6.1 General

38.101-23GPPNRPart 2: Range 2 StandaloneRelease 17TSUser Equipment (UE) radio transmission and reception

Unless otherwise stated, the transmitter characteristics are specified over the air (OTA) with a single or multiple transmit chains.

Unless otherwise stated, for power class 3 UEs, the beam correspondence side condition for SSB and CSI-RS specified in clause 6.6.4 shall apply to the transmission tests.

Transmitter requirements for CA operation apply only when the DMRS initialization parameters (including the case when the UE applies cell ID as DMRS scrambling ID) are different across all CCs. The UE may use higher MPR values outside this limitation.

For a UE that supports ‘UL full power transmission’ and is configured to transmit a single layer with nrofSRS-Ports = 2, the requirements for UL MIMO operation apply only when it is configured for any of its declared full power modes in IE FullPowerTransmission-r16 (as defined in TS 38.331[13]).

For a UE configured to transmit 2 layers, transmitter requirements for UL MIMO operation apply when the UE transmits on 2 ports on the same CDM group. The UE may use higher MPR values outside this limitation.
