6.2.3_6.1 Test purpose
Same test purpose as in clause 6.2.3_2.
6.2.3_6.2 Test applicability
The requirements of this test apply in test cases 6.6.2.3_6 Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio for Multi-Cluster PUSCH to E-UTRA UE from release 14 and forward that support UL 256QAM and multi cluster PUSCH within a component carrier for the tested band.
NOTE: As a result TC 6.2.3_6 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_6.3 Minimum conformance requirements
For UE Power Class 1 and 3 transmissions with non-contiguous resource allocation in single component carrier, the allowed Maximum Power Reduction (MPR) for the maximum output power in table 6.2.2.3-1, is specified as follows
MPR = CEIL {MA, 0.5}
Where MA is defined as follows for QPSK, 16 QAM and 64 QAM
MA = 8.00-10.12A ; 0.00< A ≤ 0.33
5.67 – 3.07A ; 0.33< A ≤0.77
3.31 ; 0.77< A ≤1.00
Where MA is defined as follows for 256 QAM
MA = 8.00-10.12A ; 0.00< A ≤ 0.25
5.50 ; 0.25< A < 1.00
Where
A = NRB_alloc / NRB.
CEIL{MA, 0.5} means rounding upwards to closest 0.5dB, i.e. MPR ∈ [3.0, 3.5 4.0 4.5 5.0 5.5 6.0 6.5 7.0 7.5 8.0]
For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR, the power limits specified in subclause 6.2.5 apply.
The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 clause 6.2.3.
6.2.3_6.4 Test description
6.2.3_6.4.1 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 clause 5.4.2.1. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each channel bandwidth, and are shown in table 6.2.3_6.4.1-1. The details of the uplink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annexes A.2. Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.
