4 General
The minimum requirements given in this specification make no allowance for measurement uncertainty. The test
specifications TS 38.141-1 [5] and TS 38.141-2 [6] define 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. For some requirements, including regulatory requirements, the test tolerance is set to zero.
The measurement results returned by the test system are compared - without any modification - against the test
requirements as defined by the shared risk principle.

Radiated characteristics are defined over the air (OTA), where the operating band specific radiated interface is referred
to as the Radiated Interface Boundary (RIB). Radiated requirements are also referred to as OTA requirements. The
(spatial) characteristics in which the OTA requirements apply are detailed for each requirement.
Conducted characteristics are defined at individual or groups of TAB connectors at the transceiver array boundary,
which is the conducted interface between the transceiver unit array and the composite antenna.
The transceiver unit array is part of the composite transceiver functionality generating modulated transmit signal
structures and performing receiver combining and demodulation.
The transceiver unit array contains an implementation specific number of transmitter units and an implementation
specific number of receiver units. Transmitter units and receiver units may be combined into transceiver units. The
transmitter/receiver units have the ability to transmit/receive parallel independent modulated symbol streams.
The composite antenna contains a radio distribution network (RDN) and an antenna array. The RDN is a linear passive
network which distributes the RF power generated by the transceiver unit array to the antenna array, and/or distributes
the radio signals collected by the antenna array to the transceiver unit array, in an implementation specific way.
How a conducted requirement is applied to the transceiver array boundary is detailed in the respective requirement
clause.

Co-location requirements are specified at the conducted interface of the co-location reference antenna, the co-location
reference antenna does not form part of the BS under test but is a means to provide OTA power levels which are
representative of a co-located system, further defined in clause 4.9.
For a BS type 1-O the transceiver unit array must contain at least 8 transmitter units and at least 8 receiver units.
Transmitter units and receiver units may be combined into transceiver units. The transmitter/receiver units have the
ability to transmit/receive parallel independent modulated symbol streams.
For BS type 1-O and 2-O, BS classes are defined as indicated below:

NOTE: Local Are Base stations are applicable also in Femto Cell scenarios.
For BS type 1-C, 1-H and 1-O, HAPS BS class is defined as indicated below:
- HAPS Base Stations are characterised by requirements derived from High Altitude Platform scenarios with a BS
to ground UE minimum distance of typically around 20km.
- Unless otherwise stated, HAPS BS class would refer to Wide Area BS class, which is specified in clause 4.4.
For ATG BS type1-C, 1-H and 1-O, ATG BS class is defined as below:
- ATG Base Stations are characterized by requirements derived from ATG scenarios with a ground BS to air UE
with typical vertical altitude of around 10,000m and take-off/landing altitudes down to 3000m.

For BS operation in non-contiguous spectrum, some requirements apply both at the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges
and inside the sub-block gaps. For each such requirement, it is stated how the limits apply relative to the Base Station
RF Bandwidth edges and the sub-block edges respectively.
- Single-band transmitter spurious emissions, operating band unwanted emissions, ACLR, transmitter
intermodulation and receiver spurious emissions requirements apply to this connector that is mapped to single-
band. In case there are carrier(s) transmitted simultaneously in another supported operating band in common
active RF components, when the RF signals of these antenna connectors cover the same geographical area, the
frequency range of the Base Station RF bandwidth in the other supported band to this antenna connector should
be excluded from the unwanted emission requirements.
- If the BS is configured for single-band operation, single-band requirements shall apply to this connector
configured for single-band operation and no exclusions or provisions for multi-band capable BS are applicable.
Single-band requirements are tested separately at the connector configured for single-band operation, with all
other antenna connectors terminated.
A BS type 1-H may be capable of supporting operation in multiple operating bands with one of the following
implementations of TAB connectors in the transceiver array boundary:
- Different sets of single-band connectors support different operating bands, but each TAB connector supports
only operation in one single operating band.
- Sets of single-band connectors support operation in multiple operating bands with some single-band
connectors supporting more than one operating band.
- A combination of single-band sets and multi-band sets of TAB connectors provides support of the type BS type
1-H capability of operation in multiple operating bands.
Unless otherwise stated all requirements specified for an operating band apply only to the set of TAB connectors
supporting that operating band.
In the case of an operating band being supported only by single-band connectors in a TAB connector TX min cell group
or a TAB connector RX min cell group, single-band requirements apply to that set of TAB connectors.
In the case of an operating band being supported only by multi-band connectors supporting the same operating band
combination in a TAB connector TX min cell group or a TAB connector RX min cell group, multi-band requirements
apply to that set of TAB connectors.
The case of an operating band being supported by both multi-band connectors and single-band connectors in a TAB
connector TX min cell group or a TAB connector RX min cell group is not covered by the present release of this
specification.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 34 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
The case of an operating band being supported by multi-band connectors which are not all supporting the same
operating band combination in a TAB connector TX min cell group or a TAB connector RX min cell group is not
covered by the present release of this specification.
BS type 1-O may be capable of supporting operation in multiple operating bands with one of the following
implementations at the radiated interface boundary:
- A combination of single-band RIBs and multi-band RIBs provides support of the BS type 1-O capability of
operation in multiple operating bands.
For multi-band connectors and multi-band RIBs supporting the bands for TDD, the RF requirements in the present
specification assume no simultaneous uplink and downlink occur between the bands.
The RF requirements for multi-band connectors and multi-band RIBs supporting bands for both FDD and TDD are not
covered by the present release of this specification.
Unwanted emission and out of band blocking co-location requirements are optional requirements based on declaration.
TX OFF and TX IMD are mandatory requirements and have the form of a co-location requirement as it represents the
worst-case scenario of all the interference cases.
NOTE: Due to the low level of the unwanted emissions for the spurious emissions and TX OFF level co-location
is the most suitable method to show conformance.
The co-location reference antenna shall be a single column passive antenna which has the same vertical radiating
dimension (h), frequency range, polarization, as the composite antenna of the BS type 1-O and nominal 65° horizontal
half-power beamwidth (suitable for 3-sector deployment) and is placed at a distance d from the edge of the BS type 1-O,
as shown in figure 4.9-1.

Edge-to-edge separation d between the BS type 1-O and the co-location reference antenna shall be set to 0.1 m.
The BS type 1-O and the co-location reference antenna shall be aligned in a common plane perpendicular to the
mechanical bore-sight direction, as shown in figure 4.9-1.
The co-location reference antenna and the BS type 1-O can have different width.
The vertical radiating regions of the co-location reference antenna and the BS type 1-O composite antenna shall be
aligned.
For co-location requirements where the frequency range of the signal at the co-location reference antenna is different
from the BS type 1-O, a co-location reference antenna suitable for the frequency stated in the requirement is assumed.
OTA co-location requirements are based on the power at the conducted interface of a co-location reference antenna,
depending on the requirement this interface is either an input or an output. For BS type 1-O with dual polarization the
co-location reference antenna has two conducted interfaces each representing one polarization.

In the case that multiple numerologies are multiplexed in the same symbol, the minimum guardband on each side of the
carrier is the guardband applied at the configured BS channel bandwidth for the numerology that is transmitted/received
immediately adjacent to the guard band.
For FR1, if multiple numerologies are multiplexed in the same symbol and the BS channel bandwidth is >50 MHz, the
guardband applied adjacent to 15 kHz SCS shall be the same as the guardband defined for 30 kHz SCS for the same BS
channel bandwidth.
For FR2, if multiple numerologies are multiplexed in the same symbol and the BS channel bandwidth is >200 MHz, the
guardband applied adjacent to 60 kHz SCS shall be the same as the guardband defined for 120 kHz SCS for the same
BS channel bandwidth.
NOTE: Figure 5.3.3-2 is not intended to imply the size of any guard between the two numerologies. Inter-
numerology guard band within the carrier is implementation dependent.
5.3.4 RB alignment
For each BS channel bandwidth and each numerology, BS transmission bandwidth configuration must fulfil the
minimum guardband requirement specified in clause 5.3.3.
For each numerology, its common resource blocks are specified in clause 4.4.4.3 in [9], and the starting point of its
transmission bandwidth configuration on the common resource block grid for a given channel bandwidth is indicated
by an offset to “Reference point A” in the unit of the numerology.
For each numerology, all UE transmission bandwidth configurations indicated to UEs served by the BS by higher layer

The channel spacing for intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation can be adjusted to any multiple of least common
multiple of channel raster and sub-carrier spacing less than the nominal channel spacing to optimize performance in a
particular deployment scenario.
For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation in NR bands restricted to operation with shared-spectrum channel access,
the maximum deviation from the nominal channel spacing is 300 kHz.
For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation, the channel spacing between two NR component carriers in
different sub-blocks shall be larger than the nominal channel spacing defined in this clause.
RF reference frequencies are designated by an NR Absolute Radio Frequency Channel Number (NR-ARFCN) in the
range [0…3279165] on the global frequency raster. The relation between the NR-ARFCN and the RF reference
frequency FREF in MHz is given by the following equation, where FREF-Offs and NRef-Offs are given in table 5.4.2.1-1 and
NREF is the NR-ARFCN.
The channel raster defines a subset of RF reference frequencies that can be used to identify the RF channel position in
the uplink and downlink. The RF reference frequency for an RF channel maps to a resource element on the carrier. For
each operating band, a subset of frequencies from the global frequency raster are applicable for that band and forms a
channel raster with a granularity ΔFRaster, which may be equal to or larger than ΔFGlobal.

