Note 1: Fraction of nominal maximum throughput is calculated based on random transmission occasions of PDSCH. Note 2: An UE is required to fulfill only one test of Sub-test 1-4 depending on UE capabilities of endingDwPTS and secondSlotStartingPosition. For an UE not supporting both endingDwPTS and secondSlotStartingPosition, it is required to fulfill Sub-test 1; For an UE not supporting endingDwPTS but supporting secondSlotStartingPosition, it is required to fulfill Sub-test 2; For an UE supporting endingDwPTS but not supporting secondSlotStartingPosition, it is required to fulfil Sub-test 3; and For an UE supporting both endingDwPTS and secondSlotStartingPosition, it is required to fulfill Sub-test 4. |
