6.2B.1.1 Intra-band contiguous EN-DC
The following UE Power Classes define the total maximum output power for any transmission bandwidth(s) of the CG(s) configured.
The maximum output power is measured as the total maximum output power across the UE antenna connector(s). The period of measurement shall be at least one sub frame.

NOTE 1: An uplink DC configuration in which the band has NOTE 3 in Table 6.2.1-1 in TS 38.101-1 or NOTE 2 in Table 6.2.2-1 in TS 36.101 is allowed to reduce the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB when the transmission bandwidths of at least one of the bands are confined within FUL_low and FUL_low + 4 MHz or FUL_high – 4 MHz and FUL_high. NOTE 2: Power Class 3 is the default power class unless otherwise stated. NOTE 3: Only single switched UL is supported. |
If UE supports a different power class than the default UE power class for EN-DC band combination, and the supported power class enables higher maximum output power than that of the default power class:
– if the E-UTRA UL/DL configuration is 0 or 6; or
– if the E-UTRA UL/DL configuration is 1 and special subframe configuration is 0 or 5; or
– if the IE p-maxUE-FR1-r15 as defined in TS 36.331 [8] is provided and set to the maximum output power of the default power class or lower;
– apply all requirements for the default power class, and set the configured transmitted power as specified in clause 6.2B.4;
– else
– if the UE does not support a power class with higher maximum output power than power class 2; or
– if the E-UTRA UL/DL configuration is not 2 or 4 or 5; or
– if the field of UE IE maxUplinkDutyCycle-PC2-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is absent and the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is larger than 25% (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or
– if the field of UE IE maxUplinkDutyCycle-PC2-FR1 is not absent and the percentage of uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is larger than 0.5*maxUplinkDutyCycle-PC2-FR1 (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or
– if the IE P-Max as defined in TS 38.331 [9] is provided and set to the maximum output power of the power class 2 or lower;
– apply all requirements for the power class 2 and set the configured transmitted power as specified in clause 6.2B.4;

6.2B.1.3 Inter-band EN-DC within FR1
For inter-band EN-DC of E-UTRA and NR in FR1, the following UE Power Classes define the maximum output power for any transmission bandwidth within the aggregated channel bandwidth. The maximum output power is measured as the sum of the maximum output power at each UE antenna connector. The period of measurement shall be at least one sub frame (1ms). UE maximum output power shall be measured over all component carriers from different bands. If each band has separate antenna connectors, maximum output power is measured as the sum of maximum output power at each UE antenna connector.

NOTE 1: An uplink DC configuration in which at least one of the bands has NOTE 3 in Table 6.2.1-1 in TS 38.101-1 or NOTE 2 in Table 6.2.2-1 in TS 36.101 is allowed to reduce the lower tolerance limit by 1.5 dB when the transmission bandwidths of at least one of the bands is confined within FUL_low and FUL_low + 4 MHz or FUL_high – 4 MHz and FUL_high. NOTE 2: PPowerClass, EN-DC is the maximum UE power specified without taking into account the tolerance NOTE 3: For inter-band EN-DC the maximum power requirement should apply to the total transmitted power over all component carriers (per UE). NOTE 4: Power Class 3 is the default power class unless otherwise stated. NOTE 5: The UE is not required to support PC2 within each individual cell group. Power class support within each individual cell group is signaled separately by the UE. NOTE 6: The UE supports PC3 within E-UTRA cell group, and supports either PC3 or PC2 within NR cell group. Power class support within each individual cell group is signaled separately by the UE. NOTE 7: Only single switched UL is supported. NOTE 8: The UE that supports PC3 within a TDD or FDD band and supports PC2 within a second TDD band may signal a [HigherPowerLimitCADC] capability whereby the maximum output power indicated in the table may be exceeded in accordance with sub-clause 6.2B.4.1.3. |
If a UE supports a different power class than the default UE power class for an E-UTRA TDD and NR TDD Inter-band EN-DC band combination and the supported power class enables higher maximum output power than that of the default power class:
– if the field of UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandENDC-TDD-PC2-r16 is absent and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is larger than 30% (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or
– if the field of UE capability maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandENDC-TDD-PC2-r16 is not absent and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is larger than maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandENDC-TDD-PC2-r16 as defined in TS38.331 (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or
– if the IE p-maxUE-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is provided and set to the maximum output power of the default power class or lower;
– shall apply all requirements for the default power class to the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power as specified sub-clause 6.2B.4;
– Else if the IE p-maxUE-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is not provided or set to the higher value than the maximum output power of the default power class and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is less than or equal to maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandENDC-TDD-PC2-r16 as defined in TS 38.331; or
– if the IE p-maxUE-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is not provided or set to the higher value than the maximum output power of the default power class and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is less than or equal to 30% when maxUplinkDutyCycle-interBandENDC-TDD-PC2-r16 is absent. (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame):
– shall apply all requirements for the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power class as specified in sub-clause 6.2B.4.
If a UE supports a different power class than the default UE power class for an E-UTRA FDD and NR TDD EN-DC band combination and the supported power class enables higher maximum output power than that of the default power class:
If UE indicating the two capabilities maxUplinkDutyCycle-FDD-TDD-EN-DC1 and maxUplinkDutyCycle-FDD-TDD-EN-DC2:
– if the IE p-maxUE-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is not provided or set to the higher value than the maximum output power of the default power class, and the percentage of EUTRA uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is between 40% and 70%, and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is less than or equal tomaxUplinkDutyCycle-FDD-TDD-EN-DC1as defined in TS 38.331 (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame); or
– if the IE p-maxUE-FR1 as defined in TS 38.331 is not provided or set to the higher value than the maximum output power of the default power class, and the percentage of EUTRA uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is no larger than 40%, and the percentage of NR uplink symbols transmitted in a certain evaluation period is less than or equal to maxUplinkDutyCycle-FDD-TDD-EN-DC2 as defined in TS 38.331 (The exact evaluation period is no less than one radio frame)
– shall apply all requirements for the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power class as specified in sub-clause 6.2B.4.
– else
– shall apply all requirements for the default power class and set the configured transmitted power as specified sub-clause 6.2B.4;
else
– shall apply all requirements for the supported power class and set the configured transmitted power as specified sub-clause 6.2B.4;
6.2B.1.3a Inter-band NE-DC within FR1
For inter-band NE-DC of E-UTRA and NR in FR1, the following UE power classes define the maximum output power for any transmission bandwidth within the aggregated channel bandwidth. The maximum output power is measured as the sum of the maximum output power at each UE antenna connector. The period of measurement shall be at least one sub frame (1 ms). UE maximum output power shall be measured over all component carriers from different bands. If each band has separate antenna connectors, maximum output power is measured as the sum of maximum output power at each UE antenna connector.
