 Foreword
This Technical Specification has been produced by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version x.y.z
where:
x	the first digit:
1	presented to TSG for information;
2	presented to TSG for approval;
3	or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control.
Y	the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections, updates, etc.
z	the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the document.
Introduction
In order to ensure correctness and consistency of the specifications (i.e., technical specifications and technical reports) under responsibility of the Technical Specification Groups (TSG) of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), clear, manageable and efficient mechanisms are necessary to handle version control, change control, document updating, distribution and management.
Also, the fact that the specifications are/will be implemented by industry almost in parallel with the writing of them requires strict and fast procedures for handling of changes to the specifications.
It is very important that the changes that are brought into the standard, from the past, at present and in the future, are well documented and controlled, so that technical consistency and backwards tracing are ensured.
The 3GPP TSGs, and their sub-groups together with the Support Team are responsible for the technical content and consistency of the specifications whilst the Support Team alone is responsible for the proper management of the entire documentation, including specifications, meeting documents, administrative information and information exchange with other bodies.
1	Scope

4	General
4.1	Main concepts
The LMU is either located as a separate unit in an existing network or typically located at Node B or BTS sites. Therefore the LMU radio requirements assume that the isolation between the LMU and any other network to be protected is to be at least 30dB.
The communication link between LMU and Stand-Alone SMLC is not a radio interface over the air. Requirements in this document therefore do not cover the situation when the LMU is transmitting over the air on this interface between LMU and Stand-Alone SMLC.
4.2	LMU Classes
The requirements in this specification apply to Wide Area LMUs and Medium Range LMUs.  
Wide Area LMUs are characterised by requirements derived from Macro Cell scenarios with an LMU to UE minimum coupling loss equal to 70 dB. 
Medium Range LMUs are characterised by requirements derived from Micro Cell scenarios with an LMU to UE minimum coupling loss equal to 53 dB.
For Pico Cell scenarios, the location of the BS provides sufficient accuracy; therefore, a Local Area LMUs class is not specified.
4.3	U-TDOA architecture
A sample architecture is shown in Figure 3.1 depicting the LMU’s relationship with other network elements.  The LMU is typically located at the Node B.  The LMUs communicate with the SMLC that distributes UTDOA reference data from the reference LMU to other cooperating LMUs when performing UE positioning.

 EMBED Visio.Drawing.6  
Figure 3.1: Example of UTDOA deployment
5	LMU radio characteristics
An LMU performs BS receiver functions to obtain reference data for use at a cooperating LMU.  The following clause describes the required LMU radio characteristics when performing these functions.
5.1	Frequency bands
a)  The LMU is designed to operate in the following bands:
Table 4.1: Frequency bands
Operating Band
UL Frequencies
UE transmit, LMU receive
I
1920 – 1980 MHz
II

b)	Deployment in other frequency bands is not precluded
5.2	Channel arrangement
The channel arrangement shall be as specified in Section 5.4 of [1].
5.3	Reference sensitivity level
Using the reference measurement channel specification in TS 25.104 Annex A [1], the reference sensitivity level and performance of the LMU shall be as specified in Table 4.2.

5.4	Dynamic range
Receiver dynamic range is the receiver ability to handle a rise of interference in the reception frequency channel. The receiver shall fulfil a specified BER requirement for a specified sensitivity degradation of the wanted signal in the presence of an interfering AWGN signal in the same reception frequency channel.
The BER shall not exceed 0.001 for the parameters specified in Table 4.3.

5.5	Adjacent Channel Selectivity (ACS)
Adjacent channel selectivity (ACS) is a measure of the LMU receiver ability to receive a wanted signal at its assigned channel frequency in the presence of an adjacent channel signal at a given frequency offset from the centre frequency of the assigned channel. ACS is the ratio of the LMU receiver filter attenuation on the assigned channel frequency to the receiver filter attenuation on the adjacent channel(s).
The interference signal is offset from the wanted signal by the frequency offset Fuw. The interference signal shall be a W-CDMA signal as specified in Annex C of TS 25.104 [1].
The BER shall not exceed 0.001 for the parameters specified in Table 4.4.

