The main content of the draft standard EN 301 908-13 V13.2.0 is updated from the V13.1.1 & V13.2.0 (Draft) test items, it is found the new-added OTA test items in TRS and TRP on below table yellow highlight:
The new version of the standard adds two test items, i.e., TRS and TRP. These which are the key OTA test items. Following the addition of OTA testing to WCDMA last year, ETSI officially incorporated LTE OTA testing into the CE standard, which not only embodies LTE cellular communication performance testing in the most intuitive way, but also escalate achieve the height of the test performance for LTE cellular communication.
These two OTA tests require BHHR (Beside Head Hand Right) and BHHL (Beside Head Hand Left) modes, i.e., right head + right hand and left head + left hand. Currently, only the following states are applicable:
Product width size: 56 mm ≤ EUT ≤ 72 mm
Required frequency band LTE Band 1/3/7/8/20/28/38/40
Test procedure, refer to ETSI TS 137 544 User Equipment (UE) Over The Air (OTA) performance; Conformance testing for reverberation chamber method.
TRS (Total Radiated Sensitivity)
TRP (Total Radiated Power)
BTL pays attention to every certification standard update in time, and adjusts and formulates the test plan corresponding to the new released standard in the first moment. For this ETSI EN 301 908-13 V13.2.0 standard update, the BTL mobile communication OTA laboratory is ready to provide you with the updated version of CE standard LTE product certification test service at any time!

6G Developments: Past, Present and Future
The formulation of 6G standards has entered a more concrete phase. At the 3GPP RAN Plenary Meeting held in Singapore in June 2026, the industry made progress in multiple key research areas and finalized the timeline for Release 21, which is regarded as the first standard version expected to formally define 6G.
Overview of EN IEC 61000-4-29:2026
The key focus of the 2026 edition is to address new DC power distribution environments, especially higher-voltage DC systems. It also clarifies test generator capability, duration tolerance, current limitation during short interruptions, inrush current verification, result evaluation, and test report requirements. For products using 24 Vdc, 48 Vdc, 380 Vdc, 400 Vdc, 800 Vdc, or other DC input pow
