6.3.10.1.2.1 Co-existence studies for 1 UL/2 DL
The 2nd and 3rd order harmonics and IMD products caused in the BS by transmitting of Band 18 and restricted (703 – 733 MHz UL and 758 – 788 MHz DL) Band 28 DL carriers can be calculated as shown in Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-1 below: Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-1: Band 18 and restricted Band 28 DL harmonics and IMD products BS DL carriers f1_low f1_high f2_low f2_high DL frequency (MHz) 758 788 860 875 2nd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 1516 1576 1720 1750 3rd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 2274 2364 2580 2625 2nd order IMD products (f2_low – f1_high) (f2_high – f1_low) (f2_low + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 72 117 1618 1663 3rd order IMD products (f2_low – 2*f1_high) (f2_high – 2*f1_low) (2*f2_low – f1_high) (2*f2_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 641 716 932 992 3rd order IMD products (2*f1_low + f2_low) (2*f1_high + f2_high) (2*f2_low + f1_low) (2*f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 2376 2451 2478 2538 3rd order IMD products (f1_low – f2_high + f2_low) (f1_high + f2_high – f2_low) (f2_low – f1_high + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 743 803 830 905 3rd order IMD products (f1_low – max BW f2) (f1_high + max BW f2) (f2_low – max BW f1) (f2_high + max BW f1) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 743 803 850 885 It can be seen from Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-1 that the 2nd harmonics of BS transmitting in Band 18 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 3, 4, 9 and 10, and the 3rd harmonics of BS transmitting in Band 18 and restricted Band 28 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 30, 38, 40 and 41, while the 2nd IMD products caused by BS supporting CA of Band 18 and restricted Band 28 may fall into the BS receive band of Band 24, and the 3rd IMD products may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19, 20, 26, 28, 40, 41 and 44. Note that the calculation in Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-1 (except the last row) assumes the BS is transmitting with the whole 15 MHz DL frequency of Band 18 and the whole 30 MHz DL frequency of restricted Band 28. If the BS is only transmitting an up to 15 MHz DL in Band 18 and an up to 10 MHz DL in restricted Band 28 as stated in the WIDS, then the 3rd IMD products may only fall into the BS receive band of the Bands 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 20, 28, 40, 41 and 44 as shown in the last row in Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-1. Note that the 3rd IMD products will not fall into the BS receive frequency range within restricted Band 28, or the BS receive frequency range within Band 8 (900 – 915 MHz) that is allocated in Japan. Also the 3rd IMD products may only fall into the BS receive band of certain frequency range within Band 28 under the transmit configurations shown in Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-2 below. Table 6.3.10.1.2.1-2: Band (18 + 28) BS transmit configurations with 3rd IMD within Band 28 BS receive band Band 18 DL channel bandwidth (MHz) Band 28 DL channel bandwidth (MHz) Lower edge of Band 28 DL frequency block (MHz) Lower edge of IMD frequency limits (MHz) 15 5 or 10 758 – 762.9 743 – 747.9 It should be noted that Bands 4, 7, 10, 12, 13, 14, 17, 20, 24, 30, 38, 40 and 44 are not intended for use in the same geographical area as Bands 18 and 28, and the 3rd IMD products caused by BS supporting carrier aggregation of Band 18 and Band 28 will not fall into the BS receive frequency range within Band 8 that is allocated in Japan. Therefore, the focus here will be on the harmonics and IMD falling into Bands 3, 9, 28 and 41. With the performances of the current BS antenna system, transmit and receive path components, amplifiers, pre-distortion algorithms and filters, it is expected that the harmonics and IMD interference generated within the Band 3, 9 or 41 receiver would be well below the receiver noise floor eliminating the possibility of receiver desensitization, provided that Bands 18 and 28 BS transmitters do not share the same antenna with Band 3, 9 or 41 BS receiver. On the other hand, it is recommended that Bands 18 and 28 BS transmitters should not share the same antenna with Band 3, 9 or 41 BS receiver, or Band 28 BS receiver for the affected frequency ranges if the aforementioned BS transmit configurations are used, in order to prevent BS receiver desensitization, unless the antenna path meets very stringent harmonics and 3rd order PIM specification so that the harmonics and PIM will not cause Band 3, 9, 28 or 41BS receiver desensitization. 6.3.10.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values Given that CA_B18-B28 is low-low band combination, appropriate UE architecture would be quadplexer basis. As one can see in Figure 6.3.10.1.3-1, separation between Band 18 UL and Band 28 DL is only 12 MHz. In addition, Band 18 filter cannot provide steep attenuation toward lower frequency side. Therefore, it is expected that Band 28 UE would suffer from noise of Band 18 UL and we had considered that inter-band CA of this combo is almost impossible to keep commercial service of quality. Figure 6.3.10.1.3-1: Frequency range of Band 18 and Band 28 However, it is expected that Lower Duplexer of Band 28 DL can provide good blocking characteristic from unwanted signal of Band 18 UL because separation between them is more than twice (27 MHz) of upper duplexer. Operator A in the figure can fortunately use both Lower and Higher Duplexer from perspective of frequency assignment. Therefore, quadplexer to perform CA_B18-B28 is much preferable to be implemented by [Band 18] + [Band 28 Lower DUP] as indicated by red line in Figure 6.3.10.1.3-1. Values of ∆TIB and ∆RIB would be standardized on the basis of such architecture of quadplexer. For the reported IL values, additional IL values compared to single band operation could be assumed as shown in table 6.3.10.1.3-1: Table 6.3.10.1.3-1: Additional IL values compared to single band operation Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band Tx IL [dB] Rx IL [dB] 18 1.2 0.45 28 1.04 0.45 By convoluting above all of studies, values for ∆TIB and ∆RIB are specified as in Table 6.3.10.1.3-3 and 6.3.10.1.3-4.: Table 6.3.10.1.3-2: ΔTIB,c Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔTIB,c [dB] CA_18A-28A 18 0.6 28 0.5 Table 6.3.10.1.3-3: ΔRIB,c Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔRIB [dB] CA_18A-28A 18 0.2 28 0.2

