The present document covers requirements for E-UTRA Base Stations for 3GPP Release 8, 9 and 10. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2, which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org. 2 References References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.

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 (see table 1-1) is shared between systems of the IMT-2000 family (for band 3 and 8 also GSM) or systems having compatible characteristics.