6.1 General
Unless otherwise stated, the conducted transmitter characteristics are specified at the antenna connector for BS type 1-C
and at the TAB connector for BS type 1-H, with a full complement of transceiver units for the configuration in normal
operating conditions.
For BS type 1-H the manufacturer shall declare the minimum number of supported geographical cells (i.e. geographical
areas covered by beams). The minimum number of supported geographical cells (Ncells) relates to the BS setting with
the minimum amount of cell splitting supported with transmission on all TAB connectors supporting the operating
band, or with minimum amount of transmitted beams.
For BS type 1-H manufacturer shall also declare TAB connector TX min cell groups. Every TAB connector of the BS
type 1-H supporting transmission in an operating band shall map to one TAB connector TX min cell group supporting
the same operating band, where mapping of TAB connectors to cells/beams is implementation dependent.
The number of active transmitter units that are considered when calculating the conducted TX emissions limits
(NTXU,counted) for BS type 1-H is calculated as follows:
NTXU,countedpercell is used for scaling of basic limits and is derived as NTXU,countedpercell = NTXU,counted / Ncells
NOTE: NTXU,active depends on the actual number of active transmitter units and is independent to the declaration
of Ncells.
For BS type 1-H there is no requirement specified for band n46, n100 and n101 and n102.
The requirements for NB-IoT are not applied for ATG BS.
The rated carrier output power of the BS type 1-C shall be as specified in table 6.2.1-1.
Table 6.2.1-1: BS type 1-C rated output power limits for BS classes
BS class Prated,c,AC
Wide Area BS (Note)
Medium Range BS ≤ 38 dBm
Local Area BS ≤ 24 dBm
NOTE: There is no upper limit for the Prated,c,AC rated output power of the Wide Area Base Station.
For operation in bands n100 and n101 in CEPT countries subject to the ECC Decision (20)02 [21], the WA BS
requirement in table 6.2.1-1 apply in case of coordinated RMR BS deployments, while the requirements in clause 6.2.4
apply in case of uncoordinated RMR BS deployments.
The rated carrier output power of the BS type 1-H shall be as specified in table 6.2.1-2.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 65 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
Table 6.2.1-2: BS type 1-H rated output power limits for BS classes
In addition, for operation with shared spectrum channel access operation, the BS may have to comply with the
applicable BS power limits established regionally, when deployed in regions where those limits apply and under the
conditions declared by the manufacturer.
In extreme conditions, Pmax,c,AC shall remain within +2.5 dB and -2.5 dB of the rated carrier output power Prated,c,AC,
declared by the manufacturer.
In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the
range of conditions defined as normal.
NOTE: For NB-IoT operation in NR in-band, the NR carrier and NB-IoT carrier shall be seen as a single carrier
occupied NR channel bandwidth, the output power over this carrier is shared between NR and NB-IoT.
This note shall apply for Pmax,c,AC and Prated,c,AC.
In extreme conditions, Pmax,c,TABC shall remain within +2.5 dB and -2.5 dB of the rated carrier output power Prated,c,TABC
for each TAB connector as declared by the manufacturer.
In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the
range of conditions defined as normal.
For Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan, the rated output power, Prated,c.sys for BS type 1-H or sum of Prated,c,AC over all
antenna connectors for BS type 1-C declared by the manufacturer shall be equal to or less than 20 W per 10 MHz
bandwidth.
For band n100 in CEPT countries subject to the ECC Decision (20)02 [21], Prated,c,AC of the WA BS shall not exceed
51.5 dBm/5MHz + (fDL-922.1) x 40/3 dB, with fDL being the centre frequency in MHz. This limit is derived from ECC
Decision (20)02 [21] assuming a 17 dBi maximum antenna gain and 4 dB losses, and assuming one antenna connector.
The above rated output power limit for band n100 applies to uncoordinated deployments and in case of coordinated
deployments, higher output power values may be allowed.
For CEPT countries subject to the ECC Decision (20)02 [21], administrations wishing to allow multiple carriers, i.e.
more than one wideband carrier (LTE, NR, NB-IoT standalone or NR/LTE with NB-IoT in-band) in band n100, should
consider the implementation of a coordination procedure or other mitigation measures.
NOTE: For more details on the maximum level derivation, refer to TR 38.853 [23].
NOTE: The additional maximum output power requirement for 3 MHz channel bandwidth will be updated in a
later version, based on CEPT WG FM’s feedback.

For band n101 in CEPT countries subject to the ECC Decision (20)02 [21], Prated,c,AC shall not exceed 51 dBm/10MHz
or 48 dBm/5MHz. This limit is derived from ECC Decision (20)02 [21] assuming a 18 dBi maximum antenna gain and
4 dB losses, and assuming one antenna connector. The above rated output power limit for band n101 applies to
uncoordinated deployments and in case of coordinated deployments, higher output power values may be allowed.
For CEPT countries subject to the ECC Decision (20)02 [21], administrations wishing to allow multiple carriers, i.e.
more than one wideband carrier (LTE, NR, NB-IoT standalone or NR/LTE with NB-IoT in-band) in band n101, should
consider the implementation of a coordination procedure or other mitigation measures.
NOTE: For more details on the maximum level derivation, refer to TR 38.852 [22].

The frequency error requirement for NB-IoT are specified in TS 36.104 [13] clause 6.5.1.
6.5.2.1 General
Modulation quality is defined by the difference between the measured carrier signal and an ideal signal. Modulation
quality can e.g. be expressed as Error Vector Magnitude (EVM). The Error Vector Magnitude is a measure of the

error vector. Details about how the EVM is determined are specified in Annex B.
For BS type 1-C this requirement shall be applied at the antenna connector supporting transmission in the operating
band.
For BS type 1-H this requirement shall be applied at each TAB connector supporting transmission in the operating band.

6.5.3.1 General
This requirement shall apply to frame timing in MIMO transmission, carrier aggregation and their combinations.
Frames of the NR signals present at the BS transmitter antenna connectors or TAB connectors are not perfectly aligned
in time. The RF signals present at the BS transmitter antenna connectors or transceiver array boundary may experience
certain timing differences in relation to each other.
For BS type 1-C, the TAE is defined as the largest timing difference between any two signals belonging to different
antenna connectors for a specific set of signals/transmitter configuration/transmission mode.
For BS type 1-H, the TAE is defined as the largest timing difference between any two signals belonging to TAB
connectors belonging to different transmitter groups at the transceiver array boundary, where transmitter groups are
associated with the TAB connectors in the transceiver unit array corresponding to MIMO transmission, carrier
aggregation for a specific set of signals/transmitter configuration/transmission mode.
For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation, with or without MIMO, TAE shall not exceed 260ns.
For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation, with or without MIMO, TAE shall not exceed 3µs.
For inter-band carrier aggregation, with or without MIMO, TAE shall not exceed 3µs.

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 (OBUE).
The maximum offset of the operating band unwanted emissions mask from the operating band edge is ΔfOBUE. The
Operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted emissions in each supported downlink operating band plus the
frequency ranges ΔfOBUE above and ΔfOBUE below each band. Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range are
limited by a spurious emissions requirement.
The values of ΔfOBUE are defined in table 6.6.1-1 for the NR operating bands.

The occupied bandwidth is the width of a frequency band such that, below the lower and above the upper frequency
limits, the mean powers emitted are each equal to a specified percentage β/2 of the total mean transmitted power. See
also Recommendation ITU-R SM.328 [3].
The occupied bandwidth requirement shall apply during the transmitter ON period for a single transmitted carrier. The
minimum requirement below may be applied regionally. There may also be regional requirements to declare the
occupied bandwidth according to the definition in the present clause.
For BS type 1-C this requirement shall be applied at the antenna connector supporting transmission in the operating
band.
For BS type 1-H this requirement shall be appliedat each TAB connector supporting transmission in the operating band.

