6 Output power

25.1163GPPRelease 17TSUTRA repeater radio transmission and reception (LCR TDD)

Output power, Pout, of the repeater is the mean power of one carrier at maximum repeater gain delivered to a load with resistance equal to the nominal load impedance of the transmitter.

Rated output power, PRAT, of the repeater is the mean power level per carrier at maximum repeater gain that the manufacturer has declared to be available at the antenna connector.

6.1 Maximum output power

Maximum output power, Pmax, of the repeater is the mean power level per carrier measured at the antenna connector in specified reference condition.

6.1.1 Minimum Requirements

The requirements shall apply at maximum gain, with LCR TDD signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated output power per channel.

When the power of all signals is increased by 10 dB, compared to the power level that produce the maximum rated output power, the requirements shall still be met.

In normal conditions, the Repeater maximum output power shall remain within limits specified in Table 6.1 relative to the manufacturer’s rated output power.

Table 6.1: Repeater output power; normal conditions

Rated output power	Limit
P  31 dBm	+2 dB and -2 dB
P < 31 dBm	+3 dB and -3 dB

In extreme conditions, the Repeater maximum output power shall remain within the limits specified in Table 6.2 relative to the manufacturer’s rated output power.

Table 6.2: Repeater output power; extreme conditions

Rated output power	Limit
P  31 dBm	+2,5 dB and -2,5 dB
P < 31 dBm	+4 dB and -4 dB

In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the ranges of conditions defined as normal.
