8 Default Conditions for NR

37.571-23GPPPart 2: Protocol conformanceRelease 16TSUser Equipment (UE) conformance specification for UE positioning

8.1 LCS Sub-Test Cases

Some test cases defined in clause 9 may include several sub-test cases dependent on the positioning method(s) supported by the UE. Each sub-test case is identified by a sub-test case number as defined in Table 8.1-1. The applicable sub-tests for each test case are specified in the test procedure sequence clause of each test case. If no sub-tests are defined for a specific test case it means that this particular test case is not dependent on a specific positioning method and is applicable in all cases, independently of the positioning method(s) supported by the UE.

8.2 Default signal conditions

8.2.1 Simulated GNSS environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.1.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

For Test Configuration D (Table 8.1A-1) the LTE Cell 1 frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

8.2.2 Simulated OTDOA (LTE) environment

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) an additional independent multi cell LTE environment is used with LTE Cell 1 and LTE Cell 2 (where required) . The E-UTRA frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

For Test Configuration D (Table 8.1A-1), the LTE Cell 1 and LTE Cell 2 (where required) E-UTRA frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

All LTE cells transmit PRS according to the PRS configuration provided in the OTDOA (LTE) assistance data defined in subclause 8.4.1.2. The positioning subframes are low-interference subframes, i.e. contain no PDSCH transmissions.

LTE Cell 1 is the OTDOA reference cell, LTE Cell 2 (where required) is an OTDOA neighbour cell.

Where two LTE cells are required, the two LTE Cells 1 and 2 shall be synchronized, and the timing offset (the RSTD) between the cells, referenced to the UE’s antenna input, shall be set equal to the expectedRSTD value provided in the OTDOA (LTE) assistance data, as defined in subclause 8.4.1.2.

Normal propagation condition is used for all cells.

8.2.3 Simulated ECID (LTE) environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.3.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) up to and including LPP Rel-15, UE Rx-Tx measurement is not possible and therefore there is little value in testing ECID (LTE) for positioning purposes and ECID (LTE) shall not be tested.

For Test Configuration D (Table 8.1A-1), the LTE Cell 1 and LTE Cell 2 E-UTRA frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

8.2.4 Simulated MBS environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.4.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

8.2.5 Simulated WLAN environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.5.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

8.2.6 Simulated Bluetooth environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.6.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

For Test Configuration D (Table 8.1A-1) the LTE Cell 1 frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

8.2.7 Simulated Sensor environment

Same as defined in clause 5.2.7.

For Test Configuration B (Table 8.1A-1) the NR Cell 1 frequency to be used for testing and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

For Test Configuration D (Table 8.1A-1) the LTE Cell 1 frequency to be tested and other default conditions are as specified for signalling test cases in 3GPP TS 36.508 [8].

8.2.8 Simulated general NR environment

For NR FR2, the connection between the SS and the DUT shall be OTA. The SS shall ensure that the NR cell is suitable throughout the test. The OTA link shall be sufficient to provide stable LPP message transmissions between the SS and the DUT.

For NR FR1 and the other technologies used for the test cases in Chapter 9 (e.g. LTE, GNSS, WLAN…) the connection shall be conducted, following the settings described in this section.

8.2.10 Simulated DL-AoD environment

For DL-AoD signalling test cases NR Cell 1 and NR Cell 2 (if required) are used, as defined in 3GPP TS 38.508-1 [30].

All NR cells transmit DL-PRS according to the DL-PRS configuration provided in the DL-AoD assistance data defined in subclause 8.4.1.7.

All NR cells transmit DL-PRS according to the DL-PRS configuration provided in the DL-TDOA assistance data defined in subclause 8.4.1.8.

Normal propagation condition is used for all cells.

NR Cell 1 is the DL-TDOA reference cell. NR Cell 2 and NR Cell 3 are DL-TDOA neighbour cells.

The simulated general NR environment as specified in 8.2.8 also applies.
