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 requirements are specified in Table 8.7.6-2, with the addition of the parameters in Table 8.7.6-1 and 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 8.7.6-3. The TB success rate across CGs shall be sustained during at least 300 frames.
For UE supporting 256QAM, the requirements are specified in Table 8.7.6-4, with the addition of the parameters in Table 8.7.6-1 and 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 8.7.6-5. The TB success rate across CGs shall be sustained during at least 300 frames. For UE supporting 256QAM, the requirements in Table 8.7.6-2 are not applicable.
The applicability of ther requirements are specified in Clause 8.1.2.3A.

Note 1: For 2 layer transmissions, 2 transport blocks are received within a TTI. Note 2: For the configuration of DRB type of Split bearer, the TB success rate across CGs 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. All the above numbers of transmitted, retransmitted or correctly received DL transport blocks are calculated as the sum of the numbers of DL transport blockes across all the CGs used for DC transmission or reception. Note 3: For the configuration of DRB type of SCG bearer, the TB success rate across CGs 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. All the above numbers of transmitted, retransmitted or correctly received DL transport blocks are calculated as the sum of the numbers of DL transport blockes per CG used for DC transmission or reception, separately. Note 4: 35160 bits for sub-frame 5. Note 5: 71112 bits for sub-frame 5. Note 6: 52752 bits for sub-frame 5. |
