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 7.3E.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. |
7.6.2E.4.2 Test Procedure
Same test procedure as in clause 7.6.2.4.2
7.6.2E.4.3 Message Contents
Same message contents as in clause 7.6.2.4.3
7.6.2E.5 Test Requirement
Except for the spurious response frequencies recorded at the final step of test procedure, the throughput measurement derived in test procedure shall be ≥ 95% of the maximum throughput of the reference measurement channels as specified in clause A.3.2 with parameters specified in Tables 7.6.2E.5-1 and 7.6.2E.5-2.
For frequency range 1, 2, and 3, the number of spurious response frequencies recorded in the final step of test procedure shall not exceed in each assigned frequency channel when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the requirements of clause 7.7E Spurious Response are applicable.
For frequency range 4, the number of spurious response frequencies recorded in the final step of test procedure shall not exceed in each assigned frequency channel when measured using a 1MHz step size. For these exceptions the requirements of clause 7.7E Spurious Response are applicable.
