TIA TIA-890-A

Scope of This Document

These technical requirements form a compatibility standard for test applications in cdma2000 high rate packet data systems. These requirements ensure that a compliant access terminal and a compliant access network can interoperate to execute tests in meeting the objectives stated in 1.2. While the details of the tests are beyond the scope of this document, an informative section illustrating some examples is provided.

This standard is primarily oriented toward requirements necessary for the design and implementation of access terminals. As a result, detailed procedures are specified for access terminals to ensure a uniform response to all access networks. Access network procedures, however, are specified only to the extent necessary for compatibility with those specified for the access terminal.
