ETSI
11 Draft ETSI EN 301 908-15 V4.1.1 (2009-04)
4.2 Conformance requirements
The requirements in the present document are based on the assumption that the operating band (e.g. bands 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
Repeaters five 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 five essential parameters and the corresponding seven technical requirements
for equipment within the scope of the present document.

Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements
Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
Conducted spurious emissions from the antenna connector 4.2.3 Spurious emissions
Accuracy of maximum output power 4.2.4 Maximum output power
4.2.5 Input intermodulation
Receiver immunity 4.2.6 Out of band gain
4.2.7 Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio
Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.8 Output intermodulation
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 pass band 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 repeater is specified both in terms operating band unwanted emissions and
protection of the BS receiver in the uplink operating band. The operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted
emissions in the repeater operating band plus the frequency ranges 10 MHz above and 10 MHz below that band.
Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range are limited by a spurious emissions requirement.
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.
• BW is the measurement bandwidth.
Meas
• BW is the bandwidth of the repeater input signal filling the repeater pass band.
Signal
• 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 repeater operating band.
max
• Δf is equal to f_offset minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
max max
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS).
ETSI
12 Draft ETSI EN 301 908-15 V4.1.1 (2009-04)
This requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain, and with the following input
signals:
• without E-UTRA input signal;
• with E-UTRA input signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated power
output per channel;
• with 10 dB increased E-UTRA input signals in all channels in the pass band, compared to the input level
producing the maximum rated output power.
4.2.2.2.1 General operating band unwanted emissions
For E-UTRA FDD repeater operating in bands 8 emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in
tables 4.2.2.2.1-1 and 4.2.2.2.1-2. The measurements shall apply to both paths uplink and downlink of the Repeater.

4.2.2.2.2 Protection of the BS receiver in the operating band
This requirement shall be applied for the protection of E-UTRA FDD BS receiver in geographic areas in which
E-UTRA-FDD Repeater and E-UTRA-FDD BS are deployed.
The requirement applies at frequencies that are more than 10 MHz below or more than 10 MHz above the repeater pass
band.
This requirement applies to the uplink of the repeater, at maximum gain.
The power of any operating band unwanted emission shall not exceed the limits in table 4.2.2.2.2-1.

NOTE 1: These requirements in table 4.2.2.2.2-1 for the uplink direction of the Repeater
reflect what can be achieved with present state of the art technology and are
based on a coupling loss of 73 dB between a Repeater and an E-UTRA FDD
BS receiver.
NOTE 2: The requirements shall be reconsidered when the state of the art technology
progresses.

4.2.2.3 Conformance
Conformance tests described in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out.
4.2.3 Spurious emissions
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 unwanted emissions immediately outside the pass band 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 spurious emission limits apply from 9 kHz to 12,75 GHz, excluding the frequency range from 10 MHz below the
lowest frequency of the repeaters operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the repeaters operating
band.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of repeater considered (one or several pass bands). It applies for all
configurations foreseen by the manufacturer's specification. The measurements shall apply to both paths uplink and
downlink of the Repeater.
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS).
4.2.3.2 Limit
The requirements apply to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain, and with the following input
signals:
• without E-UTRA input signal;
• with E-UTRA input signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated power
output per channel;
• with 10 dB increased E-UTRA input signals in all channels in the pass band, compared to the input level
producing the maximum rated output power.
4.2.3.2.1 Spurious emissions
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed the limits in table 4.2.3.2.1-1.

4.2.3.2.2 Co-existence with other systems in the same geographical area
These requirements may be applied for the protection of UE, MS and/or BS operating in other frequency bands in the
same geographical area. The requirements may apply in geographic areas in which both E-UTRA-FDD Repeater and a
system operating in another frequency band than the E-UTRA operating band are deployed. The system operating in the
other frequency band may be GSM900, DCS1800, UTRA FDD/TDD and/or E-UTRA.

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. bands 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
Repeaters five 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 five essential parameters and the corresponding seven technical requirements
for equipment within the scope of the present document.
Table 4.2.1-1: Cross references
Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements
Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
Conducted spurious emissions from the antenna connector 4.2.3 Spurious emissions
Accuracy of maximum output power 4.2.4 Maximum output power
4.2.5 Input intermodulation
Receiver immunity 4.2.6 Out of band gain
4.2.7 Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio
Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.8 Output intermodulation
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 pass band 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 repeater is specified both in terms operating band unwanted emissions and
protection of the BS receiver in the uplink operating band. The operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted
emissions in the repeater operating band plus the frequency ranges 10 MHz above and 10 MHz below that band.
Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range are limited by a spurious emissions requirement.
ETSI
12 Final draft ETSI EN 301 908-15 V4.1.2 (2009-12)
4.2.2.2 Limit
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
• Δf is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the
measuring filter closest to the carrier frequency.
• Nominal passband edge is the lowest and highest frequency of the pass band of the repeater.
• BW is the measurement bandwidth.
Meas
• BW is the bandwidth of the repeaters pass band.
Pass band
• f_offset is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
• f_offset is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the repeater operating band.
max
• Δf is equal to f_offset minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
max max
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS).
This requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain, and with the following input
signals:
• without E-UTRA input signal;
• with E-UTRA input signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated power
output per channel;
• with 10 dB increased E-UTRA input signals in all channels in the pass band, compared to the input level
producing the maximum rated output power.
4.2.2.2.1 General operating band unwanted emissions
For E-UTRA FDD repeater operating in bands 3 or 8 emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in
tables 4.2.2.2.1-1 and 4.2.2.2.1-2. The measurements shall apply to both paths uplink and downlink of the Repeater.

