6.2.3_1 Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for HPUE

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

6.2.3_1.1 Test purpose

Same test purpose as in clause 6.2.3.1 with the following exception:

– Instead of Table 6.2.3.3-1 🡪 use Table 6.2.3_1.3-1

6.2.3_1.2 Test applicability

The requirements of this test apply in test cases 6.6.2.3_1 Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio for HPUE to all types of E-UTRA Power Class 1 or Power Class 2 UE release 10 and forward.

NOTE: As a result TC 6.2.3_1 has not been included in the test case applicability table 4.1-1, TS 36.521-2. This does not preclude the test from being used for R&D or other purposes if deemed useful.

6.2.3_1.3 Minimum conformance requirements

For UE Power Class 1 and 2, the allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power in Table 6.2.2_1.3-1 due to higher order modulation and transmit bandwidth configuration (resource blocks) is specified in Table 6.2.3_1.3-1.

For a power class 2 capable UE operating on Band 41, when an IE P-max as defined in [5] of 23 dBm or lower is indicated in the cell or if the TDD frame configuration is 0 or 6, the requirements for power class 2 are not applicable, and the corresponding requirements for a power class 3 UE shall apply.

For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR, the power limits specified in subclause 6.2.5_1.3 apply.

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 clause 6.2.3.

Note 1: 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 2: For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR, the power limits specified in Table 6.2.5.3-1 apply
