0 for UE under test supporting synchronous dual connectivity; 500 for UE under test supporting both asynchronous and synchrounous dual connectivity (Note 1) |
Note 1: Asynchronous and synchrous dual connectivity are defined in TS36.300 [11]. Note 2: If the UE supports both SCG bearer and Split bearer, the Split bearer is configured. |
For UE not supporting 256QAM, the TB success rate shall be higher than 85% when PDSCH are scheduled with FRC in Table 8.7.14-2 with the downlink physical channel setup according to Annex C.3.2.
For UE supporting 256QAM, the TB success rate shall be higher than 85% when PDSCH are scheduled with FRC in Table 8.7.14-3 with the downlink physical channel setup according to Annex C.3.2. For UE supporting 256QAM, the requirement with 64QAM is not applicable.
The TB success rate is defined as 100%*NDL_correct_rx/ (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx), where NDL_newtx is the number of newly transmitted DL transport blocks, NDL_retx is the number of retransmitted DL transport blocks, and NDL_correct_rx is the number of correctly received DL transport blocks. The TB success rate across CGs shall be sustained during at least 300 frames.

DC configuration, bandwidth combination and MIMO layer on each CC is determined by following procedure.
– Select one DC bandwidth combination among all supported DC configurations with bandwidth combination and MIMO layer on each CC that leads to largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth among all DC bandwidth combinations supported by UE. Equivalent aggregated bandwidth is defined as
where is number of CCs,
and
is MIMO layer and bandwidth of CC
.
– When there are multiple sets of {DC configuration, bandwidth combination, MIMO layer} with same largest aggregated bandwidth, select one among sets with largest number of 4 layer CCs.
