For inter-band carrier aggregation with one component carrier per operating band and the uplink active in two E-UTRA
bands, the spectrum emission mask of the UE is defined per component carrier while both component carriers are active
and the requirements are specified in clause 4.2.3.1.2. If for some frequency spectrum emission masks of component
carriers overlap, then spectrum emission mask allowing higher power spectral density applies for that frequency. If for
some frequency a component carrier spectrum emission mask overlaps with the channel bandwidth of another
component carrier, then the emission mask does not apply for that frequency.

4.2.4 Transmitter Spurious Emissions
4.2.4.1 Transmitter spurious emissions for Single Carrier
Spurious emissions are emissions which are caused by unwanted transmitter effects such as harmonics emission,
parasitic emissions, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out-of-band emissions.
The spurious emission limits are specified in terms of general requirements in line with Recommendation ITU-R
SM.329-12 [i.4] and E-UTRA operating band requirement to address UE co-existence.
To improve measurement accuracy, sensitivity and efficiency, the resolution bandwidth may be smaller than the
measurement bandwidth. When the resolution bandwidth is smaller than the measurement bandwidth, the result should
be integrated over the measurement bandwidth in order to obtain the equivalent noise bandwidth of the measurement
bandwidth.
4.2.4.1.2 Limits
The spurious emission limits in table 4.2.4.1.2-2 apply for the frequency ranges that are more than ΔfOOB (MHz) from
the edge of the channel bandwidth shown in table 4.2.4.1.2-1.
The measured average power of spurious emission for general requirements shall not exceed the described values in
table 4.2.4.1.2-2.
The measured average power of spurious emission for E-UTRA operating band specific requirements to protected
bands shall not exceed the described values in tables 4.2.4.1.2-3 -to 4.2.4.1.2-6.

NOTE 1: For measurement conditions at the edge of each frequency range, the lowest frequency of the
measurement position in each frequency range should be set at the lowest boundary of the frequency
range plus MBW/2. The highest frequency of the measurement position in each frequency range should
be set at the highest boundary of the frequency range minus MBW/2. MBW denotes the measurement
bandwidth defined for the protected band.

assigned E-UTRA carrier used in the measurement due to 2 nd, 3rd or 4th harmonic spurious emissions. Due to spreading of
the harmonic emission the exception shall be allowed for the first 1 MHz frequency range immediately outside the harmonic
emission on both sides of the harmonic emission. This results in an overall exception interval centred at the harmonic
emission of (2 MHz + N x LCRB x 180 kHz), where N is 2, 3, 4 for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th harmonic respectively. The exception is
allowed if the measurement bandwidth (MBW) totally or partially overlaps the overall exception interval.

bands, the spurious emission limit in table 4.2.4.2.2-2 apply for the frequency ranges that are more than fOOB as defined
in table 4.2.4.1.2-1 away from edges of the assigned channel bandwidth on a component carrier. If for some frequency a
spurious emission limit of individual component carrier overlaps with the spectrum emission mask or channel
bandwidth of another component carrier then it does not apply.
NOTE 2: For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to two E-UTRA bands the limits in
table 4.2.4.2.2-2 could be verified by measuring spurious emissions at the specific frequencies where
second and third order intermodulation products generated by the two transmitted carriers can occur; in
that case, the limits for remaining applicable frequencies in table 4.2.4.2.2-2 would be considered to be
verified by the measurements verifying the one uplink inter-band CA spurious emission limit.
For combinations of intra-band and inter-band carrier aggregation with three uplink component carriers (up to two
contiguously aggregated carriers per band), the spurious emission limit is defined as follows. For the E-UTRA band
supporting one component carrier the limits in table 4.2.4.2.2-2 apply for frequency ranges that are more than fOOB
(MHz) from the edges of assigned channel bandwidth as defined in table 4.2.4.1.2-1. For the E-UTRA band supporting
two contiguous component carriers the limits in table 4.2.4.2.2-2 apply for frequency ranges that are more than fOOB
(MHz) from the edges of assigned aggregated channel bandwidth as defined in table 4.2.4.2.2-1. If for some frequency a
spurious emission limit of a single component carrier or two contiguous component carriers overlap with the spurious
emission limit or channel bandwidth of another component carrier or two contiguously aggregated carriers then it does
not apply.
For the specified intra-band contiguous CA configurations for co-existence with protected bands, the measured average
power of spurious emission, shall not exceed the described value in table 4.2.4.2.2-3.