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. bands 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
Repeaters five 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 five essential parameters and the corresponding seven technical requirements
for equipment within the scope of the present document.
Table 4.2.1-1: Cross references
Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements
Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions
Conducted spurious emissions from the antenna connector 4.2.3 Spurious emissions
Accuracy of maximum output power 4.2.4 Maximum output power
4.2.5 Input intermodulation
Receiver immunity 4.2.6 Out of band gain
4.2.7 Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio
Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.8 Output intermodulation
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 pass band 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 repeater is specified both in terms operating band unwanted emissions and
protection of the BS receiver in the uplink operating band. The operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted
emissions in the repeater operating band plus the frequency ranges 10 MHz above and 10 MHz below that band.
Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range are limited by a spurious emissions requirement.
ETSI
12 ETSI EN 301 908-15 V4.2.1 (2010-03)
4.2.2.2 Limit
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
• Δf is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the
measuring filter closest to the carrier frequency.
• Nominal passband edge is the lowest and highest frequency of the pass band of the repeater.
• BW is the measurement bandwidth.
Meas
• BW is the bandwidth of the repeaters pass band.
Pass band
• f_offset is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
• f_offset is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the repeater operating band.
max
• Δf is equal to f_offset minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
max max
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS).
This requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain, and with the following input
signals:
• without E-UTRA input signal;
• with E-UTRA input signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated power
output per channel;
• with 10 dB increased E-UTRA input signals in all channels in the pass band, compared to the input level
producing the maximum rated output power.
4.2.2.2.1 General operating band unwanted emissions
For E-UTRA FDD repeater operating in bands 3 or 8 emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in
tables 4.2.2.2.1-1 and 4.2.2.2.1-2. The measurements shall apply to both paths uplink and downlink of the Repeater.

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. bands 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 Repeaters five 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 five essential parameters and the corresponding seven technical requirements for equipment within the scope of the present document. Table 4.2.1-1: Cross references Essential parameter Corresponding technical requirements Spectrum emissions mask 4.2.2 Operating band unwanted emissions 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 4.2.7 Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio Intermodulation attenuation of the output 4.2.8 Output intermodulation
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 pass band 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 repeater is specified both in terms operating band unwanted emissions and protection of the BS receiver in the uplink operating band. The operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted emissions in the repeater operating band plus the frequency ranges 10 MHz above and 10 MHz below that band. Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range are limited by a spurious emissions requirement. SIST EN 301 908-15 V4.2.1:2010
ETSI ETSI EN 301 908-15 V4.2.1 (2010-03)12 4.2.2.2 Limit Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where: • Δf is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter closest to the carrier frequency. • Nominal passband edge is the lowest and highest frequency of the pass band of the repeater. • BWMeas is the measurement bandwidth. • BWPass band is the bandwidth of the repeaters pass band. • f_offset is the separation between the nominal pass band edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter. • f_offsetmax is the offset to the frequency 10 MHz outside the repeater operating band. • Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter. Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS). This requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain, and with the following input signals: • without E-UTRA input signal; • with E-UTRA input signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that produce the maximum rated power output per channel; • with 10 dB increased E-UTRA input signals in all channels in the pass band, compared to the input level producing the maximum rated output power. 4.2.2.2.1 General operating band unwanted emissions For E-UTRA FDD repeater operating in bands 3 or 8 emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in tables 4.2.2.2.1-1 and 4.2.2.2.1-2. The measurements shall apply to both paths uplink and downlink of the Repeater. Table 4.2.2.2.1-1: General operating band unwanted emission limits for repeater pass band

4.2.2.2.2 Protection of the BS receiver in the operating band This requirement shall be applied for the protection of E-UTRA FDD BS receiver in geographic areas in which E-UTRA-FDD Repeater and E-UTRA-FDD BS are deployed. The requirement applies at frequencies that are more than 10 MHz below or more than 10 MHz above the repeater pass band. This requirement applies to the uplink of the repeater, at maximum gain. The power of any operating band unwanted emission shall not exceed the limits in table 4.2.2.2.2-1. Table 4.2.2.2.2-1: Uplink operating band unwanted emissions limits for protection of the BS receiver Maximum level Measurement bandwidth Note -53 dBm 100 kHz
NOTE 1: These requirements in table 4.2.2.2.2-1 for the uplink direction of the Repeater reflect what can be achieved with present state of the art technology and are based on a coupling loss of 73 dB between a Repeater and an E-UTRA FDD BS receiver. NOTE 2: The requirements shall be reconsidered when the state of the art technology progresses.
4.2.2.3 Conformance Conformance tests described in clause 5.3.1 shall be carried out. 4.2.3 Spurious emissions 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 pass band 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 spurious emission limits apply f
