Radiation
Omni-directional
Polarization
Vertical
TRP/TIS
Including cable loss the total radiate power (TRP) at the antenna shall be no less
than +22/24.5 dBm for 850/1900/ MHz respectively, and the total isotropic

PTCRB Requirements for the Antenna
There cannot be any alteration to the authorized antenna system. The antenna system must maintain the
same specifications. The antenna must be the same type, with similar in-band and out-of-band radiation
patterns.
