14.5.1.2.1 Definition
The adjacent channel selectivity is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted modulated signal without exceeding a given degradation due to the presence of an unwanted signal in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity, which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause.

51.010-1
14.5.1.2.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a TCH/AFS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 12.2 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the TCH (wanted signal).

14.5.1.2.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set according to the specified reference interference ratio (‑9 dB for 200 kHz offset), meaning 9 dB above that of the wanted signal. b) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. c) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the TCH/AFS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. e) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 200 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set according to the specified reference interference ratio (‑9 dB-3 dB for 200 kHz offset), meaning 12 dB above that of the wanted signal. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 7.95 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to 3 dB below the reference interference ratio ((‑41 dB ‑ 3 dB) for 400 kHz offset), meaning 44 dB above that of the wanted signal. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 5.9 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to 3 dB below the reference interference ratio ((‑41 dB ‑ 3 dB) for 400 kHz offset), meaning 44 dB above that of the wanted signal. j) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 4.75 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Pre Rel-5 MS Maximum: 16 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 42 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 7 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Rel-5 onwards MS Maximum: 23 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 125 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 17 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900).

14.5.1.2.5 Test requirements
Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of the limit lines refer to Annex 6.2 Wrong decision risk F for one single error ratio test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed.

In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made. The error rates measured for different channels and under the different propagation conditions shall be tested according to the values given in table 14-57 or 14-58. Adjacent channel rejection tests with a frequency condition noted as "@‑ndB" are performed for an interference ratio n dB below the reference interference ratio (see 3GPP TS 05.05). Where an entry in the table is ‘-‘, this combination should not be tested.

The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity, which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause. 14.5.1.2a.2 Conformance requirement 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.3 Table 6.3-1a: Reference interference ratio requirements in adjacent channels for Packet-switched (Normal symbol-rate), Enhanced circuit-switched data, Wideband AMR and 8-PSK modulated AMR channels, speech and associated control channels in VAMOS mode, TIGHTER – MS Modulation of wanted signal GMSK 8-PSK 16-QAM 32-QAM AQPSK for adjacent (200 kHz) interference C/Ia1 = C/Ic ‑ 18 dB, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2l for speech, see tables 2g, 2i, 2n and 2w for other channels, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2aa and 2ab for adjacent (400 kHz) interference C/Ia2 = C/Ic ‑ 50 dB C/Ic - 50 dB C/Ic - 48 dB C/Ic - 48 dB [Note 1] for adjacent (600 kHz) interference C/Ia3 = C/Ic ‑ 58 dB C/Ic - 58 dB NOTE 1: The adjacent channel interference @ 400 kHz requirement (C/Ia2) does not apply to channels in VAMOS mode. NOTE: The C/Ia3 figure is given for information purposes and will not require testing. It was calculated for the case of an equipment with an antenna connector, operating at output power levels of +33 dBm and below. Rejection of signals at 600 kHz is specified in subclause 5.1. 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.4 For all adjacent channel (200 kHz) requirements specified in table 2af for TIGHTER MS, the wanted signal level shall be: -75 dBm + Iar + Corr, where: Iar = the adjacent channel (200 kHz) interference ratio according to table 2af Corr = the correction factor for reference performance according to table 6.2-4. 14.5.1.2a.3 Test purpose 1. For TCH/AFS FER, MS shall meet the reference interference performance mentioned in 3GPP TS 45.005 sub clause 6.3.3, for adjacent-channel interference ratio mentioned in table 2af according to propagation conditions. 2. At reference adjacent-channel interference, the TCH/AFS class Ib BER shall meet the reference interference performance of table 2af in 3GPP TS 45.005. 14.5.1.2a.4 Method of test 14.5.1.2a.4.1 Initial conditions A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a TCH/AFS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 12.2 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the TCH (wanted signal). 14.5.1.2a.4.2 Procedure a) The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh no FH. b) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set according to the specified reference interference ratio as in table 2af. c) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. d) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the TCH/AFS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. e) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 7.95 kbit/s and steps c) to e) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to 3 dB below the reference interference ratio ((‑41 dB ‑ 3 dB) for 400 kHz offset), meaning 44 dB above that of the wanted signal. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 5.9 kbit/s and steps c) to e) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to 3 dB below the reference interference ratio ((‑41 dB ‑ 3 dB) for 400 kHz offset), meaning 44 dB above that of the wanted signal. j) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 4.75 kbit/s and steps c) to e) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 23 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 125 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 17 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). 14.5.1.2a.5 Test requirements Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit.

