Calculate the complex ratios (amplitude and phase) of the post-FFT acquired signal $Z'(t, f)$ and the post-FFT ideal signal $I_2(t, f)$ , for each reference signal, over 10ms measurement interval. This process creates a set of complex ratios: + +$$a(t, f) \cdot e^{j\varphi(t, f)} = \frac{Z'(t, f)}{I_2(t, f)}$$ + +Where the post-FFT ideal signal $I_2(t, f)$ is constructed by the measuring equipment according to the relevant TX specifications, using the following parameters: i.e. nominal demodulation reference signals, (all other modulation symbols are set to 0 V), nominal carrier frequency, nominal amplitude and phase for each applicable subcarrier, nominal timing. + +2. Perform time averaging at each reference signal subcarrier of the complex ratios, the time-averaging length is 10ms measurement interval. Prior to the averaging of the phases $\varphi(t_i, f)$ an unwrap operation must be performed according to the following definition: The unwrap operation corrects the radian phase angles of $\varphi(t_i, f)$ by adding multiples of $2\pi$ when absolute phase jumps between consecutive time instances $t_i$ are greater than or equal to the jump tolerance of $\pi$ radians. This process creates an average amplitude and phase for each reference signal subcarrier (i.e. every second subcarrier). + +$$a(f) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^N a(t_i, f)}{N}$$ + +$$\varphi(f) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^N \varphi(t_i, f)}{N}$$ + +Where $N$ is the number of reference signal; time-domain locations $t_i$ from $Z'(t, f)$ for each reference signal subcarrier $f$ . + +3. The equalizer coefficients for amplitude and phase $\hat{a}(f)$ and $\hat{\varphi}(f)$ at the reference signal subcarriers are obtained by computing the moving average in the frequency domain of the time-averaged reference signal subcarriers, i.e. every second subcarrier. The moving average window size is 19 and averaging is over the DM-RS subcarriers in the allocated RBs. For DM-RS subcarriers at or near the edge of the channel, or when the number of available DM-RS subcarriers within a set of contiguously allocated RBs is smaller than the moving average window size, the window size is reduced accordingly as per figure B.6-1. +4.

Both diagrams show a curve representing the EVM values across subcarriers, with arrows indicating the averaging process. + +Figure B.6-1: Reference subcarrier smoothing in the frequency domain + +## B.7 Averaged EVM + +EVM is averaged over all allocated downlink resource blocks with the considered modulation scheme in the frequency domain, and a minimum of $N_{dl}$ slots where $N_{dl}$ is the number of slots in a 10 ms measurement interval. + +For FDD the averaging in the time domain equals the $N_{dl}$ slot duration of the 10 ms measurement interval from the equalizer estimation step. + +$$\overline{EVM}_{frame} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{\sum_{i=1}^{N_{dl}} N_i} \sum_{i=1}^{N_{dl}} \sum_{j=1}^{N_i} EVM_{i,j}^2}$$ + +- Where $N_i$ is the number of resource blocks with the considered modulation scheme in slot $i$ . +- The EVM requirements shall be tested against the maximum of the RMS average at the window $W$ extremities of the EVM measurements: +- Thus $\overline{EVM}_{frame,l}$ is calculated using $\Delta\tilde{t} = \Delta\tilde{t}_l$ in the expressions above and $\overline{EVM}_{frame,h}$ is calculated using $\Delta\tilde{t} = \Delta\tilde{t}_h$ in the $\overline{EVM}_{frame}$ calculation. +- Thus we get: + +$$\overline{EVM} = \max(\overline{EVM}_{frame,l}, \overline{EVM}_{frame,h})$$ + +## Annex C (normative): Characteristics of the interfering signals + +The interfering signal shall be a PUSCH or PDSCH containing data and DM-RS symbols.

10.5.1 | + +## Annex D (Normative): Propagation conditions + +### D.1 Static propagation condition + +The propagation for the static performance measurement is an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) environment. No fading or multi-paths exist for this propagation model. + +### D.2 Multi-path fading propagation conditions + +The multipath propagation conditions consist of several parts: + +- A delay profile in the form of a "tapped delay-line", characterized by a number of taps at fixed positions on a sampling grid. The profile can be further characterized by the r.m.s. delay spread and the maximum delay spanned by the taps. +- A combination of channel model parameters that include the Delay profile and the Doppler spectrum that is characterized by a classical spectrum shape and a maximum Doppler frequency. + +#### D.2.1 Delay profiles + +The delay profiles are simplified from the TR 38.811 [13] TDL models. The simplification steps are shown below for information. These steps are only used when new delay profiles are created. Otherwise, the delay profiles specified in G.2.1.1 can be used as such. + +- Step 1: Use the original TDL model from TR 38.811 [13]. +- Step 2: Re-order the taps in ascending delays +- Step 3: Perform delay scaling according to the procedure described in clause 7.7.2 in TR 38.901 [12]. +- Step 4: Apply the quantization to the delay resolution 5 ns. This is done simply by rounding the tap delays to the nearest multiple of the delay resolution. +- Step 5: If multiple Rayleigh taps are rounded to the same delay bin, merge them by calculating their linear power sum. +- Step 6: If there is a LOS path in the model, the power for all paths could be slightly adjusted to keep the RMS delay spread is close to target delay spread and mean power is 0dB. + +- Step 7: Round the amplitudes of taps to one decimal (e.g. -8.78 dB → -8.8 dB) +- Step 8: If the delay spread has slightly changed due to the tap merge, adjust the final delay spread by increasing or decreasing the power of the last tap so that the delay spread is corrected. +- Step 9: Re-normalize the highest Rayleigh tap to 0 dB when there is no LOS path in the model. + +Note 1: Some values of the delay profile created by the simplification steps may differ from the values in tables G.2.1.1-2 and G.2.1.1-3 for the corresponding model. + +Note 2: For Step 5 and Step 6, the power values are expressed in the linear domain using 6 digits of precision. The operations are in the linear domain. + +### D.2.1.1 Delay profiles for FR1 + +The delay profiles for FR1 are selected to be representative of low, medium and high delay spread environment.

If the manufacturer has declared the antenna connectors to be equivalent (D.13), it is sufficient to measure the signal at any one of the UE-side *antenna connectors*. + +### 4.5.4 Duplexers + +The requirements of the present document shall be met with a duplexer fitted, if a duplexer is supplied as part of the repeater. If the duplexer is supplied as an option by the manufacturer, sufficient tests should be repeated with and without the duplexer fitted to verify that the repeater meets the requirements of the present document in both cases. + +The following tests shall be performed with the duplexer fitted, and without it fitted if this is an option: + +- 1) clause 6.2, repeater output power, for the highest static power step only, if this is measured at the antenna connector; +- 2) clause 6.4, out of band gain; outside the repeater downlink or uplink band; +- 3) clause 6.5, unwanted emissions; outside the repeater downlink or uplink band; +- 4) clause 6.7, output intermodulation; for the testing of conformance, the carrier frequencies should be selected to minimize intermodulation products from the transmitters falling in receive channels. +- 5) clause 6.9, Adjacent Channel Rejection Ratio; outside the repeater downlink or uplink band. + +The remaining tests may be performed with or without the duplexer fitted. + +NOTE 1: When performing receiver tests with a duplexer fitted, it is important to ensure that the output from the transmitters does not affect the test apparatus. This can be achieved using a combination of attenuators, isolators and filters. + +NOTE 2: When duplexers are used, intermodulation products will be generated, not only in the duplexer but also in the antenna system. The intermodulation products generated in the antenna system are not controlled by 3GPP specifications, and may degrade during operation (e.g. due to moisture ingress). Therefore, to ensure continued satisfactory operation of a repeater, an operator will normally select NR-ARFCNs to minimize intermodulation products falling on receive channels. For testing of complete conformance, an operator may specify the NR-ARFCNs to be used. + +### 4.5.5 Power supply options + +If the repeater is supplied with a number of different power supply configurations, it may not be necessary to test RF parameters for each of the power supply options, provided that it can be demonstrated that the range of conditions over which the equipment is tested is at least as great as the range of conditions due to any of the power supply configurations. + +### 4.5.6 Ancillary RF amplifiers + +The *repeater type 1-C* requirements of the present document shall be met with the ancillary RF amplifier fitted. At tests, the ancillary amplifier is connected to the repeater by a connecting network (including any cable(s), attenuator(s), etc.) with applicable loss to make sure the appropriate operating conditions of the ancillary amplifier and the repeater. The applicable connecting network loss range is declared by the manufacturer (D.14). Other characteristics and the temperature dependence of the attenuation of the connecting network are neglected. The actual attenuation value of the connecting network is chosen for each test as one of the applicable extreme values. The lowest value is used unless otherwise stated. + +Sufficient tests should be repeated with the ancillary amplifier fitted and, if it is optional, without the ancillary RF amplifier to verify that the repeater meets the requirements of the present document in both cases. + +When testing, the following tests shall be repeated with the optional ancillary amplifier fitted according to the table below, where "x" denotes that the test is applicable: + +**Table 4.5.6-1: Tests applicable to ancillary RF amplifiers** + +| Clause | Ancillary RF amplifier needed | +|--------|-------------------------------| +| 6.2 | x | +| 6.4 | x | +| 6.5 | x | +| 6.7 | x | +| 6.8 | x | +| 6.9 | x | + +In repeater output power test (clause 6.2) highest applicable attenuation value is applied. + +### 4.5.7 Combining of repeaters + +If the repeater is intended for combination with additional apparatus connected to a repeater port and this combination is supplied as a system, the combination of repeater together with the additional apparatus shall also fulfil the repeater requirements. E.g. if the repeater is intended for combination such that multiple repeaters amplify the same signals into the same ports the combination shall also fulfil the repeater requirements. + +An example of such a configuration is shown in figure 4.5.7-1. + +![Figure 4.5.7-1: Example of repeater configuration.

Spurious emissions are emissions which are caused by unwanted transmitter effects such as harmonics emission, parasitic emission, intermodulation products and frequency conversion products, but exclude out of band emissions. + +The out-of-band emissions requirement for the Repeater transmitter is specified both in terms of Adjacent Channel Leakage power Ratio (ACLR) and *operating band* unwanted emissions (OBUE). + +The maximum offset of the *operating band* unwanted emissions mask from the *operating band* edge is $\Delta f_{OBUE}$ . The Operating band unwanted emissions define all unwanted emissions in each supported downlink *operating band* of *repeater type 1-C* DL and uplink *operating band* of *repeater type 1-C* UL, plus the frequency ranges $\Delta f_{OBUE}$ above and $\Delta f_{OBUE}$ below each band.

The algorithm chosen for description inside this annex places particular emphasis on the exclusion of all interdependencies among the parameters. + +## E.2 Basic principles + +The process is based on the comparison of the actual output signal of the repeater under test, received by an ideal receiver, with an ideal signal, that is generated by the measuring equipment and represents an ideal error free received signal. All signals are represented as equivalent (generally complex) baseband signals. + +The description below uses numbers and illustrations as examples only. These numbers are taken from a FDD frame structure with normal CP length, 30 kHz SCS and a transmission bandwidth configuration of 100 MHz ( $N_{RB} = 273$ ). The application of the text below, however, is not restricted to this parameter set. + +### E.2.1 Output signal of the repeater under test + +The output signal of the repeater under test is acquired by the measuring equipment and stored for further processing. It is sampled at a sampling rate which is the product of the SCS and the *FFT size*, and it is named $z(v)$ . The *FFT size* is determined by the transmission bandwidth in table 6.6.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.6.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS in [6]. In the time domain, it comprises at least 10 ms. It is modelled as a signal with the following parameters: + +- demodulated data content, +- carrier frequency, +- amplitude and phase for each subcarrier. + +For the example in the annex, the *FFT size* is 4096 based on table 6.6.3.5-3 in [6]. The sampling rate of 122.88 Msps is the product of the *FFT size* and SCS. + +### E.2.2 Ideal signal + +Two types of ideal signals are defined: + +The first ideal signal $i_1(v)$ is constructed by the measuring equipment according to the relevant TX specifications, using the following parameters: + +- demodulated data content, +- nominal carrier frequency, +- nominal amplitude and phase for each subcarrier. + +It is represented as a sequence of samples at the sampling rate determined from annex E.2.1 in the time domain. The structure of the signal is described in the test models. + +The second ideal signal $i_2(v)$ is constructed by the measuring equipment according to the relevant TX specifications, using the following parameters: + +- nominal demodulation reference signals (all other modulation symbols are set to 0 V), +- nominal carrier frequency, +- nominal amplitude and phase for each applicable subcarrier, + +- nominal timing. + +It is represented as a sequence of samples at the sampling rate determined from annex E.2.1 in the time domain. + +## E.2.3 Measurement results + +The measurement results, achieved by the in-channel TX test are the following: + +- Carrier frequency stability +- EVM + +## E.2.4 Measurement points + +The EVM shall be measured at the point after the FFT and a zero-forcing (ZF) equalizer in the receiver, as depicted for FR1 in figure E.2.4-1. The FFT window of *FFT size* samples out of (*FFT size* + cyclic prefix length) samples in the time domain is selected in the "Remove CP" box. The *FFT size* and the cyclic prefix length are obtained from table 6.6.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.6.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.6.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS in [6]. + +In one subframe, there are two symbols with the length of the cyclic prefix larger than the values listed in tables 6.6.3.5-2, 6.6.3.5-3 and 6.6.3.5-4 in [6]. Table E.2.4-1 lists the slot number and the symbol number and the formula how to compute the length of cyclic prefix for those two symbols according to the sampling rate. + +**Table E.2.4-1: Slot number and symbol number identifying the longer CP length for normal CP** + +| SCS (kHz) | # slots in subframe | Symbol # and slot # with longer CP | Longer CP length | +|-----------|---------------------|------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| +| 15 | 1 | (symbol 0, slot 0)

(symbol 0, slot 2) | CP length + FFT size / 32 | + +For the example used in the annex, the "Remove CP" box selects 4096 samples out of 4384 samples.

A 'Reference point for EVM measurement' is indicated below the 'Per-subcarrier Amplitude/phase correction' block. + +**Figure E.2.4-1: Reference point for FR1 EVM measurements** + +## E.3 Pre-FFT minimization process + +Sample Timing, Carrier Frequency in $z(v)$ are varied in order to minimise the difference between $z(v)$ and $i_1(v)$ , after the amplitude ratio of $z(v)$ and $i_1(v)$ has been scaled. Best fit (minimum difference) is achieved when the RMS difference value between $z(v)$ and $i_1(v)$ is an absolute minimum. + +The carrier frequency variation is the measurement result: carrier frequency stability. + +From the acquired samples, one value of carrier frequency stability can be derived. + +NOTE 1: The minimisation process, to derive the RF error can be supported by post-FFT operations. However the minimisation process defined in the pre-FFT domain comprises all acquired samples (i.e. it does not exclude the samples inbetween the FFT widths and it does not exclude the bandwidth outside the transmission bandwidth configuration). + +NOTE 2: The algorithm would allow to derive carrier frequency error and sample frequency error of the TX under test separately. However there are no requirements for sample frequency error. Hence the algorithm models the RF and the sample frequency commonly (not independently). It returns one error and does not distinguish between both. + +After this process, the samples $z(v)$ are called $z^0(v)$ . + +## E.4 Timing of the FFT window + +The FFT window length is *FFT size* samples per OFDM symbol. For FDD, there are $14N_{dt}$ FFTs performed where $N_{dt}$ is the number of slots in a 10 ms measurement interval, and the number of symbols in a slot for normal CP is 14. + +The position in time for the FFT shall be determined. + +For the example used in the annex, the FFT window length is 4096 samples per OFDM symbol. 280 FFTs (i.e. 1,146,880 samples) cover less than the acquired number of samples (i.e. 1,228,800 samples in 10 ms). + +In an ideal signal, the FFT may start at any instant within the cyclic prefix without causing an error. The TX filter, however, reduces the window. The EVM requirements shall be met within a window $W < CP$ . There are three different instants for FFT: + +- Centre of the reduced window, called $\Delta\tilde{c}$ , +- $\Delta c - W/2$ , and +- $\Delta c + W/2$ . + +The value of EVM window length $W$ is obtained from tables 6.6.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, 6.6.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and 6.6.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS in [6] and the transmission bandwidth. + +The repeater shall transmit a signal according to the test models intended for EVM. The demodulation reference signal of the second ideal signal shall be used to find the centre of the FFT window. + +The timing of the measured signal is determined in the pre-FFT domain as follows, using $z^0(v)$ and $i_2(v)$ : + +1. The measured signal is delay spread by the TX filter. Hence the distinct borders between the OFDM symbols and between data and CP are also spread and the timing is not obvious. +2. In the ideal signal $i_2(v)$ , the timing is known. + +Correlation between bullet (1) and (2) will result in a correlation peak. The meaning of the correlation peak is approximately the "impulse response" of the TX filter. + +3. The meaning of "impulse response" assumes that the autocorrelation of the ideal signal $i_2(v)$ is a Dirac peak and that the correlation between the ideal signal $i_2(v)$ and the data in the measured signal is 0. The correlation peak, (the highest, or in case of more than one highest, the earliest) indicates the timing in the measured signal. + +The number of samples used for FFT is reduced compared to $z^0(v)$ . This subset of samples is called $z'(v)$ . + +From the acquired samples one timing can be derived. + +The timing of the centre $\Delta\tilde{c}$ is determined according to the cyclic prefix length of the OFDM symbols. For normal CP, there are two values for $\Delta\tilde{c}$ in a 1 ms period: + +- $\Delta\tilde{c}$ = length of cyclic prefix / 2, +- $\Delta\tilde{c}$ = Longer CP length - length of cyclic prefix / 2, + +Where the length of cyclic prefix is obtained from table 6.6.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.6.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.6.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS in [6], and the longer CP length is obtained from table F.2.4-1. + +As per the example values: + +- $\Delta\tilde{c}$ = 144 within the CP of length 288 for OFDM symbols 1 to 13 of a slot, +- $\Delta\tilde{c}$ = 208 = 352 - 144) within the CP of length 352 for OFDM symbol 0 of a slot. + +## E.5 Resource element TX power + +Perform FFT on $z'(v)$ with the FFT window timing $\Delta\tilde{c}$ . The result is called $Z'(t, f)$ . The RE TX power (RETP) is then defined as: + +$$RETP = |Z'(t, f)|^2 SCS$$ + +Where SCS is the subcarrier spacing in Hz. + +From RETP the OFDM Symbol TX power (OSTP) is derived as follows: + +$$OSTP = \frac{1}{N_{sym}} \sum RETP$$ + +Where the summation accumulates $N_{RB} N_{sc}^{RB}$ RETP values of all $N_{sym}$ OFDM symbols that carry PDSCH and not containing PDCCH, RS or SSB within a slot. + +From the acquired samples, $N_{dl}$ values for each OSTP can be obtained and averaged where $N_{dl}$ is the number of slots in a 10 ms measurement interval for FDD. For TDD, $N_{dl}$ is the number of slots with downlink symbols in a 10 ms measurement interval and is computed according to the values in table 4.9.2.2-1 in [6]. + +For the example used in the annex, $N_{dl} = 20$ and $N_{RB} = 273$ . + +## E.6 Post-FFT equalisation + +Perform $14N_{dl}$ FFTs on $z'(v)$ , one for each OFDM symbol within 10 ms measurement interval with the FFT window timing to produce an array of samples, $14N_{dl}$ in the time axis $t$ by $FFT\ size$ in the frequency axis $f$ . + +For the example in the annex, 280 FFTs are performed on $z'(v)$ . The result is an array of samples, 280 in the time axis by 4096 in the frequency axis. + +The equalizer coefficients $\tilde{a}(f)$ and $\tilde{\varphi}(f)$ are determined as follows: + +1. Calculate the complex ratios (amplitude and phase) of the post-FFT acquired signal $Z'(t, f)$ and the post-FFT ideal signal $I_2(t, f)$ for each demodulation reference signal, over 10 ms measurement interval. This process creates a set of complex ratios: + +$$a(t, f) e^{j\varphi(t, f)} = \frac{Z'(t, f)}{I_2(t, f)}$$ + +2. Perform time averaging at each demodulation reference signal subcarrier of the complex ratios, the time-averaging length is 10 ms measurement interval. Prior to the averaging of the phases $\varphi(t_i, f)$ an unwrap operation must be performed according to the following definition: + +- The unwrap operation corrects the radian phase angles of $\varphi(t_i, f)$ by adding multiples of $2 * \pi$ when absolute phase jumps between consecutive time instances $t_i$ are greater than or equal to the jump tolerance of $\pi$ radians. +- This process creates an average amplitude and phase for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier (i.e. every second subcarrier). + +$$a(f) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^N a(t_i, f)}{N}$$ + +and + +$$\varphi(f) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^N \varphi(t_i, f)}{N}$$ + +Where $N$ is the number of demodulation reference signals time-domain locations $t_i$ from $Z'(t, f)$ for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier $f$ . + +3. The equalizer coefficients for amplitude and phase $\hat{a}(f)$ and $\hat{\varphi}(f)$ at the demodulation reference signal subcarriers are obtained by computing the moving average in the frequency domain of the time-averaged demodulation reference signal subcarriers. The moving average window size is 19 and averaging is over the DM-RS subcarriers in the allocated RBs. For DM-RS subcarriers at or near the edge of the channel, or when the number of available DM-RS subcarriers within a set of contiguously allocated RBs is smaller than the moving average window size, the window size is reduced accordingly as per figure F.6-1. +4. Perform linear interpolation from the equalizer coefficients $\hat{a}(f)$ and $\hat{\varphi}(f)$ to compute coefficients $\tilde{a}(f)$ , $\tilde{\varphi}(f)$ for each subcarrier. + +![Diagram A: Moving averaging at channel edge.

