term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905 [1].
Carrier: The modulated waveform conveying the E-UTRA or UTRA physical channels
Channel bandwidth: The RF bandwidth supporting a single E-UTRA RF carrier with the transmission bandwidth
configured in the uplink or downlink of a cell. The channel bandwidth is measured in MHz and is used as a reference
for transmitter and receiver RF requirements.
Channel edge: The lowest and highest frequency of the E-UTRA carrier, separated by the channel bandwidth.
Donor coupling loss: is the coupling loss between the repeater and the donor base station.
Downlink: Signal path where base station transmits and mobile receives.
Downlink operating band: The part of the operating band designated for downlink.
Maximum output power, Pmax: This is the mean power level per carrier measured at the antenna connector of the
Repeater in specified reference condition.
Operating band: A frequency range in which E-UTRA operates (paired or unpaired), that is defined with a specific set
of technical requirements.
ETSI
NOTE1: The operating band(s) for an E-UTRA Repeater is declared by the manufacturer according to the
designations in clause 5.5 table 5.5-1.

Output power, Pout: This is the mean power of one carrier at maximum repeater gain delivered to a load with
resistance equal to the nominal load impedance of the transmitter.
Pass band: The repeater can have one or several pass bands. The pass band is the frequency range that the repeater
operates in with operational configuration. This frequency range can correspond to one or several consecutive nominal
channels. If they are not consecutive each subset of channels shall be considered as an individual pass band.
Rated output power: Rated output power of the repeater is the mean power level per carrier that the manufacturer has
declared to be available at the antenna connector.

General
4.1
The Minimum Requirements given in this specification make no allowance for measurement uncertainty. The test
specification TS 36.143 [4] Annex B 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 ITU-R M.1545 [3].

Channel spacing
The spacing between carriers will depend on the deployment scenario, the size of the frequency block available and the
channel bandwidths. The nominal channel spacing between two adjacent E-UTRA carriers is defined as following:
Nominal Channel spacing = (BWChannel(1) + BWChannel(2))/2
where BWChannel(1) and BWChannel(2) are the channel bandwidths of the two respective E-UTRA carriers. The channel
spacing can be adjusted to optimize performance in a particular deployment scenario.
5.7.2
Channel raster
The channel raster is 100 kHz for all bands, which means that the carrier centre frequency must be an integer multiple
of 100 kHz.
5.7.3
The carrier frequency in the uplink and downlink is designated by the E-UTRA Absolute Radio Frequency Channel
Number (EARFCN) in the range 0 - 65535. The relation between EARFCN and the carrier frequency in MHz for the
downlink is given by the following equation, where FDL_low and NOffs-DL are given in table 5.7.3-1 and NDL is the
downlink EARFCN.
FDL = FDL_low + 0.1(NDL NOffs-DL)
The relation between EARFCN and the carrier frequency in MHz for the uplink is given by the following equation
where FUL_low and NOffs-UL are given in table 5.7.3-1 and NUL is the uplink EARFCN.
FUL = FUL_low + 0.1(NUL NOffs-UL)

Output power
Output power, Pout, of the repeater is the mean power of one carrier at maximum repeater gain delivered to a load with
resistance equal to the nominal load impedance of the transmitter.
Maximum output power, Pmax, of the repeater is the mean power level per carrier measured at the antenna connector in
a specified reference condition.
6.1
Minimum requirement
The requirements shall apply at maximum gain, with E-UTRA signals in the pass band of the repeater, at levels that
produce the maximum rated output power per channel.
When the power of all signals is increased by 10 dB, compared to the power level that produce the maximum rated
output power, the requirements shall still be met.
In normal conditions, the Repeater maximum output power shall remain within limits specified in Table 6.1-1 relative
to the manufacturer's rated output power.
Table 6.1-1: Repeater output power; normal conditions
Limit
+2 dB and -2 dB
+3 dB and -3 dB
In extreme conditions, the Repeater maximum output power shall remain within the limits specified in Table 6.1-2
relative to the manufacturer's rated output power.
Table 6.1-2: Repeater output power; extreme conditions
Limit
+2,5 dB and -2,5 dB
+4 dB and -4 dB
In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the
ranges of conditions defined as normal.
ETSI

