= MIN { PEMAX, EN-DC ,PPowerClass, EN-DC – ΔPPowerClass, EN-DC } + 0.3 dB

If the EN-DC UE does not support dynamic power sharing, then the complete clauses for configured transmitted power for E-UTRA and NR respectively from their own specifications TS 36.101 [5] and TS 38.101-1 [2] respectively apply with the modifications specified above and applies.

When a UE supporting dynamic sharing is configured for overlapping E-UTRA uplink and NR uplink transmissions, the UE can set its configured maximum output power PCMAX_E-UTRA,c and PCMAX_NR,c for the configured E-UTRA and NR uplink carriers, respectively, and its configured maximum transmission power for EN-DC operation, , as specified above.

The measured total maximum output power PUMAX over both CGs/RATs, measured over the transmission reference time duration is

PUMAX = 10 log10 [pUMAX,c,E-UTRA + pUMAX,c,NR],

where pUMAX,c,E-UTRA and pUMAX,c,NR denotes the measured output power of serving cell c for E-UTRA and NR respectively, expressed in linear scale.

The measured total configured maximum output power PUMAX shall be within the following bounds:

PCMAX_L -TLOW (PCMAX_L) ≤ PUMAX ≤ PCMAX_H + THIGH (PCMAX_H)

with the tolerances TLOW(PCMAX_H) and THIGH(PCMAX_H) for applicable values of PCMAX specified in Table 6.2B.4.1.0.1.3-2.

When an UL subframe transmission p from E-UTRA overlap with a physical-channel q from the NR, then for PUMAX evaluation, the E-UTRA subframe p is taken as reference period TREF and always considered as the reference measurement duration and the following rules are applicable.

TREF and Teval are specified in Table 6.2B.4.1.0.1.3-1 when same or different subframe and physical-channel durations are used in aggregated carriers. PPowerClass ,EN-DC shall not be exceeded by the UE during any evaluation period of time.

For each TREF, the PCMAX_H is evaluated per Teval and given by the maximum value over the transmission(s) within the Teval as follows:

PCMAX_H = MAX { PCMAX_EN-DC_H (p,q) , PCMAX_EN-DC_H (p,q+1), … , PCMAX_EN-DC_H (p,q+n) }

where PCMAX_EN-DC_H are the applicable upper limits for each overlapping scheduling unit pairs (p,q) , (p, q+1) , up to (p, q+n) for each applicable Teval duration, where q+n is the last NR UL physical-channel overlapping with E-UTRA subframe p.

While PCMAX_L is computed as follows:

PCMAX_L = MIN { PCMAX_EN-DC_L (p,q) , PCMAX_EN-DC_L (p,q+1), … , PCMAX_EN-DC_L (p,q+n)}

where PCMAX_EN-DC_L are the applicable lower limits for each overlapping scheduling unit pairs (p,q) , (p, q+1) , up to (p, q+n) for each applicable Teval duration, where q+n is the last NR UL physical-channel overlapping with E-UTRA subframe p,

ELSE If b= TRUE

PCMAX_EN-DC_L(p,q) = MIN {10 log10 [pCMAX L_E-UTRA,c (p) ], PEMAX, EN-DC ,PPowerClass, EN-DC}

where

– pCMAX H_E-UTRA,c (p) is the E-UTRA higher limit of the maximum configured power expressed in linear scale;

– pCMAX H_NR,c (q) is the NR higher limit of the maximum configured power expressed in linear scale;

– pCMAX L_E-UTRA,c (p) is the E-UTRA lower limit of the maximum configured power expressed in linear scale;

– pCMAX L_NR,c(q) is the NR lower limit of the maximum configured power expressed in linear scale;

– PPowerClass, EN-DC is defined in clause 6.2B.1.3-1 for inter-band EN-DC;

– pCMAX_E-UTRA,c (p) is the linear value of PCMAX_E-UTRA,c (p), the configured max power for E-UTRA. If more than one E-UTRA uplink serving cell is configured as intra-band UL CA in the E-UTRA CG, PCMAX_ E-UTRA,c (p) will be replaced by PCMAX(p) which is the configured maximum power for the entire E-UTRA CG.

7. For the case of testing overlapping E-UTRA and NR UL transmission scenario when both bands are TDD, ensure E-UTRA UL transmission overlaps with NR UL transmission in time by giving SCG a delay of 3 E-UTRA subframes, or by giving MCG a delay of 2 subframes.

6.2B.4.1.1.4.2 Test procedure

1. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via PDCCH DCI format 0 and DCI format 0_1 for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according table 6.2B.4.1.1.4.1-1 on E-UTRA CC and NR CC respectively. For test points configured with message in Table 6.2B.4.1.1.4.3-1, NR SS only schedules UL RMC on NR slots that does not overlap with E-UTRA uplink subframe. Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

2. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands to the UE for NR and E-UTRA carrier until the UE transmits at its PUMAX level; allow at least 200 ms from the first TPC command for the UE to reach PUMAX level.