6.3.10.1.4 Maximum sensitivity reduction for Band 28
When Band 28 DL is operated simultaneously with Band 18 UL there is a potential self-interference situation as Band 18 UL will become aggressor on Band 28 DL due to narrow frequency separation. Requirements like MSD should be specified for this interference. After intensive discussion in RAN4, required MSDs are specified in Table 6.3.10.1.4-1.

NOTE 2: Reference measurement channel is A.3.2 with one sided dynamic OCNG Pattern OP.1 FDD/TDD as described in Annex A.5.1.1/A.5.2.1 NOTE 3: The signal power is specified per port NOTE 4: No requirements apply when there is at least one individual RE within the uplink transmission bandwidth of the low band for which the 2nd transmitter harmonic is within the downlink transmission bandwidth of the high band. The reference sensitivity is only verified when this is not the case (the requirements specified in clause 7.3.1 of TS36.101 apply). NOTE 5: These requirements apply when there is at least one individual RE within the uplink transmission bandwidth of the low band for which the 3rd transmitter harmonic is within the downlink transmission bandwidth of the high band. NOTE 6: The requirements should be verified for UL EARFCN of the low band (superscript LB) such that in MHz and with the carrier frequency of the high band in MHz and the channel bandwidth configured in the low band. NOTE 7: Supported frequency range of Band 28 for this CA configuration is limited as specified for CA_18-28 in Table 5.5A-2 of TS36.101. This relaxation applies only when Band 18 is configured as UL. 6.4 Class A4.

6.4.1.2 BS co-existence studies for CA_2-4
Table 6.4.1.2-1 shows harmonics frequency limits and table 6.4.1.2-2 intermodulation products frequency limits for CA of Band 2 and Band 4, respectively. Table 6.4.1.2-1: DL harmonics frequency limits for CA of Band 2 and Band 4 BS DL carriers f1_low f1_high f2_low f2_high DL frequency (MHz) 1930 1990 2110 2155 2nd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 3860 to 3980 4220 to 4310 3rd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 5790 to 5970 6330 to 6465 As shown in table 6.4.1.2-1, no second and no third harmonics will fall to any 3GPP UL frequencies.

Third intermodulation products may fall to UL frequencies of Bands 1-4, 9-10, 23, 25, 30, 33, 35-37, 39 or 40. As third intermodulation products may fall to own receive block (both for Band 2 and Band 4, highlighted in table 6.4.1.2-2), the desensitisation may be an issue. Analysis in table 6.4.1.2-2 assumes BS is transmitting the whole DL frequency for both Band 2 and Band 4. Further analysis were made when two-tone third order intermodulation product will fall to own receive block for CC bandwidths agreed in the Work Item Description (WID): 5MHz, 10MHz and 15MHz for both operating bands plus 1.4 and 3MHz for Band 2. Two-tone third order intermodulation products were summarized in table 6.4.1-3 with assumptions shown in figure 6.4.1.2-1. Figure 6.4.1.2-1: Assumptions for third intermodulation products analysis Table 6.4.1.2-3: Two-tone third order IMD products frequency limits for CA of Band 2 and Band 4 Two-tone 3rd order IMD products IMD frequency range (MHz) 2*f1_low – f2_high 1705 + 2*c + d 2*f1_high – f2_low 1705 + 2*c + 2*a + b + d Taking into account CC bandwidths agreed in the WID, two-tone third order intermodulation product will fall to own receive block for CC1 and CC2 positions summarized in table 6.4.1.2-4. Considered scenarios are very pessimistic as studies are taking into account channel bandwidths. Taking into account transmission bandwidths (1.08, 2.7, 4.5, … MHz) the region where IMD would fall to receive band would be further reduced. Table 6.4.1.2-4: CC1 and CC2 positions for two-tone third order IMD product falling to own receive block CC1 bandwidth (a in MHz) CC2 bandwidth (b in MHz) CC1 and CC2 positions (c + d in MHz) 1.4 5 25 > c + d > 18.6 1.4 10 25 > c + d > 13.6 1.4 15 25 > c + d > 8.6 1.4 20 25 > c + d > 3.6 3 5 25 > c + d > 17 3 10 25 > c + d > 12 3 15 25 > c + d > 7 3 20 25 > c + d > 2 5 5 25 > c + d > 15 5 10 25 > c + d > 10 5 15 25 > c + d > 5 5 20 25 > c + d > 0 10 5 25 > c + d > 10 10 10 25 > c + d > 5 10 15 25 > c + d > 0 10 20 25 > c + d ≥ 0 15 5 25 > c + d > 5 15 10 25 > c + d > 0 15 15 25 > c + d ≥ 0 15 20 25 > c + d ≥ 0 20 5 25 > c + d > 0 20 10 25 > c + d ≥ 0 20 15 25 > c + d ≥ 0 20 20 25 > c + d ≥ 0 It is suggested BS transmitters supporting CA of Band 2 and Band 4 should not share the same antenna with Band 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 23, 25, 30, 33, 35-37, 39 or 40 BS receiver, unless the antenna path meets very stringent third order PIM specification so that the PIM will not cause Band 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 23, 25, 30, 33, 35-37, 39 or 40 BS receiver desensitization. 6.4.1.3 UE Co-existence studies for CA_2-4 The scope of the WID states that the specifications are done for 1 UL operation. Because of that IMD studies between the UL bands are not required for now. Study of UL 2nd and 3rd order harmonics frequencies is needed. Results of the harmonic study are presented in table 2.2-1. It can be observed that none of the 2nd or 3rd harmonic products fall into own DL bands. It can be noted that band 4 second harmonic extends to 3510 MHz which is the start frequency for band 22 and some harmonic power might land on band 22. Band 4 second harmonic also falls to band 42. Band 2 second harmonic falls to band 43.

