4.3.4.1 Downlink signal levels

The downlink power settings in table 4.3.4.1-1 are used unless otherwise specified in a test case.

Note 1: The channel bandwidth powers are informative, based on -85dBm/15kHz RS_EPRE, then scaled according to the number of RBs and rounded to the nearest integer dBm value. Full RE allocation with no boost or deboost is assumed.

Note 2: The power level is specified at each UE Rx antenna.

It is [FFS] whether there is a requirement to specify constant power throughout all OFDM symbols, and if so how unallocated Resource elements should be treated.

The default signal level uncertainty is +/-3dB at each test port, for any level specified. If the uncertainty value is critical for the test purpose a tighter uncertainty is specified for the related test case in TS 36.521-1 [21] Annex F or in TS 36.521-3 [34] Annex F