3. Measure the mean transmitted power over E-UTRA component carrier and NR component carrier respectively, or/and measure the sum of mean transmitted power over E-UTRA and NR component carriers according to Table 6.2B.4.1.1.5-1 and Table 6.2B.4.1.1.5-2. The period of the measurement shall be at least the continuous duration of one active sub-frame. For TDD, only slots consisting of only UL symbols are under test.

NOTE 1: When switching to DFT-s-OFDM waveform, as specified in the test configuration Table 6.2B.4.1.1.4.1-1, send an NR RRCReconfiguration message according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.6.3 Table 4.6.3-118 PUSCH-Config with TRANSFORM_PRECODER_ENABLED condition.

6.2B.4.1.2.4.2 Test procedure

1. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via PDCCH DCI format 0 and DCI format 0_1 for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according table 6.2B.4.1.2.4.1-1 on E-UTRA CC and NR CC respectively. Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

2. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands to the UE for NR and E-UTRA carrier until the UE transmits at its PUMAX level; allow at least 200 ms from the first TPC command for the UE to reach PUMAX level.

3. Measure the mean transmitted power over E-UTRA component carrier and NR component carrier respectively, or/and measure the sum of mean transmitted power over E-UTRA and NR component carriers according to Table 6.2B.4.1.2.5-1 and Table 6.2B.4.1.2.5-2. The period of the measurement shall be at least the continuous duration of one active sub-frame. For TDD, only slots consisting of only UL symbols are under test.

NOTE 1: When switching to DFT-s-OFDM waveform, as specified in the test configuration Table 6.2B.4.1.2.4.1-1, send an NR RRCReconfiguration message according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.6.3 Table 4.6.3-118 PUSCH-Config with TRANSFORM_PRECODER_ENABLED condition.

1. Connect the SS to the UE antenna connectors as shown in [6] TS 38.508-1 A.3.1.2.1 for SS diagram and A.3.2.1 for UE diagram.

2. The parameter settings for the E-UTRA cell are set up according to TS 36.508 [11] clause 4.4.3, and the parameter settings for the NR cell are set up according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.4.3.

3. Downlink signals are initially set up according to TS 36.521-1 [10] Annex C.0 and TS 38.521-1 [8] Annex C.0 for E-UTRA CG PCC and NR CG respectively, and uplink signals according to TS 36.521-1 [10] Annex H and TS 38.521-1 [8] Annex G for E-UTRA CG and NR CG respectively.

4. The UL Reference Measurement channels are set according to Table 6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.1-1.

5. Propagation conditions are set according to TS 36.521-1 [10] Annex B.0 and TS 38.521-1 [8] Annex B.0 for E-UTRA CG and NR CG respectively.

6. Ensure the UE is in state RRC_CONNECTED with generic procedure parameters Connectivity EN-DC, DC bearer MCG and SCG, Connected without release On according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.5. Message contents are defined in clause 6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.3.

7. For the case of testing overlapping E-UTRA and NR UL transmission scenario when both bands are TDD, ensure E-UTRA UL transmission overlaps with NR UL transmission in time by giving SCG a delay of 3 E-UTRA subframes, or by giving MCG a delay of 2 subframes.

6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.2 Test procedure

1. Configure E-UTRA SCC according to TS 36.521-1 [10] Annex C.0, C.1, and Annex C.3.0 for all E-UTRA downlink physical channels.

2. The SS shall configure SCC as per TS 36.508 [11] clause 5.2A.4. Message contents are defined in clause 6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.3.

3. SS activates SCC by sending the MAC-CE according to TS 36.321 clauses 5.13 and 6.1.3.8. Wait for at least 2 seconds as per TS 36.133  [12] clause 8.3.3.2.

4. SS sends uplink scheduling information for each UL HARQ process via PDCCH DCI format 0 and DCI format 0_1 for C_RNTI to schedule the UL RMC according Table 6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.1-1 on E-UTRA PCC and SCC and NR CC respectively. Since the UE has no payload and no loopback data to send the UE sends uplink MAC padding bits on the UL RMC.

5. Send continuously uplink power control "up" commands in every uplink scheduling information to the UE until the UE transmits at its PUMAX level; allow at least 200 ms from the first TPC command for the UE to reach PUMAX level.