For a multi-band connector inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gaps with Wgap < 2*ΔfOBUE, a combined basic limit shall be
applied which is the cumulative sum of the basic limits specified at the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges on each side
of the Inter RF Bandwidth gap. The basic limit for Base Station RF Bandwidth edge is specified in clauses 6.6.4.2.1 to
6.6.4.2.4 below, where in this case:
- Δf is the separation between the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the
measuring filter closest to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edge.

For a multi-carrier single-band connector or a single-band connector configured for intra-band contiguous or non-
contiguous carrier aggregation the definitions above apply to the lower edge of the carrier transmitted at the lowest
carrier frequency and the upper edge of the carrier transmitted at the highest carrier frequency within a specified
frequency band.
ETSI

- In case the inter-band gap between a supported downlink operating band with carrier(s) transmitted and a
supported downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted is less than 2*ΔfOBUE, f_offsetmax shall be the
offset to the frequency ΔfOBUE MHz outside the outermost edges of the two supported downlink operating bands
and the operating band unwanted emission basic limits of the band where there are carriers transmitted, as
defined in the tables of the present clause, shall apply across both downlink bands.
- In other cases, the operating band unwanted emission basic limits of the band where there are carriers
transmitted, as defined in the tables of the present clause for the largest frequency offset (Δfmax), shall apply from
ΔfOBUE MHz below the lowest frequency, up to ΔfOBUE MHz above the highest frequency of the supported
downlink operating band without any carrier transmitted.
For a multicarrier single-band connector or a single-band connector configured for intra-band contiguous or non-
contiguous carrier aggregation the definitions above apply to the lower edge of the carrier transmitted at the lowest
carrier frequency and the upper edge of the carrier transmitted at the highest carrier frequency within a specified
frequency band.
In addition inside any sub-block gap for a single-band connector operating in non-contiguous spectrum, a combined
basic limit shall be applied which is the cumulative sum of the basic limits specified for the adjacent sub-blocks on each
side of the sub-block gap. The basic limit for each sub-block is specified in clauses 6.6.4.2.1 to 6.6.4.2.4 below, where
in this case:
- Δf is the separation between the sub-block edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter
closest to the sub-block edge.
- f_offset is the separation between the sub-block edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
- f_offsetmax is equal to the sub-block gap bandwidth minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
- Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
For Wide Area BS, the requirements of either clause 6.6.4.2.1 (Category A limits) or clause 6.6.4.2.2 (Category B
limits) shall apply.
For Medium Range BS, the requirements in clause 6.6.4.2.3 shall apply (Category A and B).
For Local Area BS, the requirements of clause 6.6.4.2.4 shall apply (Category A and B).
The requirements shall also apply if the BS supports NB-IoT operation in NR in-band.
The application of either Category A or Category B basic limits shall be the same as for Transmitter spurious emissions
in clause 6.6.5.

In regions where FCC regulation applies, requirements for protection of GPS according to FCC Order DA 20-48 [25]
applies for operation in Band n24. The following normative requirement covers the base station, to be used together
with other information about the site installation to verify compliance with the requirement in FCC Order DA 20-48

to the 1541 – 1650 MHz band. This requirement applies to the frequency range 1541-1650 MHz, even though part of
this range falls within the spurious domain.
The level of emissions in the 1541 – 1650 MHz band, measured in measurement bandwidth according to Table
6.6.4.2.5.6-1 shall not exceed the maximum emission levels PEM,B24,a, PEM,B24,b, PEM,B24,c, PEM,B24,d, PEM,B24,e and PEM,B24,f

deployment (including antenna gain and feeder loss). The EIRP level is calculated using: PEIRP = PE + Gant
where PE denotes the BS unwanted emission level at the antenna connector, Gant equals the BS antenna
gain minus feeder loss. The requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the base station

For Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan, the operating band unwanted emissions limits shall be applied to the sum of
the emission power over all antenna connectors for BS type 1-C.
NOTE: Conformance to the BS type 1-H spurious emission requirement can be demonstrated by meeting at least
one of the following criteria as determined by the manufacturer:
1) The sum of the emissions power measured on each TAB connector in the TAB connector TX min cell
group shall be less than or equal to the limit as defined in this clause for the respective frequency span.
Or
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 95 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
2) The unwanted emissions power at each TAB connector shall be less than or equal to the BS type 1-H
limit as defined in this clause for the respective frequency span, scaled by -10log10(n), where n is the
number of TAB connectors in the TAB connector TX min cell group.
6.6.5.1 General
The transmitter spurious emission limits shall apply from 9 kHz to 12.75 GHz, excluding the frequency range from
ΔfOBUE below the lowest frequency of each supported downlink operating band, up to ΔfOBUE above the highest
frequency of each supported downlink operating band, where the ΔfOBUE is defined in table 6.6.1-1. For some operating
bands, the upper limit is higher than 12.75 GHz in order to comply with the 5th harmonic limit of the downlink
operating band, as specified in ITU-R recommendation SM.329 [2].
For a multi-band connector, for each supported operating band together with ΔfOBUE around the band is excluded from
the transmitter spurious emissions requirement.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered (single carrier or multi-carrier). It applies for

NOTE 1: For BS operating in band n104, the basic limit is increased by 1dB.
NOTE 2: For BS operating in regions where a band is only partially allocated for NR operations
(e.g. band n28), this requirement only applies in the UL frequency range of the partial

NOTE 3: For BS capable of multi-band operation, Table 6.6.5.2.2-1 assumes that the supported
operating bands, where the corresponding BS transmit and receive frequency ranges in
table 5.2-1 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 protection requirements may apply that are not covered by
the 3GPP specifications.
Some requirements may apply for the protection of specific equipment (UE, MS and/or BS) or equipment operating in
specific systems (GSM, CDMA, UTRA, E-UTRA, NR, etc.) as listed below.

NOTE 1: As defined in the scope for spurious emissions in this clause, except for the cases where the noted
requirements apply to a BS operating in Band n28, the co-existence requirements in table 6.6.5.2.3 -1 do
not apply for the ΔfOBUE frequency range immediately outside the downlink operating band (see table 5.2-
1). Emission limits for this excluded frequency range may be covered by local or regional requirements.
NOTE 2: Table 6.6.5.2.3 -1 assumes that two operating bands, where the frequency ranges in table 5.2-1 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.
NOTE 3: TDD base stations deployed in the same geographical area, that are synchronized and use the same or
adjacent operating bands can transmit without additional co-existence requirements. For unsynchronized
base stations, special co-existence requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP
specifications.
NOTE 4: For NR Band n28 BS, specific solutions may be required to fulfil the spurious emissions limits for BS for
co-existence with E-UTRA Band 27 UL operating band.
NOTE 5: For NR Band n29 BS, specific solutions may be required to fulfil the spurious emissions limits for NR BS
for co-existence with UTRA Band XII, E-UTRA Band 12 or NR Band n12 UL operating band, E-UTRA
Band 17 UL operating band or E-UTRA Band 85 UL or NR Band n85 UL operating band.
The following requirement may be applied for the protection of PHS. This requirement is also applicable at specified
frequencies falling between ΔfOBUE below the lowest BS transmitter frequency of the downlink operating band and
ΔfOBUE above the highest BS transmitter frequency of the downlink operating band. ΔfOBUE is defined in clause 6.6.1.
The spurious emission basic limit for this requirement is:
Table 6.6.5.2.3-2: BS spurious emissions basic limits for BS for co-existence with PHS
In certain regions, the following requirement may apply to NR BS operating in Band n50 and n75 within the 1432 –
1452 MHz, and in Band n51 and Band n76. The basic limit is specified in Table 6.6.5.2.3-4. This requirement is also
applicable at the frequency range from ΔfOBUE below the lowest frequency of the BS downlink operating band up to
ΔfOBUE above the highest frequency of the BS downlink operating band.

In certain regions, the following requirement shall be applied to BS operating in Band n13 and n14 to ensure that
appropriate interference protection is provided to 700 MHz public safety operations. This requirement is also applicable
at the frequency range from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the BS downlink operating band up to 10 MHz
above the highest frequency of the BS downlink operating band.
Table 6.6.5.2.3-6: BS Spurious emissions limits for protection of 700 MHz public safety operations
In certain regions, the following requirement may apply to NR BS operating in Band n30. This requirement is also
applicable at the frequency range from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the BS downlink operating band up to 10
MHz above the highest frequency of the BS downlink operating band.
The following requirement may apply to BS operating in Band n48 in certain regions. The power of any spurious
emission shall not exceed:
NOTE 1: 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 should be integrated over the measurement bandwidth in order to
obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement bandwidth.

