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

7.1 General

The requirements in clause 7 are expressed for a single receiver antenna connector. For receivers with antenna diversity, the requirements apply for each receiver antenna connector.

For ACS, blocking and intermodulation characteristics, the negative offsets of the interfering signal apply relative to the assigned channel frequency of the lowest carrier frequency used and positive offsets of the interfering signal apply relative to the assigned channel frequency of the highest carrier frequency used.

A BS supporting 1.28Mcps MC-HSUPA receives mutilple carriers simultaneously on adjacent carrier frequencies.

All tests unless otherwise stated in this subclause shall be conducted on Base Station Systems fitted with a full complement of Transceivers for the configuration. The manufacturer shall provide appropriate logical or physical test access to perform all tests in this subclause. Measurements shall include any RX multicoupler.

In all the relevant subclauses in this clause all Bit Error Ratio (BER), Residual BER (RBER) and Frame Erasure Ratio (FER) measurements shall be carried out according to the general rules for statistical testing defined in ITU-T Recommendation O.153 [10] and Annex F.

The BER requirements defined for the receiver characteristics in this clause do not assume HARQ transmissions.

When the BS is configured to receive multiple carriers, all the BER requirements are applicable for each received carrier.

Unless otherwise stated, all tests in this clause shall be performed at the BS antenna connector (test port A).If any external apparatus such as a RX amplifier, a filter or the combination of such devices is used, the tests according to subclauses 5.14.4 shall be performed to ensure that the requirements are met at test port B.

This additional blocking requirement may be applied for the protection of TDD BS receivers when GSM, DCS, UTRA-FDD and/or E-UTRA-FDD BTS are co-located with UTRA TDD Wide Area BS.

The blocking performance requirement applies to interfering signals with center frequency within the ranges specified in the tables below, using a 1MHz step size.

In case this additional blocking requirement is applied, the static reference performance as specified in clause 7.2.1 shall be met with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to BS antenna input using the following parameters.

7.5.2.2.1 General requirements

The static reference performance as specified in clause 7.2 shall be met with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to the BS antenna input using the parameters specified in tables 7.6A-1, 7.7A-1,7.8A-1, 7.9A-1, 7.6A-2, 7.7A-2, 7.8A-2 or 7.9A-2, respectively.

The blocking requirement is always applicable outside the Base Station RF bandwidth or maximum radio bandwidth edges. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the lower (upper) or maximum radio bandwidth edges.

For BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirement in the in-band blocking frequency range applies for each supported operating band. The requirements applies in addition inside any inter RF bandwidth gap as long as the inter RF bandwidth gap size is at least 4.8MHz. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the lower/upper RF bandwidth edges inside the inter RF bandwidth gap and is equal to -2.4MHz/+2.4MHz, respectively.

For BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirement in the out-of-band blocking frequency ranges apply for each supported operating band, with the exception that the in-band blocking frequency ranges of all supported operating bands shall be excluded from the out-of-band blocking requirement.

The blocking performance requirement applies to interfering signals with center frequency within the ranges specified in the tables below, using a 1MHz step size.

NOTE 1: These requirements do not apply when the interfering signal falls within the uplink operating band or in the 10 MHz immediately outside the uplink operating band. NOTE 2: Some combinations of bands may not be possible to co-site based on the requirements above. The current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-location of UTRA TDD with UTRA FDD or E-UTRA FDD 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 [9].

If the fail cases are ≤12, it is allowed to repeat the fail cases 1 time before the final verdict.

7.7.4.2 Procedure

7.7.4.2.1 3,84 Mcps TDD option

(1) Measure the power of the spurious emissions by applying the measuring equipment with the settings as specified in table 7.14. The characteristics of the measurement filter with the bandwidth 3,84 MHz shall be RRC with roll-off α = 0,22. The characteristics of the measurement filters with bandwidths 100 kHz and 1 MHz shall be approximately Gaussian (typical spectrum analyzer filter). The center frequency of the filters shall be stepped in contiguous steps over the frequency bands as specified in table 7.14 and table 7.14AA. The time duration of each step shall be sufficiently long to capture one even (transmit) time slot.

(2) If the BS is equipped with more than one Rx port, interchange the connections of the BS Rx ports and repeat the measurement according to (1).