14.5.1.3.1 Definition
The adjacent channel selectivity is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted modulated signal without exceeding a given degradation due to the presence of an unwanted signal in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause.

14.5.1.3.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a TCH/AHS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 7,4 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the TCH (wanted signal).

51.010-1
14.5.1.3.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to 3 dB above the reference interference ratio (‑9 dB + 3 dB), meaning that the amplitude of the interferer is set to 6 dB above that of the wanted signal. b) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. c) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the TCH/AHS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib and class II, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib and class II, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. e) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 200 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to 3 dB above the reference interference ratio (‑9 dB + 3 dB), meaning that the amplitude of the interferer is set to 6 dB above that of the wanted signal. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6.7 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to the reference interference ratio (‑41 dB for 400 kHz offset), meaning 41 dB above that of the wanted signal. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 5.15 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to the reference interference ratio (‑41 dB for 400 kHz offset), meaning 41 dB above that of the wanted signal. j) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 4.75 kbit/s and steps b) to d) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Pre Rel-5 MS Maximum: 27 minutes (GSM850), 26 minutes (GSM900), 14 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 27 minutes (GSM850), 26 minutes (GSM900), 13 minutes (DCS1800), 12 minutes (PCS1900). Rel-5 onwards MS Maximum: 27 minutes (GSM850), 26 minutes (GSM900), 15 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 27 minutes (GSM850), 26 minutes (GSM900), 13 minutes (DCS1800), 12 minutes (PCS1900).

14.5.1.3.5 Test requirements
Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of the limit lines refer to Annex 6.2 Wrong decision risk F for one single error ratio test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed.

In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made. The error rates measured for different channels and under the different propagation conditions shall be tested according to the values given in table 14-60 or 14-61. Adjacent channel rejection tests with a frequency condition noted as "@+ndB" are performed for an interference ratio n dB above the reference interference ratio (see 3GPP TS 05.05).

The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause. 14.5.1.3a.2 Conformance requirement 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.3 Table 6.3-1a: Reference interference ratio requirements in adjacent channels for Packet-switched (Normal symbol-rate), Enhanced circuit-switched data, Wideband AMR and 8-PSK modulated AMR channels, speech and associated control channels in VAMOS mode, TIGHTER – MS Modulation of wanted signal GMSK 8-PSK 16-QAM 32-QAM AQPSK for adjacent (200 kHz) interference C/Ia1 = C/Ic ‑ 18 dB, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2l for speech, see tables 2g, 2i, 2n and 2w for other channels, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2aa and 2ab for adjacent (400 kHz) interference C/Ia2 = C/Ic ‑ 50 dB C/Ic - 50 dB C/Ic - 48 dB C/Ic - 48 dB [Note 1] for adjacent (600 kHz) interference C/Ia3 = C/Ic ‑ 58 dB C/Ic - 58 dB NOTE 1: The adjacent channel interference @ 400 kHz requirement (C/Ia2) does not apply to channels in VAMOS mode. NOTE: The C/Ia3 figure is given for information purposes and will not require testing. It was calculated for the case of an equipment with an antenna connector, operating at output power levels of +33 dBm and below. Rejection of signals at 600 kHz is specified in subclause 5.1. 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.4 For all adjacent channel (200 kHz) requirements specified in table 2af for TIGHTER MS, the wanted signal level shall be: -75 dBm + Iar + Corr, where: Iar = the adjacent channel (200 kHz) interference ratio according to table 2af Corr = the correction factor for reference performance according to table 6.2-4. 14.5.1.3a.3 Test purpose 1. For TCH/AHS FER, MS shall meet the reference interference performance mentioned in 3GPP TS 45.005 sub clause 6.3.3, for adjacent-channel interference ratio mentioned in table 2af according to propagation conditions. 2. At reference adjacent-channel interference, the TCH/AHS class Ib BER shall meet the reference interference performance of table 2af in 3GPP TS 45.005. 3. At reference adjacent-channel interference, the TCH/AHS class II BER shall meet the reference interference performance of table 2af in 3GPP TS 45.005. 14.5.1.3a.4 Method of test 14.5.1.3a.4.1 Initial conditions A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a TCH/AHS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power.

14.5.1.4.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a O-TCH/AHS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. RADIO_LINK_TIMEOUT is set to maximum. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 7,4 kbit/s. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the traffic channel (wanted signal). The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back, signalling erased frames (subclause 36).