When a requirement is applied for a group of *TAB connectors* then the test uncertainty is applied to sum of the measured power on each *TAB connector* in the group. + +The Test System shall enable the stimulus signals in the test case to be adjusted to within the specified tolerance and the equipment under test to be measured with an uncertainty not exceeding the specified values. All tolerances and uncertainties are absolute values, and are valid for a confidence level of 95 %, unless otherwise stated. + +A confidence level of 95 % is the measurement uncertainty tolerance interval for a specific measurement that contains 95 % of the performance of a population of test equipment. + +For RF tests, it should be noted that the uncertainties in clause 4.1.2 apply to the Test System operating into a nominal 50 ohm load and do not include system effects due to mismatch between the DUT and the Test System. + +#### 4.1.2.2 Measurement of transmitter + +**Table 4.1.2.2-1: Maximum Test System uncertainty for transmitter tests** + +| Clause | Maximum Test System Uncertainty | Derivation of Test System Uncertainty | +|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| +| 6.2 Base Station output power | ±0.7 dB, $f \leq 3$ GHz

The intermodulation products generated in the antenna system are not controlled by 3GPP specifications, and may degrade during operation (e.g. due to moisture ingress). Therefore, to ensure continued satisfactory operation of a BS, an operator will normally select NR-ARFCNs to minimize intermodulation products falling on receive channels. For testing of complete conformance, an operator may specify the NR-ARFCNs to be used. + +#### 4.5.1.4 Power supply options + +If the BS is supplied with a number of different power supply configurations, it may not be necessary to test RF parameters for each of the power supply options, provided that it can be demonstrated that the range of conditions over which the equipment is tested is at least as great as the range of conditions due to any of the power supply configurations. + +This applies particularly if a BS contains a DC rail which can be supplied either externally or from an internal mains power supply. In this case, the conditions of extreme power supply for the mains power supply options can be tested by testing only the external DC supply option. The range of DC input voltages for the test should be sufficient to verify the performance with any of the power supplies, over its range of operating conditions within the BS, including variation of mains input voltage, temperature and output current. + +#### 4.5.1.5 Ancillary RF amplifiers + +The *BS type 1-C* requirements of the present document shall be met with the ancillary RF amplifier fitted. At tests according to clauses 6 and 7 for TX and RX respectively, the ancillary amplifier is connected to the BS by a connecting network (including any cable(s), attenuator(s), etc.) with applicable loss to make sure the appropriate operating conditions of the ancillary amplifier and the BS. The applicable connecting network loss range is declared by the manufacturer (D.35). Other characteristics and the temperature dependence of the attenuation of the connecting network are neglected. The actual attenuation value of the connecting network is chosen for each test as one of the applicable extreme values. The lowest value is used unless otherwise stated. + +Sufficient tests should be repeated with the ancillary amplifier fitted and, if it is optional, without the ancillary RF amplifier to verify that the BS meets the requirements of the present document in both cases. + +When testing, the following tests shall be repeated with the optional ancillary amplifier fitted according to the table below, where "x" denotes that the test is applicable: + +**Table 4.5.1.5-1: Tests applicable to ancillary RF amplifiers** + +| | Clause | TX amplifier only | RX amplifier only | TX/RX amplifiers combined (Note 1, 2) | +|--------------------------|---------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|---------------------------------------| +| Receiver tests | 7.2 | | x | x | +| | 7.4 (Narrowband blocking) | | x | x | +| | 7.5 | | x | x | +| | 7.6 | | x | x | +| | 7.7 | | x | | +| Transmitter tests | 6.2 | x | | x | +| | 6.6.2 | x | | x | +| | 6.6.3 | x | | x | +| | 6.6.4 | x | | x | +| | 6.6.5 | x | | x | +| | 6.7 | x | | x | + +NOTE 1: Combining can be by duplex filters or any other network.

No fading or multi-paths exist for this propagation model. + +--- + +### G.2 Multi-path fading propagation conditions + +The multipath propagation conditions consist of several parts: + +- A delay profile in the form of a "tapped delay-line", characterized by a number of taps at fixed positions on a sampling grid. The profile can be further characterized by the r.m.s. delay spread and the maximum delay spanned by the taps. +- A combination of channel model parameters that include the Delay profile and the Doppler spectrum that is characterized by a classical spectrum shape and a maximum Doppler frequency. +- Different models are used for FR1 (410 MHz - 7.125 GHz) and FR2 (24.25 GHz – 52.6 GHz). + +#### G.2.1 Delay profiles + +The delay profiles are simplified from the TR 38.901 [20] TDL models. The simplification steps are shown below for information. These steps are only used when new delay profiles are created. Otherwise, the delay profiles specified in G.2.1.1 can be used as such. + +- Step 1: Use the original TDL model from TR 38.901 [20]. +- Step 2: Re-order the taps in ascending delays +- Step 3: Perform delay scaling according to the procedure described in clause 7.7.3 in TR 38.901 [20]. +- Step 4: Apply the quantization to the delay resolution 5 ns. This is done simply by rounding the tap delays to the nearest multiple of the delay resolution. +- Step 5: If multiple taps are rounded to the same delay bin, merge them by calculating their linear power sum. +- Step 6: If there are more than 12 taps in the quantized model, merge the taps as follows + - Find the weakest tap from all taps (both merged and unmerged taps are considered) + - If there are two or more taps having the same value and are the weakest, select the tap with the smallest delay as the weakest tap. + - When the weakest tap is the first delay tap, merge taps as follows + - Update the power of the first delay tap as the linear power sum of the weakest tap and the second delay tap. + - Remove the second delay tap. + +- When the weakest tap is the last delay tap, merge taps as follows + - Update the power of the last delay tap as the linear power sum of the second-to-last tap and the last tap. + - Remove the second-to-last tap. +- Otherwise + - For each side of the weakest tap, identify the neighbour tap that has the smaller delay difference to the weakest tap. + - When the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on one side equals the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on the other side. + - Select the neighbour tap that is weaker in power for merging. + - Otherwise, select the neighbour tap that has smaller delay difference for merging. + - To merge, the power of the merged tap is the linear sum of the power of the weakest tap and the selected tap. + - When the selected tap is the first tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the first tap. The weakest tap is removed. + - When the selected tap is the last tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the last tap. The weakest tap is removed. + - Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is based on the average delay of the weakest tap and selected tap. If the average delay is on the sampling grid, the location of the merged tap is the average delay. Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is rounded towards the direction of the selected tap (e.g. 10 ns & 20 ns → 15 ns, 10 ns & 25 ns → 20 ns, if 25 ns had higher or equal power; 15 ns, if 10 ns had higher power). The weakest tap and the selected tap are removed. +- Repeat step 6 until the final number of taps is 12. +- Step 7: Round the amplitudes of taps to one decimal (e.g. -8.78 dB → -8.8 dB) +- Step 8: If the delay spread has slightly changed due to the tap merge, adjust the final delay spread by increasing or decreasing the power of the last tap so that the delay spread is corrected. +- Step 9: Re-normalize the highest tap to 0 dB. + +Note 1: Some values of the delay profile created by the simplification steps may differ from the values in tables G.2.1.1-2, G.2.1.1-3, and G.2.1.1-4 for the corresponding model. + +Note 2: For Step 5 and Step 6, the power values are expressed in the linear domain using 6 digits of precision.

The algorithm chosen for description inside this annex places particular emphasis on the exclusion of all interdependencies among the parameters. + +--- + +### H.2 Basic principles + +The process is based on the comparison of the actual output signal of the TX under test, received by an ideal receiver, with an ideal signal, that is generated by the measuring equipment and represents an ideal error free received signal. All signals are represented as equivalent (generally complex) baseband signals. + +The description below uses numbers and illustrations as examples only. These numbers are taken from a FDD frame structure with normal CP length, 30 kHz SCS and a transmission bandwidth configuration of 100 MHz ( $N_{RB}=273$ ). The application of the text below, however, is not restricted to this parameter set. + +#### H.2.1 Output signal of the TX under test + +The output signal of the TX under test is acquired by the measuring equipment and stored for further processing. It is sampled at a sampling rate which is the product of the SCS and the *FFT size*, and it is named $s_{TX}$ . The *FFT size* is determined by the transmission bandwidth in table 6.5.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.5.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS. In the time domain, it comprises at least 10 ms. It is modelled as a signal with the following parameters: + +- demodulated data content, +- carrier frequency, +- amplitude and phase for each subcarrier. + +For the example in the annex, the *FFT size* is 4096 based on table 6.5.3.5-3. The sampling rate of 122.88 Msps is the product of the *FFT size* and SCS. + +#### H.2.2 Ideal signal + +Two types of ideal signals are defined: + +The first ideal signal is constructed by the measuring equipment according to the relevant TX specifications, using the following parameters: + +- demodulated data content, +- nominal carrier frequency, +- nominal amplitude and phase for each subcarrier. + +It is represented as a sequence of samples at the sampling rate determined from annex H.2.1 in the time domain. The structure of the signal is described in the test models. + +The second ideal signal is constructed by the measuring equipment according to the relevant TX specifications, using the following parameters: + +- nominal demodulation reference signals (all other modulation symbols are set to 0 V), +- nominal carrier frequency, +- nominal amplitude and phase for each applicable subcarrier, +- nominal timing. + +It is represented as a sequence of samples at the sampling rate determined from annex H.2.1 in the time domain. + +## H.2.3 Measurement results + +The measurement results, achieved by the in-channel TX test are the following: + +- Carrier frequency error +- EVM +- Resource element TX power + - OFDM symbol TX power (OSTP) + +Other side results are: residual amplitude- and phase response of the TX chain after equalisation. + +## H.2.4 Measurement points + +The resource element TX power is measured after the FFT box as described in figure H.2.4-1. The EVM shall be measured at the point after the FFT and a zero-forcing (ZF) equalizer in the receiver, as depicted for FR1 in figure H.2.4-1.

Best fit (minimum difference) is achieved when the RMS difference value between and is an absolute minimum. + +The carrier frequency variation is the measurement result: carrier frequency error. + +From the acquired samples, one value of carrier frequency error can be derived. + +- Note 1: The minimisation process, to derive the RF error can be supported by post-FFT operations. However the minimisation process defined in the pre-FFT domain comprises all acquired samples (i.e. it does not exclude the samples inbetween the FFT widths and it does not exclude the bandwidth outside the transmission bandwidth configuration). +- Note 2: The algorithm would allow to derive carrier frequency error and sample frequency error of the TX under test separately. However there are no requirements for sample frequency error. Hence the algorithm models the RF and the sample frequency commonly (not independently). It returns one error and does not distinguish between both. + +After this process, the samples are called . + +## H.4 Timing of the FFT window + +The FFT window length is *FFT size* samples per OFDM symbol. For FDD, there are FFTs performed where is the number of slots in a 10 ms measurement interval, and the number of symbols in a slot for normal CP is 14. + +The position in time for the FFT shall be determined. + +For the example used in the annex, the FFT window length is 4096 samples per OFDM symbol. 280 FFTs (i.e. 1,146,880 samples) cover less than the acquired number of samples (i.e. 1,228,800 samples in 10 ms). + +In an ideal signal, the FFT may start at any instant within the cyclic prefix without causing an error. The TX filter, however, reduces the window. The EVM requirements shall be met within a window $W < CP$ . There are three different instants for FFT: + +- Centre of the reduced window, called $t_{FFT}$ , +- $t_{CP}$ , and +- $t_{data}$ . + +The value of EVM window length $W$ is obtained from tables 6.5.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, 6.5.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS and the transmission bandwidth. + +The BS shall transmit a signal according to the test models intended for EVM. The demodulation reference signal of the second ideal signal shall be used to find the centre of the FFT window. + +The timing of the measured signal is determined in the pre-FFT domain as follows, using $t_{CP}$ and $t_{data}$ : + +1. The measured signal is delay spread by the TX filter. Hence the distinct borders between the OFDM symbols and between data and CP are also spread and the timing is not obvious. +2. In the ideal signal $t_{CP}$ , the timing is known. + +Correlation between bullet (1) and (2) will result in a correlation peak. The meaning of the correlation peak is approximately the "impulse response" of the TX filter. + +3. The meaning of "impulse response" assumes that the autocorrelation of the ideal signal $t_{CP}$ is a Dirac peak and that the correlation between the ideal signal $t_{data}$ and the data in the measured signal is 0. The correlation peak, (the highest, or in case of more than one highest, the earliest) indicates the timing in the measured signal. + +The number of samples used for FFT is reduced compared to $N_{FFT}$ . This subset of samples is called $N_{FFT,red}$ . + +From the acquired samples one timing can be derived. + +The timing of the centre $t_{FFT}$ is determined according to the cyclic prefix length of the OFDM symbols. For normal CP, there are two values for $t_{FFT}$ in a 1 ms period: + +- $t_{FFT} = \text{length of cyclic prefix} / 2$ , +- $t_{FFT} = \text{Longer CP length} - \text{length of cyclic prefix} / 2$ , + +Where the length of cyclic prefix is obtained from table 6.5.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.5.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS, and the longer CP length is obtained from table H.2.4-1. + +As per the example values: + +- $t_{FFT} = 144$ within the CP of length 288 for OFDM symbols 1 to 13 of a slot, +- $t_{FFT} = 208 (= 352 - 144)$ within the CP of length 352 for OFDM symbol 0 of a slot. + +## H.5 Resource element TX power + +Perform FFT on $s_{measured}$ with the FFT window timing $t_{FFT}$ . The result is called $S_{FFT}$ . The RE TX power (RETP) is then defined as: + +Where SCS is the subcarrier spacing in Hz. + +From RETP the OFDM Symbol TX power (OSTP) is derived as follows: + +Where the summation accumulates RETP values of all $N_{sym}$ OFDM symbols that carry PDSCH and not containing PDCCH, RS or SSB within a slot. + +From the acquired samples, values for each OSTP can be obtained and averaged where $N$ is the number of slots in a 10 ms measurement interval for FDD. For TDD, $N$ is the number of slots with downlink symbols in a 10 ms measurement interval and is computed according to the values in table 4.9.2.2-1. + +For the example used in the annex, $N = 10$ . + +## H.6 Post-FFT equalisation + +Perform FFTs on $s$ , one for each OFDM symbol within 10 ms measurement interval with the FFT window timing to produce an array of samples, $s_f$ in the time axis $t$ by *FFT size* in the frequency axis $f$ . + +For the example in the annex, 280 FFTs are performed on $s$ . The result is an array of samples, 280 in the time axis by 4096 in the frequency axis. + +The equalizer coefficients $\hat{h}_f$ and $\hat{p}_f$ are determined as follows: + +1. Calculate the complex ratios (amplitude and phase) of the post-FFT acquired signal and the post-FFT ideal signal for each demodulation reference signal, over 10 ms measurement interval. This process creates a set of complex ratios: +2. Perform time averaging at each demodulation reference signal subcarrier of the complex ratios, the time-averaging length is 10 ms measurement interval. Prior to the averaging of the phases an unwrap operation must be performed according to the following definition: + - The unwrap operation corrects the radian phase angles of $\hat{p}_f$ by adding multiples of $2 * \pi$ when absolute phase jumps between consecutive time instances are greater than or equal to the jump tolerance of $\pi$ radians. + - This process creates an average amplitude and phase for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier (i.e. every second subcarrier). + +and + +Where $N$ is the number of demodulation reference signals time-domain locations from $s$ for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier $f$ . + +3. The equalizer coefficients for amplitude and phase $\hat{h}_f$ and $\hat{p}_f$ at the demodulation reference signal subcarriers are obtained by computing the moving average in the frequency domain of the time-averaged demodulation reference signal subcarriers. The moving average window size is 19 and averaging is over the DM-RS subcarriers in the allocated RBs. For DM-RS subcarriers at or near the edge of the channel, or when the number of available DM-RS subcarriers within a set of contiguously allocated RBs is smaller than the moving average window size, the window size is reduced accordingly as per figure H.6-1. +4.

The $n_s$ is compared with the $n_{sp}$ and $n_{sf}$ entries corresponding to $n_e$ in table I.1.1-1. If $n_s$ is greater than the $n_{sp}$ value in I.1.1-1, a pass may be declared. If $n_s$ is lower than the $n_{sf}$ value, a fail may be declared. Otherwise, the test continues. + +The objective of the approach is to minimize testing time and the basis of the approach is an early termination statistical framework described in clause I.1.3.1. The minimum testing time is defined by the possible decision coordinates detailed in clause I.1.2. + +As with all statistical tests, there is a non-zero risk of the test result being incorrect due to statistical variations. There are two possibilities for an incorrect decision: + +- As BS, whose BLER is greater than the requirement (i.e., the BS does not comply to the requirement), is declared to pass the test. +- A BS, whose BLER is lower than the requirement (i.e., a BS that does comply to the requirement), is declared to fail the test. + +The outcome of the statistical test is a decision.

