See 14.6.1.1.
14.6.6c.2 Test purpose
To verify radio bearer establishment and correct data transfer for reference radio bearer configuration as specified in TS 34.108, clause 6.10.2.4.5.6 for the QPSK, 16QAM and MIMO case using the downlink enhanced Layer 2 configuration with MAC-ehs and combination of Fixed and Flexible RLC.
14.6.6c.3 Method of test
NOTE: The reference to UE Categories refers to the UE capability as signalled in the Rel-7 IE “HS-DSCH physical layer category extension”. This IE corresponds to the HS-DSCH category supported by the UE when MAC-ehs is configured.
The Streaming / unknown / UL:128 DL: [guaranteed 128, max bit rate depending on UE category] with Fixed RLC and MAC-ehs / PS RAB is referred to as RB5. The Interactive or background / UL:128 DL: [max bit rate depending on UE category] with Flexible RLC and MAC-ehs / PS RAB is referred to as RB6.
The following parameters are specific for this test case and RB5 and RB6:

Sub-tests:
The principle used to select sub-tests has been to cover all uplink and downlink TFS for the Streaming + Interactive Background PS radio bearer. The Streaming UL:128 kbps + Interactive Background UL:128 kbps radio bearer (RB5+RB6) have 40 transport format combinations. As the transport formats where RB5, RB6 or DCCH has no data (TF0 for RB5, RB6 or DCCH) is considered as implicitly tested when the transport format combinations with data is tested then no specific sub-tests for those transport format combinations have been specified. The selected UL TFCI to achieve test coverage of TF1 to TF3 for RB5 and TF1 to TF4 for RB6 are: UL_TFC5 to UL_TFC7, UL_TFC9 to UL_TFC11, UL_TFC13 to UL_TFC15 and UL_TFC17 to UL_TFC19.

NOTE 1: The SS shall configure the RLC transmission and receiver window size depending on the UE category. The values are set to cope with the number of SDUs used in the sub-test and within the UE capabilities for the actual UE category under test. NOTE 2: UL_TFC0, UL_TFC1, UL_TFC4 and UL_TFC20 are part of minimum set of TFCIs. Also the transport format combinations UL_TFC21 and UL_TFC24 using TF1 on either RB5 or RB6 and TF1 on DCCH has been included in the allowed TFCs as those could happen during the sub-test. NOTE 3: See TS 34.109 [10] clause 5.3.2.6.2 for details regarding loopback of RLC SDUs. NOTE 4: The test data size for RB5 and RB6 is dependent on the actual TFRC test point, see the generic test procedure in 14.1.3.5a. NOTE 5: For Subtest 3, when 16QAM/16QAM modulation is executed, test points 33 and above are not applicable. |
|||||||||||
14.6.6c.4 Test requirements
See 14.1.3.5a for definition of the referenced step numbers.
1. At step 12 the UE shall send RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE.
2. At steps 17 to 20 the UE transmitted transport format shall be within the set of restricted TFCIs as specified for the actual sub-test.
3. At step 18 and for each TFRC test point:
The UE shall for each radio bearer return the equal number RLC SDUs as sent by the SS in downlink. If the downlink RLC SDU size is less than the configured UL RLC SDU for the actual sub-test then the UE shall return RLC SDUs where the first bits of each SDU has the same content as the RLC SDUs sent by the SS in downlink. Otherwise the UE shall return RLC SDUs where the SDU has the same content as the first bits of the RLC SDUs sent by the SS in downlink.
NOTE: The generic test procedure as specified in 14.1.3.5a sends either 2 SDU or 8 SDUs depending on the transport block size under tests. For the case when the downlink SDU size is less than the configured UL SDU size then all data is returned otherwise the returned data is truncated.
