Note 1: FDL_low and FDL_high refer to each E-UTRA frequency band specified in Table 5.5-1.

Note 2: As exceptions, measurements with a level up to the applicable requirements defined in Table 6.6.3.1.3-2 are permitted for each assigned E-UTRA carrier used in the measurement due to 2nd, 3rd, 4th [or 5th] harmonic spurious emissions. Due to spreading of the harmonic emission the exception is also allowed for the first 1 MHz frequency range immediately outside the harmonic emission on both sides of the harmonic emission. This results in an overall exception interval centred at the harmonic emission of (2MHz + N x LCRB x 180kHz), where N is 2, 3, 4, [5] for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th [or 5th ] harmonic respectively. The exception is allowed if the measurement bandwidth (MBW) totally or partially overlaps the overall exception interval.

Note 3: To meet these requirements some restriction will be needed for either the operating band or protected band.

Note 4: N/A

Note 5: For non synchronised TDD operation to meet these requirements some restriction will be needed for either the operating band or protected band.

Note 6: N/A

Note 7: Applicable when co-existence with PHS system operating in 1884.5 -1919.6MHz.

Note 8: Applicable when co-existence with PHS system operating in 1884.5 -1915.7MHz.

Note 9: N/A

Note 10: N/A

Note 11: Whether the applicable frequency range should be 793-805MHz instead of 799-805MHz is TBD.

Note 12: The emissions measurement shall be sufficiently power averaged to ensure a standard deviation < 0.5 dB.

Note 13: This requirement applies for 5, 10, 15 and 20 MHz E-UTRA channel bandwidth allocated within 1744.9MHz and 1784.9MHz.

Note 14: N/A

Note 15: These requirements also apply for the frequency ranges that are less than FOOB (MHz) in Table 6.6.3.1.3-1 from the edge of the channel bandwidth.

Note 16: N/A

Note 17: N/A

Note 18: N/A

Note 19: Applicable when the assigned E-UTRA carrier is confined within 718 MHz and 748 MHz and when the channel bandwidth used is 5 or 10 MHz.

Note 20: N/A

Note 21: This requirement is applicable for any channel bandwidths within the range 2500 – 2570 MHz with the following restriction: for carriers of 15 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 2560.5 – 2562.5 MHz and for carriers of 20 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 2552 – 2560 MHz the requirement is applicable only for an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 54 RB.

Note 22: This requirement is applicable for any channel bandwidths within the range 2570 – 2615 MHz with the following restriction: for carriers of 15 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 2605.5 – 2607.5 MHz and for carriers of 20 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 2597 – 2605 MHz the requirement is applicable only for an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 54 RB.
For carriers with channel bandwidth overlapping the frequency range 2615 – 2620 MHz the requirement applies with the maximum output power configured to +19 dBm in the IE P-Max.

Note 23: This requirement is applicable only for the following cases:
– for carriers of 5 MHz channel bandwidth when carrier centre frequency (Fc) is within the range 902.5 MHz ≤ Fc < 907.5 MHz with an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 20 RB
– for carriers of 5 MHz channel bandwidth when carrier centre frequency (Fc) is within the range 907.5 MHz ≤ Fc ≤ 912.5 MHz without any restriction on uplink transmission bandwidth
– for carriers of 10 MHz channel bandwidth when carrier centre frequency (Fc) is Fc = 910 MHz with an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 32 RB with RBstart > 3.

Note 24: As exceptions, measurements with a level up to the applicable requirement of -38 dBm/MHz is permitted for each assigned E-UTRA carrier used in the measurement due to 2nd harmonic spurious emissions. An exception is allowed if there is at least one individual RB within the transmission bandwidth (see Figure 5.6-1) for which the 2nd harmonic totally or partially overlaps the measurement bandwidth (MBW).

