Abstract

A disclosure of the present specification provides a method for transmitting an uplink signal by a user equipment. The method may comprise the steps of: receiving a network signal for restricting a transmission power, wherein, when an uplink signal is transmitted through an uplink carrier wave in an uplink band that partially overlaps a mobile satellite service (MSS) band, the network signal is received in the case in which the uplink signal may provide interference to a personal handyphone system (PHS) band; determining a transmission power by applying additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) on the basis of the received network signal; and transmitting the uplink signal through the uplink carrier wave according to the determined transmission power.

Claims (44)

1. A method for transmitting an uplink signal by a user equipment, comprising:

receiving a network signal for limiting transmission power,

wherein the network signal is received when the uplink signal is transmitted through an uplink carrier within an uplink band overlapping with part of a mobile satellite service (MSS) band such that the uplink signal is likely to cause interference to a personal handyphone system (PHS) band;

determining a transmission power by adopting additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) based on the received network signal; and

transmitting the uplink signal through the uplink carrier in accordance with the determined transmission power,

wherein when the uplink band corresponds to evolved-universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) band 65 , a value being indicated by the network signal is different from a value being indicated by a network signal for the E-UTRA band 1 that is positioned to be adjacent to the MSS band.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the E-UTRA band 65 overlaps with part of the E-UTRA band 1 .

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network signal corresponds to a network signal allowing resource block allocation to be performed by applying the A-MPR for a frequency in which the resource block allocation is limited, when the transmission power is limited in accordance with the network signal for the E-UTRA band 1 .

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein, when a frequency distance between a boundary frequency of the uplink band and the PHS band is equal to 4.3 MHz, a value of the A-MPR is equal to 9 dB.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein a spurious emission protection level for the PHS band of the uplink band corresponds to −41 dBm/300 kHz.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink carrier for transmitting the uplink signal corresponds to 1920 MHz-1940 MHz.

7. A method for transmitting an uplink signal by a user equipment, comprising:

receiving a network signal for limiting transmission power,

wherein the network signal is received, when the uplink signal is transmitted through an uplink carrier within an uplink band being adjacent to both an evolved-universal terrestrial radio access (E-UTRA) band 33 and a E-UTRA band 39 such that the uplink signal is likely to cause interference to any one of the E-UTRA\ band 33 and E-UTRA band 39 ;

determining a transmission power by adopting additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) based on the received network signal;

determining a guard band based on the received network signal; and

transmitting the uplink signal through the uplink carrier in accordance with the determined transmission power and guard band,

wherein when the uplink band corresponds to E-UTRA band 65 , a value being indicated by the network signal is different from a value being indicated by a network signal for E-UTRA band 1 that is positioned to be adjacent to the MSS band.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein, when a bandwidth of the uplink carrier is equal to 15 MHz, when a spurious emission protection level for the E-UTRA band 33 and the E-UTRA band 39 of the uplink band corresponds to −40 dBm/MHz, the guard band corresponds to 20 MHz, and a value of the A-MPR value is equal to 1 dB.

9. A user equipment for transmitting an uplink signal, comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit configured to transmit and receive radio signals through a band overlapping with part of a mobile satellite service (MSS) band; and

a processor configured to control the RF unit,

determining a transmission power by adopting additional maximum power reduction (A-MPR) based on the received network signal, and

transmitting the uplink signal through the uplink carrier in accordance with the determined transmission power,