The outcome of the statistical test is a decision. This decision may be correct, i.e., BSs whose BLER is greater than 0.001% being declared to fail, and BSs whose BLER is smaller or equal to 0.001% being declared to pass, or in-correct (as detailed above). The Confidence Level (CL) describes the probability that the decision is a correct one. The complement is the wrong decision probability (risk) $D = 1 - CL$ . + +When testing BLER, transport blocks or "samples" are observed and the numbers of correctly and erroneously received blocks are recorded. For a "standard" test, a pre-defined number of samples are observed, and a pass/fail decision is made based on the number of observed errors being above/below a threshold. This threshold is based on the targeted BLER and the design target CL. There is always some risk of a statistical variation leading to an incorrect pass/fail decision. The greater the number of samples that are recorded, the lower is the risk of such an error. The number of samples that are observed in a standard test is dimensioned to achieve an acceptable low risk of error (i.e., an acceptable high confidence level) for BS that just meet the BLER limit. + +The standard test works well where the BLER level is relatively high and confidence level relatively low (both are chosen to be on a comparable order of magnitude). However, for ultra-low BLER testing the length of time required for observing sufficient samples to achieve a 99.999% confidence level is excessive. In many cases, the BS will in fact have a much lower true BLER than the limit, i.e., design target of the test, (in which case, the number of samples needed to achieve high confidence that the BLER is lower than the limit is much smaller) or, if failing the requirement will have a much higher true BLER (in which case, errors occur more frequently and it can be demonstrated that the BS is above the BLER limit with fewer samples). + +To avoid long test times, an alternative test method called early pass/fail is adopted. With the early pass/fail, each time a block error is encountered, a decision is made on whether the BS can be passed/failed with 99.999% CL or the test needs to continue until another error is encountered. In the case of very good BSs, the test can also be passed, when the number of samples permissible for one error event is reached and no error event is recorded. Pass/Fail is decided based on the total number of observed samples and errors, and a statistical calculation based on an inverse binomial cumulative distribution. The calculation involves one parameter, one variable and the result: + +- Parameter: $d$ (per step decision probability). +- Variable: $n_e$ (number of observed errors). +- Result: $n_s$ (number of expected samples for pass/fail, depending on which one is calculated). + +The per step decision probability risk, $d$ , expresses the probability of making an incorrect pass/fail decision in the current step (i.e., for the current decision coordinate). $d$ is determined by simulation such that the overall risk of making a wrong decision over all steps of each test of a large number of tests on a large number of BSs that exactly meet the BLER limit is $D=0.001\%$ (and hence the CL 99.999%). + +It should be noted that $d$ is determined separately considering early pass and early fail testing. + +For a marginal BS (i.e., a BS almost exactly meeting the BLER), the unmodified early pass/early fail approach is unable to distinguish whether the BS has just passed or just failed the BLER ( $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$ ), and can thus terminate with an "undecided" result. To avoid this undecided result and provide selectivity, a so-called "bad device factor" ( $M$ ) is introduced into the early pass calculation. This factor biases the decision towards avoiding failing good BS. + +### I.1.3.2 Simulation to derive the pass-fail limits for testing PUSCH 0.001% BLER + +There is freedom to design the decision co-ordinates (ne, ns), as captured in clause I.1.2. + +The binomial distribution and its inverse are used to design the pass and fail limits. Note that this method is not unique and that other methods exist. + +$$\text{fail}(ne, d_f) := \frac{ne}{ns_f} = \frac{ne}{(ne + \text{qnbinom}(d_f, ne, ER))}$$ + +$$\text{pass}(ne, cl_p, M) := \frac{ne}{ns_p} = \frac{ne}{(ne + \text{qnbinom}(cl_p, ne, ER \cdot M))}$$ + +Where + +- $\text{fail}(\dots)$ is the error ratio for the fail limit. +- $\text{pass}(\dots)$ is the error ratio for the pass limit. +- ER is the specified error ratio $1e-5$ . +- ne is the number of bad results. This is the variable in both equations. +- M is the Bad DUT factor $M=1.5$ . +- $d_f$ is the wrong decision probability of a single (ne, ns) co-ordinate for the fail limit. It is found by simulation to be $d_f = 2e-7$ . +- $cl_p$ is the confidence level of a single (ne, ns) co-ordinate for the pass limit. It is found by simulation to be $cl_p = 0.9999999$ . +- $\text{qnbinom}(\dots)$ : The inverse cumulative function of the negative binomial distribution. + +The simulation works as follows: + +- A large population of limit DUTs with true ER = $1e-5$ is decided against the pass and fail limits. +- $cl_p$ and $d_f$ are tuned such that CL (99.999 %) of the population passes and D (0.001 %) of the population fails. +- A population of Bad DUTs with true ER = $M \cdot 1e-5$ is decided against the same pass and fail limits. +- $cl_p$ and $d_f$ are tuned such that CL (99.999 %) of the population fails and D (0.001 %) of the population passes. +- The number of DUTs decrease during the simulation, as the decided DUTs leave the population. That number decreases with an approximately exponential characteristics. After 642 bad results all DUTs of the population are decided. + +NOTE: The exponential decrease of the population is an optimal design goal for the decision co-ordinates (ne, ns), which can be achieved with other formulas or methods as well. + +## Annex J (informative): Change history + +| Change history | | | | | | | | +|----------------|--------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----|------|-----|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------| +| Date | Meeting | TDoc | CR | Re v | Cat | Subject/Comment | New version | +| 2017-11 | RAN4#84 bis | R4-1711982 | - | - | - | TS skeleton | 0.0.1 | +| 2018-04 | RAN4#86 bis | R4-1803913 | - | - | - | R4-1803410 Draft CR to TS 38.141-1: Addition of applicability table in clause 4.7

Hence the system should be calibrated in all tested directions, frequencies and temperatures if necessary. + +NOTE: Currently only a single direction is specified for extreme testing so a single calibration direction is sufficient. + +Conformance may be demonstrated by measuring the difference between the nominal measurement and the extreme measurement ( $\Delta_{\text{sample}}$ ) or by measuring $P_{\text{max,c,EIRP, extreme}}$ directly. + +Measure EIRP for any two orthogonal polarizations (denoted p1 and p2) and calculate total radiated transmit power for particular *beam direction pair* as $\text{EIRP} = \text{EIRP}_{\text{p1}} + \text{EIRP}_{\text{p2}}$ . + +### B.7.2 Relative method + +The IAB under test is placed inside a small (compared to a far field chamber) anechoic chamber which is both RF a screened and suitable for environmental conditioning. The RF conditions inside the chamber are absorptive and capable of dissipating the power of the IAB when radiating. A sample antenna or RF probe are placed in a location which gives a sample of the main beam EIRP but does not have to accurately measure the EIRP directly, instead the near-field response is measured. For this method test components are exposed to the full temperature range for example the test antenna/probe, cables, absorbers etc. may change as a function of temperature. + +Using the relative method it is also necessary to measure the EIRP under nominal conditions using an appropriately calibrated far field (or near field) test range to obtain $P_{\max,c,EIRP}$ . + +![Diagram of the measurement setup for extreme conditions for EIRP accuracy using the difference method.

When the TT value is zero, the test requirement will be the same as the minimum requirement. When the TT value is non-zero, the test requirements will differ from the minimum requirements, and the formula used for this relaxation is given in the following tables. + +The $TT_{OTA}$ values are derived from OTA Test System uncertainties, regulatory requirements and criticality to system performance. As a result, the $TT_{OTA}$ values may sometimes be set to zero. + +The $TT_{OTA}$ values should not be modified for any reason e.g. to take account of commonly known OTA Test System errors (such as mismatch, cable loss, etc.). + +Note that a formula for applying $TT_{OTA}$ values is provided for all OTA tests, even those with a test tolerance of zero. This is necessary in the case where the OTA Test System uncertainty is greater than that allowed in clause 4.1.2. In this event, the excess error shall be subtracted from the defined $TT_{OTA}$ value in order to generate the correct tightened test requirements as defined in this annex. + +--- + +## C.1 Measurement of transmitter + +**Table C.1-1: Derivation of test requirements (FR1 OTA transmitter tests)** + +| Test | Minimum requirement in TS 38.174 [2] | Test Tolerance (TT OTA ) | Test requirement in the present document | +|------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------| +| 6.2 Radiated transmit power | See TS 38.174 [2], clause 9.2 | Normal conditions:

This is done simply by rounding the tap delays to the nearest multiple of the delay resolution. + +Step 5: If multiple taps are rounded to the same delay bin, merge them by calculating their linear power sum. + +Step 6: If there are more than 12 taps in the quantized model, merge the taps as follows: + +- Find the weakest tap from all taps (both merged and unmerged taps are considered) +- If there are two or more taps having the same value and are the weakest, select the tap with the smallest delay as the weakest tap. +- When the weakest tap is the first delay tap, merge taps as follows: + - Update the power of the first delay tap as the linear power sum of the weakest tap and the second delay tap. + - Remove the second delay tap. +- When the weakest tap is the last delay tap, merge taps as follows: + - Update the power of the last delay tap as the linear power sum of the second-to-last tap and the last tap. + - Remove the second-to-last tap. +- Otherwise: + - For each side of the weakest tap, identify the neighbour tap that has the smaller delay difference to the weakest tap. + - When the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on one side equals the delay difference between the weakest tap and the identified neighbour tap on the other side. + - Select the neighbour tap that is weaker in power for merging. + - Otherwise, select the neighbour tap that has smaller delay difference for merging. + - To merge, the power of the merged tap is the linear sum of the power of the weakest tap and the selected tap. + - When the selected tap is the first tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the first tap. The weakest tap is removed. + - When the selected tap is the last tap, the location of the merged tap is the location of the last tap. The weakest tap is removed. + - Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is based on the average delay of the weakest tap and selected tap. If the average delay is on the sampling grid, the location of the merged tap is the average delay. Otherwise, the location of the merged tap is rounded towards the direction of the selected tap (e.g. 10 ns & 20 ns → 15 ns, 10 ns & 25 ns → 20 ns, if 25 ns had higher or equal power; 15 ns, if 10 ns had higher power).

This method measures the relative noise change extracted from when the test object is operating and when the power is disconnected. From the two measured noise levels the relative noise change can be determined.

Best fit (minimum difference) is achieved when the RMS difference value between and is an absolute minimum. + +The carrier frequency variation is the measurement result: carrier frequency error. + +From the acquired samples, one value of carrier frequency error can be derived. + +NOTE 1: The minimisation process, to derive the RF error can be supported by post-FFT operations. However the minimisation process defined in the pre-FFT domain comprises all acquired samples (i.e. it does not exclude the samples in-between the FFT widths and it does not exclude the bandwidth outside the transmission bandwidth configuration). + +NOTE 2: The algorithm would allow to derive carrier frequency error and sample frequency error of the TX under test separately. However there are no requirements for sample frequency error. Hence the algorithm models the RF and the sample frequency commonly (not independently). It returns one error and does not distinguish between both. + +After this process the samples are called . + +## M.4 Timing of the FFT window + +The FFT window length is *FFT size* samples per OFDM symbol. For TDD, the number of FFTs performed is the number of uplink symbols in the measurement interval. + +The position in time for the FFT shall be determined. + +In an ideal signal, the FFT may start at any instant within the cyclic prefix without causing an error. The TX filter, however, reduces the window. The EVM requirements shall be met within a window $W < CP$ . There are three different instants for FFT: + +- Centre of the reduced window, called , + +- , and +- . + +The value of EVM window length $W$ is obtained from the transmission bandwidth and TS 38.176-1 [3] table 6.5.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.5.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS for FR1, and table 6.6.3.5.2-2 for 60 kHz SCS, and table 6.6.3.5.2-3 for 120 kHz SCS for FR2-1. + +The IAB-MT shall transmit a signal according to the test models intended for EVM. The demodulation reference signal of the second ideal signal shall be used to find the centre of the FFT window. + +The timing of the measured signal is determined in the pre FFT domain as follows, using $\Delta$ and $\Delta_{CP}$ : + +1. The measured signal is delay spread by the TX filter. Hence the distinct borders between the OFDM symbols and between data and CP are also spread and the timing is not obvious. +2. In the ideal signal $\Delta$ , the timing is known. +Correlation between bullet (1) and (2) will result in a correlation peak. The meaning of the correlation peak is approximately the "impulse response" of the TX filter. +3. The meaning of "impulse response" assumes that the autocorrelation of the ideal signal $\Delta$ is a Dirac peak and that the correlation between the ideal signal $\Delta$ and the data in the measured signal is 0. The correlation peak, (the highest, or in case of more than one highest, the earliest) indicates the timing in the measured signal. + +The number of samples, used for FFT is reduced compared to $N_{sym}$ . This subset of samples is called $N_{FFT}$ . + +From the acquired samples one timing can be derived. + +The timing of the centre $\Delta$ is determined according to the cyclic prefix length of the OFDM symbols. For normal CP, there are two values for $\Delta$ in a 1 ms period: + +- $\Delta = \text{length of cyclic prefix} / 2$ , +- $\Delta = \text{Longer CP length} - \text{length of cyclic prefix} / 2$ , + +Where the length of cyclic prefix is obtained from TS 38.176-1 [3] table 6.5.3.5-2 for 15 kHz SCS, table 6.5.3.5-3 for 30 kHz SCS and table 6.5.3.5-4 for 60 kHz SCS for FR1, and table 6.6.3.5.2-2 for 60 kHz SCS, and table 6.6.3.5.2-3 for 120 kHz SCS for FR2-1, and the longer CP length is obtained from table M.2.4-1. + +As per the example values. + +- $\Delta$ within the CP of length 288 for most OFDM symbols in 1 ms, +- $\Delta (= 544 - 144)$ within the CP of length 544 for OFDM symbol 0 of slot 0 and slot 4. + +## M.5 Resource element TX power + +Perform FFT on $\Delta$ with the FFT window timing $\Delta$ . + +The result is called $\Delta$ . The RE TX (RETP) power is then defined as: + +where SCS is the subcarrier spacing in Hz. + +From RETP, the OFDM symbol TX power (OSTP) is derived as follows: + +Where the summation accumulates values of all $N_{sym}$ OFDM symbols that carry PUSCH and not containing PUCCH, SRS or PRACH within a slot. + +For TDD, $N_{\text{slots}}$ is the number of slots with downlink symbols in a 10 ms measurement interval and is computed according to the values in table 4.9.2.2-1. + +For the example used in the annex, $N_{\text{slots}} = 1120$ . + +## M.6 Post-FFT equalisation + +Perform FFTs on $s(t)$ , one for each OFDM symbol within 10 ms measurement interval with the FFT window timing to produce an array of samples, $S(f)$ , in the time axis $t$ by *FFT size* in the frequency axis $f$ . + +For the example in the annex, 1120 FFTs are performed on $s(t)$ . The result is an array of samples, 1120 in the time axis by 4096 in the frequency axis. + +The equalizer coefficients $\hat{h}(f)$ and $\hat{\phi}(f)$ are determined as follows: + +1. Calculate the complex ratios (amplitude and phase) of the post-FFT acquired signal $S(f)$ and the post-FFT ideal signal $S_{\text{ideal}}(f)$ , for each demodulation reference signal, over 10 ms measurement interval. This process creates a set of complex ratios: +2. Perform time averaging at each demodulation reference signal subcarrier of the complex ratios, the time-averaging length is 10 ms measurement interval. Prior to the averaging of the phases an unwrap operation must be performed according to the following definition: + - The unwrap operation corrects the radian phase angles of $\hat{\phi}(f)$ by adding multiples of $2 * \pi$ when absolute phase jumps between consecutive time instances are greater than or equal to the jump tolerance of $\pi$ radians. + - This process creates an average amplitude and phase for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier (i.e. every second subcarrier). + +Where $N$ is the number of demodulation reference signal time-domain locations from $s(t)$ for each demodulation reference signal subcarrier $f$ . + +3. The equalizer coefficients for amplitude $\hat{h}(f)$ and phase $\hat{\phi}(f)$ at the demodulation reference signal subcarriers are obtained by computing the moving average in the frequency domain of the time-averaged demodulation reference signal subcarriers. The moving average window size is 19 and averaging is over the DM-RS subcarriers in the allocated RBs. For DM-RS subcarriers at or near the edge of the channel, or when the number of available DM-RS subcarriers within a set of contiguously allocated RBs is smaller than the moving average window size, the window size is reduced accordingly as per figure M.6-1. +4. Perform linear interpolation from the equalizer coefficients $\hat{h}(f)$ and $\hat{\phi}(f)$ to compute coefficients $\tilde{h}(f)$ and $\tilde{\phi}(f)$ , for each subcarrier. + +![Figure M.6-1: Reference subcarrier smoothing in the frequency domain.

After encoding the bits are denoted by $u$ , where $u$ for LDPC base graph 1 and $u$ for LDPC base graph 2, and the value of $u$ is given in Clause 5.2.2. + +For a code block encoded by LDPC, the following encoding procedure applies: + +- 1) Find the set with index $l$ in Table 5.3.2-1 which contains $u$ . +- 2) for $i$ to $u-1$ + - if $u_i = 0$ + - $u_i = 0$ ; + - else + - $u_i = 1$ ; + - end if +- 3) Generate parity bits $p$ such that $Hp^T = 0$ , where $H$ is a column vector of all elements equal to 0. The encoding is performed in GF(2). + +For LDPC base graph 1, a matrix $H$ of $u$ has 46 rows with row indices $0$ to $45$ and 68 columns with column indices $0$ to $67$ . For LDPC base graph 2, a matrix $H$ of $u$ has 42 rows with row indices $0$ to $41$ and 52 columns with column indices $0$ to $51$ . The elements in $H$ with row and column indices given in Table 5.3.2-2 (for LDPC base graph 1) and Table 5.3.2-3 (for LDPC base graph 2) are of value 1, and all other elements in $H$ are of value 0. + +The matrix $H$ is obtained by replacing each element of $H$ with a matrix, according to the following: + +- Each element of value 0 in $H$ is replaced by an all zero matrix of size $Z_l$ ; +- Each element of value 1 in $H$ is replaced by a circular permutation matrix of size $Z_l$ , where $i$ and $j$ are the row and column indices of the element, and $P$ is obtained by circularly shifting the identity matrix of size $Z_l$ to the right $i-j$ times. The value of $Z_l$ is given by $l$ .

The UE assumes that SSS, PBCH DM-RS, and PBCH data have same EPRE. The UE may assume that the ratio of PSS EPRE to SSS EPRE in a SS/PBCH block is either 0 dB or 3 dB. If the UE has not been provided dedicated higher layer parameters, the UE may assume that the ratio of PDCCH DMRS EPRE to SSS EPRE is within -8 dB and 8 dB when the UE monitors PDCCHs for a DCI format 1\_0 with CRC scrambled by SI-RNTI, P-RNTI, or RA-RNTI, or for a DCI format 2\_7, or for a DCI format 4\_0. + +For a half frame with SS/PBCH blocks, the first symbol indexes for candidate SS/PBCH blocks are determined according to the SCS of SS/PBCH blocks as follows, where index 0 corresponds to the first symbol of the first slot in a half-frame. + +- Case A - 15 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes of . + - For operation without shared spectrum channel access: + - For carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 3 GHz, . + - For carrier frequencies within FR1 larger than 3 GHz, . + - For operation with shared spectrum channel access, as described in [15, TS 37.213], . +- Case B - 30 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes . For carrier frequencies smaller than or equal to 3 GHz, .

For carrier frequencies within FR2-2, . +- Case G - 960 kHz SCS: the first symbols of the candidate SS/PBCH blocks have indexes . For carrier frequencies within FR2-2, . + +From the above cases, if the SCS of SS/PBCH blocks is not provided by *ssbSubcarrierSpacing*, the applicable cases for a cell depend on a respective frequency band, as provided in [8-1, TS 38.101-1] and [8-2, TS 38.101-2]. A same case applies for all SS/PBCH blocks on the cell. If a 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS is indicated by *ssbSubcarrierSpacing*, Case B applies for frequency bands with only 15 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS as specified in [8-1, TS 38.101-1], and the case specified for 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS in [8-1, TS 38.101-1] applies for frequency bands with 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS or both 15 kHz and 30 kHz SS/PBCH block SCS as specified in [8-1, TS 38.101-1]. For a UE configured to operate with carrier aggregation over a set of cells in a frequency band of FR2 or with frequency-contiguous carrier aggregation over a set of cells in a frequency band of FR1, if the UE is provided SCS values by *ssbSubcarrierSpacing* for receptions of SS/PBCH blocks on any cells from the set of cells, the UE expects the SCS values to be same. + +The candidate SS/PBCH blocks in a half frame are indexed in an ascending order in time from 0 to $L-1$ , where $L$ is determined according to SS/PBCH block patterns for Cases A through G. $L$ is a maximum number of SS/PBCH block indexes in a cell, and the maximum number of transmitted SS/PBCH blocks within a half frame is $L$ . + +- For operation without shared spectrum channel access in FR1 and FR2, and for operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR2-2, +- For operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR1, for 15 kHz SCS of SS/PBCH blocks and for 30 kHz SCS of SS/PBCH blocks + +For $L > 4$ , a UE determines the 2 LSB bits of a candidate SS/PBCH block index per half frame from a one-to-one mapping with an index of the DM-RS sequence transmitted in the PBCH as described in [4, TS 38.211]. + +For $L > 8$ , a UE determines the 3 LSB bits of a candidate SS/PBCH block index per half frame from a one-to-one mapping with an index of the DM-RS sequence transmitted in the PBCH as described in [4, TS 38.211] + +- for $L > 4$ , the UE determines the 1 MSB bit of the candidate SS/PBCH block index from PBCH payload bit $b_0$ as described in [5, TS 38.212] +- for $L > 8$ , the UE determines the 2 MSB bits of the candidate SS/PBCH block index from PBCH payload bits $b_0$ and $b_1$ as described in [5, TS 38.212] +- for $L > 16$ , the UE determines the 3 MSB bits of the candidate SS/PBCH block index from PBCH payload bits $b_0$ , $b_1$ and $b_2$ as described in [5, TS 38.212] + +A UE can be provided per serving cell by *ssb-periodicityServingCell* a periodicity of the half frames for reception of the SS/PBCH blocks for the serving cell. If the UE is not configured a periodicity of the half frames for receptions of the SS/PBCH blocks, the UE assumes a periodicity of a half frame. A UE assumes that the periodicity is same for all SS/PBCH blocks in the serving cell. + +For initial cell selection, a UE may assume that half frames with SS/PBCH blocks occur with a periodicity of 2 frames. + +For operation without shared spectrum channel access, an SS/PBCH block index is same as a candidate SS/PBCH block index. + +For operation with shared spectrum channel access, a UE assumes that transmission of SS/PBCH blocks in a half frame is within a discovery burst transmission window that starts from the first symbol of the first slot in a half-frame. The UE can be provided per serving cell by *discoveryBurstWindowLength* a duration of the discovery burst transmission window. If *discoveryBurstWindowLength* is not provided, the UE assumes that the duration of the discovery burst transmission window is a half frame. For a serving cell, the UE assumes that a periodicity of the discovery burst transmission window is same as a periodicity of half frames for receptions of SS/PBCH blocks in the serving cell. The UE assumes that one or more SS/PBCH blocks indicated by *ssb-PositionsInBurst* may be transmitted within the discovery burst transmission window and have candidate SS/PBCH blocks indexes corresponding to SS/PBCH block indexes provided by *ssb-PositionsInBurst*. If MSB $b_0$ of *ssb-PositionsInBurst* is set to 1, the UE assumes that SS/PBCH block(s) within the discovery burst transmission window with candidate SS/PBCH block index(es) corresponding to SS/PBCH block index equal to $i$ may be transmitted; if MSB $b_0$ is set to 0, the UE assumes that the SS/PBCH block(s) are not transmitted. If MSB $b_0$ of *inOneGroup* is set to 1, and MSB $b_0$ of *groupPresence* is set to 1, the UE assumes that SS/PBCH block(s) within the discovery burst transmission window with candidate SS/PBCH block index(es) corresponding to SS/PBCH block index determined by $i$ and $j$ may be transmitted; otherwise, the UE assumes that the SS/PBCH block(s) are not transmitted. + +For operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR1, a UE assumes that SS/PBCH blocks in a serving cell that are within a same discovery burst transmission window or across discovery burst transmission windows are quasi co-located with respect to average gain, quasi co-location 'typeA' and 'typeD' properties, when applicable [6, TS 38.214], if a value of $\Delta$ is same among the SS/PBCH blocks. $\Delta$ is an index of a DM-RS sequence transmitted in a PBCH of a corresponding SS/PBCH block, and $\Delta$ is either provided by *ssb-PositionQCL* or, if *ssb-PositionQCL* is not provided, obtained from a *MIB* provided by a SS/PBCH block according to Table 4.1-1 with $\Delta$ [4, TS 38.211]. The UE can determine an SS/PBCH block index according to $\Delta$ , or according to $\Delta$ where $\Delta$ is the candidate SS/PBCH block index. The UE assumes that within a discovery burst transmission window, a number of transmitted SS/PBCH blocks on a serving cell is not larger than $\Delta$ and a number of transmitted SS/PBCH blocks with a same SS/PBCH block index is not larger than one. + +**Table 4.1-1: Mapping between the combination of *subCarrierSpacingCommon* and LSB of *ssb-SubcarrierOffset* to $\Delta$ for operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR1** + +| subCarrierSpacingCommon | LSB of ssb-SubcarrierOffset | $\Delta$ | +|--------------------------------|------------------------------------|----------| +| scs15or60 | 0 | 1 | +| scs15or60 | 1 | 2 | +| scs30or120 | 0 | 4 | +| scs30or120 | 1 | 8 | + +For operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR2-2, a UE assumes that SS/PBCH blocks in a serving cell that are within a same discovery burst transmission window or across discovery burst transmission windows are quasi co-located with respect to average gain, quasi co-location 'typeA' and 'typeD' properties, when applicable, if a value of $\Delta$ is same among the SS/PBCH blocks, where $\Delta$ is the candidate SS/PBCH block index. $\Delta$ is either provided by *ssb-PositionQCL* or, if *ssb-PositionQCL* is not provided, obtained from a *MIB* provided by a SS/PBCH block according to Table 4.1-2. The UE can determine an SS/PBCH block index according to $\Delta$ .

