Maximum peak power
Maximum power density
Enter the appropriate sign (+ or -) and the maximum value of the
total peak envelope power (RR.S1.157), expressed in dBW,
supplied to the input of the antenna for each corresponding

Note: If the maximum values of peak envelope power are being
provided for individual carriers, they should be of type C8a1. If
the notification does not concern individual carriers (e.g. as in
spread spectrum applications) provide a general designation of
emission (item C7a) and total peak power values of type C8b1.
Enter the appropriate sign (+ or -) followed by the value of the
maximum power density per Hertz (expressed in dBW/Hz) as
supplied to the input of the antenna. This must be averaged over
the worst 4KHz band for carriers below 15 GHz, or averaged over
the worst 1 MHz band for carriers above 15 GHz. For narrow band
carriers with a necessary bandwidth (RR.S1.152) less than the
reference bandwidth, the peak power should be averaged over the
reference bandwidth (4 KHz or 1 MHz) to obtain this value of
maximum power density.
Note: If the values of maximum power density are being provided
for individual carriers, they should be of type C8a2. If the
notification does not concern individual carriers (e.g. as in spread
spectrum applications) provide a general designation of emission
(item C7a) and maximum power density values of type 8b2.
Minimum peak power

minimum power density per Hertz (expressed in dBW/Hz) as
supplied to the input of the antenna for each corresponding
emission (carrier type) averaged over the worst 4 kHz band for
carriers below 15 GHz, or averaged over the worst 1 MHz band
for carriers above 15 GHz. For narrow band carriers with a
necessary bandwidth (RR.S1.152) less than the reference
bandwidth, the peak power should be averaged over the reference
bandwidth (4 KHz or 1 MHz) to obtain this value of minimum
power density.