Note 25: As exceptions, measurements with a level up to the applicable requirement of -36 dBm/MHz is permitted for each assigned E-UTRA carrier used in the measurement due to 3rd harmonic spurious emissions. An exception is allowed if there is at least one individual RB within the transmission bandwidth (see Figure 5.6-1) for which the 3rd harmonic totally or partially overlaps the measurement bandwidth (MBW).

Note 26: For these adjacent bands, the emission limit could imply risk of harmful interference to UE(s) operating in the protected operating band.

Note 27: This requirement is applicable for any channel bandwidths within the range 1920 – 1980 MHz with the following restriction: for carriers of 15 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 1927.5 – 1929.5 MHz and for carriers of 20 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 1930 – 1938 MHz the requirement is applicable only for an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 54 RB.

Note 29: N/A

Note 30: This requirement applies when the E-UTRA carrier is confined within 2545-2575MHz or 2595-2645MHz and the channel bandwidth is 10 or 20 MHz.

Note 31: N/A

Note 33: This requirement is only applicable for carriers with bandwidth confined within 1885-1920 MHz (requirement for carriers with at least 1RB confined within 1880 – 1885 MHz is not specified). This requirement applies for an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to [54 RB] for carriers of 15 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 1892.5 – 1894.5 MHz and for carriers of 20 MHz bandwidth when carrier centre frequency is within the range 1895 – 1903 MHz.

Note 34: This requirement is applicable for 5 and 10 MHz E-UTRA channel bandwidth allocated within 718-728MHz. For carriers of 10 MHz bandwidth, this requirement applies for an uplink transmission bandwidth less than or equal to 30 RB with RBstart > 1 and RBstart<48.

Note 35: This requirement is applicable in the case of a 10 MHz E-UTRA carrier confined within 703 MHz and 733 MHz, otherwise the requirement of -25 dBm with a measurement bandwidth of 8 MHz applies.

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 [2] subclause 6.6.3E.2.

This test use minimum requirements from many releases of TS 36.101 [2] due to release independence defined in TS 36.307 [16]

The requirements for the UE are release specific and can be found in Tables 6.6.3E.2.3-1.

Table 6.6.3E.2.3-1

NOTE 1: The following is applied to Note2 in Table 6.6.3E.2.3-1. For frequency with 2nd, 3rd or 4th harmonic spurious emissions, the measurements are covered in 6.6.3.1.

NOTE 2: The restriction on the maximum uplink transmission to 36 RB in Notes 14 and 15 of Table 6.6.3E.2.5-1 is intended for conformance testing and may be applied to network operation to facilitate coexistence when the aggressor and victim bands are deployed in the same geographical area. The applicable spurious emission requirement of -15.5 dBm/5MHz is a least restrictive technical condition for FDD/TDD coexistence and may have to be revised in the future.

– Connect SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508[7] Annex A Figure A.3 using only main UE Tx/Rx antenna.

Same message contents as in clause 6.6.3.3.4.3.

6.6.3E.3.5 Test requirement

This clause specifies the requirements for the specified E-UTRA band for an additional spectrum emission requirement with protected bands as indicated from table 6.6.3E.3.5.1-1 to table 6.6.3E.3.5.2-1.

NOTE: For measurement conditions at the edge of each frequency range, the lowest frequency of the measurement position in each frequency range should be set at the lowest boundary of the frequency range plus MBW/2. The highest frequency of the measurement position in each frequency range should be set at the highest boundary of the frequency range minus MBW/2. MBW denotes the measurement bandwidth defined for the protected band.

6.6.3E.3.5.1 Test requirement (network signalled value "NS_07")

When "NS_07" is indicated in the cell:

– the measured UE mean power in the channel bandwidth, derived in step 3, shall fulfil requirements in Table 6.2.4.5-7 as appropriate,

and

– the measured average power of spurious emission, derived in step 4, shall not exceed the described value in Table 6.6.3E.3.5.1-1. These requirements also apply for the frequency ranges that are less than ΔfOOB (MHz) in Table 6.6.3.1.3-1 from the edge of the channel bandwidth.
