6.2.4EC Additional Maximum Power Reduction (A-MPR) for UE category M2

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

Editor’s note: This clause is incomplete. The following aspects are either missing or not yet determined:

  • NS_03 (B2, B4), NS_04 (B41), NS_07 (B13), NS_12 (B26), NS_13 (B26), NS_14 (B26), NS_15 (B26), NS_16 (B27), NS_17 (B28) and NS_18 (B28): Minimum requirements in 36.101 are incomplete. Test configuration table and test requirements are missing

6.2.4EC.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 6.2.2EC-1. Unless stated otherwise, an A-MPR of 0 dB shall be used.

6.2.4EC.2 Test applicability

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.2.2EC Additional Spectrum Emission Mask for network signalled values NS_03, NS_04, NS_06, NS_07 and NS_35 to all types of E-UTRA UE release 14 and forward of UE category M2.

The requirements of this test apply in test case 6.6.3EC.3 Additional Spurious Emissions for network signalled values NS_05, NS_07, NS_08, NS_09, NS_12, NS_13, NS_14, NS_15, NS_16, NS_17, NS_18, NS_22, NS_23 to all types of E-UTRA UE release 14 and forward of UE category M2.

NOTE: As a result TC 6.2.4EC 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.

6.2.4EC.3 Minimum conformance requirements

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 6.2.2EA-1. Unless stated otherwise, an A-MPR of 0 dB shall be used.

For UE Power Class 3 and 5 the specific requirements and identified subclauses are specified in Table 6.2.4EC.3-1 along with the allowed A-MPR values that may be used to meet these requirements. The allowed A-MPR values specified below in Table 6.2.4EC.3-1 are in addition to the allowed MPR requirements specified in subclause 6.2.3EC.3.

No other A-MPR requirement than those specified in table 6.2.4E-1, table 6.2.4E-2, table 6.2.4E-6 and table 6.2.4E-7 applies to category M1 and M2 UE.

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 clause 6.2.4 and clause 6.2.4E.

6.2.4EC.4 Test description

6.2.4EC.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 sub-clause 5.2E. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each channel bandwidth, and are shown in Table 6.2.4EC.4.1-1 to 6.2.4EC.4.1-16. The details of the uplink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annex A.2. Configurations of PDSCH and MPDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.

Note 1: Denotes the lowest narrowband index in the channel bandwidth where the wideband shall be placed. The allocation is contiguous, starting from the lowest narrowband index. Narrowband, Narrowband index and Wideband are defined in TS 36.211 [8], 5.2.7.

Note 2: Test Channel Bandwidths are checked separately for each E-UTRA band, the applicable channel bandwidths are specified in Table 5.4.2.1-1.

Note 3: The RBstart of partial RB allocation shall be RB#0 and RB# (6 – (RB allocation mod 6)) of the narrowband.

Note 4: Only for power class 3 UE

Note 5: Only for power class 5 UE

1. 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.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.4.3.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C.0, C.1, and C.3.0, and uplink signals according to Annex H.1 and H.3.0.

4. The UL Reference Measurement channel is set according to Table 6.2.4EC.4.1-1 to Table 6.2.4EC.4.1-16.

5. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.

6. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF-CE according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2AA. Message contents are defined in clause 6.2.4EC.4.3.

6.2.4EC.4.2 Test procedure

1. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via M-PDCCH DCI format 6-0A for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according to the applicable table from Table 6.2.4EC.4.1-1 to Table 6.2.4EC.4.1-16. 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 one sub-frame (1ms). For HD-FDD slots with transient periods and Half-duplex guard subframe are not under test.

6.2.4EC.4.3 Message contents

Message contents are according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.6 with the condition CEModeA and with the same exceptions as in clauses 6.2.4.4.3.1 to 6.2.4.4.3.30 for each network signalled value.

6.2.4EC.5 Test requirement

The maximum output power, derived in step 3 shall be within the range prescribed by the nominal maximum output power and tolerance in the applicable table from Table 6.2.4EC.5-1 to Table 6.2.4EC.5-16. The allowed A-MPR values specified in Table 6.2.4EC.3-1 are in addition to the allowed MPR requirements specified in clause 6.2.3EC. For the UE maximum output power modified by MPR and/or A-MPR, the power limits specified in Table 6.2.5EA.3-1 and 6.2.5EA.3-2 apply.
