6.2.2A UE maximum output power for CA

36.1013GPPEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)Release 18TSUser Equipment (UE) radio transmission and reception

The following UE Power Classes define the maximum output power for any transmission bandwidth within the aggregated channel bandwidth.

The maximum output power is measured as the sum of the maximum output power at each UE antenna connector. The period of measurement shall be at least as defined in Table 6.2.2A-0a.

For inter-band carrier aggregation with one uplink component carrier assigned to one E-UTRA band the requirements in subclause 6.2.2 apply. For inter-band carrier aggregation with two uplink contiguous component carrier assigned to one E-UTRA band the requirements specified in Table 6.2.2A-1 apply for that band. For inter-band carrier aggregation with one uplink component carrier assigned to one E-UTRA band in Band 38, 40, 41 or 42, the requirements for power class 2 are not applicable and the corresponding requirements for a power class 3 UE shall apply. For inter-band carrier aggregation with one uplink component carrier assigned to one E-UTRA band in Band 3, 20, 28, or 31, the requirements for power class 1 are not applicable and the corresponding requirements for a power class 3 UE shall apply.

For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to two E-UTRA bands, UE maximum output power shall be measured over all component carriers from different bands. If each band has separate antenna connectors, maximum output power is measured as the sum of maximum output power at each UE antenna connector. The maximum output power is specified in Table 6.2.2A-0.

For E-UTRA CA bands including an uplink LAA Scell in Band 46, the UE shall meet the following additional requirements for transmission within the frequency ranges 5150-5350 MHz and 5470-5725 MHz:

– a maximum mean power density of 10 dBm in any 1 MHz band when the network signaling value NS_28 or NS_29 is indicated in the LAA Scell;

– a maximum mean power density of 11 dBm in any 1 MHz band when the network signaling value NS_30 is indicated in the LAA Scell;

the following additional requirements for transmission within the frequency range 5230-5250 MHz:

– a maximum mean power density of 4 dBm in any 1 MHz band when the network signaling value NS_31 is indicated in the LAA Scell;

the following additional requirements for transmission within the frequency ranges 5150-5230 MHz, 5250-5350 MHz, 5470-5725 MHz and 5725-5850 MHz:

– a maximum mean power density of 10 dBm in any 1 MHz band when the network signaling value NS_31 is indicated in the LAA Scell;

where the said network signaling values are specified in clause 6.2.4.

NOTE 2: 2 refers to the transmission bandwidths (Figure 5.6-1) confined within FUL_low and FUL_low + 4 MHz or FUL_high – 4 MHz and FUL_high, the maximum output power requirement is relaxed by reducing the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB

NOTE 3: PPowerClass is the maximum UE power specified without taking into account the tolerance

NOTE 4: For inter-band carrier aggregation the maximum power requirement should apply to the total transmitted power over all component carriers (per UE).

NOTE 5: For a UE that supports both Band 18 and Band 26, the maximum output power requirement is relaxed by reducing the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB for transmission bandwidths confined within 815 MHz and 818 MHz.

For uplink intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation the maximum output power is specified in Table 6.2.2A-1. For downlink intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation with a single uplink component carrier configured in the E-UTRA band, the maximum output power is specified in Table 6.2.2-1.

For a power class 2 capable UE operating with intra-band uplink contiguous CA bandwidth class C on Band 41, when an IE P-max as defined in TS 36.331 [7] of 23 dBm or lower is indicated in the cell or if the uplink/downlink configuration is 0 or 6, the requirements for power class 2 are not applicable, and the corresponding requirements for a power class 3 UE shall apply.

NOTE 2: If all transmitted resource blocks (Figure 5.6A-1) over all component carriers are confined within FUL_low and FUL_low + 4 MHz or/and FUL_high – 4 MHz and FUL_high, the maximum output power requirement is relaxed by reducing the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB

NOTE 3: PPowerClass is the maximum UE power specified without taking into account the tolerance

NOTE 4: For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation the maximum power requirement should apply to the total transmitted power over all component carriers (per UE).

For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation with one uplink carrier on the PCC, the requirements in subclause 6.2.2 apply. For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation with two uplink carriers the maximum output power is specified in Table 6.2.2A-2.
