8.1.6 E-UTRAN TDD UE Rx–Tx time difference under Time Domain Measurement Resource Restriction with CRS Assistance Information and Non-MBSFN ABS (feICIC)
37.571-13GPPPart 1: Conformance test specificationRelease 16TSUser Equipment (UE) conformance specification for UE positioning
8.1.6.1 Test purpose
The purpose of this test is to verify that the E-UTRAN TDD UE Rx – Tx time difference measurement accuracy is within the specified limits in TS 36.133 [23] clause 9.1.9.4 when the UE is provided with a time-domain measurement resource restriction pattern and CRS assistance information, and when non-MBSFN ABS is configured in the interfering cells.
8.1.6.2 Test applicability
This test applies to all types of E-UTRA TDD UE release 11 and forward with LPP release 13 onwards that supports ECID positioning and CRS interference handling. Applicability requires support of FGI bit 115. Note that for LPP releases before release 13 the UE Rx – Tx time difference measurement report mapping is ambiguous and therefore this test shall not be used.
8.1.6.3 Minimum conformance requirements
NOTE: This measurement is used for UE positioning purposes.
The UE RX-TX time difference is measured from the PCell.
For UE configured with a time-domain measurement resource restriction pattern for PCell measurements, the accuracy requirements in Table 8.1.5.3-1 apply provided that the following conditions are met for the PCell:
PCell cell specific reference signals are transmitted from one, two or four antenna ports,
Conditions defined in TS 36.101 [2] clause 7.3 for reference sensitivity are fulfilled,
No changes to the uplink transmission timing are applied during the measurement period,
RSRP|dBm according to clause E.4 for a corresponding Band,
The time domain measurement resource restriction pattern configured for the measured cell indicates at least one subframe per radio frame for performing the RSRP measurement,
Four symbols containing CRS are available in all subframes indicated by the time domain measurement resource restriction pattern, and
The UE is provided via PCell with the CRS assistance information (TS 36.331 [22]) and the CRS assistance information is valid throughout the entire evaluation period.
The requirements in this section shall also be met when the number of transmit antenna ports TS 36.211 [26] of one or more cells whose CRS assistance information is provided TS 36.331 [22] is different from the number of transmit antenna ports of the measured cell.
When the CRS assistance information is provided, the transmission bandwidth in all intra-frequency cells in the CRS assistance information is the same or larger than the transmission bandwidth of the PCell for which measurement is performed.

NOTE 1: This Io condition is expressed as the average Io per RE over all REs in an OFDM symbol. NOTE 2: Ts is the basic timing unit defined in TS 36.211 [26]. NOTE 3: The same bands and the same Io conditions for each band apply for this requirement as for the corresponding requirement with downlink bandwidth ≤ 3 MHz. NOTE 4: Except Band 29. NOTE 5: The condition level is increased by ∆>0, when applicable, as described in TS 36.521-3 [25] Sections I.4.2 and I.4.3. NOTE 6: E-UTRA operating band groups are as defined in Section 4.4.2. NOTE 7: Except Band 32. NOTE 8: Io is defined in subframes indicated for PCell measurements by the time domain measurement resource restriction pattern. The specified Io range applies to CRS and non-CRS symbols. Io may be different in different symbols within a subframe. NOTE 9: CRS Ês/Iot is in subframes indicated for PCell measurements by the time-domain measurement resource restriction pattern. |
NOTE: It is up to the UE implementation whether the UE Rx-Tx time difference measurement is performed in any subframe or in subframes indicated by the time-domain measurement resource restriction pattern.
The normative reference for this requirement is TS 36.133 [23] clause 9.1.9.4 and A.9.7.6.
8.1.6.4 Test description
The test has two test points with time delays starting at 32 TS and 5008 TS, respectively. In this test case, there are three cells, Cell 1, Cell 2 and Cell 3, on the same RF channel. Cell 1 is the PCell on which UE Rx-Tx is measured. Cell 2 and Cell 3 are the interfering cells. A non-MBSFN ABS pattern is configured in each of the Cell 2 and Cell 3 during the entire test. The tested UE is connected to the PCell and configured to transmit SRS signals periodically. The SRS configuration is provided to the UE before the measurement starts. The UE is configured to report UE Rx–Tx time difference measurement. The test equipment measures the transmit timing of the UE using the transmitted SRS. The test equipment then compares this timing to the UE Rx-Tx measurement reported by the UE. The UE is configured by higher layers via Cell 1 with a time-domain measurement resource restriction pattern for performing E-UTRAN FDD intra-frequency measurements on PCell. The UE is also provided via higher layers with the CRS assistance information for Cell 2. The information for both measurement patterns and the CRS assistance information shall be provided via RRC to the UE before the measurement starts.

8.1.6.4.2 Test procedure
1. Bring the UE to State 3A or 3A-RF according to TS 36.508 [18] clause 4.5.3A or 5.2A.2, with exceptions listed in 7.2A.6 using a value of initial timing advance command TA = 2 in the Random Access Response which indicates an initial timing advance value NTA = 32 Ts. Note that in the remainder of the test the timing advance command TA = 31 which indicates a timing advance adjustment value NTA = 0 Ts.
2. Set the parameters according to Tables 8.1.6.5-1 and 8.1.6.5-2 as appropriate. Propagation conditions are set according to clause 4.6.2.1.
3. The SS adjusts the downlink timing for Cell 1 to a delay of +4 TS, compared to the current value.
4. Wait for 1.6s to allow for the possibility that the UE makes autonomous timing adjustments.
5. The SS shall transmit an LPP REQUEST CAPABILITIES message.
6. The UE shall transmit an LPP PROVIDE CAPABILITIES message indicating the ECID capabilities supported by the UE in the ECID-ProvideCapabilities IE. The IE ueRxTxSupTDD-r13 shall be present (TRUE).
7. The SS shall transmit an LPP REQUEST LOCATION INFORMATION message, including the ECID‑RequestLocationInformation IE. If the UE message at step 4b includes the ackRequested IE set to TRUE, then the SS shall send an acknowledgment in the LPP REQUEST LOCATION INFORMATION message.
8. The UE shall transmit an LPP PROVIDE LOCATION INFORMATION message including the ecid-SignalMeasurementInformation IE.
9. As soon as possible after step 8 the SS shall measure the transmit timing of the UE using the transmitted SRS, relative to the current downlink timing.
10. If the UE message at step 8 includes the ackRequested IE set to TRUE, then the SS shall send a LPP acknowledgment message.
11. The SS shall check the reported value of ue-RxTxTimeDiff in the ecid-SignalMeasurementInformation IE provided by the UE in step 8 and compare it with the value measured in step 9. The SS shall check that the reported value is within the limits specified in table 8.1.6.5-3 for test compared to the measured value. If the reported value is within the limits the number of successful results for test is increased by one. If the reported value is not within the limits, or the UE reports an error in the LPP PROVIDE LOCATION INFORMATION message in step 8, or does not respond at step 8 within the time given by the time IE in the ECID-RequestLocationInformation IE in step 7, then the number of unsuccessful results for testis increased by one.
12. Repeat steps 3-11 until the confidence level according to Annex D.4.3 is achieved.
NOTE: To avoid a large divergence between the sent TA and the set downlink timing, the SS may reset the downlink timing for Cell 1 to its initial value after a certain amount of loops. The loop during the reset does not count for the result statistics.
13. Repeat steps 1-12 for test point 2.