The UE determines from *MIB* that a CORESET for Type0-PDCCH CSS set is not present if $\Delta$ for FR1 or if $\Delta$ for FR2; the CORESET for Type0-PDCCH CSS set may be provided by *PDCCH-ConfigCommon*. + +For a serving cell without transmission of SS/PBCH blocks, a UE acquires time and frequency synchronization with the serving cell based on receptions of SS/PBCH blocks on the PCell, or on the PSCell, or on an SCell if applicable as described in [10, TS 38.133], of the cell group for the serving cell. + +## 4.2 Transmission timing adjustments + +A UE can be provided a value of a timing advance offset for a serving cell by *n-TimingAdvanceOffset* for the serving cell. If for a serving cell the UE is provided two *coresetPoolIndex* values 0 and 1 for first and second CORESETs, or is not provided *coresetPoolIndex* value for first CORESETs and is provided *coresetPoolIndex* value of 1 for second CORESETs, the UE can be provided first and second values by *n-TimingAdvanceOffset* and *n-TimingAdvanceOffset2* for transmissions with first and second spatial filters associated with first and second TCI states for the first and second CORESETs, respectively. A UE can be provided a second value for transmissions with second spatial domain filters corresponding to second TCI states or to second SS/PBCH block receptions associated with *physCellId* different from *physCellId* for the serving cell in addition to a first value for transmissions with first spatial domain filters corresponding to first TCI states or to first SS/PBCH block receptions associated with *physCellId* for the serving cell. The first and second values correspond to first and second TAGs indicated in respective MAC RARs [11, TS 38.321] having an association indicated by *tag-Id-ptr* with first and second joint TCI states provided by *dl-OrJointTCI-StateList*. + +or first and second UL TCI states provided by *ul-TCI-State-List*. If the UE is not provided *n-TimingAdvanceOffset* for a serving cell, the UE determines a default value of the timing advance offset for the serving cell as described in [10, TS 38.133]. + +If a UE is configured with two UL carriers for a serving cell, a same timing advance offset value applies to both carriers for transmissions on the serving cell that are associated with a same TAG. The UE does not expect to apply two values for transmissions on the SUL carrier. + +Upon reception of a timing advance command for a TAG, the UE adjusts uplink timing for PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH transmission on all the serving cells in the TAG based on a value that the UE expects to be same for all the serving cells in the TAG and based on the received timing advance command where the uplink timing for PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH transmissions is the same for all the serving cells in the TAG. + +For a band with synchronous contiguous intra-band EN-DC in a band combination with non-applicable maximum transmit timing difference requirements as described in Note 1 of Table 7.5.3-1 of [10, TS 38.133], if the UE indicates *ul-TimingAlignmentEUTRA-NR* as 'required' and uplink transmission timing based on timing adjustment indication for a TAG from MCG and a TAG from SCG are determined to be different by the UE, the UE adjusts the transmission timing for PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH transmission on all serving cells part of the band with the synchronous contiguous intra-band EN-DC based on timing adjustment indication for a TAG from a serving cell in MCG in the band. The UE is not expected to transmit a PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH in one CG when the PUSCH/SRS/PUCCH is overlapping in time, even partially, with random access preamble transmitted in another CG. + +For a SCS of kHz, the timing advance command for a TAG indicates the change of the uplink timing relative to the current uplink timing for the TAG in multiples of . The start timing of the random access preamble is described in [4, TS 38.211]. + +A timing advance command [11, TS 38.321] in case of random access response or in an absolute timing advance command MAC CE or in a cell switch command, , for a TAG indicates values by index values of $= 0, 1, 2, \dots, 3846$ , where an amount of the time alignment for the TAG with SCS of kHz is . is defined in [4, TS 38.211] and is relative to the SCS of the first uplink transmission from the UE after the reception of the random access response or absolute timing advance command MAC CE or the cell switch command. + +In other cases, a timing advance command [11, TS 38.321], , for a TAG indicates adjustment of a current value, , to the new value, , by index values of $= 0, 1, 2, \dots, 63$ , where for a SCS of kHz, . + +If a UE has multiple active UL BWPs, as described in clause 12, in a same TAG, including UL BWPs in two UL carriers of a serving cell, the timing advance command value is relative to the largest SCS of the multiple active UL BWPs. The applicable value for an UL BWP with lower SCS may be rounded to align with the timing advance granularity for the UL BWP with the lower SCS while satisfying the timing advance accuracy requirements in [10, TS 38.133]. + +Adjustment of an value by a positive or a negative amount indicates advancing or delaying the uplink transmission timing for the TAG by a corresponding amount, respectively. + +For a timing advance command received on uplink slot and for a transmission other than a PUSCH scheduled by a RAR UL grant or a fallbackRAR UL grant as described in clause 8.2A or 8.3, or a PUCCH with HARQ-ACK information in response to a successRAR as described in clause 8.2A, the corresponding adjustment of the uplink transmission timing applies from the beginning of uplink slot where , is a time duration in msec of symbols corresponding to a PDSCH processing time for UE processing capability 1 when additional PDSCH DM-RS is configured, is a time duration in msec of symbols corresponding to a PUSCH preparation time for UE processing capability 1 [6, TS 38.214], is the maximum timing advance value in msec that can be provided by a TA command field of 12 bits, is the number of slots per subframe, is the subframe duration of 1 msec, and , where is provided by *cellSpecificKoffset* and is provided by a Differential Koffset MAC CE command [11, TS 38.321]; otherwise, if not respectively provided, or and are determined with respect to the minimum SCS among the SCSs of all configured UL BWPs for all uplink carriers in the TAG and of all configured DL BWPs for the corresponding downlink carriers. For , the UE assumes [6, TS 38.214]. Slot and are determined with respect to the minimum SCS among the SCSs of all configured UL BWPs for all uplink carriers in the TAG. is determined with respect to the minimum SCS among the SCSs of all configured UL BWPs for all uplink carriers in the TAG and for all configured initial UL BWPs provided by *initialUplinkBWP*. The uplink slot is the last slot among uplink slot(s) overlapping with the slot(s) of PDSCH reception assuming , where the PDSCH provides the timing advance command and is defined in [4, TS 38.211]. + +If a UE changes an active UL BWP between a time of a timing advance command reception and a time of applying a corresponding adjustment for the uplink transmission timing, the UE determines the timing advance command value based on the SCS of the new active UL BWP. If the UE changes an active UL BWP after applying an adjustment for + +the uplink transmission timing, the UE assumes a same absolute timing advance command value before and after the active UL BWP change. + +If the received downlink timing changes and is not compensated or is only partly compensated by the uplink timing adjustment without timing advance command as described in [10, TS 38.133], the UE changes accordingly. If a UE operates with two TAGs on an active UL BWP of a serving cell, the UE expects that a difference between a first downlink timing associated with a first TAG and a second downlink timing associated with a second TAG is not larger than the CP length for the active UL BWP unless the UE indicates *larger-thanCP-capability*. If a UE indicates *XYZ\_capability*, and transmits SRS based on a configuration by *SRS-PosResourceSet* in *SRS-PosRRC-InactiveConfig-ValidityArea* in RRC\_INACTIVE state, + +- if the UE is provided *SRS-autonomousTAupdate*, the UE may autonomously update at cell reselection as described in [10, TS 38.133] +- if the UE is not provided *SRS-autonomousTAupdate*, the UE maintains the of a last serving cell prior to the release of a dedicated RRC connection [11, TS 38.321]. + +For operation with single TAG on a serving cell, if two adjacent slots overlap due to a TA command or due to update of or , when applicable, the latter slot is reduced in duration relative to the former slot. The UE does not change during an actual transmission time window for a PUSCH or a PUCCH transmission [6, TS 38.214]. If the UE is not provided *enableSTx2PofMDCl* and operates with two TAGs on a serving cell, the UE does not expect transmissions associated with different TAGs to overlap unless the UE indicates *XYZ*; if the UE indicates *XYZ*, the UE reduces in duration a latter transmission using a first TAG to avoid overlapping with a former transmission using a second TAG. + +Using higher-layer ephemeris parameters for a serving satellite, if provided, a UE pre-compensates the two-way transmission delay on the service link based on that the UE determines using the serving satellite position and its own position.

For the purpose of SS-RSRP, SS-RSRQ and SS-SINR measurements, the UE may assume downlink EPRE is constant over SSS carried in different SS/PBCH blocks. For the purpose of SS-RSRP, SS-RSRQ and SS-SINR measurements, the UE may assume that the ratio of SSS EPRE to PBCH DM-RS EPRE is 0 dB. + +For the purpose of CSI-RSRP, CSI-RSRQ and CSI-SINR measurements, the UE may assume downlink EPRE of a port of CSI-RS resource configuration is constant across the configured downlink bandwidth and constant across all configured OFDM symbols. + +The downlink SS/PBCH SSS EPRE can be derived from the SS/PBCH downlink transmit power given by the parameter *ss-PBCH-BlockPower* provided by higher layers. The downlink SSS transmit power is defined as the linear average over the power contributions (in [W]) of all resource elements that carry the SSS within the operating system bandwidth. + +The downlink CSI-RS EPRE can be derived from the SS/PBCH block downlink transmit power given by the parameter *ss-PBCH-BlockPower* and CSI-RS power offset given by the parameter *powerControlOffsetSS* provided by higher layers if the SS/PBCH block is associated with serving cell PCI, or derived from *ss-PBCH-BlockPower-r17* in *SSB-MTC-AdditionalPCI-r17* and *powerControlOffsetSS* provided by higher layers if the SS/PBCH block is associated with additional PCI different from serving cell PCI, where the CSI-RS is QCled with the SS/PBCH block. The downlink reference-signal transmit power is defined as the linear average over the power contributions (in [W]) of the resource elements that carry the configured CSI-RS within the operating system bandwidth. + +For downlink DM-RS associated with PDSCH, the UE may assume the ratio of PDSCH EPRE to DM-RS EPRE ( [dB]) is given by Table 4.1-1 according to the number of DM-RS CDM groups without data as described in Clause 5.1.6.2. + +The DM-RS scaling factor $\beta_{PDSCH}^{DMRS}$ specified in Clause 7.4.1.1.2 of [4, TS 38.211] is given by $\beta_{PDSCH}^{DMRS} = 10^{-\frac{\beta_{DMRS}}{20}}$ . + +**Table 4.1-1: The ratio of PDSCH EPRE to DM-RS EPRE** + +| Number of DM-RS CDM groups without data | DM-RS configuration type 1 and enhanced type 1 | DM-RS configuration type 2 and enhanced type 2 | +|-----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------| +| 1 | 0 dB | 0 dB | +| 2 | -3 dB | -3 dB | +| 3 | - | -4.77 dB | + +When the UE is scheduled with one or two PT-RS ports associated with the PDSCH, + +- if the UE is configured with the higher layer parameter *epre-Ratio*, the ratio of PT-RS EPRE to PDSCH EPRE per layer per RE for each PT-RS port ( $\rho_{PTRS}$ ) is given by Table 4.1-2 or Table 4.1-2A according to the *epre-Ratio*, the PT-RS scaling factor $\beta_{PTRS}$ specified in clause 7.4.1.2.2 of [4, TS 38.211] is given by $\beta_{PTRS} = 10^{\frac{\rho_{PTRS}}{20}}$ . +- otherwise, the UE shall assume *epre-Ratio* is set to state '0' in Table 4.1-2 if not configured. + +**Table 4.1-2: PT-RS EPRE to PDSCH EPRE per layer per RE ( $\rho_{PTRS}$ ), if [enhanced-dmrs-Type\_r18] is not configured in DMRS-DownlinkConfig** + +| epre-Ratio | The number of PDSCH layers with DM-RS associated to the PT-RS port | | | | | | +|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|---|------|---|---|------| +| | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | +| 0 | 0 | 3 | 4.77 | 6 | 7 | 7.78 | +| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +| 2 | reserved | | | | | | +| 3 | reserved | | | | | | + +**Table 4.1-2A: PT-RS EPRE to PDSCH EPRE per layer per RE ( $\rho_{PTRS}$ ), if [enhanced-dmrs-Type\_r18] is configured in DMRS-DownlinkConfig** + +| epre-Ratio | The number of PDSCH layers with DM-RS associated to the PT-RS port | | | | | | | | +|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|---|------|---|---|------|------|---| +| | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | +| 0 | 0 | 3 | 4.77 | 6 | 7 | 7.78 | 8.45 | 9 | +| 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | +| 2 | reserved | | | | | | | | +| 3 | reserved | | | | | | | | + +For link recovery, as described in clause 6 of [6, TS 38.213] the ratio of the PDCCH EPRE to NZP CSI-RS EPRE is assumed as 0 dB. + +# 5 Physical downlink shared channel related procedures + +## 5.1 UE procedure for receiving the physical downlink shared channel + +For downlink, a maximum of 16 HARQ processes per cell are supported by the UE, or subject to UE capability, a maximum of 32 HARQ processes per cell as defined in [13, TS 38.306]. The number of processes the UE may assume will at most be used for the downlink is configured to the UE for each cell separately by higher layer parameter *nrofHARQ-ProcessesForPDSCH* or *nrofHARQ-ProcessesForPDSCH-v1700*, and when no configuration is provided the UE may assume a default number of 8 processes. + +A UE shall upon detection of a PDCCH with a configured DCI format 1\_0, 1\_1, 1\_2, 1\_3, 4\_0, 4\_1, or 4\_2 decode the corresponding PDSCHs as indicated by that DCI. When the UE is scheduled with multiple PDSCHs on a serving cell by a DCI, HARQ process ID indicated by this DCI applies to the first PDSCH not overlapping with a UL symbol indicated by *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon* or *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated* if provided, HARQ process ID is then incremented by 1 for each subsequent PDSCH(s) in the scheduled order, with modulo operation of *nrofHARQ-ProcessesForPDSCH* applied if *nrofHARQ-ProcessesForPDSCH* is provided, or with modulo operation of *nrofHARQ-* + +*ProcessesForPDSCH-v1700* applied if or *nrofHARQ-ProcessesForPDSCH-v1700* is provided, or with modulo operation of 8 applied, otherwise. HARQ process ID is not incremented for PDSCH(s) not received if at least one of the symbols indicated by the indexed row of the used resource allocation table in the slot overlaps with a UL symbol indicated by *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon* or *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated* if provided. When a UE is configured by the higher layer parameter *repetitionScheme* set to 'tdmSchemeA', the PDSCH includes two PDSCH transmission occasions. For each PDSCH, if either PDSCH occasion overlaps with a UL symbol indicated by *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationCommon* or *tdd-UL-DL-ConfigurationDedicated* if provided, the PDSCH is not received and HARQ process ID is not incremented for the PDSCH. For any HARQ process ID(s) in a given scheduled cell, the UE is not expected to receive a PDSCH that overlaps in time with another PDSCH if the UE is not capable of receiving FD Med unicast and multicast PDSCH per slot per carrier. When HARQ feedback for the HARQ process ID is not disabled, or for the HARQ process associated with the first SPS PDSCH when *HARQ-feedbackEnablingforSPSactive* is provided and enabled, the UE is not expected to receive another PDSCH for a given HARQ process until after the end of the expected transmission of HARQ-ACK for that HARQ process, where the timing is given by Clause 9.2.3 of [6, TS 38.213]. For HARQ-ACK subject to HARQ-ACK deferral described in Clause 9.2.5.4 of [6, TS 38.213], the expected transmission of HARQ-ACK corresponds to the expected transmission HARQ-ACK in a first slot. When HARQ feedback for the HARQ process ID is disabled, the UE is not expected to receive another PDCCH carrying a DCI scheduling a PDSCH or set of slot-aggregated PDSCH scheduled for the given HARQ process or to receive another PDSCH without corresponding PDCCH for the given HARQ process that starts until $T_{proc,1}$ after the end of the reception of the last PDSCH or slot-aggregated PDSCH for that HARQ process. Except for the case when a UE is configured by higher layer parameter *PDCCH-Config* that contains two different values of *coresetPoolIndex* in *ControlResourceSet* and PDCCHs that schedule two PDSCHs are associated to different *ControlResourceSets* having different values of *coresetPoolIndex*, in a given scheduled cell, the UE is not expected to receive a first PDSCH and a second PDSCH, starting later than the first PDSCH, with its corresponding HARQ-ACK assigned to be transmitted on a resource ending before the start of a different resource for the HARQ-ACK assigned to be transmitted for the first PDSCH, where the two resources are in different slots for the associated HARQ-ACK transmissions, each slot is composed of $N_{sym}^{slot}$ symbols [4] or a number of symbols indicated by *subslotLengthForPUCCH* if provided, and the HARQ-ACK for the two PDSCHs are associated with the HARQ-ACK codebook of the same priority. Except for the case when a UE is configured by higher layer parameter *PDCCH-Config* that contains two different values of *coresetPoolIndex* in *ControlResourceSet* and PDCCHs that schedule two PDSCHs are associated to different *ControlResourceSets* having different values of *coresetPoolIndex*, in a given scheduled cell, the UE is not expected to receive a first PDSCH, and a second PDSCH, starting later than the first PDSCH, with its corresponding HARQ-ACK assigned to be transmitted on a resource ending before the start of a different resource for the HARQ-ACK assigned to be transmitted for the first PDSCH if the HARQ-ACK for the two PDSCHs are associated with HARQ-ACK codebooks of different priorities. For any two HARQ process IDs in a given scheduled cell, if the UE is scheduled to start receiving a first PDSCH starting in symbol $j$ by a PDCCH ending in symbol $i$ on a scheduling cell, the UE is not expected to be scheduled to receive a PDSCH starting earlier than the end of the first PDSCH with a PDCCH that ends later than symbol $i$ of a scheduling cell. When the PDCCH reception includes two PDCCH candidates from two respective search space sets, as described in clause 10.1 of [6, TS 38.213], the PDCCH ending in symbol $i$ is determined based on the PDCCH candidate that ends later in time. In a given scheduled cell, for any PDSCH corresponding to SI-RNTI, the UE is not expected to decode a re-transmission of an earlier PDSCH with a starting symbol less than $N$ symbols after the last symbol of that PDSCH, where the value of $N$ depends on the PDSCH subcarrier spacing configuration $\mu$ , with $N=13$ for $\mu=0$ , $N=13$ for $\mu=1$ , $N=20$ for $\mu=2$ , $N=24$ for $\mu=3$ , $N=96$ for $\mu=5$ , and $N=192$ for $\mu=6$ . + +When receiving PDSCH scheduled with SI-RNTI, P-RNTI, G-RNTI for broadcast, MCCH-RNTI, G-RNTI for multicast in RRC\_INACTIVE state or multicast-MCCH-RNTI, the UE may assume that the DM-RS port of PDSCH is quasi co-located with the associated SS/PBCH block with respect to Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread, spatial RX parameters when applicable. + +When receiving PDSCH scheduled with RA-RNTI, or MSGRNTI, the UE may assume that the DM-RS port of PDSCH is quasi co-located with the SS/PBCH block or the CSI-RS resource the UE used for RACH association as applicable, and transmission with respect to Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread, spatial RX parameters when applicable. When receiving a PDSCH scheduled with RA-RNTI in response to a random access procedure triggered by a PDCCH order which triggers contention-free random access procedure for the SpCell [10, TS 38.321], the UE may assume that the DM-RS port of the received PDCCH order and the DM-RS ports of the corresponding PDSCH scheduled with RA-RNTI are quasi co-located with the same SS/PBCH block or CSI-RS with respect to Doppler shift, Doppler spread, average delay, delay spread, spatial RX parameters when applicable.

