6.3.4.1 General ON/OFF time mask
6.3.4.1.1 Test purpose
To verify that the general ON/OFF time mask meets the requirements given in 6.3.4.1.5.
The time mask for transmit ON/OFF defines the ramping time allowed for the UE between transmit OFF power and transmit ON power.
Transmission of the wrong power increases interference to other channels, or increases transmission errors in the uplink channel.
6.3.4.1.2 Test applicability
This test applies to all types of E-UTRA UE release 8 and forward.
6.3.4.1.3 Minimum conformance requirement
The General ON/OFF time mask defines the observation period between Transmit OFF and ON power and between Transmit ON and OFF power. ON/OFF scenarios include; the beginning or end of DTX, measurement gap, contiguous, and non contiguous transmission
The OFF power measurement period is defined in a duration of at least one sub-frame excluding any transient periods. The ON power is defined as the mean power over one sub-frame excluding any transient period.
There are no additional requirements on UE transmit power beyond that which is required in clause 6.2.2 and clause 6.6.2.3.

6.3.4.1.4 Test description
6.3.4.1.4.1 Initial conditions
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 table 5.4.2.1-1. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each channel bandwidth, and are shown in table 6.3.4.1.4.1-1. The details of the uplink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annexes A.2. Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2

6.3.4.2.2 SRS time mask
6.3.4.2.2.1 Test purpose
To verify that the SRS time mask meets the requirements given in 6.3.4.2.2.5.
The time mask for SRS time mask defines the ramping time allowed for the UE between transmit OFF power and transmit ON power when transmitting the SRS.
Transmission of the wrong power increases interference to other channels, or increases transmission errors in the uplink channel.
6.3.4.2.2.2 Test applicability
This test applies to all types of E-UTRA UE release 8 and forward.
6.3.4.2.2.3 Minimum conformance requirement
In the case a single SRS transmission, the ON power is defined as the mean power for each symbol duration excluding any transient period. Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-1.
In the case a dual SRS transmission, the ON power is defined as the mean power for each symbol duration excluding any transient period. Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-2.

6.3.4.2.2.4 Test description
6.3.4.2.2.4.1 Initial conditions
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 table 5.4.2.1-1. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each channel bandwidth, and are shown in table 6.3.4.2.2.4.1-1. The details of the uplink and downlink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annexes A.2 and A.3.

1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.3.
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. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.
5. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 6.3.4.2.2.4.3. Note that PDCCH DCI format 0 sent after resetting uplink power with RRC Connection Reconfiguration, should have TPC command 0dB.
6.3.4.2.2.4.2 Test procedure
1. For FDD UE, the SS measure the UE transmission OFF power during the 13 symbols preceding the SRS symbol excluding a transient period of 20 µs according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-1. For TDD UE, the SS measure the UE transmission OFF power during the 8 symbols preceding the two SRS symbols excluding a transient period of 20µs according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-2.
2. Measure the output power of the transmitted SRS according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-1 for FDD UE and according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-2 for TDD UE, The transient periods are excluded from measurement accordingly.
3. Measure the UE transmission OFF power during the sub-frame following the SRS under test, excluding a transient period of 20 µs according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-1 for FDD UE and according to Figure 6.3.4.2.2.3-2 for TDD UE.
