14.18.5a Blocking and spurious response in EGPRS2A configuration
3GPP51.010-1Mobile Station (MS) conformance specificationPart 1: Conformance specificationTS
14.18.5a.1 Definition
Blocking is a measure of the ability of the receiver to receive a modulated wanted input signal in the presence of an unwanted input signal, on frequencies other than those of the spurious responses or the adjacent channels, without exceeding a given degradation. "Wanted signal" in this test is the signal generated by the transmitted RLC data blocks.
14.18.5a.2 Conformance requirement
1. The blocking characteristics of the receiver are specified separately for in-band and out-of-band performance as identified in 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 5.1.
2. The block error rate (BLER) performance for PDTCH/DAS-5 to 12 shall not exceed 10 % depending on Coding Schemes and for USF/DAS-5 to 12 shall not exceed 1 % when the following signals are simultaneously input to the receiver; 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 6.2:
– a useful signal at frequency f0, 3 dB above the reference sensitivity level specified in table 14.18.1a-1 for 8-PSK, 16QAM and 32QAM modulation for PDTCH channels; and in tables 14.18.1a-2 for 8-PSK 16QAM and 32QAM modulation for USF channel with correction values as specified in 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.2;
– a continuous, static sine wave unwanted signal at a level as in the table 14.18-9a and 14.18.9b, and at a frequency (f) which is an integer multiple of 200 kHz.
with the following exceptions, called spurious response frequencies:
a) GSM 400: in band, for a maximum of three occurrences. 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 5.1.
GSM 700, GSM 850 or GSM 900: in band, for a maximum of six occurrences (which if grouped shall not exceed three contiguous occurrences per group). 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 5.1.
DCS 1 800 and PCS 1 900: in band, for a maximum of twelve occurrences (which if grouped shall not exceed three contiguous occurrences per group). 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 5.1.
b) out of band, for a maximum of 24 occurrences (which if below f0 and grouped shall not exceed three contiguous occurrences per group). 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 5.1.
where the above performance shall be met when the continuous sine wave signal (f) is set to a level of 70 dBµV (emf) (i.e. -43 dBm). 3GPP TS 45.005, subclause 5.1.
14.18.5a.3 Test purpose
1. To verify that the in band blocking performance is met without exceeding the total number of allowed in band spurious responses. An allowance is made for the statistical significance of the test.
2. To verify that at selected out of band frequencies, the out of band blocking performance is met without exceeding the total number of allowed out of band spurious responses. An allowance is made for the statistical significance of the test.
NOTE: Not all of the possible out of band frequencies are tested as this results in excessive test time. However, the total number of out of band spurious responses, specified in 3GPP TS 45.005, is allowed to ensure a fair test of the MS.
14.18.5a.4 Method of test
Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure, except the BCCH frequency list shall be empty, on a TCH with an arbitrary ARFCN in the range supported by the MS. The power control level is set to maximum power. The ARFCN of the BCCH shall be the same – or at an offset of +/- 2 channels, than that of the ARFCN for the TCH.
The SS transmits EGPRS RLC data blocks containing random data.
In addition to the wanted Test Signal, the SS transmit a static unmodulated continuous interfering signal (Standard Test Signal I0).
Test procedure
For the ACK/NACK test steps the maximum number of supported time slots shall be used, and for the USF test steps the maximum supported symmetrical UL slot configuration shall be used.
For 8-PSK Modulation:
a) The SS is set to produce a static 8-PSK wanted signal and a static interfering signal at the same time. The SS sets the amplitude of the wanted signal to 4 dB above the reference sensitivity level specified in table 14.18.1a-1 for PDTCH channel and in table 14.18.1a-2 for USF channel with correction values as specified in 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.2;
b) The SS transmits packets on PDTCH using DAS-5 coding to MS on all allocated timeslots.
c) The unwanted signal is of frequency FB. It is applied in turn on the subset of frequencies calculated at step d) in the overall range 100 kHz to 12,75 GHz, where FB is an integer multiple of 200 kHz.
However, frequencies in the range FR ±600 kHz are excluded.
NOTE 1: Allowance must be made for possible spurious signals arising from the SS. These are particularly likely at sub harmonic frequencies nFB where n = 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.
d) The frequencies at which the test is performed (adjusted to an integer multiple of 200 kHz channels most closely approximating the absolute frequency of the calculated blocking signal frequency) are the combined frequencies from i), ii) and iii) which follow:
i) The total frequency range formed by:
GSM 400 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 3,6 MHz)
and Flo – (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 3,6 MHz).
GSM 700 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 7,5 MHz)
and Flo – (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 7,5 MHz).
GSM 850 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 12,5 MHz)
and Flo – (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 12,5 MHz).

and Flo – (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 37,5 MHz).
PCS 1 900: the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 30 MHz)
and Flo – (IF1 + IF2 + … + IFn + 30 MHz).
and