A UE can be configured by higher layers for multiple periodic CSI Reports corresponding to multiple higher layer configured CSI Reporting Settings, where the associated CSI Resource Settings are higher layer configured. For a Reporting Setting for which the *CSI-ReportConfig* contains a list of sub-configurations provided by [*csi-ReportSubConfigList*], CSI reporting is provided for all the sub-configurations in each corresponding reporting instance. Periodic CSI reporting on PUCCH formats 2, 3, 4 supports Type I CSI with wideband granularity. + +A UE shall perform semi-persistent CSI reporting on the PUCCH applied starting from the first slot that is after slot when the UE would transmit a PUCCH with HARQ-ACK information in slot $n$ corresponding to the PDSCH carrying the activation command described in clause 6.1.3.16 of [10, TS 38.321] where $\mu$ is the SCS configuration for the PUCCH. The activation command will contain one or more Reporting Settings, with or without containing one or more sub-configurations for each Reporting Setting for which the *CSI-ReportConfig* contains a list of sub-configurations provided by [*csi-ReportSubConfigList*], where the associated CSI Resource Settings are configured. Semi-persistent CSI reporting on the PUCCH supports Type I CSI. Semi-persistent CSI reporting on the PUCCH format 2 supports Type I CSI with wideband frequency granularity. Semi-persistent CSI reporting on PUCCH formats 3 or 4 supports Type I CSI with wideband and sub-band frequency granularities and Type II CSI Part 1. + +When the PUCCH carry Type I CSI with wideband frequency granularity, the CSI payload carried by the PUCCH format 2 and PUCCH formats 3, or 4 are identical and the same irrespective of RI (if reported), CRI (if reported). A *CSI-ReportConfig* with *codebookType* set to 'typeI-SinglePanel' and the corresponding CSI-RS Resource Set for channel measurement configured with two Resource Groups and Resource Pairs can be configured with wideband frequency granularity only with *csi-ReportMode* set to 'Mode1' and *numberOfSingleTRP-CSI-Mode1* set to . For type I CSI sub-band reporting on PUCCH formats 3, or 4, the payload is split into two parts. The first part contains RI (if reported), CRI (if reported), CQI for the first codeword. The second part contains PMI (if reported), LI (if reported) and contains the CQI for the second codeword (if reported) when $RI > 4$ . For a *CSI-ReportConfig* configured with subband reporting, *codebookType* set to 'typeI-SinglePanel' and the corresponding CSI-RS Resource Set for channel measurement configured with two Resource Groups and Resource Pairs, Part 1 contains RI(s), CRI(s), CQI(s) for the first codeword and is zero padded to a fixed payload size (if needed). Part 2 contains the CQI(s) for the second codeword (if reported) when $RI$ is larger than 4, LIs (if reported) and PMI(s). For a *CSI-ReportConfig* containing a list of sub-configurations provided by [*csi-ReportSubConfigList*], and configured with subband reporting, for Type I CSI for one or more of the sub-configurations, Part 1 for a sub-configuration contains corresponding RI (if reported), CRI (if reported), CQI for the first codeword (if reported) and is zero padded to a fixed payload size (if needed). Part 2 for a sub-configuration contains the corresponding CQI for the second codeword (if reported) when $RI$ is larger than 4, LI (if reported) and PMI (if reported). + +A semi-persistent report carried on the PUCCH formats 3 or 4 supports Type II CSI feedback, but only Part 1 of Type II CSI feedback (See Clause 5.2.2 and 5.2.3). Supporting Type II CSI reporting on the PUCCH formats 3 or 4 is a UE capability *type2-SP-CSI-Feedback-LongPUCCH*. A Type II CSI report (Part 1 only) carried on PUCCH formats 3 or 4 shall be calculated independently of any Type II CSI reports carried on the PUSCH (see Clause 5.2.3). + +When the UE is configured with CSI Reporting on PUCCH formats 2, 3 or 4, each PUCCH resource is configured for each candidate UL BWP. + +If the UE is in an active semi-persistent CSI reporting configuration on PUCCH and has not received a deactivation command, the CSI reporting takes place when the BWP in which the reporting is configured to take place is the active BWP, otherwise the CSI reporting is suspended. + +A UE is not expected to report CSI with a total number of UCI bits and CRC bits larger than 115 bits when configured with PUCCH format 4. For CSI reports transmitted on a PUCCH, if all CSI reports consist of one part, the UE may omit a portion of CSI reports. Omission of CSI is according to the priority order determined from the $Pri_{i,csi}(y, k, c, s)$ value as defined in Clause 5.2.5. CSI report is omitted beginning with the lowest priority level until the CSI report code rate is less or equal to the one configured by the higher layer parameter *maxCodeRate*. + +If any of the CSI reports consist of two parts, the UE may omit a portion of Part 2 CSI. Omission of Part 2 CSI is according to the priority order shown in Table 5.2.3-1. For a Reporting Setting for which the *CSI-ReportConfig* contains a list of sub-configurations provided by *[csi-ReportSubConfigList]*, for a given CSI report which contains one or more CSI sub-reports, omission of Part 2 CSI is defined in Clause 5.2.3. Part 2 CSI is omitted beginning with the lowest priority level until the Part 2 CSI code rate is less or equal to the one configured by higher layer parameter *maxCodeRate*. + +### 5.2.5 Priority rules for CSI reports + +For two overlapping PUSCHs, the priority rules in this clause are applied for physical channels with same priority index according to clause 9 in [6, TS 38.213] if a UE is not configured with *enableSTx2PofmDCI* or a UE is configured by higher layer parameter *PDCCH-Config* that contains two different values of *coresetPoolIndex* in *ControlResourceSet* and the UE is configured with *enableSTx2PofmDCI* and the two overlapping PUSCHs are associated with same value of *coresetPoolIndex*. + +CSI reports are associated with a priority value where + +- for aperiodic CSI reports to be carried on PUSCH for semi-persistent CSI reports to be carried on PUSCH, for semi-persistent CSI reports to be carried on PUCCH and for periodic CSI reports to be carried on PUCCH; +- for CSI reports carrying L1-RSRP or L1-SINR and for CSI reports not carrying L1-RSRP or L1-SINR; +- *c* is the serving cell index and is the value of the higher layer parameter *maxNrofServingCells*; +- *s* is the *reportConfigID* and is the value of the higher layer parameter *maxNrofCSI-ReportConfigurations*. + +A first CSI report is said to have priority over second CSI report if the associated value is lower for the first report than for the second report. + +Two CSI reports are said to collide if the time occupancy of the physical channels scheduled to carry the CSI reports overlap in at least one OFDM symbol and are transmitted on the same carrier. When a UE is configured to transmit two colliding CSI reports, + +- if *y* values are different between the two CSI reports, the following rules apply except for the case when one of the *y* value is 2 and the other *y* value is 3 (for CSI reports transmitted on PUSCH, as described in Clause 5.2.3; for CSI reports transmitted on PUCCH, as described in Clause 5.2.4): + - The CSI report with higher value shall not be sent by the UE. +- otherwise, the two CSI reports are multiplexed or either is dropped based on the priority values, as described in Clause 9.2.5.2 in [6, TS 38.213]. + +A CSI report configured with *LTM-CSI-ReportConfig* has a higher priority in case of collision with CSI report(s) configured with *CSI-ReportConfig*. + +If a semi-persistent CSI report to be carried on PUSCH overlaps in time with PUSCH data transmission in one or more symbols on the same carrier, and if the earliest symbol of these PUSCH channels starts no earlier than $N_2 + d_{2,1}$ symbols after the last symbol of the DCI scheduling the PUSCH where $d_{2,1}$ is the maximum of the $d_{2,1}$ associated with the PUSCH carrying semi-persistent CSI report and the PUSCH with data transmission, the CSI report shall not be transmitted by the UE. Otherwise, if the timeline requirement is not satisfied this is an error case. + +If a UE would transmit a first PUSCH that includes semi-persistent CSI reports and a second PUSCH that includes an UL-SCH on the same carrier, and the first PUSCH transmission would overlap in time with the second PUSCH transmission, the UE does not transmit the first PUSCH and transmits the second PUSCH. The UE expects that the first and second PUSCH transmissions satisfy the above timing conditions for PUSCH transmissions that overlap in time when at least one of the first or second PUSCH transmissions is in response to a DCI format detection by the UE. + +## 5.3 UE PDSCH processing procedure time + +If the first uplink symbol of the PUCCH which carries the HARQ-ACK information, as defined by the assigned HARQ-ACK timing $K_1$ and $K_{offset}$ , if configured, and the PUCCH resource to be used and including the effect of the timing advance, starts no earlier than at symbol $L_1$ , where $L_1$ is defined as the next uplink symbol with its CP starting after after the end of the last symbol of the PDSCH carrying the TB being acknowledged, then the UE shall provide a valid HARQ-ACK message. + +- $N_l$ is based on $\mu$ of table 5.3-1 and table 5.3-2 for UE processing capability 1 and 2 respectively, where $\mu$ corresponds to the one of $(\mu_{PDCCH}, \mu_{PDSCH}, \mu_{UL})$ resulting with the largest $T_{proc,1}$ , where the $\mu_{PDCCH}$ corresponds to the subcarrier spacing of the PDCCH scheduling the PDSCH, the $\mu_{PDSCH}$ corresponds to the subcarrier spacing of the scheduled PDSCH, and $\mu_{UL}$ corresponds to the subcarrier spacing of the uplink channel with which the HARQ-ACK is assumed to be transmitted regardless of whether or not the PDSCH reception provides a transport block for a HARQ process with disabled HARQ-ACK information as indicated by *HARQ-feedbackEnabling-disablingperHARQprocess*, if provided, and $\kappa$ is defined in clause 4.1 of [4, TS 38.211]. +- For UE processing capability 2, + - if the UE is not indicating [*UE Capability name*], the UE is not expected to be simultaneously configured with higher layer parameter *processingType2Enabled* set to 'enable' and higher layer parameter *enhanced-dmrs-Type\_r18*, and the additional processing delay $d_3$ is 0. + - if the UE is indicating [*UE Capability name*], + - if the UE is configured with higher layer parameter *enhanced-dmrs-Type\_r18*, the additional processing delay $d_3$ is indicated by [*UE Capability name*], + - otherwise $d_3=0$ . +- For operation with shared spectrum channel access in FR1, $T_{ext}$ is calculated according to [4, TS 38.211], otherwise $T_{ext}=0$ . +- If the PDSCH DM-RS position for the additional DM-RS in Table 7.4.1.1.2-3 in clause 7.4.1.1.2 of [4, TS 38.211] is then $N_{l,0}=14$ in Table 5.3-1, otherwise $N_{l,0}=13$ . +- If the UE is configured with multiple active component carriers, the first uplink symbol which carries the HARQ-ACK information further includes the effect of timing difference between the component carriers as given in [11, TS 38.133]. +- For the PDSCH mapping type A as given in clause 7.4.1.1 of [4, TS 38.211]: if the last symbol of PDSCH is on the $i$ -th symbol of the slot where $i < 7$ , then $d_{l,l} = 7 - i$ , otherwise $d_{l,l} = 0$ +- If a PUCCH of a larger priority index would overlap with a PUCCH of a smaller priority index, or with a PUSCH of a smaller priority index and the PUCCH of a larger priority index and the PUSCH of a smaller priority index are not simultaneously transmitted and the UE is not provided *uci-MuxWithDiffPrio* for the primary PUCCH group or *uci-MuxWithDiffPrioSecondaryPUCCHgroup* for the secondary PUCCH group, $d_2$ for the PUCCH of a larger priority is set as reported by the UE; otherwise $d_2 = 0$ . +- For UE processing capability 1: If the PDSCH is mapping type B as given in clause 7.4.1.1 of [4, TS 38.211], and + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is $L \geq 7$ , then $d_{l,l} = 0$ , + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is $L \geq 4$ and $L \leq 6$ , then $d_{l,l} = 7 - L$ . + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is $L = 3$ then $d_{l,l} = 3 + \min(d, l)$ , where $d$ is the number of overlapping symbols of the scheduling PDCCH and the scheduled PDSCH. + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is 2, then $d_{l,l} = 3 + d$ , where $d$ is the number of overlapping symbols of the scheduling PDCCH and the scheduled PDSCH. +- For UE processing capability 2: If the PDSCH is mapping type B as given in clause 7.4.1.1 of [4, TS 38.211], + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is $L \geq 7$ , then $d_{l,l} = 0$ , + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is $L \geq 3$ and $L \leq 6$ , then $d_{l,l}$ is the number of overlapping symbols of the scheduling PDCCH and the scheduled PDSCH, + - if the number of PDSCH symbols allocated is 2, + +- if the scheduling PDCCH was in a 3-symbol CORESET and the CORESET and the PDSCH had the same starting symbol, then $d_{l,l} = 3$ , +- otherwise $d_{l,l}$ is the number of overlapping symbols of the scheduling PDCCH and the scheduled PDSCH. +- For UE processing capability 2 with scheduling limitation when $\mu_{PDSCH} = 1$ , if the scheduled RB allocation exceeds 136 RBs, the UE defaults to capability 1 processing time.

SS reference signal received power (SS-RSRP) is defined as the linear average over the power contributions (in [W]) of the resource elements that carry secondary synchronization signals. The measurement time resource(s) for SS-RSRP are confined within SS/PBCH Block Measurement Time Configuration (SMTC) window duration. If SS-RSRP is used for L1-RSRP as configured by reporting configurations as defined in TS 38.214 [6], the measurement time resources(s) restriction by SMTC window duration is not applicable.

For SS-RSRP determination demodulation reference signals for physical broadcast channel (PBCH) and, if indicated by higher layers, CSI reference signals in addition to secondary synchronization signals may be used. SS-RSRP using demodulation reference signal for PBCH or CSI reference signal shall be measured by linear averaging over the power contributions of the resource elements that carry corresponding reference signals taking into account power scaling for the reference signals as defined in TS 38.213 [5]. If SS-RSRP is not used for L1-RSRP, the additional use of CSI reference signals for SS-RSRP determination is not applicable.

SS-RSRP shall be measured only among the reference signals corresponding to SS/PBCH blocks with the same SS/PBCH block index and the same physical-layer cell identity.

If SS-RSRP is not used for L1-RSRP and higher-layers indicate certain SS/PBCH blocks for performing SS-RSRP measurements, then SS-RSRP is measured only from the indicated set of SS/PBCH block(s).

For frequency range 1, the reference point for the SS-RSRP shall be the antenna connector of the UE. For frequency range 2, SS-RSRP shall be measured based on the combined signal from antenna elements corresponding to a given receiver branch. For frequency range 1 and 2, if receiver diversity is in use by the UE, the reported SS-RSRP value shall not be lower than the corresponding SS-RSRP of any of the individual receiver branches.