As band 19 and band 21 are a low-middle band combination the harmonic frequencies are far away from the receive and transmit bands of interest in the DL and UL (see table 6.5.1.1.2-1).

As shown in table 6.5.2.1.2-1, the harmonic frequencies of band 1 and band 11 in UL are away from the receive bands of interest in the DL and we can conclude that there is no issue on UL harmonic interference.

On the other hand, the issue of possible desensitisation due to IMD fall down would happen whenever a BS supports these frequencies simultaneously, regardless of whether CA is supported or not. Thus this is not a CA specific issue and BS vendors are requested to configure a BS appropriately when the bands mentioned above are operated with Band 1 and 11. 6.5.2.1.3 ΔTIB,c and ΔRIB values RF parts simulation results are obtained from 3 manufacturers.

6.5.4.1.2 Co-existence studies for CA_7-22
Table 6.5.4.1.2-1 gives the intermodulation products for band 7 + band 22 CA with 2 DLs. For the 3-tone IMD analysis the maximum transmission as defined in table 6.5.4.1.1-1 is considered. None of the harmonics of one band fall into the receive band of the other. It can be seen in the table that 2nd order IMD products may fall into BS receive band 5, 6, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26 and 27. The 3rd order IMD products may fall into BS receive bands of 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, 22, 24, 25, 35, 38, 41, 42 and 43. However, when the impact of maximum bandwidth is considered, the 3rd order IMD products do not fall into the BS receive of Band 7 and 22. It should be noted that bands 6, 9, 18, 19, 24, 25, 35, 41 and 42 are not intended for use in the same geographical area (country) as the band combination Band 7 and Band 22. This leaves bands 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20, 22, 26, 38 and 43 to consider for IMD products. It is recommended that Bands 7 and 22 BS transmitters do not share the same antenna with band 2, 3, 5, 8, 20, 26, 38 and 43 BS receivers so that the antenna PIM will not cause Band 2, 3, 5, 8, 20, 26, 38 and 43 BS receiver desensitization.

7.2.1.1.2 Co-existence studies for CA_1-41
Table 7.2.1.1.2-1gives the intermodulation products for band 1 + band 41 CA with 2 DLs. For the IMD analysis the maximum transmission as defined in table 7.2.1.1.1-1 is considered. None of the harmonics of one band fall into the receive band of the other. The intermodulation products generated by two operating bands do not impact the own receiver since TDD BS cannot transmit and receive simultaneously in a single band. It can be seen in the table that 2nd order IMD products may fall into BS receive band 31. The 3rd order IMD products may fall into BS receive bands of 1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, 23, 24, 30, 33, 34, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 and 41. However, when the impact of maximum bandwidth is considered, the 3rd order IMD products do not fall into the BS receive of Band 1, 23, 30, 33, 34, 36, 37, 39, 40. It should be noted that Bands 4, 7, 10, 24, 31 and 38 are not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 1 and Band 41. This leaves bands 3, 9 and 41 to consider for IMD products. Currently Bands 3, and 9 are used in the same geographical area as Bands 1 and 41. It is recommended that Bands 1 and 41 BS transmitters do not share the same antenna with Band 3 or 9 BS receivers so that the antenna PIM will not cause Band 3 or 9 BS receiver desensitization. A TDD BS cannot transmit and receive simultaneously in a single band so the own B41 receiver is protected. However, it is not recommended that different band 41 operators share the same antenna as a Band 1 transmitter unless the operation is synchronized.

Note that the calculation in table 7.2.2.1.2-1 (except the last row) assumes the BS transmits the whole 60 MHz DL frequency of Band 1 and the whole 200 MHz DL frequency of Band 42. However even if the BS only transmits up to 20 MHz DL in Band 1 and up to 20 MHz DL in Band 42 as stated in Table 7.2.2.1.1-1, the 3rd IMD products may still fall into the BS receive band of the Bands 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 26, 27, 28, 42, 43 and 44 as shown in the last row in table 7.2.2.1.2-1. It should be noted that Bands 12, 13, 14, 17 is not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 1 and Band 22 is not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 42. Consequently, the focus here will be on the harmonics and IMD products falling into Bands 5, 6, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28, 42, 43 and 44. TDD BS does not transmit and receive simultaneously, so the BS’s own band 42 receiver and other synchronized band 42 receivers would not be interfered. With the performances of the current BS antenna system, transmit and receive path components, amplifiers, pre-distortion algorithms and filters, it is expected that the IMD interference generated within the Band 5, 6, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28 or unsynchronized 44 receiver would be well below the receiver noise floor eliminating the possibility of receiver desensitization, Therefore, it is recommended that Bands 1 and 42 BS transmitters should not share the same antenna with Band 5, 6, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28, unsynchronized 42, unsynchronized 43 or unsynchronized 44 BS receiver, unless the antenna path meets very stringent 3rd order PIM specification so that the PIM will not cause Band 5, 6, 8, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28, unsynchronized 42, unsynchronized 43 or unsynchronized 44 BS receiver desensitization. 7.2.2.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values Following relaxations are allowed for the UE which supports inter-band carrier aggregation of Band 1 and Band 42.

