7.6 Blocking

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

7.6.1 General blocking requirement

The blocking characteristics is a measure of the receiver ability to receive a wanted signal at its assigned channel in the presence of an unwanted interferer, which are either a 1.4MHz, 3MHz or 5MHz E-UTRA signal for in-band blocking or a CW signal for out-of-band blocking. The interfering signal shall be an E-UTRA signal as specified in Annex C.

7.6.1.1 Minimum requirement

For E-UTRA, the throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel, with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to BS antenna input using the parameters in Tables 7.6.1.1-1, 7.6.1.1-1a, 7.6.1.1-1b, 7.6.1.1-1c and 7.6.1.1-2. The reference measurement channel for the wanted signal is identified in Table 7.2.1-1, 7.2.1-2, 7.2.1-3 and 7.2.1-4 for each channel bandwidth and further specified in Annex A.

The blocking requirement is applicable outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth edges.

For a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum within any operating band, the blocking requirement applies in addition inside any sub-block gap, in case the sub-block gap size is at least as wide as twice the interfering signal minimum offset in Table 7.6.1.1-2. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the sub-block edges inside the sub-block gap.

For a BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirement in the in-band blocking frequency ranges applies for each supported operating band. The requirement applies in addition inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap, in case the Inter RF Bandwidth gap size is at least as wide as twice the interfering signal minimum offset in Table 7.6.1.1-2.

For a BS capable of multi-band operation, the requirement in the out-of-band blocking frequency ranges apply for each operating band, with the exception that the in-band blocking frequency ranges of all supported operating bands according to Tables 7.6.1.1-1, 7.6.1.1-1a and 7.6.1.1-1c shall be excluded from the out-of-band blocking requirement.

For E-UTRA with NB-IoT in-band/guard band operation, the throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel, with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to BS antenna input using the parameters in Tables 7.6.1.1-5, 7.6.1.1-5a, 7.6.1.1-5b, 7.6.1.1-5c and 7.6.1.1-6. The reference measurement channel for the wanted signal is identified in Table 7.2.1-1, 7.2.1-2, 7.2.1-3 and 7.2.1-4 for each channel bandwidth for E-UTRA, Table 7.2.1-5, 7.2.1-5a, 7.2.1-5b and 7.2.1-5c for NB-IoT and further specified in Annex A.

The blocking requirement is applicable outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth edges.

Note 1: PREFSENS depends on the channel bandwidth as specified in Table 7.2.1-1 for E-UTRA and is specified in Table 7.2.1-5 for NB-IoT.

Note 2: For a BS capable of multiband operation, in case of interfering signal that is not in the in-band blocking frequency range of the operating band where the wanted signal is present, and not in the in-band blocking frequency range of an adjacent or overlapping operating band, the wanted signal mean power is equal to PREFSENS + 1.4 dB.

Note 3: For NB-IoT, up to 24 exceptions are allowed for spurious response frequencies in each wanted signal frequency when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the above throughput requirement shall be met when the blocking signal is set to a level of -40 dBm for 15 kHz subcarrier spacing and -46 dBm for 3.75 kHz subcarrier spacing. In addition, each group of exceptions shall not exceed three contiguous measurements using a 1MHz step size.

Note 1: PREFSENS depends on the channel bandwidth as specified in Table 7.2.1-1 for E-UTRA and is specified in Table 7.2.1-5a for NB-IoT.

Note 2: For a BS capable of multiband operation, in case of interfering signal that is not in the in-band blocking frequency range of the operating band where the wanted signal is present, and not in the in-band blocking frequency range of an adjacent or overlapping operating band, the wanted signal mean power is equal to PREFSENS + 1.4 dB.

Note 3: For NB-IoT, up to 24 exceptions are allowed for spurious response frequencies in each wanted signal frequency when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the above throughput requirement shall be met when the blocking signal is set to a level of -40 dBm for 15 kHz subcarrier spacing and -46 dBm for 3.75 kHz subcarrier spacing. In addition, each group of exceptions shall not exceed three contiguous measurements using a 1MHz step size.

NOTE: Tables 7.6.1.1-5, 7.6.1.1-5a and 7.6.1.1-5b assume that two operating bands, where the downlink operating band (see Table 5.5-1) of one band would be within the in-band blocking region of the other band, are not deployed in the same geographical area.