The NG-RAN architecture, i.e. the NG-RAN logical nodes and interfaces between them, are defined as part of the RNL. + +The NG-RAN architecture consists of a set of gNBs and ng-eNBs which are connected to the 5GC through the NG interface and is specified in TS 38.300 [7]. + +The NG-RAN may have several NG access points towards the 5GC. As a minimum, each NG access point (in NG-RAN or 5GC) shall independently fulfil the requirements of the relevant NG specifications (3GPP 38.41x series - see clause 7). + +NG is a logical interface. + +There may be multiple NG-C logical interfaces towards the 5GC from any one NG-RAN node. The selection of the NG-C interface is then determined by the NAS Node Selection function as described in clause 5. + +There may be multiple NG-U logical interfaces towards the 5GC from any one NG-RAN node. The selection of the NG-U interface is done within the 5GC and signalled to the NG-RAN node by the AMF. + +## 4.2 NG interface general principles + +The general principles for the specification of the NG interface are as follows: + +- the NG interface is open; +- the NG interface supports the exchange of signalling information between the NG-RAN and 5GC; +- from a logical standpoint, the NG is a point-to-point interface between an NG-RAN node and a 5GC node. A point-to-point logical interface is feasible even in the absence of a physical direct connection between the NG-RAN and 5GC; +- the NG interface supports control plane and user plane separation; +- the NG interface separates Radio Network Layer and Transport Network Layer; +- the NG interface is future proof to fulfil different new requirements and support of new services and new functions; +- the NG interface is decoupled with the possible NG-RAN deployment variants; +- the NG Application Protocol supports modular procedures design and uses a syntax allowing optimized encoding /decoding efficiency. + +## 4.3 NG interface specification objectives + +The NG interface specification facilitates the following: + +- inter-connection of NG-RAN nodes with AMFs supplied by different manufacturers; +- separation of NG interface Radio Network functionality and Transport Network functionality to facilitate introduction of future technology. + +## 4.4 NG interface capabilities + +The NG interface supports: + +- procedures to establish, maintain and release NG-RAN part of PDU sessions; +- procedures to perform intra-RAT handover and inter-RAT handover; +- the separation of each UE on the protocol level for user specific signalling management; +- the transfer of NAS signalling messages between UE and AMF; +- mechanisms for resource reservation for packet data streams; +- procedures to establish, maintain and release NG-RAN part of MBS sessions. + +# 5 Functions of the NG interface + +## 5.1 General + +The following clauses describe the functions supported over the NG interface. + +## 5.2 Paging function + +The paging function supports the sending of paging requests to the NG-RAN nodes involved in the paging area e.g. the NG-RAN nodes of the TA(s) the UE is registered. + +The function also supports CN controlled subgrouping paging for UE Power Saving. + +## 5.3 UE Context Management function + +The UE Context management function allows the AMF to establish, modify or release a UE Context in the AMF and the NG-RAN node e.g. to support user individual signalling on NG. + +The function also enables the AMF to manage RRC state notifications of a CM-CONNECTED UE. + +## 5.4 Mobility Management function + +The mobility function for UEs in CM-CONNECTED includes the intra-system handover function to support mobility within NG-RAN and inter-system handover function to support mobility from/to EPS system. It comprises the preparation, execution and completion of handover via the NG interface. + +## 5.5 PDU Session Management function + +The PDU Session function is responsible for establishing, modifying and releasing the involved PDU sessions NG-RAN resources for user data transport once a UE context is available in the NG-RAN node. + +NGAP supports transparent relaying of PDU Session related information by the AMF as described in TS 23.502 [6]. + +## 5.6 NAS Transport function + +The NAS Signalling Transport function provides means to transport or reroute a NAS message (e.g. for NAS mobility management), or report the non-delivery of a NAS message for a specific UE over the NG interface. + +## 5.7 NAS Node Selection function + +The interconnection of NG-RAN nodes to multiple AMFs is supported in the 5GS architecture. + +Therefore, a NAS node selection function is located in the NG-RAN node to determine the AMF association of the UE, based on the UE's temporary identifier, which was assigned to the UE by the AMF. When the UE's temporary identifier has not been yet assigned or is no longer valid the NG-RAN node may instead take into account other information (e.g. slicing information, onboarding indication) to determine the AMF. When the NG-RAN node is configured to ensure that the selected AMF serves the country where the UE is located, as described in TS 23.501 [8], the NG-RAN node takes into account UE location information, if available, when determining the AMF. + +This functionality is located in the NG-RAN node and enables proper routing via the NG interface. On NG, no specific procedure corresponds to the NAS Node Selection Function. + +## 5.8 NG Interface Management function + +The NG-interface management functions provide + +- means to ensure a defined start of NG-interface operation (reset); +- means to handle different versions of application part implementations and protocol errors (error indication). + +## 5.9 Warning Message Transmission function + +The warning message transmission function provides means to transfer warning messages via NG interface or cancel ongoing broadcast of warning messages. It also provides the capability for the NG-RAN to inform the AMF that ongoing PWS operation has failed for one or more areas, or that one or more areas may be reloaded by the CBC. + +## 5.10 Configuration Transfer function + +The Configuration Transfer function is a generic mechanism that allows the request and transfer of RAN configuration information (e.g. SON information) between two RAN nodes via the core network. + +## 5.11 Trace function + +The Trace function provides means to control trace sessions in the NG-RAN node. + +## 5.12 AMF Management function + +The AMF management function supports AMF planned removal and AMF auto-recovery as specified in TS 23.501 [8]. + +## 5.13 Multiple TNL Associations Support Function + +When there are multiple TNL associations between a NG-RAN node and an AMF, the NG-RAN node selects the TNL association for NGAP signalling based on the usage and the weight factor of each TNL association received from the AMF, and uses the TNL association as specified in TS 23.501 [8] and TS 23.502 [6]. If an AMF releases a TNL association or a TNL association has failed, the NG-RAN node selects a new one as specified in TS 23.501 [8] and TS 23.502 [6]. + +## 5.14 AMF Load Balancing function + +The NG interface supports the indication by the AMF of its relative capacity to the NG-RAN node in order to achieve load-balanced AMFs within the pool area. + +## 5.15 Location Reporting function + +This function enables the AMF to request the NG-RAN node to report the UE's current location, or the UE's last known location with timestamp, or the UE's presence in a configured area of interest. + +## 5.16 AMF Re-allocation function + +This function allows to redirect an initial connection request issued by an NG-RAN node from an initial AMF towards a target AMF selected by 5GC. In this case the NG-RAN node initiates an Initial UE Message procedure over one NG interface instance and receives the first downlink message to close the UE-associated logical connection over a different NG interface instance. + +## 5.17 UE Radio Capability Management function + +The UE Radio Capability Management function is related to the UE radio capability handling. + +## 5.18 NRPPa Signaling Transport function + +The NRPPa (NR Positioning Protocol A) Signalling Transport function provides means to transport an NRPPa (3GPP TS 38.455 [10]) message transparently over the NG interface. + +## 5.19 Overload Control function + +The overload function provides means to enable AMF controls the load that the NG-RAN node(s) are generating. + +## 5.20 Report of Secondary RAT data volumes Function + +The Report of Secondary RAT data volumes Function enables the NG-RAN node to report Secondary RAT usage data information in case of MR-DC, either with a dedicated procedure or by including Secondary RAT usage data information in other messages. + +## 5.21 RIM Information Transfer function + +The RIM Information Transfer function is a generic mechanism that allows the transfer of Remote Interference Management (RIM) information between two RAN nodes via the core network. + +## 5.22 Retrieve UE Information function + +The Retrieve UE Information function enables the NG-RAN node to request UE information (e.g. QoS differentiation information) from the AMF before the setup of the NG connection for NB-IoT UE(s) using Control Plane CIoT 5GS Optimization. + +## 5.23 RAN CP Relocation Indication function + +The RAN CP Relocation Indication function enables the initiation of the UE-associated logical NG-connection for a NB-IoT UE using Control Plane CIoT 5GS Optimisation following a re-establishment request. It allows to have the re-establishment request authenticated by the AMF. + +## 5.24 Suspend-Resume function + +This function enables to suspend the UE-associated logical NG-connection and release the NG-U tunnel while storing the UE context in the NG-RAN for a faster subsequent resume as specified for User Plane CIoT 5GS optimizations in TS 23.501 [8]. In this version of the specification, this function only applies for long eDRX cycles. + +## 5.25 Connection Establishment Indication Function + +The connection establishment indication function enables the AMF to complete the establishment of the UE-associated logical NG-connection. + +## 5.26 AMF CP Relocation Indication Function + +The AMF CP relocation indication function enables the AMF to inform the previously serving NG-RAN node that the UE's connection is to be relocated to a new NG-RAN node. + +## 5.27 NR MBS Session Management function + +The MBS Session Management function is responsible for establishing, modifying and releasing the involved NR MBS sessions NG-RAN resources for user data transport once an MBS context is available in the NG-RAN node. + +NGAP supports transparent relaying of MBS Session related information by the AMF as described in TS 23.247 [12]. + +## 5.28 Multicast Group Paging Function + +The Multicast group paging function supports the sending of multicast group paging requests to the NG-RAN nodes in order to group-page UEs that have joined the Multicast MBS Session + +## 5.29 QMC support function + +The QMC function provides means to manage the QMC sessions and support the mobility of QMC sessions over the NG interface. + +## 5.30 MT Communication Handling function + +The function enables to support MT data and signalling handling within the CN for UEs in RRC\_INACTIVE state with extended DRX beyond 10.24s as specified in TS 23.501[8]. + +## 5.31 Timing Synchronisation Status Reporting function + +The Timing Synchronisation Status Reporting function enables the AMF to request the NG-RAN node to report the RAN timing synchronisation status information, and for the NG-RAN node to provide the RAN timing synchronisation status information to the AMF. + +# --- 6 Signalling procedures of the NG interface + +## 6.1 PDU Session Management Procedures + +The following PDU Session management procedures are used to establish, release or modify PDU sessions. + +- PDU Session Resource Setup; +- PDU Session Resource Release; +- PDU Session Resource Modify; +- PDU Session Resource Notify; +- PDU Session Resource Modify Indication. + +## 6.2 UE Context Management Procedures + +The following UE Context management procedures are used to establish, release or modify the UE context. They may also be used to report RRC state transition from NG-RAN to 5GC. + +- Initial Context Setup; +- UE Context Release Request; +- UE Context Release; +- UE Context Modification; + +- RRC Inactive Transition Report. + +## 6.3 NAS transport procedures + +The NAS transport procedures enable transparent transfer of NAS signalling data between the AMF and the UE. The procedures providing this functionality are: + +- Initial UE Message (NG-RAN node initiated); +- Uplink NAS transport (NG-RAN node initiated); +- Downlink NAS transport (AMF initiated); +- NAS non delivery indication (NG-RAN node initiated); +- Reroute NAS Request (AMF initiated). + +## 6.4 UE Mobility Management Procedures + +The following UE Mobility management procedures are used to prepare, execute or cancel handovers: + +- Handover Preparation; +- Handover Resource Allocation; +- Handover Notification; +- Path Switch Request; +- Uplink RAN Status Transfer; +- Downlink RAN Status Transfer; +- Handover Cancellation ; +- Handover Success; +- Uplink RAN Early Status Transfer; +- Downlink RAN Early Status Transfer. + +## 6.5 Paging procedure + +The following paging procedure is used to send paging requests to the NG-RAN nodes involved in the paging area: + +- Paging. + +## 6.6 AMF Management procedures + +The following AMF management procedures are used by the AMF to inform the NG-RAN nodes about an AMF's status, and to release the UE TNLA binding for specific UE(s): + +- AMF Status Indication; +- UE TNLA binding release. + +## 6.7 NG Interface Management procedures + +The following procedures are used to manage the NG interface: + +- NG Setup; + +- RAN Configuration Update; +- AMF Configuration Update; +- NG Reset; +- Error Indication. + +## 6.8 Warning message transmission procedures + +The following procedures are used to manage the broadcasting of warning messages: + +- Write-Replace Warning; +- PWS Cancel; +- PWS Restart Indication; +- PWS Failure Indication. + +## 6.9 Location Reporting procedures + +The following procedures are used to report the location of the UE: + +- Location Reporting Control; +- Location Report; +- Location Reporting Failure Indication. + +## 6.10 UE Radio Capability Management procedures + +The following procedures are related to the UE radio capability handling: + +- UE Radio Capability Check; +- UE Radio Capability Info Indication; +- UE Radio Capability ID Mapping. + +## 6.11 UE Tracing procedures + +The following procedures are used to trace the UE: + +- Trace Start; +- Trace Failure Indication; +- Deactivate Trace; +- Cell Traffic Trace. + +## 6.12 NR Positioning Protocol A (NRPPa) procedures + +The following procedures are used for NRPPa signalling: + +- Downlink UE Associated NRPPa Transport; +- Uplink UE Associated NRPPa Transport; +- Downlink non-UE Associated NRPPa Transport; + +- Uplink non-UE Associated NRPPa Transport. + +## 6.13 Overload Control procedures + +The following procedures are used by the AMF to start or stop overload control: + +- Overload Start procedure; +- Overload Stop procedure. + +## 6.14 Configuration Transfer procedures + +The following procedures are used by the AMF to transfer the RAN configuration information: + +- Downlink RAN Configuration Transfer procedure; +- Uplink RAN Configuration Transfer procedure. + +## 6.15 Secondary RAT Data Usage Report procedure + +The following procedure is used to provide information on the used resources of the secondary RAT: + +- Secondary RAT Data Usage Report procedure. + +## 6.16 RIM Information Transfer procedures + +The following procedures are used by the AMF to transfer the Remote Interference Management (RIM) information: + +- Downlink RIM Information Transfer procedure; +- Uplink RIM Information Transfer procedure. + +## 6.17 Retrieve UE Information procedures + +The following procedures are used by the NG-RAN node to retrieve UE information from the AMF: + +- Retrieve UE Information Request procedure; +- UE Information Transfer procedure. + +## 6.18 RAN CP Relocation Indication procedures + +The following procedure is used by the NG-RAN node to initiate the UE-associated logical NG-connection for the RAN CP Relocation function: + +- RAN CP Relocation Indication procedure. + +## 6.19 UE Context Suspend procedure + +The following procedure is to suspend the UE-associated logical NG-connection and release the NG-U tunnel with the 5GC while keeping the UE context in NG-RAN.

Any rule that specifies the behaviour of the originating NG-RAN Node shall be possible to be verified with information that is visible within the system. + +The following specification principles have been applied for the procedure text in clause 8: + +- The procedure text discriminates between: + +- 1) Functionality which "shall" be executed + +The procedure text indicates that the receiving node "shall" perform a certain function Y under a certain condition. If the receiving node supports procedure X but cannot perform functionality Y requested in the initiating message of a Class 1 EP, the receiving node shall respond with the message used to report unsuccessful outcome for this procedure, containing an appropriate cause value. + +- 2) Functionality which "shall, if supported" be executed + +The procedure text indicates that the receiving node "shall, if supported," perform a certain function Y under a certain condition. If the receiving node supports procedure X, but does not support functionality Y, the receiving node shall proceed with the execution of the EP, possibly informing the requesting node about the not supported functionality. + +- Any required inclusion of an optional IE in a response message is explicitly indicated in the procedure text.

In case there is contradiction between the ASN.1 definition in this sub clause and the tabular format in sub clause 9.1 and 9.2, the ASN.1 shall take precedence, except for the definition of conditions for the presence of conditional elements, in which the tabular format shall take precedence. + +The ASN.1 definition specifies the structure and content of NRPPa messages. NRPPa messages can contain any IEs specified in the object set definitions for that message without the order or number of occurrence being restricted by ASN.1. However, for this version of the standard, a sending entity shall construct an NRPPa message according to the PDU definitions module and with the following additional rules (Note that in the following, "IE" means an IE in the object set with an explicit id. If one IE needs to appear more than once in one object set, then the different occurrences have different IE ids): + +- IEs shall be ordered (in an IE container) in the order they appear in object set definitions. +- Object set definitions specify how many times IEs may appear. An IE shall appear exactly once if the presence field in an object has value "mandatory". An IE may appear at most once if the presence field in an object has value "optional" or "conditional". If in a tabular format there is multiplicity specified for an IE (i.e. an IE list) then in the corresponding ASN.1 definition the list definition is separated into two parts. The first part defines an IE container list in which the list elements reside. The second part defines list elements. The IE container list appears as an IE of its own. For this version of the standard an IE container list may contain only one kind of list elements. + +If an NRPPa message that is not constructed as defined above is received, this shall be considered as Abstract Syntax Error, and the message shall be handled as defined for Abstract Syntax Error in clause 10. + +### 9.3.2 Usage of Private Message Mechanism for Non-standard Use + +The private message mechanism for non-standard use may be used: + +- for special operator (and/or vendor) specific features considered not to be part of the basic functionality, i.e. the functionality required for a complete and high-quality specification in order to guarantee multivendor inter-operability. +- by vendors for research purposes, e.g. to implement and evaluate new algorithms/features before such features are proposed for standardisation. + +The private message mechanism shall not be used for basic functionality. Such functionality shall be standardised. + +### 9.3.3 Elementary Procedure Definitions + +-- ASN1START + +``` +-- ***** +-- +-- Elementary Procedure definitions +-- +-- ***** +``` + +```

The Payload Protocol Identifier (ppid) to be used by SCTP for the application layer protocol F1AP and for DTLS over SCTP (IETF RFC 6083 [9]) is assigned by IANA in [11]. The byte order of the ppid shall be big-endian. + +SCTP refers to the Stream Control Transmission Protocol developed by the Sigtran working group of the IETF for the purpose of transporting various signalling protocols over IP network. + +The gNB-DU and gNB-CU shall support a configuration with a single SCTP association per gNB-DU/gNB-CU pair. Configurations with multiple SCTP endpoints per gNB-DU/gNB-CU pair should be supported. When configurations with multiple SCTP associations are supported, the gNB-CU/gNB-DU may request to dynamically add/remove SCTP associations between the gNB-DU/gNB-CU pair. + +The gNB-DU shall establish the SCTP association. The SCTP Destination Port number value to be used by F1AP is assigned by IANA in [12]. When the gNB-CU requests to dynamically add additional SCTP associations between the gNB-DU/gNB-CU pair, the SCTP Destination Port number value may be the one assigned by IANA in [12], or any dynamic port value (IETF RFC 6335 [10]). + +Within the set of SCTP associations established between one gNB-CU and gNB-DU pair, a single SCTP association shall be employed for F1AP elementary procedures that utilize non-UE-associated signalling with the possibility of fail-over to a new association to enable robustness. Selection of the SCTP association by the gNB-DU and the gNB-CU is specified in TS 38.401 [7]. + +When the configuration with multiple SCTP endpoints per gNB-DU is supported and gNB-DU wants to add additional SCTP endpoints, the gNB-DU Configuration Update procedure shall be the first F1AP procedure triggered on an + +additional TNLA of an already setup F1-C interface instance after the TNL association has become operational, and the gNB-CU shall associate the TNLA to the F1-C interface instance using the included gNB-DU ID. + +Between one gNB-CU and gNB-DU pair: + +- A single pair of stream identifiers shall be reserved over an SCTP association for the sole use of F1AP elementary procedures that utilize non UE-associated signalling. +- At least one pair of stream identifiers over one or several SCTP associations shall be reserved for the sole use of F1AP elementary procedures that utilize UE-associated signalling. However, a few pairs (i.e. more than one) should be reserved. +- For a single UE-associated signalling, the gNB-DU shall use one SCTP association and one SCTP stream, and the SCTP association/stream should not be changed during the communication of the UE-associated signalling until after current SCTP association is failed or removed, or TNL binding update is performed. + +Transport network redundancy may be achieved by SCTP multi-homing between two end-points, of which one or both is assigned with multiple IP addresses. SCTP end-points shall support a multi-homed remote SCTP end-point. For SCTP endpoint redundancy an INIT may be sent from a gNB-CU or gNB-DU, at any time for an already established SCTP association, which shall be handled as defined in IETF RFC 4960 [5] in sub clause 5.2. + +The SCTP congestion control may, using an implementation specific mechanism, initiate higher layer protocols to reduce the signalling traffic at the source and prioritise certain messages. + +For MBS-associated signalling, principles specified above for UE-associated signalling shall apply. + +# Annex A (informative): Change History + +| Change history | | | | | | | | |

The F1 interface provides means for interconnecting a gNB-CU and a gNB-DU of a gNB within an NG-RAN, or for interconnecting a gNB-CU and a gNB-DU of an en-gNB within an E-UTRAN. The F1 Application Protocol (F1AP) supports the functions of F1 interface by signalling procedures defined in the present document. F1AP is developed in accordance to the general principles stated in TS 38.401 [4] and TS 38.470 [2]. + +# 2 References + +The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. + +- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific. + - For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. + - For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.

An Elementary Procedure is a unit of interaction between gNB-CU and gNB-DU. These Elementary Procedures are defined separately and are intended to be used to build up complete sequences in a flexible manner. If the independence between some EPs is restricted, it is described under the relevant EP description. Unless otherwise stated by the restrictions, the EPs may be invoked independently of each other as standalone procedures, which can be active in parallel. The usage of several F1AP EPs together is specified in stage 2 specifications (e.g., TS 38.470 [2]). + +An EP consists of an initiating message and possibly a response message. Two kinds of EPs are used: + +- **Class 1:** Elementary Procedures with response (success and/or failure). +- **Class 2:** Elementary Procedures without response. + +For Class 1 EPs, the types of responses can be as follows: + +Successful: + +- A signalling message explicitly indicates that the elementary procedure successfully completed with the receipt of the response. + +Unsuccessful: + +- A signalling message explicitly indicates that the EP failed. +- On time supervision expiry (i.e., absence of expected response). + +Successful and Unsuccessful: + +- One signalling message reports both successful and unsuccessful outcome for the different included requests. The response message used is the one defined for successful outcome. + +Class 2 EPs are considered always successful. + +**BH RLC channel:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**Conditional handover:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**Conditional PSCell Addition:** as defined in TS 37.340 [7]. + +**Conditional PSCell Change:** as defined in TS 37.340 [7]. + +**DAPS Handover:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**EN-DC operation:** Used in this specification when the F1AP is applied for gNB-CU and gNB-DU in E-UTRAN. + +**gNB:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**gNB-CU:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**gNB-CU UE F1AP ID:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**gNB-DU:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**gNB-DU UE F1AP ID:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**en-gNB:** as defined in TS 37.340 [7]. + +**IAB-MT:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**IAB-DU:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**IAB-node:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**IAB-donor:** as defined in TS 38.300 [6]. + +**IAB-donor-CU:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**IAB-donor-DU:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**MBS session resource:** as defined in TS 38.401 [4]. + +**MBS-associated signalling:** When F1AP messages associated to one MBS session uses the MBS-associated logical F1-connection for association of the message to the MBS session in gNB-DU and gNB-CU. + +**MBS-associated logical F1-connection:** The MBS-associated logical F1-connection uses the identities *GNB-CU MBS F1AP ID* and *GNB-DU MBS F1AP ID* according to the definition in TS 38.401 [4].

Any rule that specifies the behaviour of the originating node shall be possible to be verified with information that is visible within the system. + +The following specification principles have been applied for the procedure text in clause 8: + +- The procedure text discriminates between: + +1) Functionality which "shall" be executed. + +The procedure text indicates that the receiving node "shall" perform a certain function Y under a certain condition. If the receiving node supports procedure X but cannot perform functionality Y requested in the REQUEST message of a Class 1 EP, the receiving node shall respond with the message used to report unsuccessful outcome for this procedure, containing an appropriate cause value. + +2) Functionality which "shall, if supported" be executed. + +The procedure text indicates that the receiving node "shall, if supported," perform a certain function Y under a certain condition. If the receiving node supports procedure X, but does not support functionality Y, the receiving node shall proceed with the execution of the EP, possibly informing the requesting node about the not supported functionality. + +- Any required inclusion of an optional IE in a response message is explicitly indicated in the procedure text. If the procedure text does not explicitly indicate that an optional IE shall be included in a response message, the optional IE shall not be included. For requirements on including *Criticality Diagnostics* IE, see clause 10. + +## 4.2 Forwards and backwards compatibility + +The forwards and backwards compatibility of the protocol is assured by mechanism where all current and future messages, and IEs or groups of related IEs, include ID and criticality fields that are coded in a standard format that will not be changed in the future. These parts can always be decoded regardless of the standard version. + +## 4.3 Specification notations + +For the purposes of the present document, the following notations apply: + +| | | +|----------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| Procedure | When referring to an elementary procedure in the specification the Procedure Name is written with the first letters in each word in upper case characters followed by the word "procedure", e.g. Handover Preparation procedure. | +| Message | When referring to a message in the specification the MESSAGE NAME is written with all letters in upper case characters followed by the word "message", e.g. HANDOVER REQUEST message. | +| IE | When referring to an information element (IE) in the specification the Information Element Name is written with the first letters in each word in upper case characters and all letters in Italic font followed by the abbreviation "IE", e.g. E-RAB ID IE. | +| Value of an IE | When referring to the value of an information element (IE) in the specification the "Value" is written as it is specified in the specification enclosed by quotation marks, e.g. "Value". | + +--- + +## 5 F1AP services + +F1AP provides the signalling service between gNB-DU and the gNB-CU that is required to fulfil the F1AP functions described in clause 7.