7.2.3.1.2 Co-existence studies for CA_3-40
Table 7.2.3.1.2-1 summarizes frequency ranges where harmonics occur due to Band 3 or Band 40 for both UL and DL. It can be seen that the harmonic frequencies of Band 3 and Band 40 in DL are away from the BS receive bands of interest in the UL. For the UE aspect, the UL harmonic frequencies of Band 3 and Band 40 does not locate within the UE receive bands of interest in the DL. Therefore we can conclude that there is no issue on harmonic interference.

The 2nd and 3rd order harmonics and IMD products caused in the BS by transmitting of Band 3 and Band 40 DL carriers can be calculated as shown in table 4 below: Table 7.2.3.1.2-2: Band 3 and Band 40 DL harmonics and IMD products BS DL carriers f1_low f1_high f2_low f2_high DL frequency (MHz) 1805 1880 2300 2400 2nd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 3610 3760 4600 4800 3rd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 5415 5640 6900 7200 2nd order IMD products (f2-low – f1-high) (f2-high – f1-low) (f2_low + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 420 595 4105 4280 3rd order IMD products (2*f1_low –f2_high) (2*f1_high –f2_low) (2*f2_low – f1_high) (2*f2_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 1210 1460 2720 2995 3rd order IMD products (2*f1_low + f2_low) (2*f1_high + f2_high) (2*f2_low + f1_low) (2*f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 5910 6160 6405 6680 3rd order IMD products (f1_low – f2_high + f2_low) (f1_high + f2_high – f2_low) (f2_low – f1_high + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 1705 1980 2225 2475 3rd order IMD products (with maximum channel bandwidth) (f1_low – f2_BWmax) (f1_high + f2_BWmax) (f2_low – f1_BWmax) (f2_high + f1_BWmax) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 1785 1900 2280 2420 It can be seen from Table 7.2.3.1.2-2 that the 2nd order IMD products may fall into the BS receive band of Band 31. The 3rd IMD products caused by BS supporting carrier aggregation of Band 3 and Band 40 may fall into the BS receive bands of Band 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 21, 25, 30, 33, 35, 36, 37, 39, and 40. However, when the impact of maximum bandwidth is considered, the 3rd order IMD products do not fall into the BS receive of Band 1, 3, 4, 9, 10, 33, 36, and 37. It should be noted that Bands 2, 4, 9, 10, 11, 21, 25, 30, 31, and 35 are not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 3 and 40. Consequently, the focus here will be on the harmonics and IMD products falling into Bands 39, and 40. TDD BS does not transmit and receive simultaneously, so the BS’s own band 40 receiver and other synchronized band 40 receivers would not be interfered. With the performances of the current BS antenna system, transmit and receive path components, amplifiers, pre-distortion algorithms and filters, it is noted that the harmonics and IMD interference generated in common signal paths within Band 39, if unsynchronized with band 40 may not be well below the receiver noise floor eliminating the possibility of receiver desensitization. Operating band 39 together with band 3 and 40 CA it is either recommended to synchronize bands 39 and 40 carriers or to have at least one of the three carrier signals using separate feeders. 7.2.3.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values For two simultaneous DL and one UL the TIB,c and RIB values are shown in table 7.2.3.1.3-1, and in table 7.2.3.1.3-2: Table 7.2.3.1.3-1: ΔTIB,c Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔTIB,c [dB] CA_3A-40A 3 FFS 40 FFS Table 7.2.3.1.3-2: ΔRIB Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔRIB [dB] CA_3A-40A 3 FFS 40 FFS

Note that the calculation in table 6.5.2.1.2-1 (except the last row) assumes the BS transmits the whole 20 MHz DL frequency of Band 3 and the whole 200 MHz DL frequency of Band 42. However even if the BS only transmits up to 20 MHz DL in Band 3 and up to 20 MHz DL in Band 42 as stated in Table 7.2.5.1.1-1, the 3rd IMD products may still fall into the BS receive band of the Bands 22, 42, 43 as shown in the last row in table 7.2.5.1.2-1. 7.2.5.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values Following relaxations are allowed for the UE which supports inter-band carrier aggregation of Band 3 and Band 42.

7.2.6.1.2 Co-existence studies for CA_26-41
Table 7.2.6.1.2-1gives the intermodulation products for Band 26 + Band 41 CA with 2 DLs. For the IMD analysis the maximum transmission as defined in table 7.2.6.1.1-1 is considered. It can be seen from the table that the 2nd harmonics of BS transmitting in Band 26 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 3, 4, 9 and 10 and the 3rd harmonics of BS transmitting in Band 26 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 38 and 41, while the 2nd IMD products caused by BS supporting CA of Band 26 and Band 41 may fall into the BS receive band of Band 3, 4, 9, 10, 22, 24 and 42, and the 3rd IMD products may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 26, 27, 28, 38, 41 and 44. Note that Bands 7, 8, 20 and 38 are not intended for use in the same geographical area as Bands 26 and 41. Therefore, sharing antenna for CA operation between Band 26 and Band 41 is not recommended. In addition, when one deploys CA_26-41 operation in certain region, these co-existence studies should be taken into account because harmonics and IMDs could fall into twenty bands in total.

