HRPD access terminals.
pass band: frequency range that the Repeater operates in with operational configuration
NOTE: This frequency range can correspond to one or several consecutive nominal channels. If they are not
consecutive each subset of channels is considered as an individual pass band. The Repeater can have one

NOTE: A repeater can be a device that receives, amplifies and transmits one or more radiated or conducted
CDMA channel(s) both in the down-link direction (from the Base Station to the mobile area) and in the
up-link direction (from the mobile to the Base Station).
Resolution BandWidth (RBW): measured in Hz and represents the frequency over which power is integrated in a
spectrum analyser to display the amplitude at the centre of the integration frequency range
reverse CDMA channel: CDMA channel from the mobile station to the Base Station
NOTE: From the Base Station's perspective, the reverse CDMA channel is the sum of all mobile station
transmissions on a CDMA frequency assignment.
RF carrier: direct-sequence spread RF channel
NOTE: For the forward CDMA channel, the number of RF carriers is 1 for spreading rate 1 and 3 for spreading
rate 3; for the reverse CDMA channel, there is one RF carrier.

cdma2000 system, or operation in cdma2000 High Rate Packet Data Systems as defined in TIA-856 [i.6],
referred to herein as operation in Type 2 cdma2000 systems. Depending upon the context, the term Base
Station may refer to a cell, a sector within a cell, an MSC, and access network or other part of the wireless
system. See also MSC.
CDMA channel: set of channels transmitted from the Base Station and the mobile stations on a given frequency
