F.8.1 Measurement point

The measurement point for phase offset measurement is defined in Figure F.8.1-1.

F.8.2 Symbols used

Phase offset is determined based on DMRS REs (3 DMRS symbols per slot) with the option to use data symbols.

F.8.4 Phase offset measurement

The phase offset measurement is based on the phase response of the Tx chain as derived based on Annex F.4.

The phase difference for each subcarrier between a reference timeslot t_ref and the measurement timeslot t_m is then calculated as defined below:

The phase offset between the reference and measurement timeslots are then calculated as the maximum over the results for all subcarriers as shown below:

Annex G (normative):

Difference of relative phase and power errors