7.6.2 Co-location with other base stations

This additional blocking requirement may be applied for the protection of E-UTRA and NB-IoT BS receivers when GSM, CDMA, UTRA, E-UTRA, NR or NB-IoT BS operating in a different frequency band are co-located with an E-UTRA or NB-IoT BS. The requirement is applicable to all channel bandwidths supported by the E-UTRA BS and E-UTRA with NB-IoT in-band/guard band operation.

The requirements in this clause assume a 30 dB coupling loss between interfering transmitter and E-UTRA or NB-IoT BS receiver and are based on co-location with base stations of the same class.

7.6.2.1 Minimum requirement

The throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel, with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to BS antenna input using the parameters in Table 7.6.2.1-1 for Wide Area BS, in Table 7.6.2.1-2 for Local Area BS and in Table 7.6.2.1-3 for Medium Range BS. The reference measurement channel for the wanted signal is identified in Tables 7.2.1-1, 7.2.1-2 and 7.2.1-4 for each channel bandwidth for E-UTRA, Table 7.2.1-5 for NB-IoT and further specified in Annex A.

Note*: PREFSENS depends on the channel bandwidth as specified in Table 7.2.1-1 for E-UTRA and is specified in Table 7.2.1-5 for NB-IoT.

Note**: For NB-IoT, up to 24 exceptions are allowed for spurious response frequencies in each wanted signal frequency when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the above throughput requirement shall be met when the blocking signal is set to a level of -40 dBm for 15 kHz subcarrier spacing and -46 dBm for 3.75 kHz subcarrier spacing. In addition, each group of exceptions shall not exceed three contiguous measurements using a 1MHz step size.

NOTE 1: Except for a BS operating in Band 13, these requirements do not apply when the interfering signal falls within any of the supported uplink operating band or in the 10 MHz immediately outside any of the supported uplink operating band.
For a BS operating in band 13 the requirements do not apply when the interfering signal falls within the frequency range 768-797 MHz.

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 or E-UTRA TDD with 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 [8].

NOTE 3: For a BS operating in band 11, 21 or 74, the requirement for co-location with Band 32 applies for interfering signal within the frequency range 1475.9-1495.9 MHz.

NOTE 4: Co-located TDD base stations that are synchronized and using the same or adjacent operating band can receive without special co-location requirements. For unsynchronized base stations, special co-location requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.

Note*: PREFSENS depends on the channel bandwidth as specified in Table 7.2.1-2.

Note**: For NB-IoT, up to 24 exceptions are allowed for spurious response frequencies in each wanted signal frequency when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the above throughput requirement shall be met when the blocking signal is set to a level of -40 dBm for 15 kHz subcarrier spacing and -46 dBm for 3.75 kHz subcarrier spacing. In addition, each group of exceptions shall not exceed three contiguous measurements using a 1MHz step size.

NOTE 1: Except for a BS operating in Band 13, these requirements do not apply when the interfering signal falls within any of the supported uplink operating band or in the 10 MHz immediately outside any of the supported uplink operating band.
For a BS operating in band 13 the requirements do not apply when the interfering signal falls within the frequency range 768-797 MHz.

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 or E-UTRA TDD with 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 [8].

NOTE 3: For a BS operating in band 11, 21 or 74, the requirement for co-location with Band 32 applies for interfering signal within the frequency range 1475.9-1495.9 MHz.

NOTE 4: Co-located TDD base stations that are synchronized and using the same or adjacent operating band can receive without special co-location requirements. For unsynchronized base stations (except in Band 46), special co-location requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.

Table 7.6.2.1-3: Blocking performance requirement for E-UTRA and NB-IoT Medium Range BS when co-located with BS in other frequency bands.

7.6.3 Additional requirement (regional)

For the Public Safety LTE BS in Korea from 718 to 728 MHz in band 28, the wanted and the interfering signal coupled to the BS antenna input are specified in Tables G-2.2, G-2.3, G-2.4 and G-2.5 for the blocking requirements. The reference measurement channel for the wanted signal is A.1-3 for 10 MHz channel bandwidth and further specified in Annex A.