NOTE 2: The regional requirement, included in [12], is defined in terms of EIRP, which is dependent on both the
BS emissions at the antenna connector and the deployment (including antenna gain and feeder loss). The
requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the base station needed to verify compliance
with the regional requirement. The assessment of the EIRP level is described in Annex F.
The following requirement shall be applied to BS operating in Band n26 to ensure that appropriate interference
protection is provided to 800 MHz public safety operations. This requirement is also applicable at the frequency range
from 10 MHz below the lowest frequency of the BS downlink operating band up to 10 MHz above the highest
frequency of the BS downlink operating band.
Table 6.6.5.2.3-9: BS Spurious emissions limits for protection of 800 MHz public safety operations
The following requirement may apply to BS for Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan. This requirement is also
applicable at the frequency range from ΔfOBUE below the lowest frequency of the BS downlink operating band up to
ΔfOBUE above the highest frequency of the BS downlink operating band.
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed:
Table 6.6.5.2.3-10: Additional BS Spurious emissions limits for Band n41 and n90
The following requirement may apply to BS operating in 3.45-3.55 GHz in Band n77 in certain regions. The power of
any spurious emission shall not exceed:
NOTE: 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 should be integrated over the measurement bandwidth in order to
obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement bandwidth.
The following requirement shall apply to BS operating in Band n101 in CEPT countries. The power of any spurious
emission shall not exceed:

The following requirement may also apply to BS operating in Band n54 in certain regions. The level of emissions in the
1541 – 1650 MHz band, measured in measurement bandwidth according to Table 6.6.5.2.3-14 shall not exceed the
maximum emission levels PEM,n54,a, PEM,n54,b, PEM,n54,c, PEM,n54,d, PEM,n54,e and PEM,n54,f declared by the manufacturer.

Note: The regional requirements is defined in terms of EIRP (effective isotropic radiated power), which is
dependent on both the BS emissions at the antenna connector and the deployment (including antenna gain
and feeder loss). The EIRP level is calculated using: PEIRP = PE + Gant where PE denotes the BS unwanted
emission level at the antenna connector, Gant equals the BS antenna gain minus feeder loss. The
requirement defined above provides the characteristics of the base station needed to verify compliance
with the regional requirement specified in attachment to the FCC reference document, 0007135419.
The requirements assume a 30 dB coupling loss between transmitter and receiver and are based on co-location with
base stations of the same class.

NOTE 1: As defined in the scope for spurious emissions in this clause, the co-location requirements in
table 6.6.5.2.4-1 do not apply for the frequency range extending ΔfOBUE immediately outside the BS
transmit frequency range of a downlink operating band (see table 5.2-1). 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 BS-BS minimum coupling loss. However, there are certain site-engineering
solutions that can be used. These techniques are addressed in TR 25.942 [4].
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 113 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
NOTE 2: Table 6.6.5.2.4-1 assumes that two operating bands, where the corresponding BS transmit and receive
frequency ranges in table 5.2-1 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: Co-located TDD base stations that are synchronized and using the same or adjacent operating band can
transmit without special co-locations requirements. For unsynchronized base stations, special co-location
requirements may apply that are not covered by the 3GPP specifications.
For Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan, the sum of the spurious emissions over all antenna connectors for BS type 1-
C shall not exceed the basic limits defined in clause 6.6.5.2.
NOTE: Conformance to the BS type 1-H spurious emission requirement can be demonstrated by meeting at least
one of the following criteria as determined by the manufacturer:
1) The sum of the emissions power measured on each TAB connector in the TAB connector TX min cell
group shall be less than or equal to the limit as defined in this clause for the respective frequency span.
Or
2) The unwanted emissions power at each TAB connector shall be less than or equal to the BS type 1-H
limit as defined in this clause for the respective frequency span, scaled by -10log10(n), where n is the
number of TAB connectors in the TAB connector TX min cell group.
For BS type 1-C, the transmitter intermodulation level is the power of the intermodulation products when an interfering
signal is injected into the antenna connector.
For BS type 1-H, the transmitter intermodulation level is the power of the intermodulation products when an interfering
signal is injected into the TAB connector.
For BS type 1-H, there are two types of transmitter intermodulation cases captured by the transmitter intermodulation
requirement:
1) Co-location transmitter intermodulation in which the interfering signal is from a co-located base station.
2) Intra-system transmitter intermodulation in which the interfering signal is from other transmitter units within the
BS type 1-H.
For BS type 1-H, the co-location transmitter intermodulation requirement is considered sufficient if the interference
signal for the co-location requirement is higher than the declared interference signal for intra-system transmitter

The requirement is applicable outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth. The interfering signal offset
is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth edges.
For a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirement is also applicable inside a sub-block gap for interfering
signal offsets where the interfering signal falls completely within the sub-block gap. The interfering signal offset is
defined relative to the sub-block edges.
For a multi-band connector, the requirement shall apply relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges of each
supported operating band. In case the Inter RF Bandwidth gap is less than 3*BWChannel (where BWChannel is the minimal
BS channel bandwidth of the band), the requirement in the gap shall apply only for interfering signal offsets where the
interfering signal falls completely within the Inter RF Bandwidth gap.
The transmitter intermodulation level shall not exceed the unwanted emission limits in clauses 6.6.3, 6.6.4 and 6.6.5 in

7.5.3 Co-location minimum requirements for BS type 1-C and BS type 1-H
This additional blocking requirement may be applied for the protection of NR BS receivers when GSM, CDMA,
UTRA, E-UTRA or NR BS operating in a different frequency band are co-located with a NR BS. The requirement is
applicable to all BS channel bandwidths supported by the NR BS.
The requirements in this clause assume a 30 dB coupling loss between interfering transmitter and NR BS receiver and
are based on co-location with base stations of the same class.
The throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel, with a wanted and
an interfering signal coupled to BS type 1-C antenna connector or BS type 1-H TAB connector input using the
parameters in table 7.5.3-1 for all the BS classes. The reference measurement channel for the wanted signal is identified

NOTE: PREFSENS depends on the BS channel bandwidth as specified in table 7.2.2-1.
NOTE: In this case for FDD operation the test is performed when both TX and RX are ON, with the TX antenna
connectors / TAB connectors terminated.
For antenna connectors / TAB connectors supporting both RX and TX in TDD, the requirements apply during the
transmitter OFF period. For antenna connectors / TAB connectors supporting both RX and TX in FDD, the RX
spurious emissions requirements are superseded by the TX spurious emissions requirements, as specified in
clause 6.6.5.
For RX-only multi-band connectors, the spurious emissions requirements are subject to exclusion zones in each
supported operating band. For multi-band connectors that both transmit and receive in operating band supporting TDD,
RX spurious emissions requirements are applicable during the TX OFF period, and are subject to exclusion zones in
each supported operating band.
For BS type 1-H manufacturer shall declare TAB connector RX min cell groups. Every TAB connector of BS type 1-H
supporting reception in an operating band shall map to one TAB connector RX min cell group, where mapping of TAB
connectors to cells/beams is implementation dependent.
The number of active receiver units that are considered when calculating the conducted RX spurious emission limits
(NRXU,counted) for BS type 1-H is calculated as follows:
NRXU,countedpercell is used for scaling of basic limits and is derived as NRXU,countedpercell = NRXU,counted / Ncells, where Ncells is
defined in clause 6.1.
NOTE: NRXU,active is the number of actually active receiver units and is independent to the declaration of Ncells.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 147 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
For Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan, the sum of RX spurious emissions requirements over all antenna connectors
for BS type 1-C shall not exceed basic limits specified in table 7.6.2-1.
The Rx spurious emissions requirements shall apply to BS that support NR or NR with NB-IoT operation in NR in-
band.
The RX spurious emission requirements are applied per the TAB connector RX min cell group for all the configurations
supported by the BS.
NOTE: Conformance to the BS receiver spurious emissions requirement can be demonstrated by meeting at least
one of the following criteria as determined by the manufacturer:
1) The sum of the spurious emissions power measured on each TAB connector in the TAB connector RX
min cell group shall be less than or equal to the BS limit above for the respective frequency span.
Or
2) The spurious emissions power at each TAB connector shall be less than or equal to the BS limit as
defined above for the respective frequency span, scaled by -10log10(n), where n is the number of TAB
connectors in the TAB connector RX min cell group.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 148 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
For NB-IoT operation in NR in-band, the throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference
measurement channel, with a wanted signal at the assigned channel frequency and two interfering signals coupled to the
BS type 1-C antenna connector, with the conditions specified in tables 7.7.2-1 and 7.7.2-2 for intermodulation
performance and in tables 7.7.2-3, and 7.7.2-4 for narrowband intermodulation performance. The reference
measurement channel for the NB-IoT wanted signal is identified in clause 7.2.1 of TS 36.104 [13]. The characteristics
of the interfering signal is further specified in annex D.
The subcarrier spacing for the modulated interfering signal shall in general be the same as the subcarrier spacing for the
wanted signal, except for the case of wanted signal subcarrier spacing 60 kHz and BS channel bandwidth <=20MHz, for
which the subcarrier spacing of the interfering signal shall be 30 kHz.
The receiver intermodulation requirement is applicable outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth
edges. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth
edges.
For a BS operating in non-contiguous spectrum within any operating band, the narrowband intermodulation
requirement shall apply in addition inside any sub-block gap in case the sub-block gap is at least as wide as the channel
bandwidth of the NR interfering signal in table 7.7.2-2 or 7.7.2-4. The interfering signal offset is defined relative to the
sub-block edges inside the sub-block gap.
For a multi-band connector, the intermodulation requirement shall apply in addition inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap,
in case the gap size is at least twice as wide as the NR interfering signal centre frequency offset from the Base Station
RF Bandwidth edge.
For a multi-band connector, the narrowband intermodulation requirement shall apply in addition inside any Inter RF
Bandwidth gap in case the gap size is at least as wide as the NR interfering signal in tables 7.7.2-2 and 7.7.2-4. The
interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges inside the Inter RF Bandwidth gap.

8.1 General
8.1.1 Scope and definitions
Conducted performance requirements specify the ability of the BS type 1-C or BS type 1-H to correctly demodulate
signals in various conditions and configurations. Conducted performance requirements are specified at the antenna
connector(s) (for BS type 1-C) and at the TAB connector(s) (for BS type 1-H).
Conducted performance requirements for the BS are specified for the fixed reference channels defined in annex A and
the propagation conditions in annex G. The requirements only apply to those FRCs that are supported by the base
station.
Unless stated otherwise, performance requirements apply for a single carrier only. Performance requirements for a BS
supporting carrier aggregation are defined in terms of single carrier requirements.
For FDD operation the requirements in clause 8 shall be met with the transmitter units associated with antenna
connectors (for BS type 1-C) or TAB connectors (for BS type 1-H) in the operating band turned ON.
NOTE: In normal operating conditions, antenna connectors (for BS type 1-C) or TAB connectors (for BS type 1-
H) in FDD operation are configured to transmit and receive at the same time. The associated transmitter
unit(s) may be OFF for some of the tests as specified in TS 38.141-1 [5].
The SNR used in this clause is specified based on a single carrier and defined as:
SNR = S / N
Where:
S is the total signal energy in the slot on a single antenna connector (for BS type 1-C) or on a single TAB connector
(for BS type 1-H).
N is the noise energy in a bandwidth corresponding to the transmission bandwidth over the same duration where
signal energy exists on a single antenna connector (for BS type 1-C) or on a single TAB connector (for BS type 1-
H).

8.2.1.1 General
The performance requirement of PUSCH is determined by a minimum required throughput for a given SNR. The
required throughput is expressed as a fraction of maximum throughput for the FRCs listed in annex A. The performance
requirements assume HARQ retransmissions.

8.2.3.1 General
In the tests for UCI multiplexed on PUSCH, the UCI information only contains CSI part 1 and CSI part 2 information,
and there is no HACK/ACK information transmitted.
The CSI part 1 block error probability (BLER) is defined as the probability of incorrectly decoding the CSI part 1
information when the CSI part 1 information is sent as follow:
where:
- #(false CSI part 1) denotes the number of incorrectly decoded CSI part 1 information transmitted occasions
- #(CSI part 1) denotes the number of CSI part 1 information transmitted occasions.
The CSI part 2 block error probability is defined as the probability of incorrectly decoding the CSI part 2 information
when the CSI part 2 information is sent as follows:
where:
- #(false CSI part 2) denotes the number of incorrectly decoded CSI part 2 information transmitted occasions
- #(CSI part 2) denotes the number of CSI part 2 information transmitted occasions.
The number of UCI information bit payload per slot is defined for two cases as follows:
The 7bits UCI case is further defined with the bitmap [c0 c1 c2 c3 c4] = [0 1 0 1 0] for CSI part 1 information, where c0
is mapping to the RI information, and with the bitmap [c0 c1] = [1 0] for CSI part2 information.
The 40bits UCI information case is assumed random information bit selection.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 180 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
In both tests, PUSCH data, CSI part 1 and CSI part 2 information are transmitted simultaneously.

8.2.11.1 General
The performance requirement of CG-UCI multiplexed on interlaced PUSCH is determined by the parameter: block
error probability (BLER) of CG-UCI. The performance is measured by the required SNR at block error probability of
CG-UCI not exceeding 1%.
The CG-UCI BLER is defined as the probability of incorrectly decoding the CG-UCI information when the CG-UCI
information is sent.
In the test of UCI multiplexed on interlaced PUSCH, the UCI information only contains CG-UCI information, there is
no HACK/ACK, CSI part 1 or CSI part 2 information transmitted.
The number of UCI information bit payload per slot is defined as 18 bits.
The 18 bits UCI information case is further defined with the bitmap [c0 c1 c2 c3 c4 … c17] for CG-UCI information,

8.4.1.1 General
The false alarm requirement is valid for any number of receive antennas, for any channel bandwidth.
The false alarm probability is the conditional total probability of erroneous detection of the preamble (i.e. erroneous
detection from any detector) when input is only noise.
8.4.2.1 General
The probability of detection is the conditional probability of correct detection of the preamble when the signal is
present. There are several error cases – detecting different preamble than the one that was sent, not detecting a preamble
at all or correct preamble detection but with the wrong timing estimation. For AWGN, TDLC300-100 and TDLA30-10,
a timing estimation error occurs if the estimation error of the timing of the strongest path is larger than the time error
tolerance given in Table 8.4.2.1-1.
The performance requirements for high speed train (table 8.4.23-1 to 8.4.2.3-4) are optional.

9.1 General
Radiated transmitter characteristics requirements apply on the BS type 1-H, BS type 1-O, or BS type 2-O including all its
functional components active and for all foreseen modes of operation of the BS unless otherwise stated.
For each beam, the requirement is based on declaration of a beam identity, reference beam direction pair, beamwidth,
rated beam EIRP, OTA peak directions set, the beam direction pairs at the maximum steering directions and their
associated rated beam EIRP and beamwidth(s).
For a declared beam and beam direction pair, the rated beam EIRP level is the maximum power that the base station is
declared to radiate at the associated beam peak direction during the transmitter ON period.
For each beam peak direction associated with a beam direction pair within the OTA peak directions set, a specific rated
beam EIRP level may be claimed. Any claimed value shall be met within the accuracy requirement as described below.
Rated beam EIRP is only required to be declared for the beam direction pairs subject to conformance testing as detailed
in TS 38.141-2 [6].
NOTE 1: OTA peak directions set is set of beam peak directions for which the EIRP accuracy requirement is
intended to be met. The beam peak directions are related to a corresponding contiguous range or discrete
list of beam centre directions by the beam direction pairs included in the set.
NOTE 2: A beam direction pair is data set consisting of the beam centre direction and the related beam peak
direction.
NOTE 3: A declared EIRP value is a value provided by the manufacturer for verification according to the
conformance specification declaration requirements, whereas a claimed EIRP value is provided by the
manufacturer to the equipment user for normal operation of the equipment and is not subject to formal
conformance testing.
For operating bands where the supported fractional bandwidth (FBW) is larger than 6%, two rated carrier EIRP
may be declared by manufacturer:
For frequencies in between FFBWlow and FFBWhigh the rated carrier EIRP is:
- Prated,c,FBWlow, for the carrier whose carrier frequency is within frequency range FFBWlow ≤ f < (FFBWlow +FFBWhigh) /
2,
- Prated,c,FBWhigh, for the carrier whose carrier frequency is within frequency range (FFBWlow +FFBWhigh) / 2 ≤ f
≤FFBWhigh.
For BS type 1-O there is no requirement specified for bands n46, n96, n100 and n101 and n102.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 228 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
For BS type 1-O only, for each declared beam, in extreme conditions, for any specific beam peak direction associated
with a beam direction pair within the OTA peak directions set, a manufacturer claimed EIRP level in the corresponding
beam peak direction shall be achievable to within ±2.7 dB of the claimed value.
In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the
range of conditions defined as normal.
For each declared beam, in extreme conditions, for any specific beam peak direction associated with a beam direction
pair within the OTA peak directions set, a manufacturer claimed EIRP level in the corresponding beam peak direction
shall be achievable to within ±4.5 dB of the claimed value.
In certain regions, the minimum requirement for normal conditions may apply also for some conditions outside the
range of conditions defined as normal.
The BS rated carrier TRP output power for BS type 1-O shall be within limits as specified in table 9.3.1-1.
Table 9.3.1-1: BS rated carrier TRP output power limits for BS type 1-O
BS class Prated,c,TRP
Wide Area BS (note)
Medium Range BS ≤ + 47 dBm
Local Area BS ≤ + 33 dBm
NOTE: There is no upper limit for the Prated,c,TRP of the Wide Area Base Station.
There is no upper limit for the rated carrier TRP output power of BS type 2-O.
For Band n41 and n90 operation in Japan, the rated output power, Prated,c,TRP, declared by the manufacturer shall be equal
to or less than 20 W per 10 MHz bandwidth.
Despite the general requirements for the BS output power described in clauses 9.3.2 – 9.3.3, additional regional
requirements might be applicable.
NOTE: In certain regions, power limits corresponding to BS classes may apply for BS type 2-O.

