Table 8.2.1.4 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings between columns "T0" and "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies a reverse in the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 2.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state in cell 1. SS then send a MEASUREMENT CONTROL message to UE. The UE shall perform periodical traffic volume measurement according to this message and then transmit MEASUREMENT REPORT message back to SS. Then the SS configures its downlink transmission power settings according to column "T1" in table 8.2.1.4. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE specifying a configuration in cell 2 and SS keeps its old dedicated channel configuration in cell 1. Then after T312 expiry, the UE reverts to the old configuration and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP FAILURE message on the DCCH in cell 1 using AM RLC which is set to "physical channel failure" in IE "failure cause". UE shall continue its traffic volume measurement and send MEASUREMENT REPORT messages back to SS periodically.

SS switches the power settings between columns "T0" and "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies a reverse in the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in idle mode state of cell 1 and the SS configures its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.1.22. The SS and UE execute procedure P5. Next The SS and the UE execute procedure P9. The SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T1"and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message with no IE "Frequency info" to the UE. After the UE receives this message, it transits from CELL_DCH in cell 1 to CELL_FACH state in cell 6, and initiates CELL UPDATE procedure with IE "Cell update cause" set to "cell reselection". Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC in cell 6. The SS calls for generic procedure C.2 to check that UE is in CELL_FACH state.

Table 8.2.1.23 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings from columns "T0" to "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in CELL_FACH state of cell 1 and the SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.1.23. The SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T1" and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message including new frequency information to the UE. After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes the required radio access bearers and moves into cell 6. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. The SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

NOTE: If the UE fails the test because of a failure to reselect to a right cell, then the operator may re-run the test.

Table 8.2.1.27 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. Only signalling radio bearers have been established in cell 1.

SS configures its downlink transmission power settings according to columns "T1" in table 8.2.1.27. UE shall be triggered to transmit a MEASUREMENT REPORT message which includes the primary scrambling code for cell 2 according to IE "Intra-frequency event identity", which is set to ‘1a’ in the SYSTEM INFORMATION BLOCK TYPE 11. The SS transmits to the UE an ACTIVE SET UPDATE message in cell 1 on DCCH using AM RLC to add cell 2 to the active set. When the UE receives this message, the UE shall configure layer 1 to begin reception without affecting the current uplink and downlink activities of existing radio links. The UE shall transmit an ACTIVE SET UPDATE COMPLETE message to the SS on the uplink DCCH using AM RLC.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE . This message requests the establishment of radio access bearer mapped to HS-DSCH. After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes a radio access bearer and cell 1 shall be assigned as the serving HS-DSCH cell. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Table 8.2.1.29 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. Column marked "T0" denote the initial conditions.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state, after the test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. Before step1, only signalling radio bearers have been established. SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.1.29. Then SS switches its downlink transmission power setting to columns "T1".

The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of radio access bearer mapped to HS-DSCH using a 384 kbps uplink DCH restricted to 64 kbps (FDD) or a 64kbps uplink DCH restricted to 16kbps (1.28Mcps TDD). After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes a radio access bearer in cell 6. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

8.2.1.30.3 Test purpose

To confirm that the UE establishes a radio bearer mapped to HS-DSCH and starts HS-DSCH reception in conjunction with a interfrequency hard handover without prior measurement on the target frequency according to the received RADIO BEARER SETUP message.

8.2.1.30.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells–Cells 1 and 6 are active.

UE: PS_DCCH_DCH (state 6-7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108.

Related ICS/IXIT statement(s)

– UE supports FDD or TDD

– UE supports HS-PDSCH

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. Only signalling radio bearers have been established in cell 1.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH as well as a timing re-initialised interfrequency hard handover to cell 6. After the UE receives this message, it establishes the radio bearer and the physical channels in cell 6. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC in cell 6. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_FACH state. Only signalling radio bearers have been established.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of radio access bearer mapped to HS-DSCH using a 384 kbps uplink DCH restricted to 64 kbps for FDD,3.84 Mcps TDD and 7.68Mcps TDD or using 64 kbps uplink DCH for 1.28Mcps TDD. After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes a radio access bearer. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Table 8.2.1.32 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings from columns "T0" to "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in CELL_FACH state of cell 1 and only signalling radio bearers have been established. SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns "T0" in table 8.2.1.32. The SS switches its downlink transmission power settings to columns "T1".

