Note 1: Void

Note 2: For transmission bandwidths (Figure 5.4.2-1) confined within FUL_low and FUL_low + 4 MHz or FUL_high – 4 MHz and FUL_high, the maximum output power requirement is relaxed by reducing the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB

Note 3: PPowerClass is the maximum UE power specified without taking into account the tolerance

Note 4: For the UE which supports both Band 11 and Band 21 operating frequencies, the tolerance is FFS.

Note 5: When NS_20 is signalled, the total output power within 2000-2005 MHz shall be limited to 7 dBm.

Note 6: For a UE that supports both Band 18 and Band 26, the maximum output power requirement is relaxed by reducing the lower tolerance limit by 1.5dB for transmission bandwidths confined within 815 MHz and 818 MHz

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 clause 6.2.2.

6.2.2_s.4 Test description

6.2.2_s.4.1 Initial condition

Initial conditions are a set of test configurations the UE needs to be tested in and the steps for the SS to take with the UE to reach the correct measurement state.

The initial test configurations consist of environmental conditions, test frequencies, and channel bandwidths based on E-UTRA operating bands specified in Table 5.4.2.1-1. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each channel bandwidth, and are shown in table 6.2.2_s.4.1-1. The details of the uplink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annexe A.2. Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.

Note 1: Test Channel Bandwidths are checked separately for each E-UTRA band, the applicable channel bandwidths are specified in Table 5.4.2.1-1.

Note 2: For E-UTRA bands not applied with Note 2 in Table 6.2.2_s.3-1:
The 1 RB allocation shall be tested at RB#0 for low and mid range, RB #max for high range test frequency.
The RBstart of non-1RB allocation shall be RB #0 for low and mid range, RB# (max +1 – RB allocation) for high range test frequency.

Note 3: For E-UTRA bands applied with Note 2 in Table 6.2.2_s.3-1:
If the test channel bandwidth is larger than 4MHz, then the 1 RB allocation shall be tested at both RB #0 and RB #max.
If the test channel bandwidth is smaller or equal to 4MHz, then the 1 RB allocation shall be tested at RB #0.
If the test channel bandwidth = (FUL_high – FUL_low) specified by the operating band, then only one frequency range shall be tested and the 1 RB allocation shall be tested at RB #0, RB # and RB #max.
For non-1RB allocation, test frequency is middle range, and the RBstart shall be RB #0.

1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A Figure A.3.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.4.3.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C.0, C.1, and C.3.0, and uplink signals according to Annex H.1 and H.3.0.

4. The UL Reference Measurement channel is set according to Table 6.2.2_s.4.1-1.

5. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.

6. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 6.2.2_s.4.3.

6.2.2_s.4.2 Test procedure

1. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via SPDCCH DCI format 7-0A for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according to Table 6.2.2_s.4.1-1. Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

2. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands in every uplink scheduling information to the UE; allow at least 200ms for the UE to reach PUMAX level.

3. Measure the mean power of the UE in the channel bandwidth of the radio access mode. The period of measurement shall be at least the continuous duration of 7 OS (0.5ms) for slot TTI and 2/3 OS for subslot TTI. For TDD slots with transient periods are not under test.

6.2.2_s.4.3 Message contents

Message contents are according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.6 with the following exceptions:
