Where: AttBlocking = BlockPR + C/(N+I) + 3 dB
• If C/(N+I) = - 3 dB AttBlocking = BlockPR - 3 dB + 3 dB = BlockPR
• ....equivalent to User Defined Mode

If the interference criteria are not the same... You can compensate this when defining the
mask (unwanted or blocking)
Blocking: PR mode + Criterion: C/I=0 dBUnwanted: Criterion C/I=10 dB
Remove 10 dB from blocking maskCriterion C/I=10 dB
