Note 1: CA Configuration Test CC Combination settings are checked separately for each CA Configuration, which applicable aggregated channel bandwidths are specified in Table 5.4.2A.1-2.

Note 2: Depending on CA configurations, only the appropriate Uplink RB allocation value according to table 7.3A.3.5-2 for UE supporting one uplink carrier is tested per Test CA configuration.

Note 3: The UL resource blocks shall be located as close as possible to the downlink PCC but confined within the transmission bandwidth configuration for the channel bandwidth (Table 5.4.2-1).

Note 4: The frequencies of PCC and SCC shall be switched and tested in each configuration, according to the UE declared capability for UL support (within CA operation) in the individual bands.

7.3A.3.4.2 Test procedure

1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.1 for all downlink physical channels.

2. The SS shall configure SCC as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4. Message contents are defined in clause 7.3A3.4.3

3. SS activates SCC by sending the activation MAC-CE (Refer TS 36.321 [13], clauses 5.13, 6.1.3.8). Wait for at least 2 seconds (Refer TS 36.133, clauses 8.3.3.2).

4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Tables 7.3A.3.4.1-1 on both PCC and SCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.

5. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via PDCCH DCI format 0 for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according to Table 7.3A.3.4.1-1 on PCC. Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

6. Set the Downlink signal level for PCC and SCC to the appropriate REFSENS value defined in Table 7.3A.3.5-1. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands in the uplink scheduling information to the UE to ensure the UE transmits PUMAX level for at least the duration of the Throughput measurement.

7. Measure the average throughput for each component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.2A.

7.3A.3.4.3 Message contents

Message contents are according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.6 with the following exceptions.

7.3A.3.4.3.1 Message contents exceptions (network signalled value "NS_01")

Message contents according to TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.6 can be used without exceptions.

7.3A.3.4.3.2 Message contents exceptions (network signalled value "NS_06")

1. Information element additionalSpectrumEmission is set to NS_06. This can be set in the SystemInformationblockType2 as part of the cell broadcast message. This exception indicates that the UE shall meet the additional spurious emission requirement for a specific deployment scenario.

Table 7.3A.3.4.3.2-1: SystemInformationBlockType2: Additional spurious emissions test requirement for "NS_06"

Derivation Path: TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.4.3.3, Table 4.4.3.3-1

7.3A.3.5 Test requirement

For inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to one E-UTRA band the throughput shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channels as specified in Annex A.3.2 with parameters specified in Tables 7.3A.3.5-1 and Table 7.3A.3.5-2 (originated from single carrier Tables 7.3.5-1 and 7.3.5-2). The reference sensitivity is defined to be met with both downlink component carriers active and either of the uplink component carriers active.

Note 1: The transmitter shall be set to maximum output power level (Table 7.3A.3.5-2)

Note 2: The reference measurement channel is specified in A.3.2 with one sided dynamic OCNG Pattern OP.1 FDD/TDD/FS3 as described in Annex A.5.1.1/A.5.2.1/A.5.3.1.

Note 3: The signal power is specified per port

Note 4: Reference sensitivity for the high band for which the 3rd harmonic of the low band is within transmission bandwidth, as specified Note 5 in Table 7.3A.0-0a.

Note 5: 5 indicates that the requirement is modified by -0.5 dB when the carrier frequency of the assigned E-UTRA channel bandwidth is within 865-894 MHz.

Note 6: Reference sensitivity for the case that the uplink is active in Band 1 and the separation between the lower edge of the uplink channel in Band 1 and the upper edge of the downlink channel in Band 3 is < 60 MHz

Note 7: Reference sensitivity for the high band for which the 2nd harmonic of the low band is within transmission bandwidth, as specified Note 9 and 10 in Table 7.3A.0-0a.

Note 8: Reference sensitivity for the high band for which the 2nd harmonic of the low band is within transmission bandwidth, as specified Note 11 in Table 7.3A.0-0a.

Note 9: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 19 and the downlink channels in Band 28 are allocated at the middle of the restricted frequency range specified for this CA configuration (Table 5.2A-2). For each channel bandwidth in Band 28, the requirement applies regardless of channel bandwidth in Band 19.

Note 10: The B41 requirements are modified by -0.5dB when carrier frequency of the assigned E-UTRA channel bandwidth is within 2545-2690 MHz.