The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of radio access bearer mapped to HS-DSCH using a 384 kbps and uplink DCH restricted to 64 kbps for FDD, 3.84 Mcps TDD and 7.68 Mcps TDD or using 64 kbps uplink DCH for 1.28Mcps TDD. After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes a radio access bearer in cell 6. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC.

(Note: From TS 25.433 clause 8.3.5.1)

The Unsynchronised Radio Link Reconfiguration procedure is used to reconfigure Radio Link(s) related to one UE-UTRAN connection within a Node B.

The Unsynchronised Radio Link Reconfiguration procedure is used when there is no need to synchronise the time of the switching from the old to the new configuration in one Node B used for a UE-UTRAN connection with any other Node B also used for the UE–UTRAN connection.

Table 8.2.1.34 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. Column marked “T0” denote the initial conditions.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state, after the test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. Before step 1, only signalling radio bearers have been established. SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns “T0” in table 8.2.1.34. Then SS switches its downlink transmission power setting to columns “T1”.

The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of radio access bearer. After the UE receives this message, it configures them and establishes a radio access bearer in cell6. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. Only signalling radio bearers have been established.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

To confirm that the UE establishes a radio bearer mapped to HS-DSCH and E-DCH according to the received RADIO BEARER SETUP message in the multi-frequency network environment.

8.2.1.35a.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 1 cell, 3 frequency (one is primary frequency, others are secondary frequency).

UE: PS_DCCH_DCH (state 6-7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state at the primary frequency. Only signalling radio bearers have been established.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH at the secondary frequency. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC.

8.2.1.36.3 Test purpose

To confirm that the UE performs a hard handover to another frequency, establishes a radio bearer mapped on E-DCH and starts E-DCH transmission according to the received a RADIO BEARER SETUP message. Un-synchronised RB Setup is tested here.

8.2.1.36.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 2 cells – Cell 1 is active and cell 6 is inactive.

UE: PS_DCCH_DCH (state 6-7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108.

Table 8.2.1.36 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings from columns "T0" to "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state of cell 1 and only signalling radio bearers have been established. The SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns “T0” in table 8.2.1.36. Then the SS switches its downlink transmission power setting to columns “T1” and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message including the IE “Frequency info” set to frequency information of cell 6 and IE “Primary CPICH info” set to Primary Scrambling Code which is assigned to P-CPICH of cell. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state of cell 1 and only signalling radio bearers have been established. The SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns “T0” in table 8.2.1.36b. Then the SS switches its downlink transmission power setting to columns “T1” and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message including IE "Frequency info " set as primary frequency of cell 6, IE "Multi-frequency Info " set as one secondary frequency of cell 6 and IE “Cell parameters ID” set as Cell ID of cell 6. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. Only signalling radio bearers have been established, mapped to DPCH.

The test operator is prompted to make an out-going call. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH, with UL DTX configured. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. The UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC. The SS waits to allow sufficient time for DTX cycle 2 to be active, and CQI DTX Timer to expire, and then verifies that the time between 11 consecutive CQI indications is 320ms if 2ms TTI is used, or 400ms if 10ms TTI is used. SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Table 8.2.1.36 illustrates the downlink power to be applied for the 2 cells at various time instants of the test execution. SS switches the power settings from columns "T0" to "T1", whenever the description in multi-cell condition specifies the transmission power settings for cell 1 and cell 6.

