A.8.2 FDD inter frequency measurements

25.1333GPPRelease 17Requirements for support of radio resource management (FDD)TS

A.8.2.1 Correct reporting of neighbours in AWGN propagation condition

A.8.2.1.1 Test Purpose and Environment

The purpose of this test is to verify that the UE makes correct reporting of an event when doing inter frequency measurements. The test will partly verify the requirements in section 8.1.2.3.

The test consists of two successive time periods, with a time duration T1 and T2. The test parameters are given in tables A.8.9 and A.8.10 below. In the measurement control information it is indicated to the UE that event-triggered reporting with Event 1A and 2C shall be used. The CPICH Ec/I0 of the best cell on the unused frequency shall be reported together with Event 2C reporting.

A.8.2.1.2 Test Requirements

a) The UE shall send one Event 2C triggered measurement report, with a measurement reporting delay less than 3.4 seconds from the beginning of time period T1.

b) The UE shall send one Event 1A triggered measurement report, with a measurement reporting delay less than 956.2 ms from the beginning of time period T2.The UE shall not send any measurement reports, as long as the reporting criteria are not fulfilled.

The rate of correct events observed during repeated tests shall be at least 90%.

NOTE: The actual overall delays measured in the test may be up to 2 x TTIUL DCCH higher than the measurement reporting delays above because of TTI insertion uncertainty of the measurement report in the UL DCCH.

A.8.2.2 Correct reporting of neighbours in Fading propagation condition

A.8.2.2.1 Test Purpose and Environment

The purpose of this test is to verify that the UE makes correct reporting of an event when doing inter frequency measurements. The test will partly verify the requirements in section 8.1.2.3.The test parameters are given in Table A.8.11 and A.8.12. In the measurement control information it is indicated to the UE that event-triggered reporting 2C shall be used. The test consists of two successive time periods, each with a time duration of T1 and T2 respectively.