7.2.6.1.2.1 B26 UE receiver harmonic mixing problem
This CA combination is associated with an undesired property that the B41 UL carrier can align with 3rd order harmonic of B26 DL carrier, as shown in Table 7.2.6.1.2.1-1, which could potentially cause B26 desensitization problem if simultaneous Tx/Rx would be operated, due to the known harmonic mixing problem in typical receiver design. Table 7.2.6.1.2.1-1 B26 DL and B41 UL harmonic relation B26 DL B26 DL x3 B41 Range (MHz) 859 - 894 2577 - 2682 2496 – 2690 Using the commonly adopted L/H band UE reference architecture, as shown in Figure 7.2.6.1.2.1-1, the B41 UL power at B26 LNA input is estimated to be around -33 dBm. Considering that a typical receiver path (excluding off-chip filters) 3rd order harmonic rejection performance would not be better than 20 dB (which includes 9-dB rejection from switching mixer and less than 10 dB from matching selectivity), the desensitization level is expected to be more than 50 dB which can virtually nullify the receiver function. On the other hand, if a transceiver could provide up to 20-dB 3rd order harmonic rejection, to avoid self-desensitization, the isolation from B41 PA output to B26 LNA input shall still be better than 100 dB, which likely cannot be achieved even with additional bandpass filters cascaded before LNA. Figure 7.2.6.1.2.1-1 UE reference architecture for self-desensitization analysis Although adding bandpass filters can help reduce desensitization level, it will also introduce additional insertion loss to B26 receiver, yet the MSD is expected to be still higher than 20 dB due to finite PCB isolation. Therefore, it is suggested network to avoid simultaneous Tx/Rx operation when the B41 UL and B26 DL 3rd harmonic alignment condition occurs. 7.2.6.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values For two simultaneous DL and one UL the TIB,c and RIB values are shown in table 7.2.6.1.3-1, and in table 7.2.6.1.3-2: Table 7.2.6.1.3-1: ΔTIB,c Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔTIB,c [dB] CA_26A-41A 26 0.3 41 0.3 Table 7.2.6.1.3-2: ΔRIB Inter-band CA Configuration E-UTRA Band ΔRIB [dB] CA_26A-41A 26 0 41 0

Table 7.2.7.1.2-1 presents the harmonic analysis for UE with single uplink.

It can be seen from table 7.2.7.1.2-2 that 2nd IMD products caused by BS supporting carrier aggregation of Band 3 and Band 38 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 12-14, 17, 26-28 and 44, while 3rd IMD products may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 2, 7, 22, 25, 35, 38, 39, 41 and 42 (assuming BS transmits up to 20 MHz DL in Band 3 and up to 20 MHz DL in Band 38). As BS cannot transmit and receive in Band 38 at the same time, the 3rd IMD products problem in receive band of Band 38 is not an issue. 7.2.7.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values The reported additional IL (Insertion Loss) values, based on implementation/simulation data, under ETC (Extreme Temperature Conditions) for combining band 3 and band 38, for each of the Tx and Rx paths, are shown in Table 7.2.7 .1.3-1.

7.2.8.1.2 Co-existence studies for CA_19-42
The harmonic frequencies do not fall into the frequency ranges of both bands as observed in table 7.2.8.1.2-1. Therefore we can conclude that there is no issue on harmonic interference. Table 7.2.8.1.2-1: Impact of UL/DL Harmonic Interference 2nd Harmonic 3rd Harmonic 2nd Harmonic 3rd Harmonic Band UL Low Band Edge UL High Band Edge DL Low Band Edge DL High Band Edge UL Low Band Edge UL High Band Edge UL Low Band Edge UL High Band Edge DL Low Band Edge DL High Band Edge DL Low Band Edge DL High Band Edge 19 830 845 875 890 1660 1690 2490 2535 1750 1780 2625 2670 42 3400 3600 3400 3600 6800 7200 10200 10800 6800 7200 10200 10800 Table 7.2.8.1.2-1 shows the second and third order DL harmonics and intermodulation products when two simultaneous DLs are active in Band 19 and Band 42.It can be seen from table 7.2.8.1.2-1 that some 2nd harmonic products of Band 19 fall into the BS receive band of Bands 3, 4, 9 and 10, while some 3rd harmonic products fall into the BS receive band of Bands 41.

Note that the calculation in table 7.2.8.1.2-2 (except the last row) assumes the BS transmits the whole 15 MHz DL frequency of Band 19 and the whole 200 MHz DL frequency of Band 42. However even if the BS only transmits up to 15 MHz DL in Band 19 and up to 20 MHz DL in Band 42 as stated in Table 7.2.8.1.1-1, the 3rd IMD products may still fall into the BS receive band of the Bands 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 20, 22, 24, 42, 43 as shown in the last row in table 7.2.8.1.2-2. It should be noted that Bands 4, 7, 10, 20 and 24 are not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 19 and Band 22 is not intended for use in the same geographical area as Band 42. Consequently, the focus is on the IMD products falling into Bands 3, 8, 9, 38, 41, 42 and 43, where receiver desensitization might be an issue. TDD BS does not transmit and receive simultaneously, so the BS’s own band 42 receiver and other synchronized band 42 receivers would not be interfered. Therefore, it is recommended that Bands 19 and 42 BS transmitters should not share the same antenna with Band 3, 8, 9 or unsynchronized Band 38, 41, 43 BS receivers, unless the antenna path meets very stringent 3rd order PIM specification so that the PIM will not cause Band 3, 8, 9 or unsynchronized 38, 41, 43 BS receivers desensitization. 7.2.8.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values Following relaxations are allowed for the UE which supports inter-band carrier aggregation of Band 19 and Band 42.

