10.1 Demodulation of MCCH

25.1023GPPRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) radio transmission and reception (TDD)

The receive characteristic of the MCCH is determined by the RLC SDU error rate (RLC_SDU_ER). The requirement is valid for all RRC states for which the UE has capabilities.

10.1.1 Minimum requirement

10.1.1.1 3.84 Mcps TDD Option

For the parameters specified in Table 10.1, the measured average downlink S-CCPCH_Ec/Ior power ratio shall be below the specified value for the RLC_SDU_ER shown in Table 10.2.
