CA configuration, bandwidth combination and MIMO layer on each CC is determined by following procedure.
– Select one CA bandwidth combination among all supported CA configurations with bandwidth combination and MIMO layer on each CC that leads to largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth among all CA bandwidth combinations supported by UE. Equivalent aggregated bandwidth is defined as
where 
is number of CCs, 
and 
is MIMO layer and bandwidth of CC 
.
– When there are multiple sets of {CA configuration, bandwidth combination, MIMO layer} with same largest aggregated bandwidth, select one among sets with largest number of 4 layer CCs.
– The procedure applies also for single carrier using operating band instead of CA configuration, and bandwidth instead of bandwidth combination.
The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 [2] clause 8.7.9.

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 4.3.1.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-2 for UE not supporting 256QAM or Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-4 for UE supporting 256QAM.
1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.74 (without using faders and AWGN generators).
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-1 and Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-3 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-1 and Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-5 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-4.
3. Downlink signals 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 4A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.3. Message contents are defined in clause 8.7.9.2.4.3.
8.7.9.2.4.2 Test procedure
1. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1 (No external noise sources are applied).
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-3 for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-5 for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-4.
3. The SS sets the counters NDL_newtx, NDL_retx, NUL_PDCP and NDL_PDCP to 0.
4. For each new DL HARQ transmission the SS generates sufficient PDCP SDUs to fill up the TB in accordance with Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-3 (Note 1) for UE not supporting 256QAM or in accordance with Table 8.7.9.2.4.1-5 (Note 1) for UE supporting 256QAM. The SS ciphers the PDCP SDUs, concatenates the resultant PDCP PDUs to form an RLC PDU and then a MAC PDU. The SS transmits the MAC PDU. The SS increments then NDL_newtx by one and NDL_PDCP by the number of new PDCP SDUs (Note 1) included in the sent MAC PDU.
5. If PHY requests a DL HARQ retransmission, the SS performs a HARQ retransmission and increments NDL_retx by one.
6. Steps 4 to 5 are repeated at every TTI for at least 300 frames and the SS waits for 300ms to let any HARQ retransmissions and RLC retransmissions to finish.
7. For each PDCP SDU received at the SS, if the content of the data matches that of the truncated version of the original PDCP SDU generated at the SS, the SS increments NUL_PDCP by one
8. The SS calculates the TB success rate as A = 100%*NDL_newtx / (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx). Measurements are not based on UE feedback but on SS counters instead (NDL_newtx and NDL_retx) in order to validate HARQ feedback received from the UE.
9. The SS calculates the PDCP SDU loss as B = NDL_PDCP – NUL_PDCP
10. The UE passes the test if A > 85% and B = 0.
NOTE 1: In case of RLC PDU retransmission, the number of new required PDCP SDUs is as many as to fill the rest of TB.

Note 1: Select the largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth supported by the UE as defined in clause 8.7.9.1. Only one test point to be tested. |
||||||||
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: Maximum WGap for Intra-band non-contiguous CA, otherwise Mid Range as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-2 for UE not supporting 256QAM or Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-3 for UE supporting 256QAM.
1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.91.
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-3.
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 4A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.3. Message contents are defined in clause 8.7.9.3.4.3.
8.7.9.3.4.2 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 per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4. PhysicalConfigDedicated-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.3.4.3-3, PhysicalConfigDedicatedSCell-r10-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.3.4.3-4. Cell ID = 1 applies to S-Cell.
3. The 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, clauses 8.3.3.2).
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1 (No external noise sources are applied).
5. For UE not supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-2, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-3, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.3.4.1-3.
6. The SS sets the counters NDL_newtx, NDL_retx, NUL_PDCP and NDDL_PDCP to 0.
7. For each new DL HARQ transmission the SS generates sufficient PDCP SDUs to fill up the TB (Note 1). The SS ciphers the PDCP SDUs, concatenates the resultant PDCP PDUs to form an RLC PDU and then a MAC PDU. The SS transmits the MAC PDU. The SS increments then NDL_newtx by one and NDL_PDCP by the number of new PDCP SDUs (Note 1) included in the sent MAC PDU.
8. If PHY requests a DL HARQ retransmission, the SS performs a HARQ retransmission and increments NDL_retx by one.
9. Steps 7 to 8 are repeated at every TTI for at least 300 frames and the SS waits for 300ms to let any HARQ retransmissions and RLC retransmissions to finish.
10. For each PDCP SDU received at the SS, if the content of the data matches that of the truncated version of the original PDCP SDU generated at the SS, the SS increments NUL_PDCP by one
11. The SS calculates the TB success rate as A = 100%*NDL_newtx / (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx). Measurements are not based on UE feedback but on SS counters instead (NDL_newtx and NDL_retx) in order to validate HARQ feedback received from the UE.
12. The SS calculates the PDCP SDU loss as B = NDL_PDCP – NUL_PDCP
13. The UE passes the test if A > 85% and B = 0.
NOTE 1: In case of RLC PDU retransmission, the number of new required PDCP SDUs is as many as to fill the rest of TB.

