9.5.1.2_1.4.1 Initial conditions

Same initial conditions as in clause 9.5.1.2.4.1.

9.5.1.2_1.4.2 Test procedure

2. The SS shall send PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2 for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to the UE reported CQI (wideband CQI), PMI and fixed RI as defined in Table 9.5.1.2_1.3-1. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS schedules the UL transmission to carry the PUSCH CQI feedback via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 1 and I_MCS=29 and N_PRB allocated to be less or equal to 4. Measure theaccording to annex G.5.3

3. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1.

4. For Test 3 the SS repeats steps 1 to 3 to get two values for , one value for fixed Rank 1 case and the other value for fixed Rank 2 case.

5. The SS sends uplink scheduling information via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit to 0 to schedule UL RMC in subframe#2 and #7 (Table A.4.1-2).

6. The SS shall transmit an RRC Connection Reconfiguration message to set codebookSubsetRestriction as for UE reported RI according to Table 9.5.1.2_1.3-1.

7. The UE shall transmit RRC Connection Reconfiguration Complete message.

8. Propagation conditions are set according to Table 9.5.1.2_1.3-1.

9. The SS shall send PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 2 for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to the UE reported CQI (wideband CQI), PMI and RI. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC. The SS schedules the UL transmission to carry the PUSCH CQI feedback via PDCCH DCI format 0 with CQI request bit set to 1 and I_MCS=29 and N_PRB allocated to be less or equal to 4. Measure according to Annex G.5.3

10. For Test 1 and Test 2 if the ratio ( / ) satisfies the requirement in Table 9.5.1.2_1.5-1, then pass the UE for Test 1 and Test 2.

11. For Test 3 if the ratio ( / ) satisfies at least one of the ₁or ₂requirements in Table 9.5.1.2_1.5-1, then pass the UE for Test 3.

12. For a complete test case to pass the UE has to pass all test cases 1, 2 and 3. Otherwise, fail the UE

13. If all tests have not been done, then repeat the same procedure (steps 1 to 12) with test conditions according to the Table 9.5.1.2_1.3-2 for the other Tests as appropriate.
