9.2.1.1.4 Test description

9.2.1.1.4.1 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 4.3.1.1.

Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 10MHz for tests defined in 9.2.1.1.3-1 and 5MHz for tests defined in Table 9.2.1.1.3-2, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1

1. Connect the SS, faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connector(s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.9.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 9.2.1.1.3-1.

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 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [7] clause 5.2A.2. Message contents are defined in clause 9.2.1.1.4.3.

9.2.1.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Set the parameters of bandwidth, reference Channel, the propagation condition, antenna configuration and the SNR according to Table 9.2.1.1.3-1 for 10MHz tests or Table 9.2.1.1.3-2 for 5MHz tests as appropriate.

2. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to CQI value 8 and keep it regardless of the wideband CQI value sent by the UE. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. Continue transmission of the PDSCH until 2000 wideband CQI reports have been gathered. In this process the SS collects wideband CQI reports every 5 ms and also cases where UE transmits nothing in its CQI timing are also counted as wideband CQI reports.

3. Set up a relative frequency distribution for the reported wideband CQI-values, Calculate the median value (wideband Median CQI is the wideband CQI that is at or crosses 50% distribution from the lower wideband CQI side). This CQI-value is declared as wideband Median CQI value.

4. If Median CQI is not equal to 1 or 15 and 1800 or more of the wideband CQI values are in the range (Median CQI – 1) ≤ Median CQI ≤ ( Median CQI + 1) then continue with step 5, otherwise go to step 8.

5. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to the wideband median-CQI value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. For any PDSCH transmitted by the SS, record the associated ACK, NACK and statDTX responses. The responses are then filtered as follows: for the sequence of responses for each HARQ process, discard all the statDTX responses. Continue to gather data until the number of filtered ACK+NACK responses reaches 1000.

For the filtered ACK and NACK responses if the ratio (NACK / ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1 then go to step 6, otherwise go to step 7.

6. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to the wideband median-CQI+1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered.

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) > 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

7. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to the wideband median-CQI-1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered.

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

8. If both SNR points of the test have not been tested, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 7) for the other SNR point as appropriate. Otherwise fail the UE.

9. If both tests have not been done, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 8) with test conditions according to the table 9.2.1.1.3-1 for 10MHz or table 9.2.1.1.3-2 for 5MHz for the other Test as appropriate. Otherwise pass the UE.

9.2.1.3_C.1.4 Test description

9.2.1.3_C.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 4.3.1.1.

Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 10MHz, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1

1. Connect the SS, faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connector (s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.40.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 9.2.1.3_C.1.3-1.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C0, 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 9.2.1.3_C.1.4.3.

9.2.1.3_C.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Set the parameters of bandwidth, reference Channel, the propagation condition, antenna configuration and the SNR according to Tables 9.2.1.3_C.1.3-1 and C.3.3-1 of Annex C.3.3 as appropriate.

2. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to CQI value 8 and keep it regardless of the wideband CQI value sent by the UE. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF#8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-1). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. Continue transmission of the PDSCH until 2000 wideband CQI reports, respectively for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1,have been gathered. In this process the SS collects wideband CQI reports every 5 ms and also cases where UE transmits nothing in its CQI timing are also counted as wideband CQI reports.

3. Set up a relative frequency distribution for the reported wideband CQI-values for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1. Calculate respectively the median value (wideband Median CQI is the wideband CQI that is at or crosses 50% distribution from the lower wideband CQI side). These CQI-values are declared respectively as wideband Median CQI₀ and Median CQI₁.

4. If
Median CQI₀ is not equal to 1 or 15, and 1800 or more of the wideband CQI values for subframe set C_CSI,0 are in the range (Median CQI₀ – 1) ≤ Median CQI₀ ≤ ( Median CQI₀ + 1) AND
Median CQI₁ is not equal to 1 or 15, and 1800 or more of the wideband CQI values for subframe set C_{CSI, 1}are in the range (Median CQI₁ – 1) ≤ Median CQI₁ ≤ ( Median CQI₁ + 1) AND
the difference Median CQI₀ minus Median CQI₁ is 2 ≤ (Median CQI₀ – Median CQI₁) ≤ 5 for Test 1 and 0 ≤ (Median CQI₀ – Median CQI₁) ≤ 1 for Test 2,
then continue with step 5, otherwise go to step 8.

5. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median CQI₁ value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF#8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-1). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH transmitted by the SS, record the associated ACK, NACK and statDTX responses. The responses are then filtered as follows: for the sequence of responses for each HARQ process, discard all the statDTX responses. Continue to gather data until the number of filtered ACK+NACK responses reaches 1000.

For the filtered ACK and NACK responses if the ratio (NACK / ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1 then go to step 6, otherwise go to step 7.

6. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median CQI₁+1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF#8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-1). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered.

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) > 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

7. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median CQI₁-1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF#8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-1). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered.

