4.4.1 Simulated network scenarios

36.5083GPPCommon test environments for User Equipment (UE) conformance testingEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA) and Evolved Packet Core (EPC)Release 17TS

The UE will eventually have to operate in either single mode networks (FDD or TDD), dual mode networks (FDD+TDD), or inter-RAT networks ((FDD or TDD) + (UTRA FDD, UTRA TDD, GSM, HRPD or 1xRTT)).

For

Simulated network scenarios to be tested are listed in this sub clause.

NOTE 1: The number of cells specified does not necessarily correspond to the maximum number of resources to be configured simultaneously in test equipment. Please refer to Table 6.1-1 for such information.

NOTE 2: For NAS test cases see sub clause 6.3.2.
