Introduction
The present document is part of a set of standards developed by ETSI and is designed to fit in a modular structure to
cover all radio and telecommunications terminal equipment within the scope of the R&TTE Directive [i.2]. The
modular structure is shown in EG 201 399 [i.3].

1 Scope
The present document applies to the following {radio}{telecommunications terminal} equipment types:
1) Stations for IMT 2000 CDMA Direct Spread (UTRA FDD).
This radio equipment type is capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given in table 1-1.
Table 1-1: UTRA FDD Base Station operating bands
UTRA FDD Direction of transmission UTRA FDD Base Station operating bands
band
I Transmit 2 110 MHz to 2 170 MHz
Receive 1 920 MHz to 1 980 MHz
III Transmit 1 805 MHz to 1 880 MHz
Receive 1 710 MHz to 1 785 MHz
VII Transmit 2 620 MHz to 2 690 MHz
Receive 2 500 MHz to 2 570 MHz
VIII Transmit 925 MHz to 960 MHz
Receive 880 MHz to 915 MHz
XV Transmit 2 600 MHz to 2 620 MHz
Receive 1 900 MHz to 1 920 MHz
XVI Transmit 2 585 MHz to 2 600 MHz
Receive 2 010 MHz to 2 025 MHz
XX Transmit 791 MHz to 821 MHz
Receive 832 MHz to 862 MHz
XXII Transmit 3 510 MHz to 3 590 MHz
Receive 3 410 MHz to 3 490 MHz

The present document covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations for 3GPP Releases 99, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.
In addition, the present document covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations in the operating bands specified in
TS 102 735 [i.4].
The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [i.2] (R&TTE Directive), Article 3.2,
which states that "…. radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to
terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference".
In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements
under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive may apply to equipment within the scope of the present
document.
NOTE: A list of such ENs is included on the web site http://www.newapproach.org.

3 Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply:
ancillary equipment: equipment (apparatus) used in connection with a Base Station
NOTE: This is considered as an ancillary equipment (apparatus) if:
the equipment is intended for use in conjunction with a BS to provide additional operational and/or
control features to the radio equipment, (e.g. to extend control to another position or location);
the equipment cannot be used on a standalone basis to provide user functions independently of a
BS; and
the BS to which it is connected, is capable of providing some intended operation such as
transmitting and/or receiving without the ancillary equipment (i.e. it is not a sub-unit of the main
equipment essential to the main equipment basic functions).
Base Station class: wide area Base Station, medium range Base Station, local area Base Station or home Base Station,
as declared by the manufacturer
chip rate: rate of "chips" (modulated symbols after spreading) per second
NOTE: The UTRA FDD chip rate is 3,84 Mchip/s.
downlink operating band: part of the operating band designated for downlink (BS transmit)
environmental profile: range of environmental conditions under which equipment, within the scope of the present
document, is required to comply with the provisions of the present document
home Base Station: Base Stations characterized by requirements derived from femtocell scenarios
local area Base Station: Base Stations characterized by requirements derived from picocell scenarios with a BS to