Frequency stability
Frequency stability is the ability to maintain the same frequency on the output signal with respect to the input signal.
7.1
Minimum requirement
The frequency deviation of the output signal with respect to the input signal shall be no more than 0,001 PPM.
Out of band gain refers to the gain of the repeater outside the pass band.
8.1
Minimum requirement
The intended use of a repeater in a system is to amplify the in band signals and not to amplify the out of band emission
of the donor base station.
In the intended application of the repeater, the out of band gain is less than the donor coupling loss.
The repeater minimum donor coupling loss shall be declared by the manufacturer. This is the minimum required
attenuation between the donor BS and the repeater for proper repeater operation.
The gain outside the pass band shall not exceed the maximum level specified in table 8.1-1, where:
-
f_offset_PB is the distance from the channel edge frequency of the first or last channel within the pass band.

Unwanted emissions
Unwanted emissions consist of out-of-band emissions and spurious emissions [2]. 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.
9.1
The Operating band unwanted emission limits are defined from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the repeater
operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest frequency of the repeater operating band.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of repeater considered (single carrier or multi-carrier) and for all
configurations foreseen by the manufacturer's specification.
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
-
f is the separation between the channel edge frequency and the nominal -3dB point of the measuring filter
closest to the carrier frequency.
BWSignal is the bandwidth of the repeater input signal filling the repeater pass band.
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 repeater operating band.
fmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

NOTE 1: As a general rule for the requirements in Clause 9.1.3, the resolution bandwidth of the measuring
equipment should be equal to the measurement bandwidth. However, to improve measurement accuracy,
sensitivity and efficiency, the resolution bandwidth may be smaller than the measurement bandwidth.
When the resolution bandwidth is smaller than the measurement bandwidth, the result shall be integrated
over the measurement bandwidth in order to obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement
bandwidth.
NOTE 2: For signal bandwidths between the values given in Table's 9.1.3-1 and 9.1.3-2, the requirements can be
calculated by linearly interpolating between the requirements closest to the wanted signal bandwidth.

Spurious 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. Exceptions are the requirement in Table 9.2.2.1-2 and 9.2.2.1-3 that apply also closer than 10 MHz from 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.
Unless otherwise stated, all requirements are measured as mean power (RMS).

NOTE 1: As defined in the scope for spurious emissions in this clause, the co-location requirements in
Table 9.2.3.1-1 do not apply for the 10 MHz frequency range immediately outside the repeaters operating
band frequency range of an operating band (see Table 5.5-1). This is also the case when the repeaters
operating band frequency range is adjacent to the frequency range of the co-location requirement in the
Table 9.2.3.1-1. The current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for colocation with other system on adjacent frequencies for 30dB Repeater-BS minimum coupling loss.
However, there are certain site-engineering solutions that can be used. These techniques are addressed in
TR 25.942 [5].
NOTE 2: The Table 9.2.3.1-1 assumes that two operating bands, where the corresponding eNode B transmit and
receive frequency ranges in Table 5.5-1 would be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical
area. For such a case of operation with overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical
area, special co-location requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.
NOTE 3: The requirements of -53dBm/100kHz in Table 9.2.3.1-1 for the up link 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 a UTRA TDD BS receiver.
NOTE 4: The requirements of -83dBm/100kHz in Table 9.2.3.1-1 for the up link direction of the Repeater reflect
what can be achieved with present state of the art technology and are based on a coupling loss of 43 dB
between a Repeater and a UTRA TDD BS receiver.
NOTE 5: The requirements of -53dBm/100kHz and -83dBm/100kHz in Table 9.2.3.1-1shall be reconsidered when
the state of the art technology progresses.

