This document contains the test requirements for a GSM Tri-band (900/1800/1900) pocket
transceiver for use with an antenna coupler or RF fixture. These test sequences should be used as
an arrival and verification test of radio functionality.
Tests are done in signaling mode, i.e. a call has been established to the test instrument. The test
instrument controls the transceiver unit. RF performance is measured with an antenna coupler or
a RF fixture, whichever method is selected.
1.2 Script Requirements
• The test should be designed so those users with little or no system expertise can perform
accurate testing.
• The measurements should run automatically, though a certain amount of manual work is
included (and mandatory), such as MS call setup (i.e. dialing number).
• It should be possible to print or store the measurement results.
• It should be possible to change the channels used in testing due to possible local radio
interference. The ranges for these settings are specified under the Channel Allocation
Table.
• All functions and settings should be protected in such a manner that the end-user cannot
directly change them. (For example, a password or encrypted settings file.)
• The attenuation factors that should be used are stated in section 4. The test instrument must
be capable of using different attenuation factors for RX and TX. It must also be possible to
use various attenuation factors for different channels in each band.
NOTE! Any setups other than the one stated in this document must be discussed and
approved by Sony Ericsson.

GSM900 Mid 36-40
GSM900 High 120-124
The test limits for each measurement are specified in the Sequence Tables.
1. Since the coupler introduces higher measurement inaccuracy, some measurements
may have wider limits than stated in the GSM specifications.
2. The direct line connection limits conform to the phase 2 GSM specification.