5.6	Blocking characteristics
The blocking characteristics are a measure of the LMU receiver ability to receive a wanted signal at its assigned channel frequency in the presence of an unwanted interferer on frequencies other than those of the adjacent channels. The performance as specified in Table 4.5-4.10 shall be met with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to the LMU antenna input using the following parameters for the blocking and narrowband blocking requirements:

An additional blocking requirement may be applied for the protection of the LMU receivers when UTRA TDD is co-located with an LMU.
The current state-of-the-art technology does not allow a single generic solution for co-location with UTRA-TDD on adjacent frequencies for 30dB BS-BS minimum coupling loss. 
However, there are certain site-engineering solutions that can be used in these cases. These techniques are addressed in TR 25.942 [4].
For an LMU, the static reference performance as specified in clause 5.3 should be met with a wanted and an interfering signal coupled to BS antenna input using the parameters in Table 4.11.

5.7	Intermodulation characteristics
Third and higher order mixing of the two interfering RF signals can produce an interfering signal in the band of the desired channel.  Intermodulation response rejection is a measure of the capability of the receiver to receive a wanted signal on its assigned channel frequency in the presence of two or more interfering signals which have a specific frequency relationship to the wanted signal. 
The static reference performance as specified in clause 5.3 shall be met for a LMU when the following signals are coupled to LMU antenna input:
-	A wanted signal at the assigned channel frequency with a mean power of ‑115 dBm.
-	Two interfering signals with the following parameters.

5.8	Spurious emissions
The spurious emissions power is the power of emissions generated or amplified in a receiver that appear at the LMU antenna connector. 
The power of any spurious emission shall not exceed:

6	LMU measurement requirements
6.1	General
All tests at specified detection levels require that the LMU detection threshold be set such that the false alarm rate is at or below 5 % when no signal is present (noise only).
6.2	RRC States supported
UTDOA positioning technique does work in CELL_DCH and CELL_FACH state, not in URA_PCH nor CELL_PCH state.
6.3	Maximum response times
1) The maximum time for a Master LMU to establish a reference signal shall be, after the data capture has started, less than 5 seconds.
2) The maximum time for the distribution of the reference signal to another LMU involved in the positioning shall be less than 3 seconds.
3) The maximum time of detection of the time of arrival in an LMU given the reference signal shall be less than 15 seconds.
6.4	Nominal time accuracy
Nominal Time Accuracy requirement verifies the difference between the detected time of arrival and the real time of arrival. 
In an AWGN environment with no fading or multi-paths, the standard deviation of the timing error of the LMU shall be less than 30 ns when the signal presence is correctly detected.
6.5	Multipath scenarios
The purpose of the test case is to verify the LMU receiver’s performance in multipath.
For the 12.2 kbps reference measurement channel specified in 3GPP TS 25.104 Annex A [1], and with Rx diversity (using both diversity paths), the LMU shall be capable of detecting the earliest path, for at least 90 % of the location attempts, at the levels in Table 5.1.
Nominal time accuracy for multipath fading scenarios includes an additional chip duration of 260 nanoseconds over that in Section 5.4.

NOTE 2:  Multipath-fading case 1-4 is described in 3GPP TS 25.104 Annex B.2 [1].
6.6	Moving scenario
The purpose of the test case is to verify the LMU receiver’s performance to Doppler shift.
In an AWGN environment with no fading or multi-paths, and at a speed of 250km/h, the detectability of the LMU shall be degraded by no more than 1.5 dB.
6.7	Cross correlation
The ability of  the LMU to detect a weak terminal signal in the presence of a strong other terminal is covered in Section 5.5 when the other terminal interference is modelled as AWGN.