permitted for each assigned E-UTRA carrier used in the measurement due to 2 nd, 3rd, 4th [or 5th] harmonic
spurious emissions. In case the exceptions are allowed due to spreading of the harmonic emission the exception is
also allowed for the first 1 MHz frequency range immediately outside the harmonic emission on both sides of the
harmonic emission. This results in an overall exception interval centred at the harmonic emission of (2 MHz + N x
LCRB x 180 kHz), where N is 2, 3 or 4 for the 2nd, 3rd or 4th harmonic respectively. The exception is allowed if the
measurement bandwidth (MBW) totally or partially overlaps the overall exception interval.

For intra-band non-contiguous carrier aggregation when all sub-blocks consist of one component carrier, the UTRA
Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (UTRAACLR) is the ratio of the sum of the filtered mean powers centred on the
assigned sub-block frequencies to the filtered mean power centred on an adjacent(s) UTRA channel frequency.
UTRAACLR1/2 limits are applicable for all sub-blocks and are specified in table 4.2.11.2.2-2. UTRA ACLR1 is required to

5 Testing for compliance with technical requirements
5.1 Environmental conditions for testing

Tests defined in the present document shall be carried out at representative points within the boundary limits of the
declared operational environmental profile.
Where technical performance varies subject to environmental conditions, tests shall be carried out under a sufficient
variety of environmental conditions (within the boundary limits of the declared operational environmental profile) to
give confidence of compliance for the affected technical requirements.
Normally it should be sufficient for all tests to be conducted using normal test conditions except where otherwise stated.
For guidance on the use of other conditions to be used in order to show compliance reference can be made to ETSI
TS 136 521-1 [1], clause F.1.1.
For each operating frequency band of the UE, the tests in the present document are performed with appropriate
frequencies defined in ETSI TS 136 508 [2].
5.2 Interpretation of the measurement results

The interpretation of the results recorded in a test report for the measurements described in the present document shall
be as follows:
 the measured value related to the corresponding limit will be used to decide whether an equipment meets the
requirements of the present document;
 the value of the measurement uncertainty for the measurement of each parameter shall be included in the test
report.
For the test methods, according to the present document, the measurement uncertainty figures shall be calculated and
shall correspond to an expansion factor (coverage factor) k = 1,96 (which provide confidence level of respectively 95 %
in the case where the distributions characterizing the actual measurement uncertainties are normal (Gaussian)).
Principles for the calculation of measurement uncertainty are contained in ETSI TR 100 028 [i.5], in particular in
annex C of the ETSI TR 100 028-2 [i.5]. For guidance on other measurement conditions reference can be made to

Annex B (normative):
Environmental profile
B.1 General
B.1.1 Introduction
This annex specifies the environmental profile of the UE.
B.1.2 Temperature
The UE shall fulfil all the requirements in the full temperature range of:
Table B.1.2-1: Temperature Test Environment

+15 °C to +35 °C For normal conditions (with relative humidity up to 75 %)
-10 °C to +55 °C For extreme conditions (see IEC 60068-2-1 [4] and IEC 60068-2-2 [5])
Outside this temperature range the UE, if powered on, shall not make ineffective use of the radio frequency spectrum.
In no case shall the UE exceed the transmitted levels as defined in ETSI TS 136 101 [3] for extreme operation.
The normative reference for this requirement is ETSI TS 136 101 [3], clause E.1.
Some tests are performed also in extreme temperature conditions. These test conditions are denoted as TL (Temperature
Low, -10 °C) and TH (Temperature High, +55 °C).
B.1.3 Voltage
The UE shall fulfil all the requirements in the full voltage range, i.e. the voltage range between the extreme voltages.
The manufacturer shall declare the lower and higher extreme voltages and the approximate shutdown voltage. For the
equipment that can be operated from one or more of the power sources listed below, the lower extreme voltage shall not
be higher and the higher extreme voltage shall not be lower than that specified below.
Table B.1.3-1: Voltage Test Environment