The frequencies in step ii) and iii) lying in the range of frequencies defined by step i) above need not be repeated.
Where:
Flo – local oscillator applied to first receiver mixer
IF1 … IFn – are the n intermediate frequencies
Flo, IF1, IF2 … IFn – shall be declared by the manufacturer in the PIXIT statement
3GPP TS 51.010-1 annex 3.
e) The level of the unwanted signal is set according to table 14.18-9a and 14.18-9b.
f) The SS counts the number of blocks transmitted with current coding scheme and the number of these blocks not acknowledged based on the content of the Ack/Nack Description information element (see 44.060, 12.3) in the Packet Downlink Ack/Nack as sent from the MS to the SS on the PACCH.
NOTE 2: Due to the error rates related to the USF, the MS is likely to occasionally miss its USF for transmitting the Packet Downlink Ack/Nack. As this requirement is not verified in this part of the test, the SS then again assigns uplink resources so the MS can send this message.
g) Once the number of blocks transmitted with the current coding scheme as counted in step f) reaches or exceeds the minimum number of blocks as given in table 14.18-2, the SS calculates the Block error ratio. The SS resets both counters. If a failure is indicated, it is noted and counted towards the allowed exemption total.
In the case of failures discovered at the predicted frequencies at steps d i), ii) or iii) the test is repeated on the adjacent channels ±200 kHz away. If either of these two frequencies fail then the next channel 200 kHz beyond is also be tested. This process is repeated until all channels constituting the group of failures is known.
h) The SS sets the value of the USF/DAS-7 such as to allocate the uplink to the MS.
j) The unwanted signal is of frequency FB. It is applied in turn on the subset of frequencies calculated at step d) in the overall range 100 kHz to 12,75 GHz, where FB is an integer multiple of 200 kHz.
However, frequencies in the range FR ±600 kHz are excluded.

k) The level of the unwanted signal is set according to table 14.18-9a and 14.18-9b.
l) The SS counts the number of times the USF is allocated to the MS, and the number of times the MS does not transmit while being allocated the uplink.
m) Once the number of USF/DAS-7 allocating the uplink for the MS as counted in step l) reaches or exceeds the minimum number of blocks as given in table 14.18-2, the SS calculates the Block error ratio. The SS resets both counters. If a failure is indicated, it is noted and counted towards the allowed exemption total.

14.18.5a.5 Test requirements
The block error ratio as calculated by the SS for different channels and coding schemes shall not exceed the conformance requirement. Testing the conformance requirement can be done either in the classical way with a fixed minimum number of samples (refer to section 14.18.5a.5.2) or using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with performance not on the limit (refer to section 14.18.5a.5.1). Both methods are based on a bad DUT factor M = 1.5.
This shall apply under normal test voltage and ambient temperature, and with the interfering signal at any frequency in the range specified.
The following exceptions are allowed:
GSM 400: A maximum of three failures in the band 457,6 MHz to 473,6 MHz for GSM450 and in the band 486,0 MHz to 502,0 MHz for GSM480

A maximum of 24 in the combined bands 100 kHz to 1 785 MHz and 1 920 MHz to 12,75 GHz (which, if below FR and grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group).
PCS 1 900: A maximum of twelve failures in the band 1 910 MHz to 2 010 MHz (which, if grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group).
A maximum of 24 in the combined bands 100 kHz to 1 910 MHz and 2 010 MHz to 12,75 GHz (which, if below FR and grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group).
If the number of failures does not exceed the maximum allowed figures stated above, the test of 14.18.5a.4 is repeated at the frequencies at which the failures occurred. The level of the unwanted signal is set to 70 dBuVemf( ) and the performance requirement is once again that stated above.
The number of Error Events recorded in this test shall not exceed the test limit error rate values given above, when using either the accelerated BLER method or the maximum number of samples.
No failures are allowed at this lower unwanted signal level.
14.18.5a.5.1 Statistical testing of blocking and spurious response performance with early decision
For more information on statistical testing of blocking and spurious response performance, especially the definition of limit lines, refer to Annex 7.
Wrong decision risk F for one single error rate test:
Fpass ≠ Ffail As the blocking test case comprises of many BLER tests the wrong decision risk for a fail decision of one single error rate test must be smaller than the wrong decision risk for a pass decision to avoid an increased probability of an erroneous fail decision.
Fpass = 0.2%
Ffail = 0.02%
Wrong decision probability D per test step:
Dpass ≠ Dfail
Dpass = 0.008%
Dfail = 0.0008%
Parameters for limit lines:
1. Dpass = 0.008% wrong decision probability per test step for early pass decision.
Dfail = 0.0008% wrong decision probability per test step for early fail decision.
2. M = 1.5 bad DUT factor
3. ne number of (error) events.
4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns.
Limit checking
For an early decision a minimum number of measured (error) events are necessary.
For an early pass decision ne ≥ 1
For an early fail decision ne ≥ 8
When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made.
The statistical testing of the conformance requirement is done using table 14.18.5a‑1.