7.2.7.1.2 Co-existence studies for 1UL/2DL
Table 7.2.7.1.2-1 presents the harmonic analysis for UE with single uplink. There are no harmonic frequency products interfering own downlink bands but Band 3 second harmonic will fall into band 42 frequency range. Table 7.2.7.1.2-1: 1UL B3 + B38 harmonic products UE UL carriers f1_low f1_high f2_low f2_high UL frequency (MHz) 1710 1785 2570 2620 2nd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 3420 to 3570 5140 to 5240 3rd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 5130 to 5355 7710 to 7860 Table 7.2.7.1.2-2 shows the second and third order DL harmonics and intermodulation products when two simultaneous DLs are active in Band 3 and Band 38. Table 7.2.7.1.2-2: Band 3 and Band 38 DL harmonics and IMD products BS DL carriers f1_low f1_high f2_low f2_high DL frequency (MHz) 1805 1880 2570 2620 2nd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 3610 3760 5140 5240 3rd order harmonics frequency range (MHz) 5415 5640 7710 7860 2nd order IMD products |f2_low – f1_high| |f2_high – f1_low| (f2_low + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 690 815 4375 4500 3rd order IMD products (2*f1_low – f2_high) (2*f1_high – f2_low) (2*f2_low – f1_high) (2*f2_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 990 1190 3260 3435 3rd order IMD products (2*f1_low + f2_low) (2*f1_high + f2_high) (2*f2_low + f1_low) (2*f2_high + f1_high) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 6180 6380 6945 7120 3rd order IMD products (f1_low – f2_high + f2_low) (f1_high + f2_high – f2_low) (f2_low – f1_high + f1_low) (f2_high + f1_high – f1_low) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 1755 1930 2495 2695 3rd order IMD products (with maximum channel bandwidth) (f1_low – f2_BWmax) (f1_high + f2_BWmax) (f2_low – f1_BWmax) (f2_high + f1_BWmax) IMD frequency limits (MHz) 1785 1900 2550 2640 It can be seen from table 7.2.7.1.2-2 that 2nd harmonics caused by BS supporting carrier aggregation of Band 3 and Band 38 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 43, while none 3rd harmonic will fall into the BS receive band of currently defined 3GPP Bands. It can be seen from table 7.2.7.1.2-2 that 2nd IMD products caused by BS supporting carrier aggregation of Band 3 and Band 38 may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 12-14, 17, 26-28 and 44, while 3rd IMD products may fall into the BS receive band of Bands 2, 7, 22, 25, 35, 38, 39, 41 and 42 (assuming BS transmits up to 20 MHz DL in Band 3 and up to 20 MHz DL in Band 38). As BS cannot transmit and receive in Band 38 at the same time, the 3rd IMD products problem in receive band of Band 38 is not an issue. 7.2.7.1.3 ∆TIB and ∆RIB values The reported additional IL (Insertion Loss) values, based on implementation/simulation data, under ETC (Extreme Temperature Conditions) for combining band 3 and band 38, for each of the Tx and Rx paths, are shown in Table 7.2.7 .1.3-1.

(Yes / No): No 1 3GPP Work Area X Radio Access X Core Network Services 2 Linked work items OAM&P 8 (Operations, Administration, Maintenance & Provisioning), Feature: OAM8 3 Justification Telecom Management capabilities and functions evolve continuously because for example, new functions are added to manage new kind of nodes introduced into the network, more efficient functions and capabilities are introduced, new technologies are added, old technologies are not longer used. There is a constant need to enhance and further develop the methodology for the evolved Telecom Management area. To spread the way of working for Telecom Management, the methodology developed by 3GPP is promoted outside 3GPP. The use of the same or similar methodology to develop management capabilities for the various networks would facilitate the integration of these systems and networks where telecom is a part of. Therefore there are some dependencies on external bodies, e.g. 3GPP2, ITU-T and ETSI that are using a methodology that is common to 3GPP. The needs from these external bodies have to be taken into account. Requirements methodology is developed jointly with ITU-T and ETSI. That work needs to be finished. IS methodology is being developed jointly with ITU-T and ETSI. Also this work needs to be finished. SS methodology needs to be developed jointly with ITU-T and ETSI. The methodology for XML technology was started in Rel-7 and needs to be completed. In Rel-7 the SOAP technology was introduced. The methodology for how to use it needs to be developed, so that the same problems do not occur as for XML. It is still not clear how vendor specific extensions shall be done for XML. 4 Objective To complete the joint methodology for Requirements and IS together with ITU-T and ETSI. To develop a joint methodology for SS together with ITU-T and ETSI. To finish the started methodology for XML. To develop a methodology for SOAP. To develop a methodology for vendor specific extensions for XML. 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects None 8 Security Aspects None 9 Impacts Affects: UICC apps ME AN CN Others Yes X X No X X Don't know X