NOTE: If E1 is deployed, the Multicast F1-U Bearer Context Reference CU IE refers to the Multicast F1-U Context ReferenceE1 IE as specified in TS 37.483 [47]. | + +## 9.4 Message and Information Element Abstract Syntax (with ASN.1) + +### 9.4.1 General + +FIAP ASN.1 definition conforms to ITU-T Recommendation X.691 [5], ITU-T Recommendation X.680 [12] and ITU-T Recommendation X.681 [13]. + +The ASN.1 definition specifies the structure and content of FIAP messages. FIAP messages can contain any IEs specified in the object set definitions for that message without the order or number of occurrence being restricted by + +ASN.1. However, for this version of the standard, a sending entity shall construct an FIAP message according to the PDU definitions module and with the following additional rules: + +- IEs shall be ordered (in an IE container) in the order they appear in object set definitions. +- Object set definitions specify how many times IEs may appear. An IE shall appear exactly once if the presence field in an object has value "mandatory". An IE may appear at most once if the presence field in an object has value "optional" or "conditional". If in a tabular format there is multiplicity specified for an IE (i.e., an IE list) then in the corresponding ASN.1 definition the list definition is separated into two parts. The first part defines an IE container list where the list elements reside. The second part defines list elements. The IE container list appears as an IE of its own. For this version of the standard an IE container list may contain only one kind of list elements. + +NOTE: In the above "IE" means an IE in the object set with an explicit ID. If one IE needs to appear more than once in one object set, then the different occurrences will have different IE IDs. + +If an FIAP message that is not constructed as defined above is received, this shall be considered as Abstract Syntax Error, and the message shall be handled as defined for Abstract Syntax Error in clause 10. + +## 9.4.2 Usage of private message mechanism for non-standard use + +The private message mechanism for non-standard use may be used: + +- for special operator- (and/or vendor) specific features considered not to be part of the basic functionality, i.e., the functionality required for a complete and high-quality specification in order to guarantee multivendor interoperability; +- by vendors for research purposes, e.g., to implement and evaluate new algorithms/features before such features are proposed for standardisation. + +The private message mechanism shall not be used for basic functionality. Such functionality shall be standardised. + +### 9.4.3 Elementary Procedure Definitions + +-- ASN1START + +-- \*\*\*\*\* + +-- + +-- Elementary Procedure definitions + +-- + +-- \*\*\*\*\* +

Except the downlink F1-U to the IAB node, the mapping between traffic categories and Diffserv code points shall be configurable by O&M based on 5G QoS Identifier (5QI) , the Priority Level (if explicitly signalled), and other NG-RAN traffic parameters (e.g. ARP). Traffic categories are implementation-specific and may be determined from the application parameters. In the IAB system, the Diffserv code points used for the downlink F1-U shall be configurable by the CU-CP based on the O&M-configured mapping between traffic categories and Diffserv code points. \ No

The same DUT were measured with different attenuation values. It can be observed that, as the attenuation value increases, the measurement results first get better and then become stable. At the lower frequency, the effect of the attenuation value is more obvious, and it requires a larger attenuation to make the measurement results stable. The reason is that at lower frequency, the path loss from the amplifier output to the chamber centre is smaller, and when the amplifier noise arrives at the chamber centre, it has higher power than that at higher frequency. + +Adding attenuators after the amplifiers can reduce the noise and make it neglectable for FR1 MIMO OTA testing. A suitable attenuation value can be selected, e.g., for band n28, the measurement results with 20dB-attenuation and 30dB-attenuation are almost the same, but the measurement result with 10dB-attenuation is worse, which means 20dB-attenuation is enough for band n28 in Lab 1's MPAC system. + +![Figure 7.2-2(a): Measured MIMO OTA performance for Band n28 (780.5MHz).

XR is an umbrella term for different types of realities (see TR 26.918 [5] and TR 26.928 [7]): + +- Virtual reality (**VR**) is a rendered version of a delivered visual and audio scene. The rendering is designed to mimic the visual and audio sensory stimuli of the real world as naturally as possible to an observer or user as they move within the limits defined by the application. Virtual reality usually, but not necessarily, requires a user to wear a head mounted display (HMD), to completely replace the user's field of view with a simulated visual component, and to wear headphones, to provide the user with the accompanying audio. Some form of head and motion tracking of the user in VR is usually also necessary to allow the simulated visual and audio components to be updated in order to ensure that, from the user's perspective, items and sound sources remain consistent with the user's movements. +- Augmented reality (**AR**) is when a user is provided with additional information or artificially generated items or content overlaid upon their current environment. Such additional information or content will usually be visual and/or audible and their observation of their current environment may be direct, with no intermediate sensing, processing and rendering, or indirect, where their perception of their environment is relayed via sensors and may be enhanced or processed. +- Mixed reality (**MR**) is an advanced form of AR where some virtual elements are inserted into the physical scene with the intent to provide the illusion that these elements are part of the real scene. + +Other terms used in the context of XR are Immersion as the sense of being surrounded by the virtual environment as well as Presence providing the feeling of being physically and spatially located in the virtual environment. The sense of presence provides significant minimum performance requirements for different technologies such as tracking, latency, persistency, resolution and optics. + +This document uses the acronym XR throughout to refer to equipment, applications and functions used for VR, AR and MR. Examples include, but are not limited to HMDs for VR, optical see-through glasses and camera see-through HMDs for AR and MR and mobile devices with positional tracking and camera. They all offer some degree of spatial tracking and the spatial tracking results in an interaction to view some form of virtual content. + +## 4.2 Human Perception and Tracking + +For providing XR experiences that make the user feel *immersed* and *present*, several relevant quality of experience factors have been collected (see TR 26.926 [7]). Presence is the feeling of being physically and spatially located in an environment. Presence is divided into 2 types: Cognitive Presence and Perceptive Presence. Cognitive Presence is the presence of one's mind. It can be achieved by watching a compelling film or reading an engaging book. Cognitive Presence is important for an immersive experience of any kind. Perceptive Presence is the presence of one's senses. To accomplish perceptive presence, one's senses, sights, sound, touch and smell, have to be tricked. To create perceptive presence, the XR Device has to fool the user's senses, most notably the audio-visual system. XR Devices achieve this through positional tracking based on the movement. The goal of the system is to maintain your sense of presence and avoid breaking it. Perceptive Presence is the objective to be achieved by XR applications. + +The Human field of view (**FoV**) is defined as the area of vision at a given moment (with a fixed head). It is the angle of visible field expressed in degrees measured from the focal point. The monocular FoV is the angle of the visible field of one eye whereas the binocular FoV is the combination of the two eyes fields (see TR 26.918 [5]). The binocular horizontal FoV is around 200-220°, while the vertical one around 135°. The central vision, which is about 60°, is also called the comfort zone where sensibility to details is the most important. Although less sensitive to definition, the peripheral vision is more receptive to movements. + +In XR, actions and interactions involve movements and gestures. Thereby, the Degrees of Freedom (**DoF**) describe the number of independent parameters used to define movement in the 3D space (see TR 26.928 [7]): + +- 3DoF: three rotational and un-limited movements around the X, Y and Z axes (respectively pitch, yaw and roll). A typical use case is a user sitting in a chair looking at 3D 360 VR content on an HMD. + +![Figure 4.2-1: 3DoF diagram showing a person sitting in a chair with arrows indicating Yaw, Pitch, and Roll* rotation axes.](07f537f57749b75157f742525e6a8dbc_img.jpg) + +A diagram of a person sitting in a chair, illustrating the three degrees of freedom (3DoF) for head rotation. The person is shown from a side profile. Three curved arrows indicate the rotational axes: 'Yaw' (vertical axis, rotating left and right), 'Pitch' (horizontal axis, rotating up and down), and 'Roll\*' (diagonal axis, rotating side to side). A small 3D icon of a head is shown at the bottom right. + +Figure 4.2-1: 3DoF diagram showing a person sitting in a chair with arrows indicating Yaw, Pitch, and Roll\* rotation axes. + +Figure 4.2-1: 3DoF + +- 6DoF: 3DoF with full translational movements along X, Y and Z axes. Beyond the 3DoF experience, it adds (i) moving up and down (elevating/heaving); (ii) moving left and right (strafing/swaying); and (iii) moving forward and backward (walking/surging). A typical use case is a user freely walking through 3D 360 VR content (physically or via dedicated user input means) displayed on an HMD. + +![Figure 4.2-2: 6DoF diagram showing a person standing with arrows indicating Up, Down, Left, Right, Forward, Backward, Yaw, Pitch, and Roll rotation axes.](d3f6de4fe9f9138fc6afc584b5104433_img.jpg) + +A diagram of a person standing, illustrating the six degrees of freedom (6DoF) for head movement. The person is shown from a front view. Three curved arrows indicate the rotational axes: 'Yaw' (vertical axis), 'Pitch' (horizontal axis), and 'Roll' (diagonal axis). Six straight arrows indicate the translational axes: 'Up' (vertical), 'Down' (vertical), 'Left' (horizontal), 'Right' (horizontal), 'Forward' (depth), and 'Backward' (depth). A small 3D icon of a head is shown at the bottom right. + +Figure 4.2-2: 6DoF diagram showing a person standing with arrows indicating Up, Down, Left, Right, Forward, Backward, Yaw, Pitch, and Roll rotation axes. + +Figure 4.2-2: 6DoF + +An **XR View** describes a single view into an XR scene for a given time. Each view corresponds to a display or portion of a display used by an XR device to present the portion of the scene to the user. + +An **XR Viewport** describes a viewport, or a rectangular region, of a graphics surface. The XR viewport corresponds to the projection of the XR View onto a target display. An XR viewport is predominantly defined by the width and height of the rectangular dimensions of the viewport. + +An **XR Pose** describes a *position* and *orientation* in space relative to an XR Space. An essential element of XR is the spatial tracking of the viewer pose. + +## 4.3 Capture, Encoding and Delivery + +### 4.3.1 Video + +XR content may be represented in different formats, e.g. panoramas or spheres depending on the capabilities of the capture systems. Since modern video coding standards are not designed to handle spherical content. Projection is used for conversion of a spherical (or 360°) video into a two-dimensional rectangular video before the encoding stage. After projection, the obtained two-dimensional rectangular image can be partitioned into regions (e.g. front, right, left, back, top, bottom) that can be rearranged to generate "packed" frames to increase coding efficiency or viewport dependent stream arrangement. + +There are mainly three approaches that can be considered for 360 video delivery (see TR 26.918 [5]): + +- Single stream approach: the single stream approach consists in providing the full 360 video and showing the interesting part only. Solutions that lie within this group have the drawback that either they may not be scalable + +or they may impose a big challenge in terms of required network resources (high bitrate of high resolution video) and required processing at the client side (decode a very high resolution video). + +- Multi-stream approach: the multi-stream approach consists of encoding several streams, each of them emphasizing a given viewport and making them available for the receiver, so that the receiver decides which stream is delivered at each time instance. +- Tiled stream approach: the tiled stream approach consists in emphasizing the current user viewport through transmitting non-viewport samples with decreased resolution. The tiles can be provided as one common bitstream (using motion-constrained HEVC tiles) or as separate video streams. + +In modern video codecs (see S4-220505 [13]): + +- Complex prediction structures are used that take into account application constraints, encoding complexity, latency and dynamic decisions in the encoding. This may result in irregularities, for example based on sequence properties. In particular for low-latency delivery with error resiliency, different flavours of encoding operations are in use, and the concept of I, P and B pictures is not generally applicable. +- All PDUs in a PDU Set are needed by the application layer to use the corresponding unit of information in some implementations; while in some others, receivers may use the data up to the first lost fragmentation unit to recover at least parts of the video data and apply error concealment afterward. +- Furthermore, in motion-compensated predicted video decoding, some frames refer to other frames based on the video encoding configuration but also based on dynamic operational decisions. As a consequence, a PDU Set may "depend" on previously received PDU Sets. However, such dependencies do not necessarily result in discarding dependent information units. + +### 4.3.2 Audio + +For Audio, we can distinguish channel-based and object-based representations (see TR 26.918 [5]): + +- Channel-based representation using multiple microphones to capture sounds from different directions and post-processing techniques are well known in the industry, as they have been the standard for decades. +- Object-based representations represent a complex auditory scene as a collection of single audio elements, each comprising an audio waveform and a set of associated parameters or metadata. The metadata embody the artistic intent by specifying the transformation of each of the audio elements to playback by the final reproduction system. Sound objects generally use monophonic audio tracks that have been recorded or synthesized through a process of sound design. These sound elements can be further manipulated, so as to be positioned in a horizontal plane around the listener, or in full three-dimensional space using positional metadata. + +## 4.4 XR Engines and Rendering + +XR engines provide a middleware that abstracts hardware and software functionalities for developers of XR applications (see TR 26.928 [7]). Typical components include a rendering engine for graphics, an audio engine for sound, and a physics engine for emulating the laws of physics. In the remainder of this Technical Report, the term *XR engine* is used to provide any type of typical XR functionalities as mentioned above. + +The processing of an XR engine is not exclusively carried out in the device GPU. In power and resource constrained devices, it can be assisted or split across the network through edge computing (see TR 22.842 [2]): the UE sends the sensor data in uplink direction to the cloud side in a real time manner and when the cloud side receives the sensor data, it performs rendering computing and produces the multimedia data and then sends back to the user devices for display. This is where NR can play an essential role. + +## 4.5 Characteristics and Requirements + +### 4.5.1 General + +In general, the RTP layer can handle out-of-sequence reception of RTP packets, and some codecs even require it for good operations (instead of having to cope with increased delays to satisfy in-sequence delivery). Thus, a mode of + +operation where the lower-layers on the receiver side do not always enforce in-sequence delivery to upper layers is preferred (see S4aR230035 [17]). + +Other than that, it is difficult to identify characteristics common for different XR applications since they heavily depend on the application choices, such as the application itself, the codec in use, the data formats and the encoding operation (see S4-220505 [13]). In particular, low-latency XR and cloud gaming video services such as Split-Rendering or Cloud Gaming typically would not use the traditional coding structure with a fixed Group of Picture (GOP). In addition, the field of low-latency video delivery is undergoing heavy innovation and new coding methods may be established frequently. Thus, the traffic characteristics and requirements derived from the work done in SA4 (TR 26.926 [6] and TR 26.928 [7]) and listed below, can only be used as a baseline when specific examples for XR traffic characteristics are needed – bearing in mind that they are not universally applicable for all XR applications. + +### 4.5.2 Video + +The **frame rate** for XR video varies from 15 frames per second up to 90 or even 120 frames per second, with a typical minimum of 60 for VR (see TR 26.918 [5] and TR 26.926 [6]). + +According to TR 26.918 [5], the **latency** of action of the angular or rotational vestibulo-ocular reflex is known to be of the order of 10 ms or in a range from 7-15 milliseconds and it seems reasonable that this should represent a performance goal for XR systems. This results in a motion-to-photon latency of less than 20 milliseconds, with 10ms being given as a goal. + +Regarding the **bit rates**, between 10 and 200Mbps can be expected for XR depending on frame rate, resolution and codec efficiency (see TR 26.926 [6] and TR 26.928 [7]). + +### 4.5.3 Audio + +According to TR 26.918 [5], due to the relatively slower speed of sound compared to that of light, it is natural that users are more accustomed to, and therefore tolerant of, sound being relatively delayed with respect to the video component than sound being relatively in advance of the video component. Recent studies have led to recommendations of an accuracy of between 15 ms (audio delayed) and 5 ms (audio advanced) for the **synchronization**, with recommended absolute limits of 60 ms (audio delayed) and 40 ms (audio advanced) for broadcast video. + +### 4.5.4 Pose Information + +To maintain a reliable registration of the virtual world with the real world, as well as to ensure accurate tracking of the XR Viewer pose, XR applications require highly accurate, low-latency tracking of the device at about 1kHz sampling frequency. The size of a XR Viewer Pose associated to time, typically results in packets of size in the range of 30-100 bytes, such that the generated data is around several hundred kbit/s if delivered over the network with latency requirements in the range of 10-20ms (see TR 26.928 [7]). + +Repeatedly providing the XR Viewer Pose for the same display time may not necessarily return the same result (the prediction gets increasingly accurate as the information is closer to the time when a prediction is made) and there is a trade-off between providing several XR Viewer Pose for a display time and using the same XR Viewer Pose for several consecutive display times. However, it can be assumed that sending one XR Viewer Pose aligned with the frame rate of the rendered video may be sufficient, for example at 60fps (see S4-221626 [16]). + +NOTE: In case the pose is used for pre-rendering in the network (edge/cloud), an accurate and most recent pose information is preferable. + +Pose information has to be delivered with ultra-high reliability, therefore, similar performance as URLLC is expected i.e. packet loss rate should be lower than 10E-3 for uplink sensor data – see S4-221626 [16]. + +# 5 XR Enhancements for NR + +## 5.1 XR Awareness + +### 5.1.1 General + +In both uplink and downlink, XR-Awareness contributes to optimizations of gNB radio resource scheduling and relies at least on the notions of PDU Set and Data Burst (see TR 23.700-60 [9]): a PDU Set is composed of one or more PDUs carrying the payload of one unit of information generated at the application level (e.g. a frame or video slice), while a Data Burst is a set of data PDUs generated and sent by the application in a short period of time. + +NOTE 1: A Data Burst can be composed of multiple PDUs belonging to one or multiple PDU Sets. During a Data Burst, periods of data transmission inactivity should not be assumed. Although the duration of Data Bursts may vary, it can be assumed that it stays within the same order of magnitude. Also, the arrival time of the first packet of a data burst cannot be provided by 5GC. + +The following information may be provided by the CN to RAN (see TR 23.700-60 [9]): + +- Semi-static information per QoS flow: + - Periodicity for UL and DL traffic of the QoS Flow provided via TSCAI/TSCAC; + - DL Traffic jitter information (e.g. jitter range) associated with each periodicity of the QoS flow provided via TSCAI/TSCAC. + - PDU Set QoS parameters of the QoS flow (i.e. applicable to all PDU sets of the QoS flow) provided by the SMF via NGAP: + - PDU Set Error Rate (PSER): defines an upper bound for a rate of non-congestion related PDU Set losses between RAN and the UE (see TR 23.700-60 [9]). + +NOTE 2: In this release, a PDU set is considered as successfully delivered only when all PDUs of a PDU Set are delivered successfully, and if the PSER is available, the usage of PSER supersedes the usage of PER. + +- PDU Set Delay Budget (PSDB): time between reception of the first PDU (at the UPF in DL, at the UE in UL) and the successful delivery of the last arrived PDU of a PDU Set (at the UE in DL, at the UPF in UL). PSDB is an optional parameter and when provided, the PSDB supersedes the PDB (see TR 23.700-60 [9]). +- PDU Set Integrated Handling Indication (PSIHI): indicates whether all PDUs of the PDU Set are needed for the usage of PDU Set by application layer. +- PDU Set Information and Identification (dynamic information for DL provided by user plane in GTP-U header): + - PDU Set Sequence Number; + - PDU Set Size in bytes (FFS); + - PDU SN within a PDU Set; + - Indication of End PDU of the PDU Set; + - PDU Set Importance (PSI): identifies the relative importance of a PDU Set compared to other PDU Sets within a QoS Flow. RAN may use it for PDU Set level packet discarding in presence of congestion; + - End of Data Burst indication in the header of the last PDU of the Data Burst (optional). + +For the uplink XR traffic, the UE needs to be able to identify PDU Set and Data Bursts dynamically, including PSI, but in-band marking over Uu of PDUs is not needed. Additional potential improvements to enhance the scheduling of uplink resources are given in clause 5.3.2. + +When the PSIHI is set for a QoS flow, as soon as one PDU of a PDU set is known to be lost, the remaining PDUs of that PDU Set can be considered as no longer needed by the application and may be subject to discard operation (see clause 5.3.2). + +NOTE 3: It cannot always be assumed that the remaining PDUs are not useful and can safely be discarded. + +NOTE 4: In case of Forward Error Correction (FEC), active discarding of PDUs when assuming that a large enough number of packets have already been transmitted for FEC to recover without the remaining PDUs is not recommended as it might trigger an increase of FEC packets (see S4aV220921 [14]). + +### 5.1.2 Layer 2 Structure + +Depending on how the mapping of PDU Sets onto QoS flows is done in the NAS and how QoS flows are mapped onto DRBs in the AS, we can distinguish the following alternatives (as depicted on Figure 5.1.2-1 below): + +- 111: one-to-one mapping between types of PDU Sets and QoS flows in the NAS and one-to-one mapping between QoS flows and DRBs in the AS. From a Layer 2 structure viewpoint, this alternative is already possible and requires as many DRBs as types of PDU Sets. Providing different QoS for the types of PDU Sets sent in different DRBs is already possible. +- NN1: one-to-one mapping between types of PDU Sets and QoS flows in the NAS and possible multiplexing of QoS flows in one DRB in the AS. From a Layer 2 structure viewpoint, this alternative is already possible but gives each QoS flows multiplexed in a DRB the same QoS. Providing different QoS for the types of PDU Sets (i.e. QoS flows) multiplexed in a single DRB is currently not possible. +- NI1: possible multiplexing of types of PDU Sets in one QoS flow in the NAS and one-to-one mapping between QoS flows and DRBs in the AS. From a Layer 2 structure viewpoint, this alternative is already possible but gives each QoS flow/DRB one QoS. Providing different QoS for the types of PDU Sets multiplexed in a single QoS flow/DRB is currently not possible. +- N1N: possible multiplexing of types of PDU Sets in one QoS flow in the NAS and demultiplexing of types of PDU Sets from one QoS flow on multiple DRBs in the AS. From a Layer 2 structure viewpoint, demultiplexing of types of PDU Sets from one QoS flow onto multiple DRBs is currently not possible. + +NOTE: The multiplexing of several types of PDU sets on the same QoS flow is allowed by the CN. + +![Figure 5.1.2-1: Mapping Alternatives.

