The test points are applied to UE category and bandwidth combination with maximum aggregated bandwidth as specified inTable 8.7.2-7. The TB success rate shall be sustained during at least 300 frames. For UE supporting 256QAM, the requirement in Table 8.7.2-3 is not applicable.

For UE supporting 256QAM and category 9/10 and category 13, the requirements are specified in both Table 8.7.2-3 and Table 8.7.2-6, with the addition of the parameters in Table 8.7.2-2 and in Table 8.7.2-5 respectivly. The downlink physical channel setup according to Annex C.3.2. The test points are applied to UE category and bandwidth combination with maximum aggregated bandwidth as specified inTable 8.7.2-4 and in Table 8.7.2-7 for the category 9/10 and category 13, the TB success rate shall be sustained during at least 300 frames.

The test coverage for different number of component carriers is defined in 8.1.2.4.

Note 1: For 2 layer transmissions, 2 transport blocks are received within a TTI.

Note 2: 71112 bits for sub-frame 5.

Note 3: The TB success rate is defined as TB success rate = 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.

Note 1: If DL category is signalled by the UE under test, then select the test point according to UE DL Category. Otherwise, select the test point according to the UE category signalled.

Note 2: For non-CA UE, test is selected for maximum supported bandwidth.

Note 3: Void.

Note 4: If the intra-band contiguous CA is the only CA configuration supported by category 3 or 4 UE, single carrier test is selected.

Note 5: The applicability of requirements for different CA configurations and bandwidth combination sets is defined in 8.1.2.3.