The UE is in CELL_DCH state of cell 1 and only signalling radio bearers have been established. The SS has configured its downlink transmission power setting according to columns “T0” in table 8.2.1.36. Then the SS switches its downlink transmission power setting to columns “T1” and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message including the IE “Frequency info” set to frequency information of cell 6 and IE “Primary CPICH info” set to Primary Scrambling Code which is assigned to P-CPICH of cell. This message requests the establishment of a radio bearer with RB mapping to HS-DSCH and E-DCH, with UL DTX configured. After the UE receives this message, it establishes a radio bearer and maps it to the HS-DSCH and E-DCH. Finally the UE transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC.

The SS waits to allow sufficient time for DTX cycle 2 to be active, and CQI DTX Timer to expire, and then verifies that the time between 11 consecutive CQI indications is 320ms if 2ms TTI is used, or 400ms if 10ms TTI is used.

SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.

Test Procedure

The UE is in CELL_DCH state. Before step 1, only signalling radio bearers have been established. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message includes RAB information to configure PS domain RB on E-DCH/HSDPA (with 4C-HSDPA, and 64 QAM simultaneously configured for L1). SRB is mapped to DCH/DCH. After the UE receives this message, it configures RAB accordingly and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC.

To check that the UE has activated 4C HSDPA, the SS sends UE CAPABILITY ENQUIRY on Anchor Carrier Cell using SRB2 mapped onto DCH. The UE shall respond to the message with UE CAPABILITY INFORMATION message sent to Anchor Carrier Cell 1. In that RRC message, it shall include the IE “HS-DSCH physical layer category extension 5”.

UE supports FDD.

8.2.1.48.2 Conformance requirement

The UE shall:

1> be able to receive any of the following messages:

2> RADIO BEARER SETUP message; or

If the UE receives:

– a RADIO BEARER SETUP message; or

it shall:

1> stop and reset timer T324 if running;

1> stop monitoring target cell HS-SCCH;

1> set the variable ORDERED_RECONFIGURATION to TRUE;

In case the UE receives a RADIO BEARER SETUP message with the IE "Specification mode" not set to "Complete Specification", the UE behaviour is unspecified.

The UE shall:

For FDD: in CELL_DCH state, in case the UE receives a Target cell HS-SCCH order the UE shall:

1> ignore RADIO BEARER SETUP, RADIO BEARER RECONFIGURATION, TRANSPORT CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION or PHYSICAL CHANNEL RECONFIGURATION messages as described in sub clause 8.6.3.11.

If after state transition the UE enters CELL_DCH state, the UE shall, after the state transition:

1> in FDD; or

2> remove any C-RNTI from MAC;

2> clear the variable C_RNTI.

1> determine the value for the READY_FOR_COMMON_EDCH variable and take the corresponding actions as described in sub clause 8.5.47;

1> determine the value for the COMMON_E_DCH_TRANSMISSION variable and take the corresponding actions as described in sub clause 8.5.46;

1> for FDD, determine the value for the READY_FOR_COMMON_ERGCH variable and take the corresponding actions as described in sub clause 8.5.75;

1> if the IE "E-DCH info" was not included in the message:

2> for FDD:

3> stop any E-AGCH, E-RGCH and E-HICH reception procedures;

3> stop any E-DPCCH and E-DPDCH transmission procedures;

3> act as if the IE "MAC-es/e reset indicator" was received and set to TRUE;

3> release all E-DCH HARQ resources;

3> no longer consider any radio link to be the serving E-DCH radio link.

If the UE was in CELL_DCH state upon reception of the reconfiguration message and remains in CELL_DCH state, the UE shall:

1> if the IE "Uplink DPCH Info" is absent, not change its current UL Physical channel configuration;

1> if "DPCH frame offset" is included for one or more RLs in the active set, and the reconfiguration procedure does not request a timing reinitialized hard handover (see subclause 8.3.5.1):

2> use its value to determine the beginning of the DPCH or F-DPCH frame in accordance with the following:

3> if the received IE "DPCH frame offset" is across the value range border compared to the DPCH or F-DPCH frame offset currently used by the UE:

4> consider it to be a request to adjust the timing with 256 chips across the frame border (e.g. if the UE receives value 0 while the value currently used is 38144 consider this as a request to adjust the timing with +256 chips).

