICH (when present) otherwise the measurement interval is one timeslot starting with the beginning of the SCH. The requirement is valid over the total power dynamic range as specified in subclause 6.4.3.
6.8.2.1 Minimum requirement
The Error Vector Magnitude shall not be worse than 17.5 % when the base station is transmitting a composite signal using only QPSK modulation.
The Error Vector Magnitude shall not be worse than 12.5 % when the base station is transmitting a composite signal that includes 16QAM modulation.
6.8.3 Peak code Domain error
The Peak Code Domain Error is computed by projecting the error vector (as defined in 6.8.2) onto the code domain at a specified spreading factor. The Code Domain Error for every code in the domain is defined as the ratio of the mean power of the projection onto that code, to the mean power of the composite reference waveform. This ratio is expressed in dB. The Peak Code Domain Error is defined as the maximum value for the Code Domain Error for all codes. The measurement interval is one timeslot as defined by the C-PICH (when present) otherwise the measurement interval is one timeslot starting with the beginning of the SCH.
6.8.3.1 Minimum requirement
The peak code domain error shall not exceed -33 dB at spreading factor 256.
6.8.4 Time alignment error
This requirement applies to frame timing in Tx diversity, MIMO transmission, DC-HSDPA, DB-DC-HSDPA, 4C-HSDPA, NC-4C-HSDPA, 8C-HSDPA and their combinations.
Frames of the WCDMA signals present at the BS transmitter antenna port(s) are not perfectly aligned in time. In relation to each other, the RF signals present at the BS transmitter antenna port(s) experience certain timing differences.
For a specific set of signals/transmitter configuration/transmission mode, Time Alignment Error (TAE) is defined as the largest timing difference between any two signals.
6.8.4.1 Minimum Requirements
For MIMO or TX diversity transmissions, in each cell, TAE shall not exceed ¼ Tc.
For transmission of multiple cells, with or without MIMO or TX diversity, in the same frequency band, TAE shall not exceed ½ Tc.
For transmission of multiple cells, with or without MIMO or TX diversity, in different frequency bands, TAE shall not exceed 5 Tc.
6.8.5 Relative Code Domain Error for 64QAM modulation
The Relative Code Domain Error is computed by projecting the error vector (as defined in 6.8.2) onto the code domain at a specified spreading factor. Only the active code channels in the composite reference waveform are considered for this requirement. The Relative Code Domain Error for every active code is defined as the ratio of the mean power of the error projection onto that code, to the mean power of the active code in the composite reference waveform. This ratio is expressed in dB. The measurement interval is one frame.
The requirement for Relative Code Domain Error is only applicable for 64QAM modulated codes.
6.8.5.1 Minimum requirement
The average Relative Code Domain Error for 64QAM modulated codes shall not exceed -21 dB at spreading factor 16.
