A.5.3b.1 Test Purpose and Environment

A.5.3b.1.1 3.84 Mcps TDD option

A.5.3b.1.2 1.28 Mcps TDD option

This test is to verify the requirement for UTRAN TDD to E-UTRAN TDD handover requirements specified in section 5.3b.

The test scenario comprises of 1 UTRA TDD cell and 1 E-UTRA TDD cell as given in tables Table A.5.3b.1.2-1, Table A.5.3b.1.2-2, and Table A.5.3b.1.2-3. Idle interval of 80ms period as defined in TS25.331 is configured before T2 begins to enable E-UTRAN monitoring.

The test consists of three successive time periods, with time durations of T1, T2 and T3 respectively.

A RRC message implying handover shall be sent to the UE during period T2, after the UE has reported Event 3a. The end of the last TTI containing handover message is begin of T3 duration.

Note 1: OCNG shall be used such that cell is fully allocated and a constant total transmitted power spectral density is achieved for all OFDM symbols.

Note 2: RSRP, SCH_RP and Io levels have been derived from other parameters for information purposes. They are not settable parameters themselves.