14.5.1.4.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS produces an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal) at a nominal frequency 400KHz above that of the wanted signal. The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. b) The fading characteristic of the wanted and the interfering signals are set to TU50. c) The SS sets the level of the interfering signal to –27dBm. d) The SS sets the level of the wanted signal to –77dBm. e) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib. Bits are only taken from those frames not signalled as erased. f) The SS also determines the frame erasure events by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames and assuming a frame is received successfully, if it is not signalled as erased. g) The SS moves the interfering signal to a nominal frequency 200KHz below that of the wanted signal. h) The SS sets the level of the interfering signal to –73dBm. i) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6,7 kbit/s. j) The SS sets the level of the wanted signal to that indicated by Clev in table 14.5.1.4-2 or 14.5.1.4-3. k) Steps e) to f) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 19 minutes (GSM850), 19 minutes (GSM900), 19 minutes (DCS1800), 19 minutes (PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM850), 13 minutes (GSM900), 7 minutes (DCS1800), 6 minutes (PCS1900).

14.5.1.4.5 Test requirements
Testing should be performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with FER/BER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of limit lines refer to Annex 7. Wrong decision risk F for one single error rate test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. This parameter is the x‑ordinate in figure A7.1.3.1. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed.

In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made. The error rate measured in this test shall be tested according to the values given in tables 14.5.1.4-2 and 14.5.1.4.3 Table 14.5.1.4-2: Statistical test limits for T-GSM 810, GSM 850 and GSM 900 O-TCH/AHS adj-chan interference TU50 / No FH 0.8 to 0.9GHz Clev (dBm) Samples per second Orig.

14.5.1.5.1 Definition
The adjacent channel selectivity is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted modulated signal without exceeding a given degradation due to the presence of an unwanted signal in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity, which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause.

14.5.1.5.2 Conformance requirement
The reference interference performance (for co channel, C/Ic, or adjacent channel, C/Ia) in terms of frame erasure, bit error or residual bit error rates (whichever appropriate) is specified in table 2, according to the type of channel and the propagation condition. The actual interference ratio is defined as the interference ratio for which this performance is met. The actual interference ratio shall be less than a specified limit, called the reference interference ratio. For equipment supporting 8-PSK, and for MS indicating support for Downlink Advanced Receiver Performance – phase I (see 3GPP TS 24.008), the applicable requirements in table 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i, 2j, 2k, 2l, 2m, 2n and 2p apply for both GMSK and 8-PSK modulated interfering signals. The corresponding interference ratio for adjacent channel interference shall be: Modulation of wanted signal GMSK 8-PSK ‑ for adjacent (200 kHz) interference C/Ia1 = C/Ic ‑ 18 dB See table 2l for speech, see tables 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i and 2n for other channels ‑ for adjacent (400 kHz) interference C/Ia2 = C/Ic ‑ 50 dB C/Ic –50 dB ‑ for adjacent (600 kHz) interference C/Ia3 = C/Ic ‑ 58 dB C/Ic –58 dB NOTE: The C/Ia3 figure is given for information purposes and will not require testing. It was calculated for the case of an equipment with an antenna connector, operating at output power levels of +33 dBm and below. Rejection of signals at 600 kHz is specified in subclause 5.1. For 8-PSK modulated speech channels (AMR and AMR-WB), ECSD channels and 8-PSK modulated packet-switched channels, the wanted input signal level shall be: - 93 dBm + Ir + Corr, where: Ir = the interference ratio according to tables 2b and 2c for packets switched channels, tables 2d and 2e for ECSD and table 2k for speech (AMR and AMR-WB) and associated control channels. Corr = the correction factor for reference performance according to subclause 6.2 The levels shall be corrected by the following values: MS, 8-PSK modulated signals for GSM 400, GSM 900, GSM 850 and GSM 700 small MS 0 dB for other GSM 400, GSM 900, GSM 850 and GSM 700 MS -2 dB for DCS 1 800 and PCS 1900 class 1 or class 2 MS 0 dB for other DCS 1 800 and PCS 1900 MS -2 dB For GMSK modulated speech channels for wideband AMR, and for 8-PSK modulated speech channels for AMR, associated control channels and in band signalling, the minimum input signal level for which the reference performance shall be met is specified in table 1f and 1g respectively for normal BTS, according to the type of channel and the propagation condition. The reference performance shall be: ‑ for speech channels (O-TCH/AHSy, O-TCH/WFSy, O-TCH/WHSy) FER : £ 1% For other equipment than normal BTS, the levels shall be corrected by the values in the table below, describing the reference performance level correction factors for packet switched channels. Furthermore, for all classes of MS supporting 8-PSK speech channels, an additional +2 dB adjustment applies for 8-PSK modulated speech channels. For T-GSM 810 the requirements for GSM 900 shall apply, apart for those parameters for which a separate requirement exists. 3GPP 45.005 clauses 2, 6.2 and 6.3 NOTE: The tables 1 and 2 mentioned above can be found in 3GPP 45.005 clause 6.7

14.5.1.5.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a O-TCH/WFS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 15.85 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the O-TCH (wanted signal) with an amplitude of -93 dBm + Ir + Corr +2 dB, where Ir equals C/Ic in table.14.5.1.5-2/3 and the values for Corr are as stated above.

14.5.1.5.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency of 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to C/Ia1 from table 14.5.1.5-4. b) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. c) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the O-TCH/WFS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. e) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 200 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 12.65 kbit/s and the wanted signal level is set accordingly. The interference ratio is set to C/Ia1 from table 14.5.1.5-4 and steps b) to d) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 8.85 kbit/s and the wanted signal level is set accordingly. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic - 50dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal, (C/Ic is the co-channel interference ratio from table 14.5.1.5-2 and 14.5.1.5-3). Steps b) to d) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. j) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6.60 kbit/s and the wanted signal level is set accordingly. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic - 50dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal, (C/Ic is the co-channel interference ratio from table 14.5.1.5-2 and 14.5.1.5-3). Steps b) to d) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 14 minutes (GSM700, T-GSM 810, GSM850 and GSM900), 7 minutes (DCS1800 and PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM700, T-GSM 810, GSM850 and GSM900), 7 minutes (DCS1800 and PCS1900).

14.5.1.5.5 Test requirements
Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of the limit lines refer to Annex 6.2 Wrong decision risk F for one single error ratio test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed.

In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made. The error rates measured for different channels and under the different propagation conditions, under any combination of normal and extreme test voltages and ambient temperatures, shall be tested according to the values given in table 14.5.1.5-2 or 14.5.1.5-3. Adjacent channel rejection tests with a frequency condition noted as "@‑ndB" are performed for an interference ratio n dB below the reference interference ratio (see 3GPP TS 05.05).

14.5.1.6.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a O-TCH/WHS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. RADIO_LINK_TIMEOUT is set to maximum. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 8,85 kbit/s. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the traffic channel (wanted signal) with an amplitude of -93 dBm + Ir + Corr +2 dB, where Ir equals C/Ic in table. 14.5.1.6-2 and the values for Corr are as stated above. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back, signalling erased frames (subclause 36).

14.5.1.6.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS produces an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal) at a nominal frequency 400KHz above that of the wanted signal. The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. b) The fading characteristic of the wanted and the interfering signals are set to TU50. c) The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic - 50dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal, (C/Ic is the co-channel interference ratio from table 14.5.1.6-2). d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib. Bits are only taken from those frames not signalled as erased. e) The SS also determines the frame erasure events by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames and assuming a frame is received successfully, if it is not signalled as erased. f) The SS moves the interfering signal to a nominal frequency 200KHz below that of the wanted signal. g) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6,6 kbit/s. h) The SS sets the level of the wanted signal accordingly. i) The interference ratio is set to C/Ia1 from table 14.5.1.6-2. j) Steps d) to e) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 19 minutes (GSM850), 19 minutes (GSM900), 19 minutes (DCS1800), 19 minutes (PCS1900). Minimum: 14 minutes (GSM850), 13 minutes (GSM900), 7 minutes (DCS1800), 6 minutes (PCS1900).

14.5.1.6.5 Test requirements
Testing should be performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with FER/BER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of limit lines refer to Annex 7. Wrong decision risk F for one single error rate test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. This parameter is the x‑ordinate in figure A7.1.3.1. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed. Table 14.5.1.6-1: Minimum test times due to TU high fading conditions Half Rate 50 km/h Frequency 0,85 0,9 1,8 1,9 GHz Wavelength 0,35 0,33 0,17 0,16 M min test time 403 380 190 180 S 0:06:43 0:06:20 0:03:10 0:03:00 If the minimum test time due to multipath conditions exceeds the target test time, then the test runs for the minimum test time due to multipath conditions and the decision is made by comparing the result with the “derived test limit”. In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made. The error rate measured in this test shall be tested according to the values given in tables 14.5.1.6-2 and 14.5.1.6.3 Table 14.5.1.6-2: Statistical test limits for GSM 850 and GSM 900 O-TCH/WHS adj-chan interference TU high no FH C/Ia1 (dB) C/Ic (dB) Samples per second Orig.

14.5.1.7.1 Definition
The adjacent channel selectivity is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted modulated signal without exceeding a given degradation due to the presence of an unwanted signal in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel can be adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity, which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause.

