Study on UE support of regionally-defined subsets of an NR band
The present document captures the study on UE support of regionally-defined subsets of an NR band. In accordance with 3GPP specifications, a UE is required to support the entire frequency range of a band as defined by [2], [3], or [4]. However, it was found that for some bands, there may be regional regulatory restrictions to this frequency range in some countries. The scope of this study is to investigate the root causes that may require 3GPP specification changes to accommodate as well as to consider possible general solutions if needed.