Input Intermodulation
The input intermodulation is a measure of the capability of the repeater to inhibit the generation of interference in the
pass band, in the presence of interfering signals on frequencies other than the pass band.
11.1
General requirement
The following requirement applies for interfering signals in the frequency bands defined in sub-clause 5.5, depending
on the repeaters pass band.
This requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain.
11.1.1
Minimum requirement
For the parameters specified in table 11.1.1-1, the power in the pass band shall not increase with more than 10 dB at the
output of the repeater as measured in the centre of the pass band, compared to the level obtained without interfering
signals applied.
The frequency separation between the two interfering signals shall be adjusted so that the 3rd order intermodulation
product is positioned in the centre of the pass band.
Table 11.1.1-1 specifies the parameters for two interfering signals, where:

E-UTRA FDD Repeater.
Unless otherwise stated this requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain.

NOTE 1: The co-location requirements in Table 11.2.1-1 do not apply when the repeaters pass band frequency
range is adjacent to the frequency range of the co-location requirement in the Table 11.2.1-1. The current
state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-location with other system on
adjacent frequencies for 30dB Repeater-BS minimum coupling loss. However, there are certain siteengineering solutions that can be used. These techniques are addressed in TR 25.942 [5].
NOTE 2: The Table 11.2.1-1 assumes that two operating bands, where the corresponding eNode B transmit and
receive frequency ranges in Table 5.5-1 would be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical
area. For such a case of operation with overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical
area, special co-location requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.
11.3
This additional input intermodulation requirement may be applied when GSM900, DCS1800, PCS1900, GSM850,
UTRA FDD, UTRA TDD and/or E-UTRA BS operating in another frequency band co-exist with an E-UTRA FDD
Repeater.
Unless otherwise stated this requirement applies to the uplink and downlink of the repeater, at maximum gain.
11.3.1
Minimum requirement
For the parameters specified in table 11.3.1-1, the power in the pass band shall not increase with more than 10 dB at the
output of the repeater as measured in the centre of the pass band, compared to the level obtained without interfering
signals applied.
The frequency separation between the two interfering signals shall be adjusted so that the lowest order intermodulation
product is positioned in the centre of the pass band.
NOTE 1: The lowest intermodulation products correspond to the 4th and 3rd order for the GSM 900 and DCS 1800
bands, respectively.

NOTE 1: The co-existence requirements in Table 11.3.1-1 do not apply when the repeaters pass band frequency
range is adjacent to the frequency range of the co-existence requirement in the Table 11.3.1-1. The
current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-existence.
NOTE 2: The Table 11.3.1-1 assumes that two operating bands, where the frequency ranges in Table 5.5-1 would
be overlapping, are not deployed in the same geographical area. For such a case of operation with
overlapping frequency arrangements in the same geographical area, special co-existence requirements
may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.

Output intermodulation
The output intermodulation requirement is a measure of the ability of the repeater to inhibit the generation of
intermodulation products signals created by the presence of an interfering signal reaching the repeater via the output
port.
The requirement shall apply to the downlink of the Repeater.
12.1
Minimum requirement
The output intermodulation level is the power of the intermodulation products when an interfering signal is injected into
the output port. The wanted signal channel bandwidth BWChannel shall be the maximum bandwidth supported by the
repeater. The offset of the interfering signal from the wanted signal shall be as in Table 12.1-1.

NOTE:
Interfering signal positions that are partially or completely outside
of the operating frequency band of the repeater are excluded from
the requirement.
The output intermodulation level shall not exceed the unwanted emission limits in clause 9 in the presence of an
interfering signal according to Table 12.1-1. The measurement may be limited to frequencies on which third and fifth
order intermodulation products appear, considering the width of these products.

13.1
Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio (ACRR) is the ratio of the RRC weighted gain per carrier of the repeater in the pass
band to the RRC weighted gain of the repeater on an adjacent channel. The carrier in the pass band and in the adjacent
channel shall be of the same type (reference carrier).
The requirement shall apply to the uplink and downlink of the Repeater, at maximum gain, where the donor link is
maintained via antennas (over the air Repeater).
13.2
This requirement shall be applied for the protection of UTRA signals in geographic areas in which E-UTRA-FDD
Repeater and UTRA BS are deployed so that they serve adjacent channels. The reference carrier is a UTRA-FDD
carrier.
