For category M1 UE Power Class 3, 5 and 6, the allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power specified in Table 6.2.2E-1 due to higher order modulation and transmit bandwidth configuration (resource blocks) is specified in Tables 6.2.3E-1, 6.2.3E-2 and 6.2.3E-5 respectively.

For category M2 UE Power Class 3, 5 and 6, the allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power specified in Table 6.2.2E-1 due to higher order modulation and transmit bandwidth configuration (resource blocks) is specified in Table 6.2.3E-3, Table 6.2.3E-4 and Table 6.2.3E-6 respectively.

For subPRB allocation of category M1 UE of Power Class 3, there is no MPR applies. For subPRB allocation of category M2 UE of Power Class 3, the allowed MPR due to higher order modulation and transmit bandwidth configuration (subcarrier) is specified in in Table 6.2.3E-7.

For PRACH, PUCCH and SRS transmissions, the allowed MPR is according to that specified for PUSCH QPSK modulation for the corresponding transmission bandwidth.

For each subframe, the MPR is evaluated per slot and given by the maximum value taken over the transmission(s) within the slot; the maximum MPR over the two slots is then applied for the entire subframe.

For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR, the power limits specified in subclause 6.2.5 apply.

No other MPR requirement than those specified in tables 6.2.3E-1 and Table 6.2.3E-2 and Table 6.2.3E-5 applies to category M1 and those specified in tables 6.2.3E-3 and Table 6.2.3E-4 and Table 6.2.3E-6 applies to category M2 UE.
