6.2.4_s Additional Maximum Power Reduction (A-MPR) for subslot/slot TTI

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

6.2.4_s.1 Test purpose

Additional ACLR and spectrum emission requirements can be signalled by the network to indicate that the UE shall also meet additional requirements in a specific deployment scenario. To meet these additional requirements, Additional Maximum Power Reduction A-MPR is allowed for the output power as specified in Table 6.2.2_s.3-1. Unless stated otherwise, an A-MPR of 0 dB shall be used.

6.2.4_s.2 Test applicability

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.2.2_s Additional Spectrum Emission Mask for network signalled values NS_03, NS_04, NS_06, NS_07, NS_11, NS_20, NS_21, NS_27 and NS_35 to all types of E-UTRA Power Class 3 UE release 15 and forward that support subslot/slot TTI.

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.3.3 Additional Spurious Emissions for network signalled values NS_05, NS_07, NS_08, NS_09, NS_11, NS_12, NS_13, NS_14, NS_15, NS_16, NS_17, NS_18, NS_19, NS_20, NS_21, NS_22, NS_23, NS_24, NS_25, NS_27, NS_28, NS_29, NS_30, NS 31, NS_36, NS_38. NS_39, NS_56 to all types of E-UTRA Power Class 3 UE release 15 and forward that support subslot/slot TTI.

NOTE: As a result TC 6.2.4_s 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.

6.2.4_s.3 Minimum conformance requirements

Same minimum requirements as in clause 6.2.4.3 with the following exceptions:

– Instead of Table 6.2.4.3-4 🡪 use Table 6.2.4_s.3-4

– Instead of Table 6.2.4.3-6 🡪 use Table 6.2.4_s.3-6

– Instead of Table 6.2.4.3-7 🡪 use Table 6.2.4_s.3-7

– Instead of Table 6.2.4.3-21 🡪 use Table 6.2.4_s.3-21

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 [2] clause 6.2.4.

6.2.4_s.4 Test description

6.2.4_s.4.1 Initial condition

Same initial conditions as in clause 6.2.4.4.1.

6.2.4_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 the applicable table from Table 6.2.4.4.1-1 to Table 6.2.4.4.1-26. Since the UE has no payload data to send, the UE transmits uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

2. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands in the uplink scheduling information to the UE until the UE transmits at 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 7 OS (0.5ms) for slot TTI and 2/3 OS for subslot TTI. For TDD slots with transient periods are not under test.