Power source Lower extreme Higher extreme Normal conditions
Voltage voltage voltage
AC mains 0,9  nominal 1,1  nominal nominal
Regulated lead acid battery 0,9  nominal 1,3  nominal 1,1  nominal
Non regulated batteries:
Leclanché 0,85  nominal Nominal Nominal
Lithium 0,95  nominal 1,1  Nominal 1,1  Nominal
Mercury/nickel and cadmium 0,90  nominal Nominal
Outside this voltage range the UE if powered on, shall not make ineffective use of the radio frequency spectrum. In no
case shall the UE exceed the transmitted levels as defined in ETSI TS 136 101 [3] for extreme operation. In particular,
the UE shall inhibit all RF transmissions when the power supply voltage is below the manufacturer declared shutdown
voltage.
The normative reference for this requirement is ETSI TS 136 101 [3], clause E.2.
Some tests are performed also in extreme voltage conditions. These test conditions are denoted as VL (Lower extreme
Voltage) and VH (Higher extreme Voltage).
ETSI
139 ETSI EN 301 908-13 V13.1.1 (2019-11)
B.1.4 Test environment

Where a normal environment is required then the normal conditions shown in clauses B.1.2 and B.1.3 shall be applied.
Where an extreme environment is required then the various combinations of extreme temperatures together with the
extreme voltages shown in clauses B.1.2 and B.1.3 shall be applied. The combinations are:
 Low extreme Temperature/Low extreme Voltage (TL/VL);
 Low extreme Temperature/High extreme Voltage (TL/VH);
 High extreme Temperature/Low extreme Voltage (TH/VL);
 High extreme Temperature/High extreme Voltage (TH/VH).

Annex C (informative):
Recommended maximum measurement uncertainty
For the test methods, according to the present document, the measurement uncertainty figures are calculated using
expansion factors as described in clause 5.2. The recommended maximum uncertainty values in table C-1 is based on
such expansion factors.
Table C-1: Maximum uncertainty of the test system

Parameter Conditions Test system
uncertainty
Transmitter maximum output power ±0,7 dB
Transmitter spectrum emissions mask ±1,5 dB
Transmitter spurious emissions 9 kHz < f ≤ 4 GHz ±2,0 dB
4 GHz < f ≤ 12,75 GHz ±4,0 dB
Transmitter Minimum output power ±1,0 dB
Receiver Adjacent Channel Selectivity (ACS) ±1,1 dB
Receiver Blocking characteristics 1 MHz < finterferer ≤ 3 GHz ±1,3 dB
3 GHz < finterferer ≤ 12,75 GHz ±3,2 dB
Receiver spurious response 1 MHz < finterferer ≤ 3 GHz ±1,3 dB
3 GHz < finterferer ≤ 12,75 GHz ±3,2 dB
Receiver intermodulation characteristics ±1,4 dB
Receiver spurious emissions 30 MHz ≤ f ≤ 4,0 GHz ±2,0 dB
4 GHz < f ≤ 12,75 GHz ±4,0 dB
Transmitter adjacent channel leakage power ratio - ±0,8 dB
Receiver Reference Sensitivity Level f ≤ 4,0 GHz ±0,7 dB
4 GHz < f ≤ 12,75 GHz ±1,0 dB
NOTE 1: For RF tests it should be noted that the uncertainties in table C-1 apply to the test system operating into a
nominal 50 Ω load and do not include system effects due to mismatch between the EUT and the test system.
NOTE 2: If the test system for a test is known to have a measurement uncertainty greater than that specified in table C-1,
this equipment can still be used provided that an adjustment is made as follows:
any additional uncertainty in the test system over and above that specified in table C-1 should be used to
tighten the test requirements - making the test harder to pass (for some tests, e.g. receiver tests, this may
require modification of stimulus signals). This procedure will ensure that a test system not compliant with
table C-1 does not increase the probability of passing an EUT that would
otherwise have failed a test if a test system compliant with table C-1 had been used.