The OTA output power requirements are directional requirements and apply to the beam peak directions over the OTA
peak directions set.
9.4.2.1 General
The OTA RE power control dynamic range is the difference between the power of an RE and the average RE power for
a BS at maximum output power (Pmax,c,EIRP) for a specified reference condition.
This requirement shall apply at each RIB supporting transmission in the operating band.
9.4.3.1 General
The OTA total power dynamic range is the difference between the maximum and the minimum transmit power of an
OFDM symbol for a specified reference condition.
This requirement shall apply at each RIB supporting transmission in the operating band.
NOTE 1: The upper limit of the OTA total power dynamic range is the BS maximum carrier EIRP (Pmax,c,EIRP) when
transmitting on all RBs. The lower limit of the OTA total power dynamic range is the average EIRP for
single RB transmission in the same direction using the same beam. The OFDM symbol carries PDSCH
and not contain RS or SSB.

OTA transmitter OFF power is defined as the mean power measured over 70/N µs filtered with a square filter of
bandwidth equal to the transmission bandwidth configuration of the BS (BWConfig) centred on the assigned channel
frequency during the transmitter OFF period. N = SCS/15, where SCS is Sub Carrier Spacing in kHz.
For BS supporting intra-band contiguous CA, the OTA transmitter OFF power is defined as the mean power measured
over 70/N us filtered with a square filter of bandwidth equal to the Aggregated BS Channel Bandwidth BWChannel_CA
centred on (Fedge,high+Fedge,low)/2 during the transmitter OFF period. N = SCS/15, where SCS is the smallest supported
Sub Carrier Spacing in kHz in the Aggregated BS Channel Bandwidth.
For BS type 1-O, the transmitter OFF power is defined as the output power at the co-location reference antenna
conducted output(s). For BS type 2-O the transmitter OFF power is defined as TRP.
For multi-band RIBs and single band RIBs supporting transmission in multiple bands, the requirement is only applicable
during the transmitter OFF period in all supported operating bands.

is defined as the largest timing difference between any two different NR signals. The OTA time alignment error
requirement is defined as a directional requirement at the RIB and shall be met within the OTA coverage range.
For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation, with or without MIMO, OTA TAE shall not exceed 260 ns.
For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation, with or without MIMO, OTA TAE shall not exceed 3 µs.

emissions.
The OTA out-of-band emissions requirement for the BS type 1-O and BS type 2-O transmitter is specified both in terms
of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and operating band unwanted emissions (OBUE). The OTA
Operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted emissions in each supported downlink operating band plus the
frequency ranges ΔfOBUE above and ΔfOBUE below each band. OTA Unwanted emissions outside of this frequency range
are limited by an OTA spurious emissions requirement.
The maximum offset of the operating band unwanted emissions mask from the operating band edge is ΔfOBUE. The
value of ΔfOBUE is defined in table 9.7.1-1 for BS type 1-O and BS type 2-O for the NR operating bands.

9.7.4.1 General
The OTA limits for operating band unwanted emissions are specified as TRP per RIB unless otherwise stated.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered and for all transmission modes foreseen by the
manufacturer's specification. For a RIB operating in multi-carrier or contiguous CA, the requirements apply to BS
channel bandwidths of the outermost carrier for the frequency ranges defined in clause 6.6.4.1.
For a RIB operating in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirements shall apply inside any sub-block gap for the
frequency ranges defined in clause 6.6.4.1.
For a multi-band RIB, the requirements shall apply inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap for the frequency ranges defined
in clause 6.6.4.1.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 238 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
The OTA operating band unwanted emission requirement for BS type 1-O is that for each applicable basic limit for BS
type 1-H in clause 6.6.4.2, the power of any unwanted emission shall not exceed an OTA limit specified as the basic
limit + X, where X = 9 dB.
In certain regions the following requirement may apply for protection of DTT. For BS type 1-O operating in Band n20,
the level of emissions in the band 470-790 MHz, measured in an 8 MHz filter bandwidth on centre frequencies Ffilter
according to table 9.7.4.2.1.1-1, shall not exceed the maximum emission TRP level shown in the table. This
requirement applies in the frequency range 470-790 MHz even though part of the range falls in the spurious domain.
The BS may have to comply with the applicable emission limits established by FCC Title 47 [8], when deployed in
regions where those limits are applied, and under the conditions declared by the manufacturer.
9.7.4.3.1 General
The requirements of either clause 9.7.4.3.2 (Category A limits) or clause 9.7.4.3.3 (Category B limits) shall apply. The
application of either Category A or Category B limits shall be the same as for General OTA transmitter spurious
emissions requirements (BS type 2-O) in clause 9.7.5.3.2. In addition, the limits in clause 9.7.4.3.4 may also apply.
Out-of-band emissions in FR2 are limited by OTA operating band unwanted emission limits. Unless otherwise stated,
the OTA operating band unwanted emission limits in FR2 are defined from ΔfOBUE below the lowest frequency of each
supported downlink operating band up to ΔfOBUE above the highest frequency of each supported downlink operating
band. The values of ΔfOBUE are defined in table 9.7.1-1 for the NR operating bands.
The requirements shall apply whatever the type of transmitter considered and for all transmission modes foreseen by the
manufacturer's specification. For a RIB operating in multi-carrier or contiguous CA, the requirements apply to the
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 239 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
frequencies (ΔfOBUE) starting from the edge of the contiguous transmission bandwidth. In addition, for a RIB operating
in non-contiguous spectrum, the requirements apply inside any sub-block gap.
Emissions shall not exceed the maximum levels specified in the tables below, where:
- Δf is the separation between the contiguous transmission bandwidth edge frequency and the nominal -3dB point
of the measuring filter closest to the contiguous transmission bandwidth edge.
- f_offset is the separation between the contiguous transmission bandwidth edge frequency and the centre of the
measuring filter.
- f_offsetmax is the offset to the frequency ΔfOBUE outside the downlink operating band, where ΔfOBUE is defined in
table 9.7.1-1.
- Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
In addition, inside any sub-block gap for a RIB operating in non-contiguous spectrum, emissions shall not exceed the
cumulative sum of the limits specified for the adjacent sub-blocks on each side of the sub-block gap. The limit for each
sub-block is specified in clauses 9.7.4.3.2 and 9.7.4.3.3 below, where in this case:
- Δf is the separation between the sub-block edge frequency and the nominal -3 dB point of the measuring filter
closest to the sub-block edge.
- f_offset is the separation between the sub-block edge frequency and the centre of the measuring filter.
- f_offsetmax is equal to the sub-block gap bandwidth minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.
- Δfmax is equal to f_offsetmax minus half of the bandwidth of the measuring filter.

