Preface

This third issue, Issue 3 of RSS-133 replaces Issue 2, Revision 1 of RSS-133 dated November 6, 1999.

This new version will be in force as of the publication date of Notice SMSE-006-05 in the Canada Gazette Part I. Upon publication, the public has 90 days to make comments. These comments will be taken into account in the preparation of the next version of the document.

The following are the main changes: 

1. General reformatting, editorial changes and updating to reflect current practice.
   
   
2. Modify Section 6.1 ‚Frequency Plan‛ to refer to Standard Radio System Plan 510 (SRSP-510) for details on frequency plan and system’s multiplexing techniques.
   
   
3. Change the definition of ‚Emission Bandwidth‛ to accept the -20 dBc bandwidth instead of the -26 dBc bandwidth as emission bandwidth (Section 2.6).
   
   
4. Allow any type of modulation techniques to be employed (Section 6.2).
   
   
5. Modify the electronic serial number (ESN) requirements to acknowledge that the Mobile Equipment Identifier (MEID) will comply with the ESN requirements (Section 5.4).
   
   
6. Update the ‚Unwanted Emissions‛ section (Section 6.5) to include a new alternative base station spectrum mask for the first 1.5 MHz from block edge. The new mask is equivalent to current Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) base station specifications.
   
   
7. The spurious emission limit (using radiated measurement) for receivers at frequencies above 1610 MHz has been abolished.  The 960-1610 MHz limit is now applicable to all receiver spurious emissions at frequencies above 960 MHz (Section 6.7).

Issued under the authority of
the Minister of Industry
