scope:

The present document covers the assessment for NR Integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and associated ancillary equipment in respect of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

The present document specifies the applicable test conditions, performance assessment and performance criteria for NR Integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and associated ancillary equipment.

Technical requirements related to the antenna and TAB connectors are not included in the present document. These are found in the relevant product standards [2, 24, 25].

The environment classification used in the present document refers to the residential, commercial and light industrial environment classification used in IEC 61000-6-1 [4], IEC 61000-6-3 [5] and IEC 61000-6-8 [26].

The EMC requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility for apparatus at residential, commercial and light industrial environments. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with low probability of occurrence.
