- For cellular systems:
- If the mask is defined in positive values (ACS), then maskValue(f) corresponds to the mask specified in the receiver settings;
- If the mask is defined in negative values, then maskValue(f) corresponds to the calculated positive mask using the input parameters Standard Desensitization and Desensitisation and I/N_target (see section A8.2.8).

| Standard Desensitization (dB) | Target I/N (dB) |
OFDMA UL | +6 | -6 |
OFDMA DL | +6 | -6 |
CDMA UL | +6 | -6 |
CDMA DL | +3 | -6 |
The algorithm to convert negative blocking mask values is as follows:
