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 (e.g. band 1, 3, 7 and 8)
is shared between systems of the IMT-2000 family (for band 3 and 8 also GSM) or systems having compatible
characteristics.
4.2.1 Introduction
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive) for IMT-2000 Base
Station equipment (BS) seven essential parameters in addition to those in EN 301 908-1 [1] have been identified.
Table 4.2.1-1 provides a cross reference between these seven essential parameters and the corresponding nine technical
requirements for equipment within the scope of the present document.

4.2.9 Receiver intermodulation characteristics
Receiver adjacent channel selectivity 4.2.10 Adjacent Channel Selectivity (ACS) and
narrow-band blocking
4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
4.2.2.1 Definition
Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions (ITU-R Recommendation
SM.329-10 [4]). 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. 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. The out-of-band
emissions requirement for the BS transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio
(ACLR) and Operating band unwanted emissions.
The Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined for all unwanted emissions from 10 MHz below the lowest
frequency of the downlink operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the downlink operating band
(see table 1-1).

4.2.2.3 Conformance
Conformance tests described in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out.
4.2.3 Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR)
4.2.3.1 Definition
Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) is the ratio of the filtered mean power centered on the assigned
channel frequency to the filtered mean power centered on an adjacent channel frequency.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier). It applies for
all transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer's specification. For a multi-carrier BS, the requirement applies for
the adjacent channel frequencies below the lowest carrier frequency transmitted by the BS and above the highest carrier
frequency transmitted by the BS for each supported multi-carrier transmission configuration.
4.2.3.2 Limits
The ACLR is defined with a square filter of bandwidth equal to the transmission bandwidth configuration of the
transmitted signal (BW ) centered on the assigned channel frequency and a filter centered on the adjacent channel

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.
ETSI
12 Final draft ETSI EN 301 908-14 V4.1.2 (2009-12)
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 (e.g. band 1, 3, 7 and 8)
is shared between systems of the IMT-2000 family (for band 3 and 8 also GSM) or systems having compatible
characteristics.
4.2.1 Introduction
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive) for IMT-2000 Base
Stations (BS), seven essential parameters in addition to those in EN 301 908-1 [1] have been identified. Table 4.2.1-1
provides a cross reference between these seven essential parameters and the corresponding nine technical requirements
for equipment within the scope of the present document.

4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
4.2.2.1 Definition
Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions (ITU-R Recommendation
SM.329-10 [4]). 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. The out-of-band emissions
requirement for the BS transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and
Operating band unwanted emissions.
The Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the downlink
operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the downlink operating band (see table 1-1).
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all
transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer's specification.
4.2.2.2 Limit
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
• Δf is the separation between the channel edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB 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_offset is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the downlink operating band.
max
• Δf is equal to f_offset minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

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.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 301 908-14 V4.2.1 (2010-03)
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 (e.g. band 1, 3, 7 and 8)
is shared between systems of the IMT-2000 family (for band 3 and 8 also GSM) or systems having compatible
characteristics.
4.2.1 Introduction
To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive) for IMT-2000 Base
Stations (BS), seven essential parameters in addition to those in EN 301 908-1 [1] have been identified. Table 4.2.1-1
provides a cross reference between these seven essential parameters and the corresponding nine technical requirements
for equipment within the scope of the present document.

4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
4.2.2.1 Definition
Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions (ITU-R Recommendation
SM.329-10 [4]). 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. The out-of-band emissions
requirement for the BS transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and
Operating band unwanted emissions.
The Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the downlink
operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the downlink operating band (see table 1-1).
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all
transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer's specification.
4.2.2.2 Limit
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
• Δf is the separation between the channel edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB 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_offset is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the downlink operating band.
max
• Δf is equal to f_offset minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

ETSI ETSI EN 301 908-14 V4.2.1 (2010-03)12 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 (e.g. band 1, 3, 7 and 8) is shared between systems of the IMT-2000 family (for band 3 and 8 also GSM) or systems having compatible characteristics. 4.2.1 Introduction To meet the essential requirement under article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive) for IMT-2000 Base Stations (BS), seven essential parameters in addition to those in EN 301 908-1 [1] have been identified. Table 4.2.1-1 provides a cross reference between these seven essential parameters and the corresponding nine technical requirements for equipment within the scope of the present document.

4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions 4.2.2.1 Definition Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions (ITU-R Recommendation SM.329-10 [4]). 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. The out-of-band emissions requirement for the BS transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and Operating band unwanted emissions. The Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the downlink operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the downlink operating band (see table 1-1). The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all transmission modes foreseen by the manufacturer's specification. 4.2.2.2 Limit Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where: • Δf is the separation between the channel edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB 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.

4.2.2.3 Conformance Conformance tests described in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out. 4.2.3 Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) 4.2.3.1 Definition Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions (ITU-R Recommendation SM.329-10 [4]). 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. The out-of-band emissions requirement for the BS transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and Operating band unwanted emissions. Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) is the ratio of the filtered mean power centered on the assigned channel frequency to the filtered mean power centered on an adjacent channel frequency. The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter consi