At reference adjacent channel interference the TCH/WFS FER shall meet the reference performance stated in 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.2. The reference performance shall be: For speech channels (TCH/WHSy) FER £ 1% The performance requirements for GSM 400 and GSM 700 systems are as for GSM 900 in table 2j, except that the GSM 400 MS speed is doubled from that of GSM 900, e.g. TU50 becomes TU100, and the GSM 700 MS speed is increased by a factor of 1.2, e.g. TU50 becomes TU60. For packet switched and AMR-WB speech, GMSK modulated channels the wanted input signal level shall be: -93 dBm + Ir + Corr, where: Ir = the interference ratio according to table 2a and table 2j for the packet switched and AMR-WB speech channels respectively Corr = the correction factor for reference performance according to subclause 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.2. The corresponding interference ratio for adjacent channel interference shall be: Modulation of wanted signal GMSK ‑ for adjacent (200 kHz) interference C/Ia1 = C/Ic ‑ 18 dB ‑ for adjacent (400 kHz) interference C/Ia2 = C/Ic ‑ 50 dB For T-GSM 810 the requirements for GSM 900 shall apply, apart for those parameters for which a separate requirement exists.

A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on TCH/WFS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 12.65 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames.

683b5b8a98f7b1390ddd5516ea9247a2
51.010-1
14.5.1.7.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The interference ratio shall be set to (C/Ic – 18 dB) for adjacent channel interference of 200 kHz and (C/Ic - 50 dB) for adjacent channel interference of 400 kHz respectively. The co-channel interference values C/Ic can be found in table 14.5.1.7-2. The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency of 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 18 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (18 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. b) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. c) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the TCH/WFS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. e) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 200 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 18 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (18 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 8.85 kbit/s. The wanted signal level is set accordingly and steps b) to d) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 50 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6.60 kbit/s. The wanted signal level is set accordingly and steps b) to d) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 50 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. Steps b) to d) are repeated. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 5 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 23 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 2 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 4 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900).

14.5.1.7.5 Test requirements
Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of the limit lines refer to Annex 6.2 Wrong decision risk F for one single error ratio test: Fpass   =   Ffail   =   F and F   =   0.2% Wrong decision probability D per test step: Dpass   =   Dfail   =   D and D   =   0.0085% Parameters for limit lines: 1. D =  0.000085 wrong decision probability per test step. 2. M =   1.5 bad DUT factor 3. ne number of (error) events. 4. ns number of samples. The error rate is calculated from ne and ns. Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Testing under multipath and interference conditions requires that at least 990 wavelengths are crossed with the speed given in the fading profile. This leads to a minimum test time depending on the frequency range. No early pass/fail decision is allowed until the minimum test time due to fading has elapsed.

In this case early pass/fail decisions are obsolete. If the target test time exceeds the minimum test time due to multipath conditions early pass/fail decisions can be headed for in order to accelerate test execution. For an early decision a minimum number of (error) events is necessary. For an early pass decision ne   ≥   1 (inclusive artificial error) For an early fail decision ne   ≥   7 When the target test time has been reached the test is finished and a pass/fail decision can be made.

