7.6.1_1 In-band blocking with 4 Rx antenna ports

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

7.6.1_1.1 Test Purpose

In-band blocking with 4 Rx antenna ports is defined for an unwanted interfering signal falling into the range from 15MHz below to 15MHz above the UE 4 Rx receive band, at which the relative throughput shall meet or exceed the requirement for the specified measurement channels.

The lack of in-band blocking ability will decrease the coverage area when other e-NodeB transmitters exist (except in the adjacent channels and spurious response).

7.6.1_1.2 Test Applicability

This test applies to all types of E-UTRA UE release 10 and forward that supports 4 Rx antenna ports.

Note 1: Test Channel Bandwidths are checked separately for each E-UTRA band, which 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 7.3.3-2 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 1: The transmitter shall be set to 4dB below PCMAX_L with PCMAX_L as defined in clause 6.2.5.

Note 2: The interferer consists of the Reference measurement channel specified in Annex A.3.2 with one sided dynamic OCNG Pattern OP.1 FDD/TDD as described in Annex A.5.1.1/A.5.2.1 and set-up according to Annex C.3.1.

Note 3: The REFSENS power level is specified in Table 7.3_1.5-1.