Note 1: Select the largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth supported by the UE as defined in clause 8.7.9.1. Only one test point to be tested. |
||||||||
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: Maximum WGap for Intra-band non-contiguous CA, otherwise Mid Range as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-2 for UE not supporting 256QAM or Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-3 for UE supporting 256QAM.
1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.91.
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-3.
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 4A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.3. Message contents are defined in clause 8.7.9.4.4.3.
8.7.9.4.4.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCCs according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCCs as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4 with two SCCs configured. PhysicalConfigDedicated-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.4.4.3-3, PhysicalConfigDedicatedSCell-r10-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.4.4.3-4. Cell ID = n (where n is 1, 2) applies to S-Celln (where n is 1, 2).
3. The SS activates SCCs 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, clauses 8.3.3.2).
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1 (No external noise sources are applied).
5. For UE not supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-2, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-3, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.4.4.1-3.
6. The SS sets the counters NDL_newtx, NDL_retx, NUL_PDCP and NDDL_PDCP to 0.
7. For each new DL HARQ transmission the SS generates sufficient PDCP SDUs to fill up the TB (Note 1). The SS ciphers the PDCP SDUs, concatenates the resultant PDCP PDUs to form an RLC PDU and then a MAC PDU. The SS transmits the MAC PDU. The SS increments then NDL_newtx by one and NDL_PDCP by the number of new PDCP SDUs (Note 1) included in the sent MAC PDU.
8. If PHY requests a DL HARQ retransmission, the SS performs a HARQ retransmission and increments NDL_retx by one.
9. Steps 7 to 8 are repeated at every TTI for at least 300 frames and the SS waits for 300ms to let any HARQ retransmissions and RLC retransmissions to finish.
10. For each PDCP SDU received at the SS, if the content of the data matches that of the truncated version of the original PDCP SDU generated at the SS, the SS increments NUL_PDCP by one
11. The SS calculates the TB success rate as A = 100%*NDL_newtx / (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx). Measurements are not based on UE feedback but on SS counters instead (NDL_newtx and NDL_retx) in order to validate HARQ feedback received from the UE.
12. The SS calculates the PDCP SDU loss as B = NDL_PDCP – NUL_PDCP
13. The UE passes the test if A > 85% and B = 0.
NOTE 1: In case of RLC PDU retransmission, the number of new required PDCP SDUs is as many as to fill the rest of TB.

