D.4.1 General

This clause defines the pass/fail limit of FR2 3D-MPAC system for FR2 channel model validation.

D.4.2 Pass/Fail Criteria of PDP

This clause defines the pass/fail criteria of PDP, this pass/fail limits apply for all FR2 frequency bands.

The detailed pass/fail limits for each cluster of FR2 CDL-C UMi are defined in Table D.4.2-1.

D.4.3 Pass/Fail Criteria of Doppler/Temporal correlation

This clause defines the pass/fail criteria of doppler/temporal correlation validation, this pass/fail limits apply for all FR2 frequency bands.

The pass/fail limits for theoretical temporal correlation defined in Clause D.3.3 above 0.3 are formed as bands of ±0.1 of correlation capped at 1 at the high end. Additionally, when the theoretical temporal correlation drops below 0.3, the limits are formed at bands of ±0.3 of correlation capped at 0 at the low end.