6. Measure the mean transmitted power over E-UTRA CG and NR CG respectively, or/and measure the sum of mean transmitted power over E-UTRA CG and NR CG according to Table 6.2B.4.1.3_1.5-1 and Table 6.2B.4.1.3_1.5-2. The period of the measurement shall be at least the continuous duration of one active sub-frame. For TDD, only slots consisting of only UL symbols are under test.

NOTE 1: When switching to DFT-s-OFDM waveform, as specified in the test configuration Table 6.2B.4.1.3_1.4.1-1, send an NR RRCReconfiguration message according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.6.3 Table 4.6.3-118 PUSCH-Config with TRANSFORM_PRECODER_ENABLED condition.

This test case applies to all types of E-UTRA UE release 16 and forward, supporting inter-band EN-DC including FR2 with 1 NR UL CC and supporting mpr-PowerBoost-FR2-r16 UE capability.

6.2B.4.1.4_1.3 Minimum conformance requirements

UE configured output power requirement for E-UTRA single carrier and CA operation specified in subclauses 6.2.5 and 6.2.5A of [10] and for NR single carrier specified in subclause 6.2.4_1 of [9] apply.

No exception requirements applicable to NR or LTE. LTE anchor agnostic approach is applied.

The normative reference for this requirement is TS 38.101-3 [4] clause 6.2B.4.1.4.

6.2B.4.1.4_1.4 Test description

Same test description as in clause 6.2.4_1.4 in TS 38.521-2 [9] for the NR carrier with the following exceptions:

The initial test configurations for E-UTRA band consist of environmental conditions, test frequencies, and channel bandwidths based on E-UTRA bands specified in Table 4.6-1.

For Initial conditions as in clause 6.2.4_1.4.1 in TS 38.521-2 [9], the following steps will be added to configure E-UTRA component:

2.1. The parameter settings for the E-UTRA cell are set up according to TS 36.508 [11] clause 4.4.3 with E-UTRA channel bandwidth and test frequencies defined in Table 4.6-1.

3.1. Downlink E-UTRA signals are initially set up according to TS 36.521-1 [10] Annex C, clauses C.0, C.1 and C.3.0, and uplink signals according to Annex H, clauses H.1 and H.3.0.

4.1. The E-UTRA UL Reference Measurement channels are set according to Table 4.6-1.

Step 6 of Initial conditions as in clause 6.2.4_1 in TS 38.521-2 [9] is replaced by:

6. Ensure the UE is in state RRC_CONNECTED with generic procedure parameters Connectivity EN-DC, DC bearer MCG and SCG according to TS 38.508 [6] clause 4.5.

Same test procedure as in clause 6.2.4_1.4.2 in TS 38.521-2 [9] with the following steps added for E-UTRA component:

1.1 On the E-UTRA carrier, disable periodic and aperiodic CQI reports, disable SRS, set TimeAlignmentTimerDedicated IE to infinity and disable downlink and uplink scheduling, all as per Table 4.7-1 under clause 4.7.

6.2B.4.1.4_1.5 Test requirement

Same test requirement as in clause 6.2.4_1.5 in TS 38.521-2 [9] for the NR carrier.

6.2B.4.1.5 Configured Output Power for Inter-Band EN-DC including both FR1 and FR2

6.2B.4.1.5.1 Test purpose

Same test purpose as in clause 6.2.4.1 in TS 38.521-1 [8] for NR FR1 carrier and 6.2.4.1 in TS 38.521-2 [9] for NR FR2 carrier.

6.2B.4.1.5.2 Test applicability

The requirements in this test are not testable due to issues with combined testing of NR FR1 and E-UTRA in conducted mode with NR FR2 in radiated mode. Therefore, the conducted and radiated requirements are tested separately.

No test case details are specified. The EN-DC requirements for maximum output power apply and are tested as part of the EN-DC within FR1 and EN-DC including FR2 test cases in clause 6.2B.

6.2B.4.2 ΔTIB,c for EN-DC

For the UE which supports inter-band EN-DC configuration, ΔTIB,c in Tables below applies where unless otherwise stated, the same ΔTIB,c is applicable to NR band(s) part for DC configurations which have the same NR operating band combination. Unless otherwise stated, ΔTIB,c is set to zero.

Unless ΔTIB,c is specified for the NE-DC configuration, the specified ΔTIB,c for the EN-DC configuration including same bands as the corresponding NE-DC configuration is applicable for the NE-DC configuration.

6.2B.4.2.1 Intra-Band Contiguous EN-DC

ΔTIB,c is not applicable for intra-band contiguous EN-DC.

6.2B.4.2.2 Intra-Band non-Contiguous EN-DC

ΔTIB,c is not applicable for intra-band non-contiguous EN-DC.

6.2B.4.2.3 Inter-Band EN-DC within FR1

6.2B.4.2.3.1 ΔTIB,c for EN-DC two bands
