7.4A.7 Maximum input level for 4DL CA

36.521-13GPPEvolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access (E-UTRA)Part 1: Conformance testingRadio transmission and receptionRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) conformance specification

Tools: ARFCN - Frequency Conversion for 5G NR/LTE/UMTS/GSM

7.4A.7.1 Test purpose

Maximum input level for CA test verifies the UE’s ability to receive data with a given average throughput for a specified reference measurement channel, under conditions of high signal level, ideal propagation and no added noise.

A UE unable to meet the throughput requirement under these conditions will decrease the coverage area near to an e-NodeB.

7.4A.7.2 Test applicability

This test case applies to all types of E-UTRA UE and forward that support 4DL with CA configurations in Table 7.1-2b.

7.4A.7.3 Minimum conformance requirements

The Minimum conformance requirements are defined in clause 7.4A.0.

7.4A.7.4 Test description

7.4A.7.4.1 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 CA configurations specified in tables of 5.4.2A.1 as applicable. All of these configurations shall be tested with applicable test parameters for each CA Configuration, and are shown in table 7.4A.7.4.1-1 to 7.4A.7.4.1-2. The details of the uplink and downlink reference measurement channels (RMCs) are specified in Annexes A.2 and A.3 respectively. The details of the OCNG patterns used are specified in Annex A.5. Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.

Initial Conditions

Test Environment as specified in
TS 36.508 [7] subclause 4.1

Test Frequencies as specified in TS36.508 [7] subclause 4.3.1 for different CA bandwidth classes.

For test frequencies refer to “Range” columns. For mapping within Band refer to “CC” columns

Test CC Combination setting (N_{RB_agg}) as specified in subclause 5.4.2A.1 for the CA Configuration across bandwidth combination sets supported by the UE.

Note 1: CA Configuration Test CC Combination test settings are checked separately for each CA Configuration.

Note 2: Intra-band contiguous & Intra-band contiguous + Inter-band: Use CA Configuration – specific test points if present in the table, otherwise use Default Test Settings test points.

Note 3: Inter-band: Use CA Configuration – specific test points if present in the table, Otherwise use test points from matching Group Test Settings, if present in the table. Otherwise use the Default Test Settings test points.

Note 4: Inter-band & Intra-band contiguous + Inter-band: If, according to the UE declared capability, UE does not support UL in an individual band within the CA Configuration, test points with that individual band as PCC are not applicable.

Note 5: Intra-band contiguous: X corresponds to the band of the CA Configuration. E.g. for CA_41E, X=41.

Note 6: Inter-band: X,Y,Z,R correspond to the different bands in the CA Configuration. E.g. for CA_1A-3A-7A-8A,X=1,Y=3,Z=7,R=8.

Note 7: Intra-band contiguous + Inter-band: X,Y,Z correspond to the different bands in the CA Configuration. E.g. for CA_3C-7A-28A, X=3,Y=7 and Z=28.

Note 8: REFSENS refers to the PCC band’s and PCC N_RB ‘s single carrier Uplink RB allocation for reference sensitivity according to table 7.3.5-2.

Note 9: Intra-band contiguous: If in the CA Configuration UE supports multiple CC Combinations with the same N_{RB_agg}, choose for testing the Combination with maximum N_{RB_PCC} and then select maximum N_{RB_SCC1}for the chosen N_{RB_PCC.}

Note 10: Intra-band contiguous + Inter-band: If in the CA Configuration UE supports multiple CC Combinations with the same N_{RB_agg}, choose the Combination with N_{RB_PCC} = N_{RB_SCC1}for testing. If no such combination is supported, choose Combination with maximum N_{RB_PCC} for testing.

Note 11: The orders and numbering of SCCs in this table does not imply any order in test implementation of SCCs.

Note 4: Intra-band non-contiguous + Inter-band: X,Y,Z correspond to the different bands in the CA Configuration. E.g. for CA_2A-2A-4A-12A,X=2,Y=4,Z=12.

Note 7: REFSENS refers to the PCC band’s and PCC N_RB ‘s single carrier Uplink RB allocation for reference sensitivity according to table 7.3.5-2.

Note 8: Intra-band non-contiguous + Intra-band contiguous: If in the CA Configuration UE supports multiple CC Combinations with the same N_{RB_agg}, choose the Combination with N_{RB_CC1} = N_{RB_CC2}for testing. If no such combination is supported, choose Combination with maximum N_{RB_CC1} for testing.

Note 9: The orders and numbering of SCCs in this table does not imply any order in test implementation of SCCs.

1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.55 if the UE supports 2 Rx antennas or Figure A.80 if the UE supports 4 Rx antennas in at least one band within the CA configuration.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.4.3.

3. Downlink signals for PCC are initially set up according to Annex C.0, C.1 and C.3.1, and uplink signals according to Annex H.1 and H.3.1

4. The UL and DL Reference Measurement channels are set according to Tables 7.4A.7.4.1-1 to 7.4A.7.4.1-2.

5. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.

6. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 7.4A.7.4.3.

7.4A.7.4.2 Test procedure

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

2. The SS shall configure SCCs as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4. Message contents are defined in clause 7.4A.7.4.3

3. SS activates SCCs by sending the activation MAC-CE (Refer to TS 36.321 [13] clauses 5.13 and 6.1.3.8). Wait for at least 2 seconds (Refer TS 36.133 [4], clause 8.3.3.2).

4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Tables 7.4A.7.4.1-1 to 7.4A.7.4.1-6 as appropriate on PCC and SCCs. 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 Tables 7.4A.7.4.1-1 to 7.4A.7.4.1-2 as appropriate 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 SCCs to the value defined in Table 7.4A.7.5-2 or 7.4A.7.5-3 according to the type of CA. Send Uplink power control commands to the UE (less or equal to 1dB step size should be used), to ensure that the PCC output power is within +0dB, -3.4 dB of the target level for carrier frequency f ≤ 3.0GHz
or within +0dB, -4 dB of the target level for carrier frequency 3.0GHz < f ≤ 4.2GHz, for at least the duration of the Throughput measurement.

7. Measure the average throughput for the carrier(s) indicated in table 7.4A.7.4.2-1 for duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.2A.

8. Repeat steps 6 to 7 for all component carriers indicated in Table 7.4A.7.4.2-1.

Note 1: Test point ID for the particular CA configuration as defined in section 7.4A.7.4.1. Note 2: The reference for the placement of the interferer signals is the centre frequency of the carrier closest to the interferer among the carriers throughput is measured on. Note 3: Where there are multiple rows for a single Test point ID, the test is repeated for each row.