3.2 BB: Performance Management
Technical Specification Group Services and System Aspects TSGS#36(07)0301 Meeting #36, 4 – 7 June 2007, Busan, KOREA Source: SA5 (Telecom Management) Title: WID IP bearer network Performance measurement definitions - Unique_ID 35061 Document for: Approval Agenda Item: 10.4x (OAM8) - OAM&P Rel 8 3GPP TSG-SA5 (Telecom Management) S5-071047 Meeting SA5#53, 07 - 11 May 2007, Sophia Antipolis, FRANCE revision of S5-050297 Work Item Description Title: IP bearer network Performance measurement definition UID_35061 Acronym: OAM8 Is this Work Item a "Study Item"? (Yes / No): No. 1 3GPP Work Area X Radio Access X Core Network Services 2 Linked work items OAM&P 8 (Operations, Administration, Maintenance & Provisioning), Feature: OAM8 3 Justification Standardising performance measurements can bring a unified criterion for operators to evaluate the performance of networks provided by different vendors. With the evolution of RAN and All-IP Networks, it is very important to measure the performance of IP network between any two among RNCs, SGSNs, GGSNs, MGWs and MSC Servers. At present, 3GPP does not have performance measurements for it . Hence, it is necessary for us to look into ways to define these measurements. This WT proposes to widen the scope of TS 32.32x TestIRP to include 3GPP support of IP network performance measurements either by reference to existing measurements from other standards bodies or by initiating an effort in those standards bodies to include the counters that we would identify in this WT. IP performance mainly deals with the time delay, jitter, packet loss etc between any two NEs. Some of the IP network performance measurements methods have been defined in other standard bodies, such as IETF, so their work can be used as reference. 4 Objective Include support of Performance Measurement Counters for IP bearer network in TS 32.32x Test IRP either by reference to existing measurements from other standards bodies (ITU-T, IETF) or by initiating an effort in those standards bodies to include the counters that we would identify in this WT. 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects None 8 Security Aspects None

Technical Specification Group Services and System Aspects TSGS#36(07)0307 Meeting #36, 4 – 7 June 2007, Busan, KOREA Source: SA5 (Telecom Management) Title: WID Study of Element Operations Systems Function (EOSF) definition - Unique_ID 35065 Document for: Approval Agenda Item: 11.28 (OAM-Study) - OAM&P Studies 3GPP TSG-SA5 (Telecom Management) S5-071048 Meeting SA5#53, 7-11 May 2007, Sophia Antipolis, France Work Item Description Title: Study of Element Operations Systems Function (EOSF) definition UID_35065 Acronym: OAM-Study Is this Work Item a "Study Item"? (Yes / No): Yes 1 3GPP Work Area X Radio Access X Core Network Services 2 Linked work items OAM&P Rel-8 Studies (OAM-Study), UID_340067 3 Justification In the Logical Layered Architecture (LLA) of TMN, Network OSFs (N-OSF) are concerned with the management function on network level, and Element OSFs (E-OSF) with the management function on network element level. These two logical layers respectively play the role of network management function. The Element Management System developed by vendors may mainly cover network management functions described in E-OSF and or N-OSF. 3GPP TS 32.101 also state that the Element Manager (EM) has two aspects of function, element management and sub-network management. However, 3GPP 32.xxx series does not provide a clear definition for Element OSF which can help operators and vendors clarify what are required and can be used as a guide when they deploy network. It is necessary to state that EM provided by vendor is an entity, which implement E-OSF logical functions and may or may not implement N-OSF functions and even more. The Network Management System (NMS) may or may not direct access to NE and implement part of E-OSF. This scenario (i.e. whether NMS implement or not any E-OSF and whether EM implement any N-OSF or not ) is outside the 3GPP standardization scope. The mapping rule between physical entities (e.g. EMS, NMS) and logical function entities (e.g. E-OSF and N-OSF) is outside of this WID scope. The definition of E-OSF specification has to be based on the network operating and maintaining experience and consider the potential application environment of UMTS network. Up to now the existing specification from 3GPP may not enough as a guideline for the products. More E-OSF detail function definition is necessary to be defined in a TR as a reference for operator and vendor. 4 Objective The intention of this TR is to identify and define what will be needed in the E-OSFs. The intention of this TR is not to define new requirements for the eventual standardization of new Interface IRP and/or NRM IRP and/or System Context. This WI proposes to define the E-OSFs including the following main aspects. -Define functional scope of Element OSF (E-OSF) -Define functional requirement of Elements OSF (E-OSF) -Define the usage (use case) of the result of this WID. 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects None 8 Security Aspects None

(Yes / No): No 1 3GPP Work Area Radio Access X Core Network Services 2 Linked work items Charging Management small Enhancements (CH8) (Unique_ID 350016) 3 Justification 3GPP Technical Specification 32.240 (Charging architecture and principles) provides the possibility to aggregate and correlate charging information produced by different domains (e.g. IMS, PS) and different sources (e.g. x-CSCF, GGSN, etc.). This intra-domain and inter-domain correlation is specified for the offline charging method. However, such functionality is not offered for online charging. The Online Charging System (OCS) which performs event/session based charging, credit control and rating features collects charging events at the bearer level, the IMS level and at the service level. On the one hand, by controlling the network and application usage separately, the OCS is not able to apply special charging handling to one charging level against the other (e.g. zero rate bearer usage when an IMS session is active). On the other hand, when multiple services are rendered simultaneously to the subscriber, the OCS is not able to perform service bundling of these services. As such correlation functionality needs to be defined for online charging. 4 Objective As per the above justification, it is required to update the charging specifications as follows: • Update the OCS internal architecture to combine the EBCF (Event Based Charging Function) and SBCF (Session Based charging Function) into a single OCF (Online Charging Function) that performs both event and session based charging. This allows to optimize the handling of correlation. • Introduce a correlation function within the OCS as part of the above OCF which would be implement the service logic for correlation • Introduce a context monitoring function that defines a context related to the multiple sessions/services activated by a user simultaneously 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects This is a charging work item. 8 Security Aspects None

