A.9 Output Intermodulation
25.1433GPPRelease 17TSUTRA repeater conformance testing
Figure A.9: Measuring system set-up for Output Intermodulation.
Note that a repeater is a bi-directional device. The signal generator may need protection.
The 5 MHz channel filter is only required if the WCDMA signal generator does not fulfil the unwanted emission requirement for base stations (TS25.141 [11], section 6.5) with at least 10 dB margin in the described set-up.
Annex B (informative):
Derivation of Test Requirements
The Test Requirements in this specification have been calculated by relaxing the Minimum Requirements of the core specification using the Test Tolerances defined in subclause 5.2. When the Test Tolerance is zero, the Test Requirement will be the same as the Minimum Requirement. When the Test Tolerance is non-zero, the Test Requirements will differ from the Minimum Requirements, and the formula used for this relaxation is given in table B.1.

Annex C (informative):
Acceptable uncertainty of Test Equipment
This informative annex specifies the critical parameters of the components of an overall Test System (e.g. signal generators, signal analysers etc.) which are necessary when assembling a Test System which complies with subclause 5.1 Acceptable uncertainty of Test System. These Test Equipment parameters are fundamental to the accuracy of the overall Test System and are unlikely to be improved upon through System Calibration.
