Definitions, symbols and abbreviations

Definitions

For the purposes of the present document, the following definitions apply:

Power Spectral Density: The units of Power Spectral Density (PSD) are extensively used in this document. PSD is a function of power versus frequency and when integrated across a given bandwidth, the function represents the mean power in such a bandwidth. When the mean power is normalised to (divided by) the chip-rate it represents the mean energy per chip. Some signals are directly defined in terms of energy per chip, (DPCH_Ec, Ec, OCNS_Ec and S-CCPCH_Ec) and others defined in terms of PSD (Io, Ioc, Ior and ?or). There also exist quantities that are a ratio of energy per chip to PSD (DPCH_Ec/Ior, Ec/Ior etc.). This is the common practice of relating energy magnitudes in communication systems.

It can be seen that if both energy magnitudes in the ratio are divided by time, the ratio is converted from an energy ratio to a power ratio, which is more useful from a measurement point of view. It follows that an energy per chip of X

dBm/3.84 MHz can be expressed as a mean power per chip of X dBm. Similarly, a signal PSD of Y dBm/3.84 MHz can be expressed as a signal power of Y dBm.

Maximum Output Power: This is a measure of the maximum power the UE can transmit (i.e. the actual power as would be measured assuming no measurement error) in a bandwidth of at least (1+ ?? times the chip rate of the radio access mode. The period of measurement shall be at least one timeslot.

Mean power: When applied to a W-CDMA modulated signal this is the power (transmitted or received) in a bandwidth of at least (1+ ?? times the chip rate of the radio access mode. The period of measurement shall be at least one timeslot unless otherwise stated.

Nominal Maximum Output Power: This is the nominal power defined by the UE power class.

RRC filtered mean power: The mean power as measured through a root raised cosine filter with roll-off factor ?? and a bandwidth equal to the chip rate of the radio access mode.

NOTE 1: The RRC filtered mean power of a perfectly modulated W-CDMA signal is 0.246 dB lower than the

mean power of the same signal. NOTE 2: The roll-off factor ? is defined in section 6.8.1.

General

Relationship between Minimum Requirements and Test

Requirements

The Minimum Requirements given in this specification make no allowance for measurement uncertainty. The test specification 34.121 Annex F defines Test Tolerances. These Test Tolerances are individually calculated for each test. The Test Tolerances are used to relax the Minimum Requirements in this specification to create Test Requirements. The measurement results returned by the test system are compared - without any modification - against the Test Requirements as defined by the shared risk principle.

The Shared Risk principle is defined in ETR 273 Part 1 sub-part 2 section 6.5.

4.2 Power Classes

For UE power classes 1 and 2, a number of RF parameter are not specified. It is intended that these are part of a later release.

4.3 Control and monitoring functions

This requirement verifies that the control and monitoring functions of the UE prevent it from transmitting if no acceptable cell can be found by the UE.

4.3.1 Minimum requirement

The power of the UE, as measured with a thermal detector, shall not exceed -30dBm if no acceptable cell can be found by the UE.

4.4 RF requirements in later releases

The standardisation of new frequency bands may be independent of a release. However, in order to implement a UE that conforms to a particular release but supports a band of operation that is specified in a later release, it is necessary to specify some extra requirements. TS 25.307 [9] specifies requirements on UEs supporting a frequency band that is independent of release. NOTE:

For terminals conforming to the 3GPP release of the present document, some RF requirements in later releases may be mandatory independent of whether the UE supports the bands specified in later releases or not. The set of requirements from later releases that is also mandatory for UEs conforming to the 3GPP release of the present document is determined by regional regulation.

Channel arrangement

Channel spacing

The nominal channel spacing is 5 MHz, but this can be adjusted to optimise performance in a particular deployment scenario.

5.4.2 Channel raster

The channel raster is 200 kHz, which means that the centre frequency must be an integer multiple of 200 kHz.

5.4.3 Channel number

The carrier frequency is designated by the UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number (UARFCN). The values are defined as follows:
