A.3 Repeater stimulus signal spectral purity requirements

38.115-13GPPNRRelease 17Repeater conformance testing - Part 1: Conducted conformance testingTS

The reference channels or test models constituting the repeater stimulus signal shall fulfil the spectral purity requirements defined in table A.3-1, where:

– the reference spectral density shall be taken 200 kHz off the carrier centre frequency with an integration bandwidth of 30 kHz.

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

– f_offset is the separation between the channel 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.

– the minimum spectral density suppression is related to the reference spectral density.
