NOTE 1: Uplink EN-DC configurations are the configurations supported by the present release of specifications. NOTE 2: Requirements in this specification apply for NR SCS of 15 kHz only. NOTE 3: Single UL allowed due to potential emission issues, not self-interference. NOTE 4: For UE(s) supporting dynamic power sharing it is mandatory to do dual simultaneous UL. For UE(s) not supporting dynamic power sharing single UL is allowed. Uplink DC_(n)71AA is not applicable to BCS2. NOTE 5: The minimum requirements only apply for non-simultaneous Tx/Rx between all carriers. NOTE 6: Only single switched UL is supported |
