6.3.3A.0 Minimum conformance requirements
For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to two E-UTRA bands, transmit OFF power requirement is defined per carrier and the requirement is specified in subclause 6.3.3.3.
For intra-band contiguous and non-contiguous carrier aggregation the transmit OFF power is defined as the mean power in a duration of at least one sub-frame (1ms) excluding any transient periods. The transmit OFF power shall not exceed the values specified in Table 6.3.3A.0-1.

For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to two E-UTRA bands and intra-band contiguous and non-contiguous carrier aggregation, transmit OFF power is defined as the mean power per component carrier when the transmitter is OFF on all component carriers. The transmitter is considered to be OFF when the UE is not allowed to transmit or during periods when the UE is not transmitting a sub-frame. During measurements gaps, the UE is not considered to be OFF.
The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 [2] clause 6.3.3A.
6.3.3A.1 UE Transmit OFF power for CA (intra-band contiguous DL CA and UL CA)
6.3.3A.1.1 Test purpose
For intra-band contiguous carrier aggregation the transmit OFF power is defined as the mean power per component carrier when the transmitter is OFF on both component carriers. The transmitter is considered to be OFF when the UE is not allowed to transmit or during periods when the UE is not transmitting a sub-frame. During measurements gaps, the UE is not considered to be OFF.
To verify that the UE transmit OFF power for CA is lower than the value specified in the test requirement.