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

8. If both SNR points of the test have not been tested, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 7) for the other SNR point as appropriate. Otherwise fail the UE.

9. If both tests have not been done, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 8) with test conditions according to the table 9.2.1.3_C.1.3-1 for the other Test as appropriate. Otherwise pass the UE.

9.2.1.4_C.1.4 Test description

9.2.1.4._C.14.1 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 4.3.1.2.

Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 10MHz, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.2

1. Connect the SS, faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connector (s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.40.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 9.2.1.4_C.1.3-1.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C0, 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 9.2.1.4_C.1.4.3.

9.2.1.4_C.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Set the parameters of bandwidth, reference Channel, the propagation condition, antenna configuration and the SNR according to Table 9.2.1.4_C.1.3-1 and C.3.3-1 of Annex C.3.3 as appropriate.

2. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to CQI value 8 and keep it regardless of the wideband CQI value sent by the UE. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF #8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-2). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1using PUSCH. Continue transmission of the PDSCH until 2000 wideband CQI reports, respectively for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1, have been gathered. In this process the SS collects wideband CQI reports every 5 ms and also cases where UE transmits nothing in its CQI timing are counted as wideband CQI reports.

3. Set up a relative frequency distribution for the reported wideband CQI-values for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1. Calculate respectively the median value (wideband Median CQI is the CQI that is at or crosses 50% distribution from the lower wideband CQI side). These CQI-values are declared respectively as wideband Median CQI₀ and Median CQI₁.

5. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median CQI₁ value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF #8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-2). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0 using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH transmitted by the SS, record the associated ACK, NACK and statDTX responses. In case statDTX can not be differentiated from NACK due to multiplexing effect, evaluate the feedback as a NACK. The responses are then filtered as follows: for the sequence of responses for each HARQ process, discard all the statDTX responses. Continue to gather data until the number of filtered ACK+NACK responses reaches 1000.

For the filtered ACK and NACK responses if the ratio (NACK / ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1 then go to step 6, otherwise go to step 7.

6. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median CQI₁+1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF #8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-2). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0 using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered. In case statDTX can not be differentiated from NACK due to multiplexing effect, evaluate the feedback as a NACK

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) > 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

7. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC only in non-ABS subframes according to the wideband Median-CQI₁-1 value and shall not react to the UE’s wideband CQI reports. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF #8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-2). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0 using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered. In case statDTX can not be differentiated from NACK due to multiplexing effect, evaluate the feedback as a NACK

If the ratio (NACK /ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 9, otherwise go to step 8.

8. If both SNR points of the test have not been tested, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 7) for the other SNR point as appropriate. Otherwise fail the UE.

9. If both tests have not been done, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 8) with test conditions according to the table 9.2.1.4_C.1.3-1 for the other Test as appropriate. Otherwise pass the UE.

9.2.1.5_E.1.4 Test description

9.2.1.5_E.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 4.3.1.1.

Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 10MHz, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.1

1. Connect the SS, AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connector (s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.48 (without faders) for antenna configuration 2×2.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 9.2.1.5_E.1.3-1.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C0, 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 with exceptions listed in 5.2A.5. Message contents are defined in clause 9.2.1.5_E.1.4.3.

9.2.1.5_E.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Set the parameters of bandwidth, reference channel, the propagation condition, antenna configuration and the SNR according to Table 9.2.1.5_E.1.3-1 as appropriate.

2. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to CQI value 8 and keep it regardless of the wideband CQI value sent by the UE. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in uplink SF#8 and #3 (Table A.4.1-1). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1 using PUSCH. Continue transmission of the PDSCH until 2000 wideband CQI reports, respectively for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1, have been gathered. In this process the SS collects wideband CQI reports every 5 ms and also cases where UE transmits nothing in its CQI timing are also counted as wideband CQI reports.

For Test1

4. If Median CQI is not equal to 1 or 15 and 1800 or more of the wideband CQI values for subframe set C_CSI,0 are in the range (Median CQI₀ – 1) ≤ Median CQI₀ ≤ ( Median CQI₀ + 1), then continue with step 5, otherwise go to step 8.5.

For any PDSCH transmitted by the SS, record the associated ACK, NACK and statDTX responses. The responses are then filtered as follows: for the sequence of responses for each HARQ process, discard all the statDTX responses. Continue to gather data until the number of filtered ACK+NACK responses reaches 1000.

For the filtered ACK and NACK responses if the ratio (NACK / ACK + NACK) ≤ 0.1 then go to step 6, otherwise go to step 7.

then pass the UE for this test and go to step 13, otherwise go to step 8.

8. If both SNR points of the test have not been tested, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 7) for the other SNR point as appropriate. Otherwise fail the UE.

9.2.1.6_E.1.4 Test description

9.2.1.6_E.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 4.3.1.2.

