14.2.51b.1 Conversational / unknown / UL:64 DL:64 kbps / CS RAB / 20 ms TTI + Interactive or background / UL:16 DL:64 kbps / PS RAB

14.2.51b.1.1 Conformance requirement

See 14.2.4.1.

14.2.51b.1.2 Test purpose

Test to verify establishment and data transfer of reference radio bearer configuration as specified in TS 34.108, clause 6.10.2.4.1.51b for the 20 ms TTI case.

14.2.51b.1.3 Method of test

Initial Conditions

The following RLC Info parameter values for the Conversational / unknown / UL:64 DL:64 kbps / CS RAB shall be set by the SS:

Uplink RLC

TM RLC

Transmission RLC discard

CHOICE SDU Discard Mode

Timer based no explicit

Timer_discard

100ms

Segmentation indication

FALSE

Downlink RLC

TM RLC

Segmentation indication

FALSE

NOTE: ‘Timer based discard without explicit signalling’ is configured in uplink to secure that the UE will be able to return data in uplink for the case when the UE test loop function, due to processing delays, will not deliver the SDUs in one and the same TTI, but instead in two subsequent TTIs.

See 14.1.2 for test procedure.

For the PS UL:16/DL:64 kbps radio bearer the downlink TTI is 20ms while the uplink TTI is 40ms. As the SS will send one DL SDU every 20 ms then the UE test loop function will return 2 UL SDUs per uplink TTI. To not cause uplink transmission buffer overflow then the UL RLC SDU size should be chosen such that the UE will transmit 2 RLC SDUs per uplink TTI. For the case when the transport format under test does not allow for 2 SDUs to fit into the transport format size without requiring concatenation then the UL RLC SDU size shall be chosen such that one SDU is returned per uplink TTI.

NOTE 1: UL_TFC0, UL_TFC1, UL_TFC3 and UL_TFC6 are part of minimum set of TFCIs.

NOTE 2: See TS 34.109 [10] clause 5.3.2.6.2 for details regarding loopback of RLC SDUs.

RB6: Test data size has been set to DL TFS size under test minus 8 bits (size of 7 bit length indicator and expansion bit).

NOTE 3: RB6 (TF1): For sub-tests where uplink transport format TF1 (1×336) is used then no adaptation to the difference in downlink TTI (20 ms) and uplink TTI (40ms) is possible as this would require the UE to concatenate 2 SDUs into one PDU. For these sub-tests the UL RLC SDU size is set equal to the payload size of the UL TF under test minus 8 bits (the size of 7 bit length indicator and expansion bit).

NOTE 4: RB6 (TF2): For sub-tests where uplink transport formats TF2 (2×336) is used then to adopt to the difference in downlink TTI (20 ms) and uplink TTI (40ms) the UL RLC SDU size has been chosen such that 2 SDUs will be returned per uplink TTI. I.e. the UL RLC SDU size is set equal to half the payload size of the UL TF under test minus 8 bits (the size of 7 bit length indicator and expansion bit).

14.2.51b.1.4 Test requirements

See 14.1.2 for definition of step 10 and step 15.

1. At step 10 the UE shall send RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE.

2. At step 15a and step 15b the UE transmitted transport format shall be within the set of restricted TFCIs as specified for the actual sub-test.

3. At step 15a and step 15b the UE shall return

  • for sub-test 1: RLC SDUs on RB6 having the same content as sent by SS; and no data shall be received on RB5.
  • for sub-test 2: RLC SDUs on RB6 having the first 312 bits equal to the content of the test data sent by the SS in downlink; and no data shall be received on RB5.
  • for sub-test 3, 4: RLC SDUs on RB5 having the same content as sent by SS; and RLC SDUs on RB6 having the content equal to the first 312 bits of the test data sent by the SS in downlink

– for sub-test 5: RLC SDUs on RB5 having the same content as sent by SS; and no data shall be received on RB6.

  • for sub-test 7 : RLC SDUs on RB5 having the same content as sent by SS; and RLC SDUs on RB6 having the content equal to the first 312 bits of the test data sent by the SS in downlink
  • for sub-test 8 , 9 : RLC SDUs on RB5 having the same content as sent by SS; and RLC SDUs on RB6 having the content equal to the first 312 bits of the test data sent by the SS in downlink

4. At step 15b the UE shall send at least one MEASUREMENT REPORT message.