10.1 General
Radiated receiver characteristics are specified at RIB for BS type 1-H, BS type 1-O, or BS type 2-O, with full
complement of transceivers for the configuration in normal operating condition.
Unless otherwise stated, the following arrangements apply for the radiated receiver characteristics requirements in
clause 10:
- For FDD operation the requirements shall be met with the transmitter unit(s) ON.
- Throughput requirements defined for the radiated receiver characteristics do not assume HARQ retransmissions.
- When BS is configured to receive multiple carriers, all the throughput requirements are applicable for each
received carrier.
- For ACS, blocking and intermodulation characteristics, the negative offsets of the interfering signal apply
relative to the lower Base Station RF Bandwidth edge or sub-block edge inside a sub-block gap, and the positive
offsets of the interfering signal apply relative to the upper Base Station RF Bandwidth edge or sub-block edge
inside a sub-block gap.
NOTE 1: In normal operating condition the BS in FDD operation is configured to transmit and receive at the same
time.
NOTE 2: In normal operating condition the BS in TDD operation is configured to TX OFF power during receive
period.
For FR1 requirements which are to be met over the OTA REFSENS RoAoA absolute requirement values are offset by
the following term:

10.2.1.1 General
The OTA sensitivity requirement is a directional requirement based upon the declaration of one or more OTA sensitivity
direction declarations (OSDD), related to a BS type 1-H and BS type 1-O receiver.
The BS type 1-H and BS type 1-O may optionally be capable of redirecting/changing the receiver target by means of
adjusting BS settings resulting in multiple sensitivity RoAoA. The sensitivity RoAoA resulting from the current BS
settings is the active sensitivity RoAoA.
If the BS is capable of redirecting the receiver target related to the OSDD then the OSDD shall include:
- BS channel bandwidth and declared minimum EIS level applicable to any active sensitivity RoAoA inside the
receiver target redirection range in the OSDD.
- A declared receiver target redirection range, describing all the angles of arrival that can be addressed for the
OSDD through alternative settings in the BS.
- Five declared sensitivity RoAoA comprising the conformance testing directions as detailed in TS 38.141-2 [6].
NOTE 1: Some of the declared sensitivity RoAoA may coincide depending on the redirection capability.
NOTE 2: In addition to the declared sensitivity RoAoA, several sensitivity RoAoA may be implicitly defined by the
receiver target redirection range without being explicitly declared in the OSDD.
NOTE 3: (Void)
If the BS is not capable of redirecting the receiver target related to the OSDD, then the OSDD includes only:
- The set(s) of RAT, BS channel bandwidth and declared minimum EIS level applicable to the sensitivity RoAoA
in the OSDD.
NOTE 4: For BS without target redirection capability, the declared (fixed) sensitivity RoAoA is always the active
sensitivity RoAoA.
The OTA sensitivity EIS level declaration shall apply to each supported polarization, under the assumption of
polarization match.

EISREFSENS levels are derived from a single declared basis level EISREFSENS_50M, which is based on a reference
measurement channel with 50 MHz BS channel bandwidth. EISREFSENS_50M itself is not a requirement and although it is
based on a reference measurement channel with 50 MHz BS channel bandwidth it does not imply that BS has to support
50 MHz BS channel bandwidth.
For Wide Area BS, EISREFSENS_50M is an integer value in the range -96 to -119 dBm. The specific value is declared by
the vendor.
For Medium Range BS, EISREFSENS_50M is an integer value in the range -91 to -114 dBm. The specific value is declared
by the vendor.
For Local Area BS, EISREFSENS_50M is an integer value in the range -86 to -109 dBm. The specific value is declared by
the vendor.

10.5.1.1 General
OTA Adjacent channel selectivity (ACS) is a measure of the receiver's ability to receive an OTA wanted signal at its
assigned channel frequency in the presence of an OTA adjacent channel signal with a specified centre frequency offset
of the interfering signal to the band edge of a victim system.
The wanted and interfering signals apply to each supported polarization, under the assumption of polarization match.
The throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel.
For FR1 except for band n104 , the OTA wanted and the interfering signal are specified in table 10.5.1.2-1 and table

and table 10.5.1.2-2 for OTA ACS. The reference measurement channel for the OTA wanted signal is further specified
in annex A.1. The characteristics of the interfering signal is further specified in annex D.
The OTA ACS requirement is applicable outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth. The OTA
interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth edges.
For RIBs supporting operation in non-contiguous spectrum within any operating band, the OTA ACS requirement shall
apply in addition inside any sub-block gap, in case the sub-block gap size is at least as wide as the NR interfering signal
in table 10.5.1.2-2. The OTA interfering signal offset is defined relative to the sub-block edges inside the sub-block gap.
For multi-band RIBs, the OTA ACS requirement shall apply in addition inside any Inter RF Bandwidth gap, in case the
Inter RF Bandwidth gap size is at least as wide as the NR interfering signal in table 10.5.1.2-2. The interfering signal
offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges inside the Inter RF Bandwidth gap.

10.5.2.1 General
The OTA in-band blocking characteristics is a measure of the receiver's ability to receive a OTA wanted signal at its
assigned channel in the presence of an unwanted OTA interferer, which is an NR signal for general blocking or an NR
signal with one RB for narrowband blocking.
- when the wanted signal is based on EISREFSENS: the AoA of the incident wave of a received signal and the
interfering signal are within the OTA REFSENS RoAoA.
- when the wanted signal is based on EISminSENS: the AoA of the incident wave of a received signal and the
interfering signal are within the minSENS RoAoA.
The wanted and interfering signals apply to each supported polarization, under the assumption of polarization match.
The throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channel, with OTA wanted
and OTA interfering signal specified in tables 10.5.2.2-1, table 10.5.2.2-2 and table 10.5.2.2-3 for general OTA and
narrowband OTA blocking requirements. Narrowband blocking requirements are not applied for band n104. The
reference measurement channel for the OTA wanted signal is identified in clause 10.3.2 and are further specified in
annex A.1. The characteristics of the interfering signal is further specified in annex D.

3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 268 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
The OTA in-band blocking requirements apply outside the Base Station RF Bandwidth or Radio Bandwidth. The
interfering signal offset is defined relative to the Base Station RF Bandwidth edges or Radio Bandwidth edges.
For BS type 1-O the OTA in-band blocking requirement shall apply in the in-band blocking frequency range, which is
from FUL,low - ΔfOOB to FUL,high + ΔfOOB, excluding the downlink frequency range of the FDD operating band. The ΔfOOB
for BS type 1-O is defined in table 10.5.2.2-0 except for band n104 and 10.5.2.2-0a for band n104.
For band n104, ΔfOOB for BS type 1-O is defined in table 10.5.2.2-0a.
Table 10.5.2.2-0a: ΔfOOB offset for NR operating bands for band n104

11.1 General
11.1.1 Scope and definitions
Radiated performance requirements specify the ability of the BS type 1-O or BS type 2-O to correctly demodulate
radiated signals in various conditions and configurations. Radiated performance requirements are specified at the RIB.
Radiated performance requirements for the BS are specified for the fixed reference channels defined in annex A and the
propagation conditions in annex G. The requirements only apply to those FRCs that are supported by the BS.
The radiated performance requirements for BS type 1-O and for the BS type 2-O are limited to two OTA demodulation
branches as described in clause 11.1.2. Conformance requirements can only be tested for 1 or 2 demodulation branches
depending on the number of polarizations supported by the BS, with the required SNR applied separately per
polarization.
NOTE 1: The BS can support more than 2 demodulation branches, however OTA conformance testing can only be
performed for 1 or 2 demodulation branches.
Unless stated otherwise, radiated performance requirements apply for a single carrier only. Radiated performance
requirements for a BS supporting CA are defined in terms of single carrier requirements.
For BS type 1-O in FDD operation the requirements in clause 8 shall be met with the transmitter units associated with
the RIB in the operating band turned ON.
NOTE 2: BS type 1-O in normal operating conditions in FDD operation is configured to transmit and receive at the
same time. The transmitter unit(s) associated with the RIB may be OFF for some of the tests.
In tests performed with signal generators a synchronization signal may be provided from the BS to the signal generator,
to enable correct timing of the wanted signal.
Whenever the "RX antennas" term is used for the radiated performance requirements description, it shall refer to the
demodulation branches (i.e. not physical antennas of the antenna array).
The SNR used in this clause is specified based on a single carrier and defined as:
SNR = S / N
Where:
N is the noise energy in a bandwidth corresponding to the transmission bandwidth over the duration where signal
energy exists on a RIB.
If the BS type 1-O, or the BS type 2-O uses polarization diversity and has the ability to maintain isolation between the
signals for each of the demodulation branches, then radiated performance requirements can be tested for up to two
demodulation branches (i.e. 1RX or 2RX test setups). When tested for two demodulation branches, each demodulation
branch maps to one polarization.
If the BS type 1-O, or the BS type 2-O does not use polarization diversity then radiated performance requirements can
only be tested for a single demodulation branch (i.e. 1RX test setup).

11.2.2.3.1 General
In the tests for UCI multiplexed on PUSCH, the UCI information only contains CSI part 1 and CSI part 2 information,
and there is no HACK/ACK information transmitted.
The CSI part 1 block error probability (BLER) is defined as the probability of incorrectly decoding the CSI part 1
information when the CSI part 1 information is sent as follow:
where:
- #(false CSI part 1) denotes the number of incorrectly decoded CSI part 1 information transmitted occasions
- #(CSI part 1) denotes the number of CSI part 1information transmitted occasions.
The CSI part 2 block error probability is defined as the probability of incorrectly decoding the CSI part 2 information
when the CSI part 2 information is sent as follows:
where:
- #(false CSI part 2) denotes the number of incorrectly decoded CSI part 2 information transmitted occasions
- #(CSI part 2) denotes the number of CSI part 2 information transmitted occasions.
The number of UCI information bit payload per slot is defined for two cases as follows:
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 296 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
The 7bits UCI case is further defined with the bitmap [c0 c1 c2 c3 c4] = [0 1 0 1 0] for CSI part 1 information, where c0
is mapping to the RI information, and with the bitmap [c0 c1] = [1 0] for CSI part2 information.
The 40bits UCI information case is assumed random information bits selection.
In both tests, PUSCH data, CSI part 1 and CSI part 2 information are transmitted simultaneously.

