Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL and V2X RMCs.
2. Send continuous uplink power control "down" commands in the uplink scheduling information to the UE to ensure that the UE transmits at its minimum output power.
3. Measure the mean power of each component carrier in the V2X con-current band configuration. The period of measurement shall be at least continuous duration of one sub-frame (1ms). On E-UTRA carrier, the TDD slots with transient periods are not under test.
