6.3.5E.1 Absolute power tolerance
The absolute power tolerance requirements specified in subclause 6.3.5.1 apply, wherein
– The Maximum output power requirements are specified in subclause 6.2.2E
– The Minimum output power requirements are specified in subclause 6.3.2
– The requirements for configured transmitted power are specified in subclause 6.2.5.
6.3.5E.2 Relative Power tolerance
The relative power tolerance requirements specified in subclause 6.3.5.2 apply, wherein
– The Maximum output power requirements are specified in subclause 6.2.2E
– The Minimum output power requirements are specified in subclause 6.3.2
– The requirements for configured transmitted power are specified in subclause 6.2.5.
6.3.5E.3 Aggregate power control tolerance
Aggregate power control tolerance is the ability of a UE to maintain its power in non-contiguous transmission in response to 0 dB TPC commands with respect to the first UE transmission, when the power control parameters specified in TS 36.213 are constant.
For category M1 and M2 TDD and FD-FDD UEs, the aggregate power control tolerance requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-0 apply. For category M1 and M2 HD-FDD UEs and for continuous uplink transmissions of duration ≤ 64 ms, the aggregate power control tolerance requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-0 apply.
For category M1 and M2 HD-FDD UEs and for continuous uplink transmissions of duration > 64 ms, the aggregate power control tolerance requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-1 apply.
6.3.5E.3.1 Minimum requirement
The category M1 and M2 TDD and FD-FDD UEs shall meet the requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-0 for aggregate power control over the power range bounded by the minimum output power as defined in subclause 6.3.2, the maximum output power as defined in subclause 6.2.2E, and the requirements for configured transmitted power are specified in subclause 6.2.5.
The category M1 and M2 HD-FDD UEs and for continuous uplink transmissions of duration ≤ 64 ms, shall meet the requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-0 for aggregate power control over the power range bounded by the minimum output power as defined in subclause 6.3.2, the maximum output power as defined in subclause 6.2.2E, and the requirements for configured transmitted power are specified in subclause 6.2.5.

NOTE 1: The UE transmission gap is 4 ms for full-duplex FDD and TDD. For UE of half-duplex FDD with the channel bandwidth 5 MHz / 10 MHz / 15 MHz / 20 MHz, the transmission gap is 1 ms after subframe #4 and 7 ms after subframe #6. For UE of half-duplex FDD with the CBW 1.4 / 3 MHz, the transmission gap is 9 ms. TPC command is transmitted via MPDCCH 4 subframes preceding each PUCCH/PUSCH transmission. NOTE 2: For UE of half-duplex FDD with the CBW 1.4 / 3 MHz, the test interval is 41 ms. |
The category M1 and M2 HD-FDD UE and for continuous uplink transmissions of duration > 64 ms shall meet the requirements specified in Table 6.3.5E.3.1-1 for aggregate power control over the power range bounded by the minimum output power as defined in subclause 6.3.2 and the maximum output power as defined in subclause 6.2.2E.
