4 Technical requirements specifications
4.1 Environmental profile
The technical requirements of the present document apply under the environmental profile for operation of the
equipment, which shall be declared by the supplier. The equipment shall comply with all the technical requirements of
the present document at all times when operating within the boundary limits of the declared operational environmental
profile.
For guidance on how a supplier can declare the environmental profile see annex C.
4.2 Conformance requirements
The requirements in the present document are based on the assumption that the operating band is shared between
systems of the IMT-2000 family or systems having compatible characteristics.
4.2.1 Introduction
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] for IMT-2000 Repeater equipment five
essential parameters in addition to those in part 1 have been identified. Table 2 provides a cross reference between these
five essential parameters and the corresponding six technical requirements for equipment within the scope of the present
document.
Table 2: Cross references
Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements
Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Spectrum emissions mask
Conducted spurious emissions from the antenna connector 4.2.3 Spurious emissions
Accuracy of maximum output power 4.2.4 Maximum output power
Receiver immunity 4.2.5 Input intermodulation
4.2.6 Out-of-band gain
Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.7 Output intermodulation

The supplier shall declare operating band(s) for the Repeater. The technical requirements apply for the declared
operating band(s) as outlined for each requirement. For a Repeater supporting more than one operating band,
conformance testing for each technical requirement in clause 5 shall be performed independently for each operating
band.
The technical requirements also apply to Repeater configurations described in annex B.
4.2.2 Spectrum emissions mask
4.2.2.1 Definition
Out-of-band emissions are unwanted emissions immediately outside the channel bandwidth resulting from the
modulation process and non-linearity in the transmitter but excluding spurious emissions. This out-of-band emission
limit is specified in terms of a spectrum emission mask for the transmitter.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 301 908-12 V3.1.1 (2008-04)
4.2.2.2 Limits
The requirement shall be met by a Repeater's RF-signal output at maximum gain in the pass band of the Repeater, at
levels that produce the maximum rated output power per channel, configured in accordance with the manufacturer's
specification. Emissions shall not exceed the maximum level specified in tables 3 and 4 for the appropriate Repeater
maximum output power.
If the pass band corresponds to two or more consecutive nominal carriers, the requirement shall be met with any
combination of two CDMA modulated signals of equal power in the Repeaters pass band.

-27 dBm/30 kHz; 28 dBm ≤ Pout < 33 dBm
-55 dBc/30 kHz; Pout < 28 dBm
NOTE: All frequencies in the measurement bandwidth shall satisfy the restrictions on | ∆f| where ∆f = centre
frequency - closer measurement edge frequency (f). The emissions requirements shall apply for all
values of ∆f regardless of whether the measurement frequency falls inside or outside of the band or
block edge. Compliance with the -46 dBm/6,25 kHz limit is based on the use of measurement
instrumentation such that the reading taken with any resolution bandwidth setting should be adjusted
to indicate spectral power in a 6,25 kHz segment. For multiple-carrier testing, ∆f is defined for positive
∆f as the centre frequency of the highest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f) and for
negative ∆f as the centre frequency of the lowest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f).

frequency - closer measurement edge frequency (f). The emissions requirements shall apply for all
values of ∆f regardless of whether the measurement frequency falls inside or outside of the band or
block edge. For multiple-carrier testing, ∆f is defined for positive ∆f as the centre frequency of the
highest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f) and for negative ∆f as the centre frequency of
the lowest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f).

Spurious emissions are emissions which are caused by unwanted transmitter effects such as harmonics emission,
parasitic emission, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out-of-band emissions.
This is measured at the Repeater output port.
The requirements of clause 4.2.3.2 shall apply whatever the type of Repeater considered (one or several pass bands). It
applies for all configurations foreseen by the manufacturer's specification.
4.2.3.2 Limits
4.2.3.2.1 Spurious emissions
The mean spurious emissions levels shall comply with the applicable band class limits contained in tables 5 to 8A for
every specified test.
If the pass band corresponds to two or more consecutive nominal carriers, the requirement shall be met with any
combination of two CDMA modulated signals of equal power in the Repeaters pass band.
When transmitting in Band Class 9, the mean spurious emissions shall be less than all of the limits specified in table 5
for both the Forward and Reverse signal paths.

