8.3.3.1.1.4 Test description
8.3.3.1.1.4.1 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.
Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.
Test Environment: Normal, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.1.
Frequencies to be tested: Mid Range, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 20 MHz + 20 MHz.
1. Connect the SS, the faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure group A.36 as appropriate.
2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.3.3.1-1, 8.3.3.1-2 and 8.3.3.1.1.3-1 as appropriate.
3. Downlink signals for PCC are initially set up according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 and uplink signals according to Annex H.1 and H.3.2.
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.
5. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 8.3.3.1.1.4.3.
8.3.3.1.1.4.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCC, as appropriate and defined in Table 8.3.3.1.1.3-4 as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4. Message contents are defined in clause 8.3.3.1.1.4.3.
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 [4], clauses 8.3.3.2).
4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Table 8.3.3.1.1.3-5 for PCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.
5. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2C for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Table 8.3.3.1.1.3-6 for SCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. Additionally in the last two subframes of every burst SS transmits PDCCH DCI format 1C for CC_RNTI to indicate number of OFDM symbols in the DwPTS of ending partial subframe if required depending on UE capability according to TS 36.213 clause 13A as described in Table 8.3.3.1.1.3-6.
6. Set the parameters of the reference channel, MCS, reference channel, the propagation condition, the correlation matrix and the SNR according to Tables 8.3.3.1.1.5-1 and 8.3.3.1.1.5-2 as appropriate.
7. Measure the average throughput per component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G clause G.3A.5, on both PCC and SCC. Count the number of NACKs, ACKs and statDTXs on the UL during each subtest on both component carriers.

8.3.3.1.2.4 Test description
8.3.3.1.2.4.1 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.
Configurations of PDSCH and PDCCH before measurement are specified in Annex C.2.
Test Environment: Normal, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.1.
Frequencies to be tested: Mid Range, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 20 MHz + 20 MHz.
1. Connect the SS, the faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure group A.36 as appropriate.
2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Tables 8.3.3.1.2.3-1 to 8.3.3.1.2.3-3 as appropriate.
3. Downlink signals for PCC are initially set up according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 and uplink signals according to Annex H.1 and H.3.2.
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.0.
5. Ensure the UE is in State 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 8.3.3.1.2.4.3.
8.3.3.1.2.4.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCC, as appropriate and defined in Table 8.3.3.1.2.3-4 as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4. Message contents are defined in clause 8.3.3.1.2.4.3.
3. SS activates SCC 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 to TS 36.133 [4], clause 8.3.3.2).
4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Table 8.3.3.1.2.3-5 for PCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.
5. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2C for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Table 8.3.3.1.2.3-6 for SCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. Additionally, in the last two subframes of every burst, SS transmits PDCCH DCI format 1C for CC_RNTI to indicate number of OFDM symbols in the DwPTS of ending partial subframe if required depending on UE capability according to TS 36.213 [10] clause 13A as described in Table 8.3.3.1.2.3-6.
6. Set the parameters of the reference channel, MCS, reference channel, the propagation condition, the correlation matrix and the SNR according to Tables 8.3.3.1.2.5-1 and 8.3.3.1.2.5-2 as appropriate.
7. Measure the average throughput per component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.3A.5, on both PCC and SCC. Count the number of NACKs, ACKs and statDTXs on the UL during each subtest on both component carriers.
8.3.3.1.2.4.3 Message contents
Message contents are according to TS 36.508 [7] clauses 5.5 and 4.6 with the following exceptions.