There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity, which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is not tested in this subclause. 14.5.1.7a.2 Conformance requirement 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.3 Table 6.3-1a: Reference interference ratio requirements in adjacent channels for Packet-switched (Normal symbol-rate), Enhanced circuit-switched data, Wideband AMR and 8-PSK modulated AMR channels, speech and associated control channels in VAMOS mode, TIGHTER – MS Modulation of wanted signal GMSK 8-PSK 16-QAM 32-QAM AQPSK for adjacent (200 kHz) interference C/Ia1 = C/Ic ‑ 18 dB, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2l for speech, see tables 2g, 2i, 2n and 2w for other channels, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2w, see table 2af for TIGHTER MS See table 2aa and 2ab for adjacent (400 kHz) interference C/Ia2 = C/Ic ‑ 50 dB C/Ic - 50 dB C/Ic - 48 dB C/Ic - 48 dB [Note 1] for adjacent (600 kHz) interference C/Ia3 = C/Ic ‑ 58 dB C/Ic - 58 dB NOTE 1: The adjacent channel interference @ 400 kHz requirement (C/Ia2) does not apply to channels in VAMOS mode. NOTE: The C/Ia3 figure is given for information purposes and will not require testing. It was calculated for the case of an equipment with an antenna connector, operating at output power levels of +33 dBm and below. Rejection of signals at 600 kHz is specified in subclause 5.1. 3GPP TS 45.005 subclause 6.3.4 For all adjacent channel (200 kHz) requirements specified in table 2af for TIGHTER MS, the wanted signal level shall be: -75 dBm + Iar + Corr, where: Iar = the adjacent channel (200 kHz) interference ratio according to table 2af Corr = the correction factor for reference performance according to table 6.2-4. 14.5.1.7a.3 Test purpose To verify that with an adjacent channel interferer at 200 kHz above and below the wanted signal the MS does not exceed conformance requirements in tables 14.5.1.7a-3/4 for three given codec rates under propagation condition TUhigh (for GSM 850, GSM 900, DCS 1800 and PCS 1900) with no frequency hopping, with an allowance for the statistical significance of the test. 14.5.1.7a.4 Method of Test 14.5.1.7a.4.1 Initial conditions A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on TCH/WFS with an ARFCN in the mid ARFCN range, power control level set to maximum power. The multirate configuration indicates the use of a codec set limited to 12.65 kbit/s. The SS commands the MS to create the traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the TCH (wanted signal) with an amplitude of -75 dBm + Iar + Corr, where Iar can be found in table.14.5.1.7a-2 and the values for Corr are as stated above. 14.5.1.7a.4.2 Procedure a) The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is set to TUHigh. In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set according to the specified reference interference ratio as in table 14.5.1.7a-2. b) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. c) The SS tests the frame erasure compliance for the TCH/WFS by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive frames. The number of frame erasure events is recorded. d) The SS determines the number of residual bit error events for the bits of the class Ib, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class Ib, Bits are only taken from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. e) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 200 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set according to the specified reference interference ratio as in table 14.5.1.7a-2. f) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 8.85 kbit/s. The wanted signal level is set accordingly and steps b) to d) are repeated. g) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 400 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 50 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. The co-channel interference values C/Ic can be found in table 14.5.1.7a-3. h) The SS uses a Channel Mode Modify procedure to change the active codec set to 6.60 kbit/s. The wanted signal level is set accordingly and steps b) to d) are repeated. i) The unwanted signal is moved to a nominal frequency of 400 kHz below the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. The interference ratio is set to (C/Ic – 50 dB), i.e. the amplitude of the unwanted signal is set to (50 dB – C/Ic) above that of the wanted signal. Steps b) to d) are repeated. The co-channel interference values C/Ic can be found in table 14.5.1.7a-3. Maximum/Minimum Duration of Test Maximum: 5 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 23 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). Minimum: 2 minutes (GSM850, GSM900), 4 minutes (DCS1800, PCS1900). 14.5.1.7a.5 Test requirements Testing the adjacent channel interference performance is performed using statistical methods that lead to an early pass/fail decision with test time significantly reduced for MS with BER/BLER not on the limit. For more information on statistical testing of BER/BLER performance, especially the definition of the limit lines refer to Annex 6.2 Limit checking Before limit checking is valid the minimum test time due to fading needs to be considered: Table 14.5.1.7a-1: Minimum test times due to TU high fading conditions Frequency 0,4 0,7 0,85 0,9 1,8 1,9 GHz Wavelength 0,75 0,43 0,35 0,33 0,17 0,16 m min test time 428 244 201 190 95 90 s 0:07:08 0:04:04 0:03:21 0:03:10 0:01:35 0:01:30 hh:mm:ss The error rates measured for different channels shall be tested according to the values given in table 14.5.1.7a-4 or 14.5.1.7a-5.

The adjacent channel selectivity is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted modulated signal without exceeding a given degradation due to the presence of an unwanted signal in the adjacent channel. The adjacent channel can be the adjacent in the RF spectrum or in time. There are therefore two types of adjacent channel selectivity: 1) Adjacent RF channel selectivity which is specifically tested in this subclause. 2) Adjacent Time Slot selectivity, which is implicitly tested in test 14.2.1.