Channel Bandwidths to be tested: 10MHz, as defined in TS 36.508 [7] clause 4.3.1.2

1. Connect the SS, AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connector (s) as shown in TS 36.508 [7] Annex A, Figure A.48 (without faders) for antenna configuration 2×2.

2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 9.2.1.6_E.1.3-1.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to Annex C0, 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 with exceptions listed in 5.2A.5. Message contents are defined in clause 9.2.1.6_E.1.4.3.

9.2.1.6_E.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Set the parameters of bandwidth, reference channel, the propagation condition, antenna configuration and the SNR according to Table 9.2.1.6_E.1.3-1 as appropriate.

2. The SS shall transmit PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1A for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to CQI value 8 and keep it regardless of the wideband CQI value sent by the UE. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 0 in downlink SF#4 and #9 to schedule UL RMC in subframe #8 and subframe #3 (Table A.4.1-2). The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report for subframe set C_CSI,0using PUCCH and for subframe set C_CSI,1using PUSCH. Continue transmission of the PDSCH until 2000 wideband CQI reports, respectively for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1, have been gathered. In this process the SS collects wideband CQI reports every 5 ms and also cases where UE transmits nothing in its CQI timing are counted as wideband CQI reports.

3. Set up a relative frequency distribution for the reported wideband CQI-values for subframe set C_CSI,0 and for subframe set C_CSI,1. Calculate respectively the median value (wideband Median CQI is the CQI that is at or crosses 50% distribution from the lower wideband CQI side). These CQI-values are declared as wideband Median CQI₀ and Median CQI₁.

For Test1

4. If Median CQI is not equal to 1 or 15 and 1800 or more of the wideband CQI values for subframe set C_CSI,0 are in the range (Median CQI₀ – 1) ≤ Median CQI₀ ≤ ( Median CQI₀ + 1) then continue with step 5, otherwise go to step 8.

The UE will send ACK/NACK and periodic CQI report using PUSCH. For any PDSCH transmitted by the SS, record the associated ACK, NACK and statDTX responses. In case statDTX can not be differentiated from NACK due to multiplexing effect, evaluate the feedback as a NACK The responses are then filtered as follows: for the sequence of responses for each HARQ process, discard all the statDTX responses. Continue to gather data until the number of filtered ACK+NACK responses reaches 1000.

For any PDSCH, transmitted by the SS, record and filter the ACK, NACK and statDTX responses as in step 5 until 1000 filtered ACK+NACK responses are gathered. In case statDTX can not be differentiated from NACK due to multiplexing effect, evaluate the feedback as a NACK

9.2.1.8 TDD CQI Reporting under AWGN conditions – PUCCH 1-0 for 256QAM in DL

Editor’s note: SNR for 4Rx UE without 2Rx RF bands are still in square brackets

9.2.1.8.1 Test purpose

The same test purpose as in clause 9.2.1.2.1.

9.2.1.8.2 Test applicability

This test applies to E-UTRA TDD UE release 12 and forward of UE Category 11-12 and DL Category ≥11that supports 256QAM in DL.

Note: This test also applies to UE supporting 4Rx antenna ports

9.2.1.8.3 Minimum conformance requirements

The following requirements apply to UE Category 11-12 and UE DL Category ≥11. For the parameters specified in Table 9.2.1.8.3-1, and using the downlink physical channels specified in tables C.3.2-1 and C.3.2-2, the reported CQI value according to RC.1A TDD in Table A.4-1 shall be in the range of ±1 of the reported median more than 90% of the time. If the PDSCH BLER using the transport format indicated by median CQI is less than or equal to 0.1, the BLER using the transport format indicated by the (median CQI + 1) shall be greater than 0.1, or the BLER using the transport format indicated by the (median CQI + 1) shall be less than or equal to 0.1 when the highest MCS value of the test case has reached. If the PDSCH BLER using the transport format indicated by the median CQI is greater than 0.1, the BLER using transport format indicated by (median CQI – 1) shall be less than or equal to 0.1.

In this test, 4-bit CQI Table 2 in Table 7.2.3-2 in TS 36.213 [10], and Modulation and TBS index table 2 in Table 7.1.7.1-1A for PDSCH in TS 36.213 [10] are applied.

Note 1: Reference measurement channel RC.1A TDD according to Table A.4-1 with one sided dynamic OCNG Pattern OP.1 TDD as described in Annex A.5.2.1. Note 2: For each test, the minimum requirements shall be fulfilled for at least one of the two SNR(s) and the respective wanted signal input level. Note 3: To avoid collisions between CQI reports and HARQ-ACK it is necessary to report both on PUSCH instead of PUCCH. PDCCH DCI format 0 shall be transmitted in downlink SF#3 and #8 to allow periodic CQI to multiplex with the HARQ-ACK on PUSCH in uplink subframe SF#7 and #2.

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.101 [2] clause 9.2.1.8.