3> if after taking into account value range borders, the received IE "DPCH frame offset" corresponds to a request to adjust the timing with a step exceeding 256 chips:

4> set the variable INVALID_CONFIGURATION to TRUE.

3> and the procedure ends.

2> adjust the radio link timing accordingly.

The UE shall transmit a response message as specified in sub clause 8.2.2.4, setting the information elements as specified below. The UE shall:

1> if IE "RRC state indicator" is set to "CELL_DCH":

2> if the variable DEFERRED_MEASUREMENT_STATUS is set to TRUE:

3> if System Information Block type 11 is scheduled on the BCCH and the UE has not read nor stored the IEs present in this System Information Block, or

3> if System Information Block type 11bis is scheduled on the BCCH and the UE has not read nor stored the IEs present in this System Information Block, or

3> if System Information Block type 11ter is scheduled on the BCCH and the UE has not read nor stored the IEs present in this System Information Block, or

3> if System Information Block type 12 is scheduled on the BCCH and the UE has not read nor stored the IEs present in this System Information Block:

4> include IE "Deferred measurement control reading".

If after state transition the UE enters CELL_DCH state, the UE shall, after the state transition:

1> if the IE "Deferred measurement control reading" was included in the response message:

2> clear the variable CELL_INFO_LIST.

In case the procedure was triggered by reception of a RADIO BEARER SETUP message, the UE shall:

1> transmit a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE as response message on the uplink DCCH using AM RLC.

The UE shall:

1> set the variable ORDERED_RECONFIGURATION to FALSE;

1> if the received reconfiguration message contained the IE "Ciphering mode info":

2> resume data transmission on any suspended radio bearer and signalling radio bearer mapped on RLC-AM or RLC-UM;

2> set the IE "Reconfiguration" in the variable CIPHERING_STATUS to FALSE; and

2> clear the variable RB_UPLINK_CIPHERING_ACTIVATION_TIME_INFO.

1> if the received reconfiguration message contained the IE "Integrity protection mode info":

2> allow the transmission of RRC messages on all signalling radio bearers with any RRC SN;

2> set "Uplink RRC Message sequence number" for signalling radio bearer RB0 in the variable INTEGRITY_PROTECTION_INFO to a value such that next RRC message to be sent on uplink RB0 will use the new integrity protection configuration;

2> set the IE "Reconfiguration" in the variable INTEGRITY_PROTECTION_INFO to FALSE; and

2> clear the variable INTEGRITY_PROTECTION_ACTIVATION_INFO.

1> clear the variable PDCP_SN_INFO;

1> clear the variable START_VALUE_TO_TRANSMIT;

1> clear the variable SECURITY_MODIFICATION.

8.2.1.48.3 Test purpose

To confirm that the UE establishes radio bearer, mapped to DCH, transits from CELL_DCH to CELL_DCH state, and starts DCH Enhancements in Full Mode according to the received RADIO BEARER SETUP message.

8.2.1.48.4 Method of test

Initial Condition

System Simulator: 1 cell –Cell 1

UE: Idle state (state 7) as specified in clause 7.4 of TS 34.108, on the CS/PS domain supported by the UE.

Related ICS/IXIT statement(s)

– UE supports FDD

– UE category supports DCH Enhancements in Full Mode

Test Procedure

The UE is in idle state. Before step 1, only signalling radio bearers have been established. The SS transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP message to the UE. This message includes RAB information to configure CS domain RB on DCH (with DCH Enhancements configured for L1). SRB is mapped to DCH/DCH. After the UE receives this message, it configures RAB accordingly and transmits a RADIO BEARER SETUP COMPLETE message using AM RLC.

SS calls for generic procedure C.3 to check that UE is in CELL_DCH state.
