Note 1: Test Channel Bandwidths are checked separately for each E-UTRA band. The applicable channel bandwidths are specified in Table 5.4.2.1-1.

Note 2: Depending on E-UTRA band, only the appropriate Uplink RB allocation value according to table 7.3E.3-3 is tested per Test Channel Bandwidth. The allocation shall be located as close as possible to the downlink operating band but confined within the transmission bandwidth configuration for the channel bandwidth (Table 5.4.2-1).

Note 3: For the DL signal one sided dynamic OCNG Pattern OP.1 FDD/TDD is used.

Note 4: Downlink RB position shall be RBstart = 0

7.4E.4.2 Test procedure

Same test procedure as in clause 7.4.4.2.

7.4E.4.3 Message contents

Same message contents as in clause 7.4.4.3.

7.4E.5 Test requirement

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 Table 7.4E.5-1.
