1. Connect the SS, the faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 38.508-1 [6] Annex A, in Figure A.3.1.7.6 for TE diagram and clause A.3.2.6 for UE diagram.
2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 5.2-1, Table 5.2A-1 to Table 5.2A-3 as appropriate.
3. Downlink signals for NR cell are initially set up according to Annexes C.0, C.1, C.2 and uplink signals according to Annexes G.0, G.1, G.2, G.3.1 of TS 38.521-1 [7].

5. Ensure the UE is in state RRC_CONNECTED with generic procedure parameters Connectivity NR for SA with Connected without Release On, Test Mode On according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.5. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2A.2.1.1.3.3.
5.2A.2.1.1.3.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and C.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCC as per TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 5.5.1. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2 A.2.1.1.3.3.
3. SS activates SCC by sending the activation MAC-CE (Refer TS 38.321 [24], clauses 5.9, 6.1.3.10). Wait for at least 1 second (Refer TS 38.133[25], clause9.3).
4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1_1 for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Tables 5.2A.2.1.0-1 to 5.2A.2.1.0-4 as appropriate on both PCC and SCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.
5. Set the parameters of the bandwidth, MCS, reference channel, the propagation condition, the correlation matrix and the SNR according to Tables 5.2A.2.1.0-1 to 5.2A.2.1.0-4 as appropriate on both PCC and SCC.
6. Measure the average throughput per each component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.1.5. Count the number of NACKs, ACKs and statDTXs on the UL and decide pass or fail according to Table G.1.5-1 in Annex G.1.5.
7. Repeat steps from 1 to 6 for each test points in Table 5.2A.2.1.0-4 as appropriate.

3. Downlink signals for NR cell are initially set up according to Annexes C.0, C.1, C.2 and uplink signals according to Annexes G.0, G.1, G.2, G.3.1 of TS 38.521-1 [7].
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1.
5. Ensure the UE is in state RRC_CONNECTED with generic procedure parameters Connectivity NR for SA with Connected without Release On, Test Mode On according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.5. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2A.2.4.1.3.3.
5.2A.2.4.1.3.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and C.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCC as per TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 5.5.1. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2A.2.4.1.3.3.
3. SS activates SCC by sending the activation MAC-CE (Refer TS 38.321 [18], clauses 5.9, 6.1.3.10). Wait for at least 1 second (Refer TS 38.133[19], clause 9.3).
4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1_1 for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Tables 5.2A.2.4.0-2 to 5.2A.2.4.0-5 as appropriate on both PCC and SCC. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.
5. Set the parameters of the bandwidth, MCS, reference channel, the propagation condition, the correlation matrix and the SNR according to 5.2A.2.4.1.3.4-1 and 5.2A.2.4.1.3.4-2 as appropriate on both PCC and SCC.
6. Measure the average throughput per each component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.1.5. Count the number of NACKs, ACKs and statDTXs on the UL and decide pass or fail according to Table G.1.5-1 in Annex G.1.5.
7. Repeat steps from 1 to 6 for each test points in Table 5.2A.2.4.1.3.1-1 as appropriate.

1. Connect the SS, the faders and AWGN noise source to the UE antenna connectors as shown in TS 38.508-1 [6] Annex A, in Figure A.3.1.7.1 for TE diagram and clause A.3.2.5 for UE diagram.
2. The parameter settings for the cell are set up according to Table 5.2-1, Table 5.2A-1 to Table 5.2A-3 as appropriate.
3. Downlink signals for NR cell are initially set up according to Annexes C.0, C.1, C.2 and uplink signals according to Annexes G.0, G.1, G.2, G.3.1 of TS 38.521-1 [7].
4. Propagation conditions are set according to Annex B.1.
5. Ensure the UE is in state RRC_CONNECTED with generic procedure parameters Connectivity NR for SA with Connected without Release On, Test Mode On according to TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 4.5. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2A.2.5.1.3.3.
5.2A.2.5.1.3.2 Test procedure
1. Configure SCC according to Annex C.0, C.1 and C.2 for all downlink physical channels.
2. The SS shall configure SCCs as per TS 38.508-1 [6] clause 5.5.1. Message contents are defined in clause 5.2A.2.5.1.3.3.
3. SS activates SCC by sending the activation MAC-CE (Refer TS 38.321 [18], clauses 5.9, 6.1.3.10). Wait for at least 1 second (Refer TS 38.133[19], clause 9.3).
4. SS transmits PDSCH via PDCCH DCI format 1_1 for C_RNTI to transmit the DL RMC according to Tables 5.2A.2.5.0-2 as appropriate on both PCC and SCCs. The SS sends downlink MAC padding bits on the DL RMC.
5. Set the parameters of the bandwidth, MCS, reference channel, the propagation condition, the correlation matrix and the SNR according to 5.2A.2.5.1.3.4-1 to 5.2A.2.5.1.3.4-4 as appropriate on both PCC and SCCs.
6. Measure the average throughput per each component carrier for a duration sufficient to achieve statistical significance according to Annex G.1.5. Count the number of NACKs, ACKs and statDTXs on the UL and decide pass or fail according to Table G.1.5-1 in Annex G.1.5.
7. Repeat steps from 1 to 6 for each test points in Table 5.2A.2.5.1.3.1-1 as appropriate.

5.2A.3A.1 Requirements for 2Rx-4RX normal PDSCH
5.2A.3A.1.0 Minimum conformance requirements for 2Rx-4RX normal PDSCH
For UE supporting a combination of 2Rx and 4Rx antenna port per component carrier,
The 2Rx requirements are defined in Table 5.2A.2.1.0-4 based on the single carrier requirements for different SCSs and different bandwidth specified in Table 5.2A.2.1.0-1 to Table 5.2A.2.1.0-3.
The 4Rx requirements are defined in Table 5.2A.3.1.0-4 based on the single carrier requirements for different SCSs and different bandwidth specified in Table 5.2A.3.1.0-1 to Table 5.2A.3.1.0-3.
Parameters are specified in Table 5.2A-1 to Table 5.2A-3 and the downlink physical channel setup according to Annex C.2.1.
