1 General Information on  the Article 2 and 5 in the Draft 
Amendment  of Technical Specifications for Mobile 
Broadband Base Station Radio Frequency Equipment  
In response to the amendment of "Regulations Governing the Operating Items 
and Scope, the Timetable for Deregulation and the Number of Operators to Be 
Allowed for Type I Telecommunication Enterprises" published on 18 April 2017, 
which released 1800 MHz and  2100 MHz frequency bands for mobile broadband 
services, NCC proposes to revise the "Technical Specifications for Mobile 
Broadband Base Station Radio Frequency Equipment" by making references to 
relevant international standards. Amendment points are descri bed as below:  
 
1. Scope （revision to  Paragraph 2 ） 
2. Test Regulation （revision to Paragraph 5 ）

Equipment  To make consistent terms mentioned 
in technical specifications  for 
radio frequency equipment and 
terminal equipment of mobile 
broadband services, the title of 
technical specifications  are 
amended to the "Technical 
Specifications for Mobile Broadband 
Business Base Station Radio 
Frequency Equipment ."  
Amended Provisions  Current Provisions  Descriptions  
2. Scope 
This specifications  are applicable to the 
certification of the frequency bands for 
mobile broadband services such as the 
frequency equipment of Base Stations, 
Repeaters, Micro Base Stations, Pico 
Cells and Femto Cells. 
Based on multiplexing properties, they 
can be classified as frequency division 
duplex (FDD) and time division duplex 2. Scope 
This specifications are applicable to the 
certification of the frequency bands for 
mobile broadband services such as the 
frequency equipment of Base Stations, 
Repeaters, Micro Base Stations, Pico 
Cells and Femto Cells.  
Based on multiplexing properties, they 
can be classified as frequency division 
duplex (FDD) and time division duplex 1. In line with the release of the 
1800 MHz and 2100 MHz bands  for 
the use of mobile broadband 
services by the Executive Yuan in 
2017, the applicable scope of th e 
specifications is amended.  
2. Article 2.3~2.1 and 2.2 are 
integrated.   2 (TDD) with relevant frequency sections 
are identified as below:  
2.1 Frequency Division Duplex (FDD):  
700 MHz (uplink 703 MHz -748 MHz \ 
downlink 758 MHz -803 MHz), 900 MHz 
(uplink 885 MHz -915 MHz\downlink 930 
MHz-960 MHz),  1800 MHz (uplink 1710 
MHz-1785 MHz\downlink 1805 MHz -1880 
MHz), 2100 MHz (uplink 1920 MHz-1980 
MHz\downlink 2110 MHz-2170 MHz), 2500 
MHz and 2600 MHz (uplink 2500 MHz-2570 
MHz\downlink 2620 MHz-2690 MHz) bands.  
2.2 Time Division Duplex(TDD):  
2500 MHz and 2600 MHz bands  (2500 
MHz-2570 MHz, 2570 MHz -2620 MHz and 2620 
MHz-2690 MHz). 
 (TDD) with relevant frequency sections 
are identified as below:  
2.1 Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) : 
700 MHz (uplink 703 MHz -748 MHz \ 
downlink 758 MHz -803 MHz), 900 MHz 
(uplink 885 MHz -915 MHz\downlink 930 
MHz-960 MHz), and 1800 MHz (uplink 1710 
MHz-1770 MHz \downlink 1805 MHz -1865 
MHz) bands.  
2.2 Time Division Duplex(TDD) : 
2500 MHz and 2600 MHz bands  (2570 
MHz-2620 MHz, including guard bands 
2570 MHz -2575 MHz and 2615 MHz -2620 
MHz). 
2.3 Frequency Division Duplex  (FDD) and 
Time Division Duplex(TDD):  
2500 MHz and 2600 MHz bands (2500 
MHz-2570 MHz and 2620 MHz -2690 MHz; 
either one may be used in these 
frequency bands; if FDD is adopted then 
the uplink 2500 MHz -2570 MHz, downlink 
2620 MHz -2690 MHz).   3 5. Test Requirement  
Except as otherwise provided in these 
technical specifications, testing 
methods for examining emission power and 
out-of-band radiation emission shall all 
be processed based on the inspection 
requirements stated in Point 5 of the 
Low-power Radio -frequency D evices 
Technical Specifications (LPRFD 
Technical Requirements). The inspection 
procedures shall be processed in 
accordance of the Appendix 1 "Referential 
Procedures of Inspecting Transmitters " 
of the Low -power Radio -frequency Devices 
Technical Specifications (LPRFD 
Technical Requirements).  5. Test Requirement  
5.1 Except as otherwise provided in these 
technical specifications, testing 
methods for examining emission power 
and out -of-band radiati on emission 
shall all be processed based on the 
inspection requirements stated in Point 
5 of the Low -power Radio -frequency 
Devices Technical Specifications 
(LPRFD Technical Requirements). The 
inspection procedures shall be 
processed in accordance of the Ap pendix 
1 "Referential Procedures of Inspecting 
Transmitters " of the Low -power 
Radio-frequency Devices Technical 
Specifications (LPRFD Technical 
Requirements).  
5.2 The carrier emission bandwidth stated 
in Section 4.2.2.2.2 of the 
specifications shall be car ried out 
based on regulations stated in 
"Emission Bandwidth " of Section 1.12(3) 
of the Lower Radio -frequency Devices 
Technical Specifications (LPRFD 
Technical Requirements).  1. In response to the amendment of 
the "Low-power Radio -frequency 
Devices Technical Regulations " 
and the existing regulations for 
measuring in 3GPP TS 36.512 -3, 
current Article 5.2 is deleted.  
2. The item sequences in Article 5.1 
are adjusted.   4
