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 ETSI 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

Receive 3 410 MHz to 3 490 MHz
XXXII Transmit 1 452 MHz to 1 492 MHz
(see note)
Receive -
NOTE: The down link frequenc(ies) of this band are paired with the uplink frequenc(ies) of the other
FDD band (external) of the dual band configuration.

The present document covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations for 3GPP Releases 99, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and
11. This includes the requirements for BS operating bands from 3GPP Release 12. In addition, the present document
covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations in the operating bands specified in ETSI 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.

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.

NOTE: The down link frequenc(ies) of this band are paired with the uplink frequenc(ies) of the other
FDD band (external) of the dual band configuration.

The present document covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations for 3GPP Releases 99, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and
11. This includes the requirements for BS operating bands from 3GPP Release 12. In addition, the present document
covers requirements for UTRA FDD Base Stations in the operating bands specified in ETSI 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.