4,00 MHz to 6,40 MHz Yes -36 dBm/1 kHz 30 MHz < f < 1 GHz

6,40 MHz to 16 MHz Yes -36 dBm/10 kHz 30 MHz < f < 1 GHz

> 16 MHz Yes -36 dBm/100 kHz 30 MHz < f < 1 GHz

NOTE: All frequencies in the measurement bandwidth shall satisfy the restrictions on | ∆f| where ∆f = centre
frequency - closer measurement edge frequency (f). The emissions requirements shall apply for all
values of ∆f regardless of whether the measurement frequency falls inside or outside of the band or
block edge. Compliance with the -46 dBm/6,25 kHz limit is based on the use of measurement
instrumentation such that the reading taken with any resolution bandwidth setting should be adjusted
to indicate spectral power in a 6,25 kHz segment. For multiple-carrier testing, ∆f is defined for positive
∆f as the centre frequency of the highest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f) and for
negative ∆f as the centre frequency of the lowest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f).

When transmitting in Band Class 6, 8 or 13 the mean spurious emissions shall be less than all of the limits specified in
table 6 for both the Forward and Reverse signal paths.

highest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f) and for negative ∆f as the centre frequency of
the lowest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f).

Mean spurious emissions shall also be less than the limits specified in table 7 for the forward link. For the reverse link
spurious emissions shall also be less than the limits specified in tables 8 and 8A .

4 Technical requirements specifications
4.1 Environmental profile
The technical requirements of the present document apply under the environmental profile for operation of the
equipment, which shall be declared by the supplier. The equipment shall comply with all the technical requirements of
the present document at all times when operating within the boundary limits of the declared operational environmental
profile.
For guidance on how a supplier can declare the environmental profile see annex C.
4.2 Conformance requirements
The requirements in the present document are based on the assumption that the operating band is shared between
systems of the IMT-2000 family or systems having compatible characteristics.
4.2.1 Introduction
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [1] for IMT-2000 Repeater equipment five
essential parameters in addition to those in part 1 have been identified. Table 2 provides a cross reference between these
five essential parameters and the corresponding six technical requirements for equipment within the scope of the present
document.
Table 2: Cross references
Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements
Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Spectrum emissions mask
Conducted spurious emissions from the antenna connector 4.2.3 Spurious emissions
Accuracy of maximum output power 4.2.4 Maximum output power
Receiver immunity 4.2.5 Input intermodulation
4.2.6 Out-of-band gain
Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.7 Output intermodulation

The supplier shall declare operating band(s) for the Repeater. The technical requirements apply for the declared
operating band(s) as outlined for each requirement. For a Repeater supporting more than one operating band,
conformance testing for each technical requirement in clause 5 shall be performed independently for each operating
band.
The technical requirements also apply to Repeater configurations described in annex B.
4.2.2 Spectrum emissions mask
4.2.2.1 Definition
Out-of-band emissions are unwanted emissions immediately outside the channel bandwidth resulting from the
modulation process and non-linearity in the transmitter but excluding spurious emissions. This out-of-band emission
limit is specified in terms of a spectrum emission mask for the transmitter.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 301 908-12 V3.1.1 (2008-04)
4.2.2.2 Limits
The requirement shall be met by a Repeater's RF-signal output at maximum gain in the pass band of the Repeater, at
levels that produce the maximum rated output power per channel, configured in accordance with the manufacturer's
specification. Emissions shall not exceed the maximum level specified in tables 3 and 4 for the appropriate Repeater
maximum output power.
If the pass band corresponds to two or more consecutive nominal carriers, the requirement shall be met with any
combination of two CDMA modulated signals of equal power in the Repeaters pass band.

frequency - closer measurement edge frequency (f). The emissions requirements shall apply for all
values of ∆f regardless of whether the measurement frequency falls inside or outside of the band or
block edge. Compliance with the -46 dBm/6,25 kHz limit is based on the use of measurement
instrumentation such that the reading taken with any resolution bandwidth setting should be adjusted
to indicate spectral power in a 6,25 kHz segment. For multiple-carrier testing, ∆f is defined for positive
∆f as the centre frequency of the highest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f) and for
negative ∆f as the centre frequency of the lowest carrier - closer measurement edge frequency (f).
