Technical requirements and test methods for acoustics performance of digital mobile terminal
1 Scope
This standard specifies the technical requirements and test methods of acoustics characteristics when digital mobile terminals access GSM, TD-SCDMA, WCDMA or cdma2000 for voice communication.
It is applicable to all kinds of digital mobile terminal equipment used to connect with public digital mobile networks, including but not limited to one or more of the above four systems.

4 Technical requirements of narrow-band audio
4.1 Sending sensitivity/frequency characteristics
4.1.1 Handle/head-mounted terminal
The sending sensitivity/frequency characteristics measured from the mouth reference point to the output port of the reference coder/decoder of system simulator (SS) shall be within the range given in Table 1. On the logarithmic (frequency)/linear (dB sensitivity) coordinates, draw a straight line between the discontinuous points in Table 1 to get a range (as shown in Figures 1 and 2) within which there shall be the testing results.