The Network Resource Model (NRM) of the UTMS Core Network is not applicable to EPC. The Evolved Packet Core (EPC) system needs to be managed. 3GPP network management paradigm necessitates the standardization of the representations of various managed resources. The standardization of the EPC system managed resources is captured in the so-called EPC Network Resource Model (NRM). The EPC architecture and capabilities evolve from those defined for UTMS Core Network. The management of the EPC system should also evolve from that for managing the UTMS Core Network. In particular, the NRM for EPC should align and resemble those specified for the Core managed network resources. The alignment of EPC NRM with Core NRM will have the following benefits: • The system architecture of EPC evolves from Core network and the existing Core network NRM is proven in operation. Therefore, the alignment will result in a specification that has a higher chance of being bug free when compared to a “brand new” designed specification. • It will minimise both the standardisation and product development efforts and maintenance efforts (i.e. the cost and time for development including testing and reduction of training cost when the management paradigms for EPC and Core network remained similar); • It will shorten the time to market for EPC systems; • It will facilitate a seamless coexistence with Core network management systems. 4 Objective Define EPC NRM using the same principles as for the UMTS Core network NRM. The definition will be captured in a new NRM IRP called EPC NRM IRP. The defined NRM should have identical characteristics as those defined for other NRMs such as UMTS Core network NRM. For example: the DN of its instances uses the same name convention as all instances whose IOCs are defined in various NRM IRPs. For example: Its IOCs will integrate, in identical manner as other NRM such as those defined in UMTS/GSM NRM IRP, with the IOCs defined in Generic NRM IRP. For example: operations and notifications defined in various Interface IRPs that work with existing instances of various NRM IRPs must work, without change, with the new instances of EPC. Similar to existing 3GPP NRM IRPs such as UTRAN and Core Network NRM IRP, the proposed new EPC NRM IRP focuses only on the representation of the network resources in question. This NRM IRP does not deal with the applications or usage of the IOCs. The objective of this work item is to define the NRM for EPC, e.g.: MME, HSS, Serving GW, PDN GW 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects None 8 Security Aspects Not known.

As the Evolved 3GPP System is an evolvement of UMTS, also the charging solutions for the Evolved 3GPP System should evolve from UMTS. Following the recommendations of the Study on Charging Aspects of 3GPP System Evolution a re-use of the existing UMTS charging standard solutions will have the following benefits: • It is proven in operation; • It will minimise both the standardisation and product development efforts (i.e. the cost and time); • It provides a base, on which more functionality can be developed; • It will shorten the time to market for Evolved 3GPP systems; • It will facilitate a seamless coexistence with UMTS charging systems. • It will also consider non-3GPP access; • It will enable an easy migration for the Operator to the new solution. 4 Objective This work item proposes to introduce Charging for the EPC Architecture by following the recommendations given in TR 32.820. 5 Service Aspects None 6 MMI-Aspects None 7 Charging Aspects This work item will cover Charging for EPC. 8 Security Aspects Further investigation needed.

TISPAN introduced AoC based on Tariff Information according to ITU recommendations and ETSI specifications. It is becoming available in 3G IMS networks. The usage of AoC in IMS based networks should be defined in 3GPP. Is this Work Item a "Study Item"? (Yes / No): No 1 3GPP Work Area Radio Access X Core Network Services 2 Linked work items • UID_370059 IMS Multimedia Telephony and Supplementary Services (Acronym: IMSTSS) 3 Justification AoC is currently listed in the charging requirements for 3GPP in TS 22.115. The high level description on AoC Information and Charging levels is in TS 22.086 and TS 23.086. AoC is based on the Charge Advise Information (CAI) defined in TS 22.024. The support of subscribed AoC in CAMEL for CS and PS networks is specified in TS 23.078. The requirement for AoC support in TISPAN is handled in WID02037 and considers the SIP transfer of charging information in WID 3113. The transport of tariff information, the evaluation and the advice to the mobile subscriber is not described in IMS. 4 Objective This work item proposes to introduce AoC in 3GPP IMS Charging and is limited to support AoC information on the corresponding charging interfaces as well as in the OCS. A new specification will be created with definitions for AoC and description of AoC in IMS Charging. This description will contain the AoC Information for charging purposes. The determination for SIP transport of tariff information will follow the requirements from TS 22.273. The mechanism for the tariff change and the support of the tariff format will adhere on the existing 3GPP principles. Additions, e.g. for different use case or simplifications is For Further Study. 5 Service Aspects The AoC service provision and information transfer should be made available as a SIP based IMS services. The transfer of tariff information is outside the scope of this WID but is For Further Study in other 3GPP groups. 6 MMI-Aspects The presentation of the AoC information at the UE/ME is outside the scope of this WID and shall be considered in other 3GPP groups. 7 Charging Aspects This is a Charging Work Item 8 Security Aspects Further investigation needed

3 Justification
In order to complement the work done in RAN, it’s SA5 responsibility to provide corresponding OAM solution for 3G Home NodeB. SA5 will need to standardize management services that are specific to Home NodeB because of the following Home NodeB characteristics: • The quantity of Home NodeB is likely to be large • There may be many Home NodeB vendors • Home NodeB may be purchased easily by end users in market • The location of Home NodeB could be in a private residence which may not be accessible for frequent on-site maintenance SA5 has studied Home NodeB OAM and SON aspects for some time. The management differences between Home NodeB and macro NodeB are listed in TR32.821. The requirements for managing Home NodeB have been provided in the TR32.821 and the consequences on the management interface for Home NodeB are also described. Based on the study in SA5, it was agreed the interface type 1 and type 2 shown in the following diagram are to be standardized for Home NodeB OAM&P.
