36.521-13GPPEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)Part 1: Conformance testingRadio transmission and receptionRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) conformance specification

6.2.2EB.1 Test purpose

Same test purpose as in clause 6.2.2.

6.2.2EB.2 Test applicability

This test applies to all types of E-UTRA Power Class 2 and 3 UE release 13 and forward of category 1bis.

6.2.2EB.3 Minimum conformance requirements

The following UE Power Classes defines the maximum output power for any transmission bandwidth within the channel bandwidth. The period of measurement shall be at least one sub frame (1ms).

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 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.

6.2.2EB.4 Test description

6.2.2EB.4.1 Initial conditions

Same initial conditions as in clause 6.2.2.4.1 with the following exceptions:

– Connect the SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508[7] Annex A Figure A.3 using only main UE Tx/Rx antenna.

6.2.2EB.4.2 Test procedure

Same test procedure as in clause 6.2.2.4.2 for Power Class 3 UE.

Same test procedure as in clause 6.2.2_1.4 for Power Class 2 UE.

6.2.2EB.4.3 Message contents

Same message contents as in clause 6.2.2.4.3 for Power Class 3 UE.

Same message contents as in clause 6.2.2_1.4 for Power Class 2 UE.

6.2.2EB.5 Test requirement

The maximum output power, derived in step 3 of clause 6.2.2.4.2 shall be within the range prescribed by the nominal maximum output power and tolerance in Table 6.2.2EB.5-1.
