6.6.3 Operating band unwanted emissions

36.1043GPPBase Station (BS) radio transmission and receptionEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)Release 18TS

Unless otherwise stated, the Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of each supported downlink operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of each supported downlink operating band.

The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer’s specification. In addition, for a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirements apply inside any sub-block gap. In addition, for a BS operating in multiple bands, the requirements apply inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap.

For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on separate antenna connectors, the single-band requirements apply and the cumulative evaluation of the emission limit in the Inter RF Bandwidth gap are not applicable.

For a BS supporting E-UTRA with NB-IoT guard band operation, the Operating band unwanted emissions requirements apply to E-UTRA carrier with channel bandwidth larger than or equal to 5 MHz.

The unwanted emission limits in the part of the downlink operating band that falls in the spurious domain are consistent with ITU-R Recommendation SM.329 [2].

Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:

– Δf is the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the nominal -3dB point of the measuring filter closest to the carrier frequency.

– f_offset is the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.

– f_offsetmax is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the downlink operating band.

– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

For E-UTRA or E-UTRA with NB-IoT (in-band and/or guard band) BS operating in multiple bands, inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gaps with Wgap < 20 MHz, emissions shall not exceed the cumulative sum of the minimum requirements specified at the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges on each side of the Inter RF Bandwidth gap. The minimum requirement for Base Station RF Bandwidth edge is specified in Tables 6.6.3.1-1 to 6.6.3.3-3 below, where in this case:

– Δf is the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter closest to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge.

– f_offset is the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.

– f_offsetmax is equal to the Inter RF Bandwidth gap minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

For BS capable of multi-band operation where multiple bands are mapped on the same antenna connector, the operating band unwanted emission limits apply also in a supported operating band without any carrier transmitted, in the case where there are carrier(s) transmitted in other supported operating band(s). In this case where there is no carrier transmitted in an operating band, the operating band unwanted emission limit, as defined in the tables of the present clause for the largest frequency offset (Δfmax), of a band where there is no carrier transmitted shall apply from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency, up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the supported downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted. And no cumulative limit is applied in the inter-band gap between a supported downlink operating band with carrier(s) transmitted and a supported downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted.

For a multicarrier E-UTRA BS or BS configured for intra-band contiguous or non-contiguous carrier aggregation the definitions above apply to the lower edge of the carrier transmitted at the lowest carrier frequency and the upper edge of the carrier transmitted at the highest carrier frequency within a specified frequency band.

In addition inside any sub-block gap for a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, emissions shall not exceed the cumulative sum of the minimum requirements specified for the adjacent sub blocks on each side of the sub block gap. The minimum requirement for each sub block is specified in Tables 6.6.3.1-1 to 6.6.3.3-3 below, where in this case:

– Δf is the separation between the sub block edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter closest to the sub block edge.

– f_offset is the separation between the sub block edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.

– f_offsetmax is equal to the sub block gap bandwidth minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

– Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

For Wide Area BS, the requirements of either clause 6.6.3.1 (Category A limits) or clause 6.6.3.2 (Category B limits) shall apply.

For Local Area BS, the requirements of clause 6.6.3.2A shall apply (Category A and B).

For Home BS, the requirements of clause 6.6.3.2B shall apply (Category A and B).

For Medium Range BS, the requirements in clause 6.6.3.2C shall apply (Category A and B).

The application of either Category A or Category B limits shall be the same as for Transmitter spurious emissions (Mandatory Requirements) in clause 6.6.4.1.

The requirements of clauses 6.6.3.1 and 6.6.3.2 apply to Wide Area BS that supports E-UTRA or E-UTRA with NB-IoT (in-band and/or guard band). The requirements for Wide Area BS that supports NB-IoT standalone are in clause 6.6.3.2E.

The requirements of clauses 6.6.3.2A apply to Local Area BS that supports E-UTRA or E-UTRA with NB-IoT (in-band and/or guard band). The requirements for Local Area BS that supports NB-IoT standalone are in clause 6.6.3.2F.

The requirements of clauses 6.6.3.2B apply to Home BS that supports E-UTRA or E-UTRA with NB-IoT (in-band and/or guard band). The requirements for Home BS that supports NB-IoT standalone are in clause 6.6.3.2G.

The requirements of clauses 6.6.3.2C apply to Medium Range BS that supports E-UTRA or E-UTRA with NB-IoT (in-band and/or guard band). The requirements for Medium Range BS that supports NB-IoT standalone are in clause 6.6.3.2H.

It is in some cases not stated in the present document whether a requirement is mandatory or under what exact circumstances that a limit applies, since this is set by local or regional regulation. An overview of regional requirements in the present document is given in clause 4.3.

The following normative requirement covers the base station, to be used together with other information about the site installation to verify compliance with the requirement in FCC Order DA 20-48.

The requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the base station needed to verify compliance with the regional requirement.

The following notes are common to all clauses in 6.6.3:

NOTE 6: Local or regional regulations may specify another excluded frequency range, which may include frequencies where synchronised E-UTRA TDD systems operate.

NOTE 7: E-UTRA TDD base stations that are synchronized can transmit without these additional co-existence requirements.

NOTE 8: As a general rule for the requirements in clause 6.6.3, the resolution bandwidth of the measuring equipment should be equal to the measurement bandwidth. However, to improve measurement accuracy, sensitivity and efficiency, the resolution bandwidth may be smaller than the measurement bandwidth. When the resolution bandwidth is smaller than the measurement bandwidth, the result should be integrated over the measurement bandwidth in order to obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement bandwidth.

NOTE 9: This frequency range ensures that the range of values of f_offset is continuous.

NOTE 10: The requirement is not applicable when Δfmax < 10 MHz.

NOTE 11: For Home BS, the parameter P is defined as the aggregated maximum output power of all transmit antenna connectors of Home BS.
