Question: In a Multi-Standard Radio (MSR) Base Station (BS) conformance testing for UTRA, what is the primary objective when applying TC1 power allocation to multiple carriers?
Option 1: To set each carrier to its maximum possible power, regardless of the overall rated RAT output power.
Option 2: To allocate power dynamically based on traffic demand across different carriers.
Option 3: To ensure the sum of all carrier powers equals the manufacturer-declared rated RAT output power for UTRA, with each carrier set to the same power level.
Option 4: To prioritize power allocation to carriers with higher bandwidth allocations.
Explanation: The correct approach for TC1 power allocation in UTRA multicarrier scenarios is to distribute power evenly across all carriers so that their combined output matches the base station's rated output power as specified by the manufacturer, ensuring compliance with declared specifications.