The false alarm requirement is valid for any number of receive antennas, for any channel bandwidth.
The false alarm probability is the conditional total probability of erroneous detection of the preamble (i.e. erroneous
detection from any detector) when input is only noise.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 321 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
11.4.2.2.1 General
The probability of detection is the conditional probability of correct detection of the preamble when the signal is
present. There are several error cases – detecting different preamble than the one that was sent, not detecting a preamble
at all or correct preamble detection but with the wrong timing estimation. For AWGN and TDLA30-300, a timing
estimation error occurs if the estimation error of the timing of the strongest path is larger than the time error tolerance
given in Table 11.4.2.2-1.
The performance requirements for high speed train (table 11.4.2.2.3-1) are optional and only applicable for FR2-1
below 30GHz.

Annex F (normative):
Relationship between EIRP based regulatory requirements
and 3GPP requirements
F.1 General
This annex applies to FR1 BS type 1-C, BS type 1-H and BS type 1-O.
Some regional requirements are defined per effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP), which is a combination of the
transmitted power (or in some cases spectral density) and the effective antenna gain which is a site-specific condition.
Such requirements may be applied per antenna, per cell, or per base station. It shall be noted that the definition of BS or
cell may differ between regulations.
The regulations are based on the assumption on BS type 1-C conducted requirements and a passive antenna and must be
interpreted for active antenna systems that have active beamforming. This annex describes how the power per connector
and sum power over TAB connectors can be related to such requirements.
Where the regulator prescribes a method for EIRP calculation, that method supersedes the proposed assessment in this
annex.
For the case when the base station manufacturer maximum output power or unwanted emission declarations apply per
connector, the maximum EIRP can be estimated using the following formulas:
EIRP per antenna (applicable for BS type 1-C): PEIRP = PTx + GAnt
EIRP per cell or per BS (applicable for BS type 1-H):PEIRPcell =10 * log (∑10PEIRPn/10)
In case the EIRP requirement is set per polarization, the summation shall be made per polarization.
- "PEIRP" is the resulting effective isotropic radiated power (or radiated power spectral density) resulting from the
power (or power spectral density) declared by the manufacturer in dBm (or dBm/measurement BW).
- "PTx" is the conducted power or power spectral density declared by the manufacturer in dBm (or
dBm/measurement BW).
- "GAnt" is the effective antenna gain, calculated as the antenna gain (dBi) minus the loss of the site infrastructure
connecting the BS antenna connector with the antenna (dB) for the applied frequency. The antenna nominal gain
is only applicable within a certain frequency range. For BS type 1-H, GAnt shall be an assumption on the gain of a
passive antenna system in order to provide a total power emissions level comparable to the level obtained when a
BS type 1-C is connected to a passive antenna. A typical example of a passive antenna gain, as used for BS type
1-O, is 17 dBi.
- "n" is the index number of the co-located antennas illuminating the same cell. PEIRPn is the PEIRP of the nth
antenna.
- "Cell" is in this annex used in the sense that it is the limited geographical area covered by the carrier transmitted
from one site.
ETSI
3GPP TS 38.104 version 18.7.0 Release 18 380 ETSI TS 138 104 V18.7.0 (2024-10)
In order to relate the EIRP values in the specifications to TRP, a fixed assumption has been made on the gain of a
typical passive BS antenna.
Thus, the maximum TRP can be estimated using the following formulas:
It is noted that the BS type 1-O architecture assumes that a BS subject to OTA requirements will have at least 8
antennas.
In case the TRP requirement is set per polarization, the summation shall be made per polarization.
- "PEIRP" is the effective isotropic radiated power (or radiated power spectral density) set in the regulation
(assuming a passive BS antenna) in dBm (or dBm/measurement BW).
- "GAnt" is the effective antenna gain, the antenna gain (dBi) is a fixed reference value of 17 dBi. Directivity value
should be used in above equations, however with all antenna losses are assumed zero then we can use effective
antenna gain.

sampling grid. The profile can be further characterized by the r.m.s. delay spread and the maximum delay
spanned by the taps.
- A combination of channel model parameters that include the Delay profile and the Doppler spectrum that is
characterized by a classical spectrum shape and a maximum Doppler frequency.
Step 3: Perform delay scaling according to the procedure described in clause 7.7.3 in TR 38.901 [16].
Step 4: Apply the quantization to the delay resolution 5 ns. This is done simply by rounding the tap delays to the
nearest multiple of the delay resolution.
Step 5: If multiple taps are rounded to the same delay bin, merge them by calculating their linear power sum.
Step 6: If there are more than 12 taps in the quantized model, merge the taps as follows
- Find the weakest tap from all taps (both merged and unmerged taps are considered)
- If there are two or more taps having the same value and are the weakest, select the tap with the smallest
delay as the weakest tap.
- When the weakest tap is the first delay tap, merge taps as follows
- Update the power of the first delay tap as the linear power sum of the weakest tap and the second delay
tap.
- When the weakest tap is the last delay tap, merge taps as follows
- Update the power of the last delay tap as the linear power sum of the second-to-last tap and the last tap.

- Otherwise
- For each side of the weakest tap, identify the neighbour tap that has the smaller delay difference to the
weakest tap.
- When the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on one side
equals the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on the other side.
- Otherwise, select the neighbour tap that has smaller delay difference for merging.
- To merge, the power of the merged tap is the linear sum of the power of the weakest tap and the selected
tap.
- When the selected tap is the first tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the first tap. The
weakest tap is removed.
- When the selected tap is the last tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the last tap. The
weakest tap is removed.
- Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is based on the average delay of the weakest tap and selected
tap. If the average delay is on the sampling grid, the location of the merged tap is the average delay.
Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is rounded towards the direction of the selected tap (e.g. 10 ns
& 20 ns 15 ns, 10 ns & 25 ns 20 ns, if 25 ns had higher or equal power; 15 ns, if 10 ns had higher
power) . The weakest tap and the selected tap are removed.
Step 7: Round the amplitudes of taps to one decimal (e.g. -8.78 dB -8.8 dB)
Step 8: If the delay spread has slightly changed due to the tap merge, adjust the final delay spread by increasing
or decreasing the power of the last tap so that the delay spread is corrected.
Note 1: Some values of the delay profile created by the simplification steps may differ from the values in tables
G.2.1.1-2, G.2.1.1-3, G.2.1.1-4, G.2.1.2-2, G.2.1.2-3, G.2.1.2-4 and G.2.1.2-5 for the corresponding
model.
Note 2: For Step 5 and Step 6, the power values are expressed in the linear domain using 6 digits of precision.
The operations are in the linear domain.

For cases with more antennas at either gNB or UE or both, the channel spatial correlation matrix can still be expressed
as the Kronecker product of RU E and RgNB according to Rspat = RUE ⊗ RgNB .
The correlation matrices for high, medium and low correlation are defined in Table G.2.3.1.2-2, G.2.3.1.2-3 and
G.2.3.1.2-4 as below.
The values in Table G.2.3.1.2-2 have been adjusted for the 2x4 and 4x4 high correlation cases to insure the correlation
matrix is positive semi-definite after round-off to 4-digit precision. This is done using the equation:
Where the value "a" is a scaling factor such that the smallest value is used to obtain a positive semi-definite result. For
the 2x4 high correlation case, a=0.00010. For the 4x4 high correlation case, a=0.00012.
The same method is used to adjust the 4x4 medium correlation matrix in Table G.2.3.1.2-3 to insure the correlation
matrix is positive semi-definite after round-off to 4-digit precision with a =0.00012.

500km/h scenarios. For 350km/h scenarios, the Doppler shift was derived such that it corresponds to a velocity of
around 350km/h for band n1 for the 15kHz SCS, for band n77 for the 30kHz SCS, and for band n257 for the 120kHz
SCS. For 500km/h scenarios, the Doppler shift was derived such that it corresponds to a velocity of around 500km/h for
band n3 for the 15kHz SCS and for band n77 for the 30kHz SCS. However, the same Doppler shift requirement shall be
applied regardless of the frequency of operation of the basestation and thus for lower frequencies, the supported speed is
higher.
