scope:

present document applies to the following radio equipment type: base stations for IMT-2000 CDMA Direct Spread (UTRA FDD). This radio equipment type is capable of operating in all or any part of the frequency bands given in table 1. Table 1: CDMA Direct Spread base station frequency bands Direction of transmission CDMA Direct Spread base station frequency bands Transmit 2 110 MHz to 2 170 MHz Receive 1 920 MHz to 1 980 MHz The present document covers requirements for UTRA FDD base stations for Release 99, 4 and 5, including base stations supporting HS-PDSCH transmission using QPSK and 16QAM modulation. It also covers Release 6 requirements for wide area base stations, medium range base stations and local area base stations. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE Directive) article 3.2, which states that "[ ] radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1] will apply to equipment within the scope of the present document.
