8 Performance requirements

37.1043GPPMulti-Standard Radio (MSR) Base Station (BS) radio transmission and receptionNR, E-UTRA, UTRA and GSM/EDGERelease 17TS

Performance requirements specify the ability of the BS to correctly demodulate signals in various conditions and configurations. For NR, UTRA and E-UTRA the requirements specify a minimum throughput or maximum BLER or BER that shall be achieved at a specific SNR. For GSM/EDGE the requirements specify a maximum FER, BLER or BER that shall be achieved at specific sensitivity levels (C) and specific carrier-to-interference ratios (C/I).

8.1 E-UTRA minimum requirement

For E-UTRA, the minimum requirements for performance are specified in TS 36.104 [4], clause 8.

8.2 UTRA FDD minimum requirement

For UTRA FDD, the minimum requirements for performance are specified in TS 25.104 [2], clause 8.

8.3 UTRA TDD minimum requirement

For UTRA TDD, the minimum requirements for performance are specified in TS 25.105 [3], clause 8.

8.4 GSM/EDGE minimum requirement

For GSM/EDGE, the minimum requirements for reference sensitivity level and reference interference level are specified in TS 45.005 [5], applicable parts of clauses 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6. The conditions specified in TS 45.005 [5], Annex P.1 are valid for GSM sensitivity and interference performance.

8.5 NR minimum requirement

For NR, the minimum requirements for performance (BS type 1-C) are specified in TS 38.104 [17], clause 8.

8.6 NB-IoT minimum requirement

For NB-IoT, the minimum requirements for performance are specified in TS 36.104 [4], clause 8.5.