A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure on a TCH/F in the mid ARFCN range. Any one of the supported TCH/(F9,6, F4,8, or F2,4) or TCH (Signalling Only) shall be used. The SS transmits the Standard Test Signal C1 on the TCH (wanted signal).
683b5b8a98f7b1390ddd5516ea9247a2
51.010-1
14.5.2.4.2 Procedure
a) In addition to the wanted signal, the SS transmits an independent, uncorrelated interfering signal, Standard Test Signal I1 (unwanted signal). The unwanted signal is continuous and has no fixed relationship with the bit transitions of the wanted signal. The fading characteristic of the wanted and the unwanted signal is TUhigh. The unwanted signal is transmitted at a nominal frequency 200 kHz above the nominal frequency of the wanted signal. Its amplitude is set to 9dB above that of the wanted signal. b) The SS sends a Layer 3 message which does not require a Layer 3 response from the MS. Due to the adjacent channel interference, the MS may not be able to acknowledge the Layer 2 frame. Each repeated L2 frame indicates a frame erasure event. The SS determines the number of frame erasure events during at least the minimum number of samples of FACCH/F frames. NOTE: These frames will not be consecutive but it is expected that the statistical significance of the tests will not be unduly degraded. c) The measurement of step b) is repeated with the unwanted signal on a frequency at the same displacement from, but below, the frequency of the wanted signal. d) The measurement of steps a) to c) is repeated for a displacement of the unwanted signal of 400 kHz, and with the amplitude of the unwanted signal 41 dB above the level of the wanted input signal. The fading characteristic of the unwanted signal is set to TUhigh. If, due to system simulator limitation, fading is not possible a static interferer may be used. Different test limits apply (see table 14-23). e) Steps a) to d) are repeated under extreme test conditions.

14.6.1.4.2 Procedure
a) The amplitude of the wanted signal is set to 4 dB above the reference sensitivity level (see table 14-24). b) The SS commands the MS to create the loop back facility signalling erased frames. c) The SS produces a static wanted signal, and two static interfering (unwanted) signals at the same time. There is no correlation in the modulation between the signals. The first interfering signal is on a frequency equal to the centre frequency of an ARFCN four above that of the receiver. This signal is static and unmodulated. The second interfering signal is on an ARFCN eight above that of the receiver. This signal is static, continuous and modulated by random data. The amplitude of both the interfering signals is set according to table 14-24. d) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. The SS tests the RBER compliance of class II bits by examining at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits. Bits only taken from those frames which do not signal frame erasure. The number of error events is recorded. e) The measurement of step d) is repeated with the two unwanted signals having frequencies corresponding to ARFCN four and eight below the ARFCN of the wanted signal. f) Steps b) to e), are repeated but with the receiver operating on an ARFCN in the Low ARFCN range. g) Steps b) to e), are repeated but with the receiver operating on an ARFCN in the High ARFCN range. h) Steps a) to g) are repeated under extreme test conditions.

It is applied in turn on the subset of frequencies calculated in step c) in the overall range 100 kHz to 12,75 GHz, where FB is an integer multiple of 200 kHz. However, frequencies in the range FR ±600 kHz are excluded. NOTE: Allowance must be made for possible spurious signals arising from the SS. These are particularly likely at sub harmonic frequencies nFB where n = 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. c) The frequencies at which the test is performed (adjusted to an integer multiple of 200 kHz channels most closely approximating the absolute frequency of the calculated blocking signal frequency) are the combined frequencies from i), ii) and iii) below:- i) The total frequency range formed by: GSM 400 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn +3,6 MHz) and Flo - (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn + 3,6 MHz). GSM 700 and T-GSM 810 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn +7,5 MHz) and Flo - (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn + 7,5 MHz).

NOTE 2: For an E-GSM 900 MS the level of the unwanted signal in the band 905 MHz to < 915 MHz is relaxed to 108 dBuVemf( ). NOTE 3: For a GSM 450 small MS the level of the unwanted signal in the band 450,4 MHz to < 457,6 MHz is relaxed to 108 dBuVemf( ). For a GSM 480 small MS the level of the unwanted signal in the band 478,8 MHz to < 486 MHz is relaxed to 108 dBuVemf( ). e) The SS compares the data of the signal that it sends to the MS with the signal which is looped back from the receiver after demodulation and decoding, and checks the frame erasure indication. The SS tests the RBER compliance for the bits of class II, by examining sequences of at least the minimum number of samples of consecutive bits of class II, where bits are taken only from those frames for which no bad frame indication was given. The number of error events is recorded. If a failure is indicated it is noted and counted towards the allowed exemption totals. In the case of failures discovered at the predicted frequencies at steps f ii), iii) or iv) the test is repeated on the adjacent channels ±200 kHz away. If either of these two frequencies fail then the next channel 200 kHz beyond is also tested. This process is repeated until all channels constituting the group of failures is known.

DCS 1 800: A maximum of twelve failures in the band 1 785 MHz to 1 920 MHz (which, if grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group). A maximum of 24 in the combined bands 100 kHz to 1 785 MHz and 1 920 MHz to 12,75 GHz (which, if below FR and grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group). PCS 1 900: A maximum of twelve failures in the band 1 910 MHz to 2 010 MHz (which, if grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group). A maximum of 24 in the combined bands 100 kHz to 1 910 MHz and 2 010 MHz to 12,75 GHz (which, if below FR and grouped, shall not exceed three 200 kHz channels per group). If the number of failures do not exceed the maximum allowed figures stated above, the test of 14.7.1.4 is repeated at the frequencies at which the failures occurred. The level of the unwanted signal is set to 70 dBVemf(  ) and the performance requirement is once again that stated in the table above.

