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
4.2.1 Introduction
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.
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] for IMT Repeater equipment, a set of
essential parameters in addition to those in ETSI EN 301 908-1 [i.3] have been identified. Table 4.2.1-1 provides a cross
reference between these essential parameters and the corresponding technical requirements for equipment within the
scope of the present document.

NOTE: Some of the essential parameters of the ETSI EG 203 336 [i.2] are not included into the present document
since those requirements are not applicable for repeater equipment.
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.
ETSI
11 ETSI EN 301 908-12 V7.1.1 (2016-05)
4.2.2 Spectrum emissions mask
4.2.2.1 Definition
Out-of-band emissions are 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.
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 4.2.2.2-1 and 4.2.2.2-2 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.

For |∆f| Within the Range Applies to Multiple Emission limit
Carriers
750 kHz to 1,98 MHz No -45 dBc/30 kHz
1,98 MHz to 4,00 MHz No -60 dBc/30 kHz; Pout ≥ 33 dBm
-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).

4.2.3 Spurious emissions
4.2.3.1 Definition
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 4.2.3.2.1-1 to
4.2.3.2.1-5 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 4.2.3.2.1-1 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 4.2.3.2.1-2 for both the Forward and Reverse signal paths.

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. 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).

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
4.2.1 Introduction
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.
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1] for IMT Repeater equipment, a set of
essential parameters in addition to those in ETSI EN 301 908-1 [i.3] have been identified. Table 4.2.1-1 provides a cross
reference between these essential parameters and the corresponding technical requirements for equipment within the
scope of the present document.

NOTE: Some of the essential parameters of the ETSI EG 203 336 [i.2] are not included into the present document
since those requirements are not applicable for repeater equipment.
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 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.
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 4.2.2.2-1 and 4.2.2.2-2 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.

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).

4.2.3 Spurious emissions
4.2.3.1 Definition
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 4.2.3.2.1-1 to
4.2.3.2.1-5 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 4.2.3.2.1-1 for both the Forward and Reverse signal paths.