Note 1: Select the largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth supported by the UE as defined in clause 8.7.9.1. Only one test point to be tested. |
||||||||
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: Maximum WGap for Intra-band non-contiguous CA, otherwise Mid Range as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-2 for UE not supporting 256QAM or Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-3 for UE supporting 256QAM.
1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.91.
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-3.
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 4A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.3. Message contents are defined in clause 8.7.9.5.4.3.
8.7.9.5.4.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCCs according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCCs as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4 with three SCCs configured. PhysicalConfigDedicated-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.5.4.3-3, PhysicalConfigDedicatedSCell-r10-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.5.4.3-4. Cell ID = n (where n is 1, 2, 3) applies to S-Celln (where n is 1, 2, 3).
3. The SS activates SCCs 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, clauses 8.3.3.2).
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1 (No external noise sources are applied).
5. For UE not supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-2, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-3, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.5.4.1-3.
6. The SS sets the counters NDL_newtx, NDL_retx, NUL_PDCP and NDDL_PDCP to 0.
7. For each new DL HARQ transmission the SS generates sufficient PDCP SDUs to fill up the TB (Note 1). The SS ciphers the PDCP SDUs, concatenates the resultant PDCP PDUs to form an RLC PDU and then a MAC PDU. The SS transmits the MAC PDU. The SS increments then NDL_newtx by one and NDL_PDCP by the number of new PDCP SDUs (Note 1) included in the sent MAC PDU.
8. If PHY requests a DL HARQ retransmission, the SS performs a HARQ retransmission and increments NDL_retx by one.
9. Steps 7 to 8 are repeated at every TTI for at least 300 frames and the SS waits for 300ms to let any HARQ retransmissions and RLC retransmissions to finish.
10. For each PDCP SDU received at the SS, if the content of the data matches that of the truncated version of the original PDCP SDU generated at the SS, the SS increments NUL_PDCP by one
11. The SS calculates the TB success rate as A = 100%*NDL_newtx / (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx). Measurements are not based on UE feedback but on SS counters instead (NDL_newtx and NDL_retx) in order to validate HARQ feedback received from the UE.
12. The SS calculates the PDCP SDU loss as B = NDL_PDCP – NUL_PDCP
13. The UE passes the test if A > 85% and B = 0.
NOTE 1: In case of RLC PDU retransmission, the number of new required PDCP SDUs is as many as to fill the rest of TB.

Note 1: Select the largest equivalent aggregated bandwidth supported by the UE as defined in clause 8.7.9.1. Only one test point to be tested. |
||||||||
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: Maximum WGap for Intra-band non-contiguous CA, otherwise Mid Range as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1.
Channel Bandwidths to be tested: according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-2 for UE not supporting 256QAM or Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-3 for UE supporting 256QAM.
1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.91.
2. For UE not supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 8.7.9.1-1, Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-1 depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-3.
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 4A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.3. Message contents are defined in clause 8.7.9.6.4.3.
8.7.9.6.4.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCCs according to Annex C.0, C.1 and Annex C.3.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCCs as per TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.4 with four SCCs configured. PhysicalConfigDedicated-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.6.4.3-3, PhysicalConfigDedicatedSCell-r10-DEFAULT is defined in Table 8.7.9.6.4.3-4. Cell ID = n (where n is 1, 2, 3, 4) applies to S-Celln (where n is 1, 2, 3, 4).
3. The SS activates SCCs 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, clauses 8.3.3.2).
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1 (No external noise sources are applied).
5. For UE not supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-2, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-2. For UE supporting 256QAM the SS looks up TBsize in Annex A.3.9 for the RMCs in accordance with table 8.7.9.1-3, for the tests to be performed depending on the UE category according to Table 8.7.9.6.4.1-3.
6. The SS sets the counters NDL_newtx, NDL_retx, NUL_PDCP and NDDL_PDCP to 0.
7. For each new DL HARQ transmission the SS generates sufficient PDCP SDUs to fill up the TB (Note 1). The SS ciphers the PDCP SDUs, concatenates the resultant PDCP PDUs to form an RLC PDU and then a MAC PDU. The SS transmits the MAC PDU. The SS increments then NDL_newtx by one and NDL_PDCP by the number of new PDCP SDUs (Note 1) included in the sent MAC PDU.
8. If PHY requests a DL HARQ retransmission, the SS performs a HARQ retransmission and increments NDL_retx by one.
9. Steps 7 to 8 are repeated at every TTI for at least 300 frames and the SS waits for 300ms to let any HARQ retransmissions and RLC retransmissions to finish.
10. For each PDCP SDU received at the SS, if the content of the data matches that of the truncated version of the original PDCP SDU generated at the SS, the SS increments NUL_PDCP by one
11. The SS calculates the TB success rate as A = 100%*NDL_newtx / (NDL_newtx + NDL_retx). Measurements are not based on UE feedback but on SS counters instead (NDL_newtx and NDL_retx) in order to validate HARQ feedback received from the UE.
12. The SS calculates the PDCP SDU loss as B = NDL_PDCP – NUL_PDCP
13. The UE passes the test if A > 85% and B = 0.
NOTE 1: In case of RLC PDU retransmission, the number of new required PDCP SDUs is as many as to fill the rest of TB.