14.7.2.4.2 Procedure
NOTE: To reduce the overall test time an optional pre-measurment to detect blocking events can be perfomed prior to the start of the test procedure. As an outcome of the pre-measurement the test is performed only for blocking event related frequencies.a) The SS sends a Layer 3 message which does not require a Layer 3 response from the MS. Due to interfering signals, the MS may not be able to acknowledge the Layer 2 frame. Frame erasures are indicated by repeated L2 frames. b) The SS is set to produce a TUhigh wanted signal and a static interfering signal at the same time. The SS sets the amplitude of the wanted signal to 4 dB above the reference sensitivity level. c) The unwanted signal is a C.W. signal (Standard test signal IO) of frequency FB. It is applied in turn on the subset of frequencies calculated at step f) in the overall range 100 kHz to 12,75 GHz, where FB is an integer multiple of 200 kHz. However, frequencies in the range FR ±600 kHz are excluded. NOTE: Allowance must be made for possible spurious signals arising from the SS. These are particularly likely at sub harmonic frequencies nFB where n = 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. d) The frequencies at which the test is performed (adjusted to an integer multiple of 200 kHz channels most closely approximating the absolute frequency of the calculated blocking signal frequency) are the combined frequencies from i), ii) and iii) which follow: i) The total frequency range formed by:- GSM 400 the frequencies between Flo + (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn + 3,6 MHz) and Flo - (IF1 + IF2 + ... + IFn + 3,6 MHz).

If a failure is indicated, it is noted and counted towards the allowed exemption total. In the case of failures discovered at the predicted frequencies at steps f ii), iii) or iv) the test is repeated on the adjacent channels ±200 kHz away. If either of these two frequencies fail then the next channel 200 kHz beyond is also be tested. This process is repeated until all channels constituting the group of failures is known.

14.7.3.1 Definition
Blocking is a measure of the ability of the receiver to receive a modulated wanted input signal in the presence of an unwanted input signal, on frequencies other than those of the spurious responses or the adjacent channels, without exceeding a given degradation.

14.7.3.2 Conformance requirement
1. The blocking characteristics of the receiver are specified separately for in-band and out-of-band performance as identified in 3GPP TS 05.05 subclause 5.1. The reference sensitivity performance as specified in table 1 of 3GPP TS 05.05 shall be met when the following signals are simultaneously input to the receiver: - a useful signal at frequency f0, 3 dB above the reference sensitivity level as specified in 3GPP TS 05.05 subclause 6.2; - a continuous, static sine wave signal at a level as in the table of 3GPP TS 05.05 subclause 5.1 and at a frequency (f) which is an integer multiple of 200 kHz. With the following exceptions, called spurious response frequencies: a) R-GSM 900 or ER-GSM 900: in band, for a maximum of six occurrences (which if grouped shall not exceed three contiguous occurrences per group); b) out of band, for a maximum of 24 occurrences (which if below f0 and grouped shall not exceed three contiguous occurrences per group). Where the above performance shall be met when the continuous sine wave signal (f) is set to a level of 70 dBµV (emf) (i.e. -43 dBm). 3GPP TS 05.05, subclause 5.1.

14.7.3.3 Test purpose
1. To verify that the in band blocking performance is met without exceeding the total number of allowed in band spurious responses. An allowance is made for the statistical significance of the test. 2. To verify that at selected out of band frequencies, the out of band blocking performance is met without exceeding the total number of allowed out of band spurious responses. An allowance is made for the statistical significance of the test. NOTE: Not all of the possible out of band frequencies are tested as this results in excessive test time. However, the total number of out of band spurious responses, specified in 3GPP TS 05.05, are allowed to ensure a fair test of the MS.

14.7.3.4.1 Initial conditions
A call is set up according to the generic call set up procedure, except the BCCH frequency list shall be empty, on a TCH with an arbitrary ARFCN in the range supported by the MS. The power control level is set to maximum power. The ARFCN of the BCCH shall be the same - or at an offset of +/- 2 channels, than that of the ARFCN for the TCH. The SS transmits Standard Test Signal C1 on the traffic channel. (TCH frequency FR). The SS commands the MS to create traffic channel loop back signalling erased frames.
