6.6.1G.1.4.2 Test procedure

The characteristic of the filter shall be approximately Gaussian (typical spectrum analyzer filter). Other methods to measure the power spectrum distribution are allowed. The measuring duration is one active uplink subframe.
3. Calculate the total power within the range of all frequencies measured in ‘2)’ and save this value as "Total Power".
4. Sum up the power upward from the lower boundary of the measured frequency range in ‘2)’ and seek the limit frequency point by which this sum becomes 0,5 % of "Total Power" and save this point as "Lower Frequency".
5. Sum up the power downward from the upper boundary of the measured frequency range in ‘2)’ and seek the limit frequency point by which this sum becomes 0,5 % of "Total Power" and save this point as "Upper Frequency".

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 continuously power control "up" commands to the UE until the UE transmits at PUMAX level. Configure the UE to transmit PSCCH and PSSCH with the PUMAX level of each test points.
3. Measure the power spectrum distribution of both concurrent bands within two times or more range over the requirement for Occupied Bandwidth specification centring on the current carrier frequency. The characteristic of the filter shall be approximately Gaussian (typical spectrum analyzer filter). Other methods to measure the power spectrum distribution are allowed. The measuring duration is one active uplink subframe. On E-UTRA carrier, the TDD slots with transient periods are not under test.
4. Calculate the total power within the range of all frequencies measured in ‘3)’ and save this value as "Total Power" for both concurrent bands.
5. Sum up the power upward from the lower boundary of the measured frequency range in ‘3)’ and seek the limit frequency point by which this sum becomes 0,5 % of "Total Power" and save this point as "Lower Frequency" for both concurrent bands.
6. Sum up the power downward from the upper boundary of the measured frequency range in ‘3)’ and seek the limit frequency point by which this sum becomes 0,5 % of "Total Power" and save this point as "Upper Frequency" for both concurrent bands.
7. Calculate the difference ("Upper Frequency" "Lower Frequency" = "Occupied Bandwidth") between two limit frequencies obtained in ‘5)’ and ‘6)’ for both concurrent bands.
