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

Tools: ARFCN - Frequency Conversion for 5G NR/LTE/UMTS/GSM

6.2.4E.1 Test purpose

Same test purpose in clause 6.2.4.1.

6.2.4E.2 Test applicability

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.2.2E Additional Spectrum Emission Mask for network signalled values NS_03, NS_04, NS_06 and NS_07 to all types of E-UTRA UE release 12 and forward of UE category 0.

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.3E.3 Additional Spurious Emissions for network signalled values NS_07 and to all types of E-UTRA UE release 12 and forward of UE category 0.

NOTE: As a result TC 6.2.4E 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.

6.2.4E.3 Minimum conformance requirements

Same minimum conformance requirements as in clause 6.2.4.3

6.2.4E.4 Test description

6.2.4E.4.1 Initial condition

Same initial conditions as in clause 6.2.4.4.1 with the following exceptions:

– Instead of Tables 6.2.4.4.1-1 to 6.2.4.4.1-24🡪 use Table 6.2.4E.4.1-1 to 6.2.4E.4.1-5.

– 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.