Note 11: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 41.

Note 12: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 3.

Note 13: Reference sensitivity for the high band for which the 5th harmonic of the low band is within transmission bandwidth, as specified Note 15 and 16 in Table 7.3A.0-0a.

Note 14: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 1.

Note 15: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 40.

Note 16: Reference sensitivity for the high band for which the 4th harmonic of the low band is within transmission bandwidth, as specified Note 12 and 13 in Table 7.3A.0-0a.

Note 17: The requirements do not apply when there is at least one individual RE within the uplink transmission bandwidth of the lower band for which the transmitter harmonic is within the downlink transmission bandwidth of the higher band and a range FHD from lower and higher frequency of the uplink transmission bandwidth multiplied by the harmonic order. Negative FHD reduces the REFSENS exclusion range while positive FHD extends the range. FHD = [30] MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has 2nd harmonic issue. FHD = 15 MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has 3rd harmonic issue. FHD = [10] MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has 4th harmonic issue. FHD = [-20] MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has 6th harmonic issue. FHD = [-30] MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has 7th harmonic issue. FHD = [-40] MHz for the E-UTRA configuration which has for 8th harmonic issue. For band combinations including more than one licensed band with band 46, the value FHD depends on which licensed band is used for uplink transmission.

Note 18: The value FHD in Note 17 shall be scaled as FHD *(NRB/100) according to the uplink configuration defined in Table 7.3A.3.5-2.

Note 19: Applicable only if operation with 4 antenna ports is supported in the band with carrier aggregation configured.

Note 20: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 28.

Note 21: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 7.

Note 22: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 42.

Note 23: These requirements apply when the uplink is active in Band 8.

Note 24: These requirements apply when the lower edge frequency of the 5 MHz uplink channel in Band 71 is located at or below 668 MHz and the downlink channel in Band 2 is located with its upper edge at 1990 MHz. These requirements also apply when the lower edge frequency of the 10 MHz, 15 MHz, or 20 MHz uplink channel in Band 71 is located at or below 668 MHz and the downlink channel in Band 2 is located with its upper edge at 1990 MHz.

Note 25: These requirements apply when there is at least one individual RE within the downlink transmission bandwidth of the victim (lower) band for which the 3rd harmonic is within the uplink transmission bandwidth or the uplink adjacent channel’s transmission bandwidth of an aggressor (higher) band.

For the UE which supports inter-band carrier aggregation configurations the ΔRIB,c in Tables 7.3.3-1A, 7.3.3-1B and 7.3.3-1C shall be applied for applicable bands.

In case the UE supports more than one of the inter-band carrier aggregation configurations and a E-UTRA operating band belongs to more than one inter-band carrier aggregation configurations then:

– When the E-UTRA operating band frequency range is ≤ 1GHz, the applicable additional tolerance shall be the average of the tolerances in Table 7.3.3-1A, truncated to one decimal place that would apply for that operating band among the supported CA configurations. In case there is a harmonic relation between low band UL and high band DL (i.e. bands listed in Table 7.3A.0-0a), then the maximum tolerance among the different supported carrier aggregation configurations involving such band shall be applied

– When the E-UTRA operating band frequency range is >1GHz, the applicable additional tolerance shall be the maximum tolerance in Table 7.3.3-1A that would apply for that operating band among the supported CA configurations

The reference receive sensitivity (REFSENS) requirement for inter-band specified in Table 7.3A.3.5-1 shall be met for an uplink CA configurations than or equal to that specified in Table 7.3A.3.5-2.

NOTE: Table 7.3A.3.5-2 does not necessarily reflect the operational conditions of the network, where the number of uplink and downlink allocated resource blocks will be practically constrained by other factors.

Note 9: Configuration for the low band for which the 2nd harmonic is within transmission bandwidth of the high band, as specified in Table 7.3A.0-0a Note 9 or Note 11.

Note 10: This configuration is used for testing the 3rd harmonic or 4th harmonic interfered high band only. It is for low band with multiple choices of RB number corresponding to different high band bandwidth as indicated in Table 7.3A.0-0aa: Uplink configuration for the low band (exceptions). Only one bandwidth option was used for simplicity.

Note 11: Configuration for the low band for which the 4th harmonic is within transmission bandwidth of the high band, as specified in Table 7.3A.0-0a Note 12 and 13.