For the other alternatives, providing different QoS by splitting PDU sets of one DRB to different RLC bearers will not be possible i.e. that splitting a DRB onto multiple RLC entities will remain limited to existing cases (e.g. duplication). + +In addition, the notion of PDU Set does not impact the granularity of: + +- SDAP SDU handling: SDAP still maps every incoming SDU to a single PDU for a single PDCP entity; +- Retransmissions: HARQ still relies on MAC PDUs and ARQ on RLC PDUs. + +In terms of logical channel prioritisation in uplink, changes due to PDU prioritisation will not be introduced, e.g. delay criteria was considered but agreed not to be pursued further unless fundamental issues are identified. + +## 5.2 Power Saving Techniques + +### 5.2.1 Physical Layer Enhancements + +The evaluation results for proposed and studied power saving enhancement schemes are available in Annex B.2. + +### 5.2.2 Layer 2 Enhancements + +Most XR frame rates (15, 30, 45, 60, 72, 90 and 120fps) correspond to periodicities which are not an integer (66.66, 33.33, 22.22, 16.66, 13.88, 11.11 and 8.33ms respectively).

Whether additional mechanism is required can be further considered with an assumption that all information may not be always available at UE application. +- Signalling of UL traffic arrival information from the UE to the gNB e.g. to cope with jitter in case of tethering (FFS). + +For PDCP discard operation in uplink, the timer-based discard operation (when configured) should apply to all SDUs/PDUs belonging to the same PDU Set. Furthermore, for a PDU Set in a QoS flow for which the PSIHI is set, when one PDU of that PDU set is known to either be lost or associated to a discarded SDU (see clause 5.1.1), all remaining PDUs of that PDU Set could be discarded at the transmitter to free up radio resources. + +In case of congestion, the PSI may be used for PDU set discarding (see clause 5.1.1) and in uplink, a PDU set discard mechanism taking the PSI into account will be introduced. + +In uplink, the usage of Configured Grant brings potential benefits for XR services with the enhancements recommended in clause 5.3.1, while in downlink, enhancements to Semi-Persistent scheduling are not foreseen to bring any benefits. + +NOTE: The layer 2 components of the mechanisms recommended in clause 5.3.1 will be specified. + +# --- 6 Conclusions + +In conclusion of the study, the following enhancements for XR services are recommended: + +- For XR Awareness: + - Provisioning by CN of semi-static information per QoS flow (e.g. PDU set QoS parameters), dynamic information per PDU set (PDU Set information and Identification) and End of Data Burst indication (as per TR 23.700-60 [9]); + - Identifying by UE of PDU Sets, Data bursts and PSI; + - Provisioning by UE of XR traffic assistance information e.g. periodicity, UL traffic arrival information (FFS). +- For Power Saving: + - DRX support of XR frame rates corresponding to non-integer periodicities (through at least semi-static mechanisms e.g. RRC signalling). +- For Capacity Enhancements: + - Multiple CG PUSCH transmission occasions in a period of a single CG PUSCH configuration; + - Dynamic indication of unused CG PUSCH occasion(s) based on UCI by the UE; + - BSR enhancements including at least new BS Table(s); + - Delay reporting of buffered data in uplink; + - Discard operation of PDU Sets. + +# Annex A (informative): Evaluation Methodology + +Rel-17 evaluation methodology for XR power saving and capacity enhancements (see TR 38.838 [8]) is used as the baseline evaluation methodology for UE power saving and capacity evaluation of Rel-18 XR. + +System capacity is identified as KPI for capacity study, which is defined as the maximum number of users per cell with at least Y % of UEs being satisfied.

Due to large XR video frame as per 38.838, resources in a single slot may be not enough to convey all the data of a frame, resulting in resource allocation spanning more than one slot. Thereby, in this clause, multi-PDSCH scheduling by a single DCI is evaluated to transmit XR video frame over multiple slots. + +The performance of single-PDSCH scheduling, where X symbol(s) are always reserved for PDCCH transmission in each slot (scheme 1.1 in Tables B.1.1-1,2,3) has been compared against various schemes for multi-PDSCH scheduling. Particularly, the following schemes, where multi-PDSCH is scheduled by a single DCI, have been evaluated: + +- Scheme 1.2: Multi-PDSCH scheduling, where unoccupied CORESET in a slot can be re-used for PDSCH transmission. +- Scheme 1.3: Multi-PDSCH scheduling, where X symbol(s) are always reserved for PDCCH transmission in each slot. +- Scheme 1.4: Multi-PDSCH scheduling with FDRA enhancement - more than one FDRA indication is contained in the scheduling DCI, each of which is applied to one or more scheduled PDSCH. +- Scheme 1.5: Multi-PDSCH scheduling enhancement with early HARQ-ACK feedback - multiple PUCCHs may be considered where HARQ-ACK for the earlier PDSCH(s) can be reported earlier than the later PDSCH(s) scheduled by the same DCI, to reduce latency of HARQ-ACK feedback. +- Scheme 1.6: Multi-PDSCH scheduling where single PDCCH schedules up to 4 PDSCHs and full flexibility in terms of resource (RB allocation) as well as MCS for each of the 4 PDSCHs. +- Scheme 1.7: Multi-PDSCH scheduling, where X symbols per slot are used for PDCCH if there is at least one UE that needs to be scheduled with first TB out of multiple TBs and 0 symbols per slot are used for PDCCH if no UE with the first TB out of multiple TBs needs to be scheduled. + +The performance results of the above schemes are reported in Table B.1.1-1, Table B.1.1-2, Table B.1.1-3 in terms of the ratio of satisfied users. + +Table B.1.1-1: FR1, DL, InH, VR/AR and Cloud Gaming at 60 FPS + +| Source | Tdoc Source | Scheme | TDD form at | SU/MU-MIMO | Data rate (Mbps) | PDB (ms) | Capacity (UEs/cell) | C1=floor (Capacity) | % of satisfied UEs when #UEs/cell =C1 | Notes | +|-----------------------|-------------|---------|-------------|------------|------------------|----------|---------------------|---------------------|---------------------------------------|------------| +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.1* | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 9.8 | 9 | 96.61% | Note 1,3 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 6.08 | 6 | 91.67% | | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.1** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 8.16 | 8 | 91.07% | Note 1,3 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 4.66 | 4 | 97.22% | | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.1*** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 10.25 | 10 | 93.06% | Note 1,3 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.2* | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 10.37 | 10 | 95% | Note 1,2,3 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 6.27 | 6 | 94.91% | | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.2** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 9.58 | 9 | 95.14% | Note 1,2,3 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 5.57 | 5 | 96.67% | | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.2*** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 10.1 | 10 | 91.28% | Note 1,2,3 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.3* | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 8.81 | 8 | 93.89% | Note 1,3 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.3** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 7.25 | 7 | 92.02% | Note 1,3 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.3*** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 9.68 | 9 | 98.37% | Note 1,3 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.4* | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 11.09 | 11 | 90.8% | Note 1,2 | +| Source [vivo] | R1-2208661 | 1.5* | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 10.59 | 10 | 95.72% | Note 1,2 | +| Source [InterDigital] | R1-2209658 | 1.1** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 5.3 | 5 | 94% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 3.1 | 3 | 91.5% | | +| Source [InterDigital] | R1-2209658 | 1.1** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 15 | 7.2 | 7 | 94.5% | Note 1 | +| Source [InterDigital] | R1-2209658 | 1.6**** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 7.8 | 7 | 97% | Note 1,2 | +| | | | | | 45 | | 4.1 | 4 | 91% | | +| Source [InterDigital] | R1-2209658 | 1.6**** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 15 | 10 | 10 | 100% | Note 1,2 | +| Source [ZTE] | R1-2209198 | 1.1** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 9.1 | 9 | 91% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | 60 | | 3.4 | 3 | 97% | | +| Source [ZTE] | R1-2209198 | 1.7** | DDD SU | SU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 7.9 | 7 | 96% | Note 1,2,4 | +| | | | | | 60 | | 3.7 | 3 | 99% | | + +NOTE 1: BS antenna parameters: 32TxRUs, (M, N, P, Mg, Ng;

In TDD system, channel UL-DL reciprocity is utilized to obtain DL channel state information for improved performance of single-cell (non-cooperative) MU-MIMO. However, inter-cell interference is still the bottleneck that limits further capacity improvement. + +The performance of MU-MIMO with zero forcing precoding (scheme 2.1 in Tables B.1.2-1,2) has been compared against Cooperative MIMO with DL interference probing (scheme 2.2 in Tables B.1.2-1,2). + +Scheme 2.2: Cooperative MIMO with DL interference probing via SRS and precoding via bi-directional training (BiT), is the scheme where SRS triggering and transmission are enhanced to directly reflect DL interference spatial information (utilizing UL-DL reciprocity). Each gNB performs its own (MU) scheduling and instructs the scheduled UEs to sound on the scheduled PRBs. Then by TDD reciprocity, a gNB seeing strong UL interference from a certain + +spatial direction on the SRS resources (for example, via estimating the UL spatial covariance matrix of interference signals) implies that in DL transmission the gNB will cause strong interference to UE(s) in that direction. The gNB can then adjust the precoding for DL interference avoidance during the PDSCH transmissions. Each gNB measures the corresponding UL SRS resources and adjusts its DL precoding accordingly to achieve multi-cell DL interference coordination/avoidance in a distributed way, and hence the so-called 'Bi-directional Training' (BiT). + +The performance results are reported in B.1.2-1 and B.1.2-2 in terms of the ratio of satisfied users. + +**Table B.1.2-1: FR1, DL, DU, VR/AR and Cloud Gaming at 60 FPS** + +| Source | Tdoc Source | Scheme | TDD form at | SU/MU-MIMO | Data rate (Mbps) | PDB (ms) | Capacity (UEs/cell) | C1=floor (Capacity) | % of satisfied UEs when #UEs/cell =C1 | Notes | +|---------------------|-------------|--------|-------------|------------|------------------|----------|---------------------|---------------------|---------------------------------------|--------| +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 12.2 | 12 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 17.4 | 17 | 94% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 16.9 | 16 | 91% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 21.7 | 21 | 92% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 21.7 | 21 | 91% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 27.1 | 27 | 91% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 25.8 | 25 | 91% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 30.1 | 30 | 91% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 8 | 8 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 12.7 | 12 | 96% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 13.1 | 13 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 16.9 | 16 | 95% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 13.7 | 13 | 92% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 21.5 | 21 | 93% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 19.9 | 19 | 93% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 25.6 | 25 | 93% | | + +NOTE 1: BS antenna parameters: 64TxRUs, (M, N, P, Mg, Ng; Mp, Np) = (8,8,2,1,1:4,8). + +**Table B.1.2-2: FR1, DL, UMa, VR/AR and Cloud Gaming at 60 FPS** + +| Source | Tdoc Source | Scheme | TDD form at | SU/MU-MIMO | Data rate (Mbps) | PDB (ms) | Capacity (UEs/cell) | C1=floor (Capacity) | % of satisfied UEs when #UEs/cell =C1 | Notes | +|---------------------|-------------|--------|-------------|------------|------------------|----------|---------------------|---------------------|---------------------------------------|--------| +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 7 | 7 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 9.7 | 9 | 93% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 9 | 9 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 11.6 | 11 | 92% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 11.4 | 11 | 94% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 14.2 | 14 | 91% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD SU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 13.2 | 13 | 92% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 16 | 16 | 90% | | +| Source [Future wei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 5.2 | 5 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 6.8 | 6 | 94% | | +| Source [Future | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 45 | 10 | 6.6 | 6 | 93% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 9.4 | 9 | 91% | | + +| | | | | | | | | | | | +|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------|-----|--------|---------|----|----|------|----|-----|--------| +| Source [Futurewei] | R1-2208377 | 2.1 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 8.8 | 8 | 90% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 11.4 | 11 | 94% | | +| Source [Futurewei] | R1-2208377 | 2.2 | DDD UU | MU-MIMO | 30 | 10 | 10.4 | 10 | 92% | Note 1 | +| | | | | | | 15 | 13.3 | 13 | 93% | | +| NOTE 1: BS antenna parameters: 64TxRUs, (M, N, P, Mg, Ng; Mp, Np) = (8,8,2,1,1:4,8). | | | | | | | | | | | + +Based on the evaluation results in Table B.1.2-1 and Table B.1.2-2, the following observations can be made: + +- For FR1, DU, DL, with 100MHz bandwidth for VR/AR single-stream traffic model, 30Mbps, 10ms PDB, 60 FPS, with MU-MIMO, 64TxRU and DDDSU, it is observed from Source [Futurewei] that the capacity is increased from 21.7 UEs per cell with MU-MIMO and zero forcing precoding to 25.8 UEs per cell with Cooperative MIMO via SRS enhancements (capacity gain is 19%).

HARQ allows to recover transport blocks that are not successfully decoded by means of retransmissions.

Particularly, the following schemes have been evaluated: + +- Scheme 6.1.1: DG scheduling with SR followed by UL grant with BSR and data. It is assumed that an SR is triggered upon arrival of a new XR packet in the UE buffer. An UL resource is then granted to the UE to transmit BSR and a number of UL data. A periodicity of SR and a size of initial UL grant may vary and are indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.1.2: DG scheduling with SR followed by UL grant with BSR only. A periodicity of SR may vary and is indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.2: Pre-scheduling dynamic grant: The scheduling is based on dynamic grants where it is assumed that the network is provided with XR traffic periodicity. An initial grant to the UE when its traffic is expected is transmitted (implementation-based learning) without using SR. A size of initial UL grant may vary and is indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.3: Dynamic scheduling with genie BSR (DG with genie BSR): The scheduling is based on dynamic grants where it is assumed BSR is available with zero delay at the scheduler when a new XR packet arrives in the UE buffer, to be used for indicating UL grants to the UE. Hence, in this case, no SR or BSR delay is assumed. + +- Scheme 6.4: Single CG configuration, where single PUSCH occasion per CG period is pre-configured with certain periodicity without relying on SR. In this scheme no scheduling delay is assumed. CG periodicity may vary and is indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.5.1: Multiple CG configurations, where multiple PUSCH occasions per CG period are pre-configured with certain periodicity without relying on SR. In this scheme no scheduling delay is assumed. CG periodicity may vary and is indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.5.2: Multiple CG configurations, where multiple PUSCH occasions per CG period are pre-configured with certain periodicity without relying on SR. In this scheme scheduling delay for scheduling more packets with DG is assumed as 2.5 ms. CG periodicity may vary and is indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.6.1: Hybrid CG+DG scheduling – the scheduling is based on a combined use of configured and dynamic grants. SR resources are not used. Instead, CG resources are configured with a certain size in UL slot in order to transmit BSR and data when a new XR packet arrives. Whenever a new XR packet arrives in the UE buffer, the UE uses the nearest possible CG PUSCH occasion for BSR transmission and possibly some amount of data. The network can thus use the BSR to provide dynamic grants for the following data transmission. CG periodicity and size of CG grant may vary and are indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.6.2: Hybrid CG+DG scheduling – the scheduling is based on a combined use of configured and dynamic grants. SR resources are not used. Instead, CG resources are configured with a certain size in order to transmit BSR only when a new XR packet arrives. It is assumed that one PUSCH occasion per CG period is pre-configured with certain periodicity to align PUSCH occasions with XR packets. Whenever a new XR packet arrives in the UE buffer, the UE uses the nearest possible CG PUSCH occasion for BSR transmission. The network can thus use the BSR to provide dynamic grants for the corresponding data scheduling. CG periodicity and size of CG grant may vary and are indicated separately in Table B.1.6-1, Table B.1.6-2, Table B.1.6-3. +- Scheme 6.6.3: Hybrid CG+DG scheduling – the scheduling is based on a combined use of configured and dynamic grants. SR resources are not used. Instead, CG resources are configured with a certain size in UL slot in order to transmit BSR and data when a new XR packet arrives. Whenever a new XR packet arrives in the UE's buffer, the UE uses the nearest possible CG PUSCH occasion for BSR transmission and possibly some amount of data. The network can thus use the BSR to provide dynamic grants for the following data transmission. The PDCCH monitoring window for the dynamic grant is pre-configured and associated with the CG PUSCH occasion in each CG period. The enhanced BSR that the BSR report will be triggered at the first used CG PUSCH occasion in each CG period to indicate to the gNB the remaining packet size is assumed. If the BSR is reported by the UE with the status "not empty", the UE would monitor PDCCH in the subsequent slots for dynamic grant after XR packet transmission with the CG resource, in which the dynamic grant is used to schedule the remaining data of XR packet. If the BSR is reported by the UE with the status "empty", the UE would not monitor PDCCH in the subsequent slots of the PDCCH monitoring window for XR packet transmission. Furthermore, if the XR packets are completely transmitted during the monitoring window, the UE can be indicated to go to sleep. If the XR packets arrive during the monitoring window, the UE can be indicated to skip the PDCCH monitoring until the packets arrive.

RRM measurements + +This clause captures the capacity performance evaluation results with and without intra- and inter frequency RRM measurement restrictions. Scheduling restrictions apply for the UEs during time-intervals where it is performing intra-frequency RRM measurements at FR2, or gap assisted inter-frequency RRM measurements. Such scheduling restrictions does not allow to transmit PUCCH/PUSCH/SRS or receive PDCCH/PDSCH/CSI-RS. When XR frame arrival collides with RRM measurements, the XR frame will be delayed for the duration of SMTC window or measurement gap (MG). + +The performance with SMTC/MG scheduling restrictions (scheme 7.2 and 7.4 in Table B.1.7-1 and Table B.1.7-2) has been compared against no SMTC/MG scheduling restrictions as well as with adaptation of MG period. Particularly, the following schemes have been evaluated: + +- Scheme 7.1: Without SMTC scheduling restrictions. In this scheme, no scheduling restrictions for FR2 intra-frequency measurements were assumed. This can be realized via gNB-2-UE signalling to configure the UE with time-mask where it shall always prioritize PDCCH/PDSCH decoding and/or PUSCH transmission in line with XR traffic, even if colliding with SMTC windows. Alternatively, the UE-to-gNB signalling to make the gNB scheduler aware of when *s-MeasureConfig* induced scheduling restrictions apply could be applied. +- Scheme 7.2: With SMTC scheduling restrictions. In this scheme, scheduling restrictions every 20 ms time period for an SMTC window of 5 ms for FR2 intra-frequency measurements were assumed. In case the SMTC windows with scheduling restrictions collide with time periods where the gNB would need to schedule the XR transmission, XR frame transmission will be delayed. +- Scheme 7.3: No scheduling restrictions during measurement gap. In this scheme, no scheduling restrictions during measurement gap for inter-frequency measurements were assumed. +- Scheme 7.4: With scheduling restrictions during measurement gap. In this scheme, scheduling restrictions for the duration of measurement gap length of 6 ms are applied. Measurement gaps (MG) are configured to allow UE to do inter-frequency neighbour cell measurement and the corresponding RF tuning for RRM purposes (e.g. mobility, load balancing, CA set-up). In case the MG with scheduling restrictions collide with time periods where the gNB would need to schedule the XR transmission, XR frame transmission will be delayed. +- Scheme 7.5.1: Adaptation of MG period. The MG period is adapted to be 2 times when PCell RSRP is 2dB better than the best neighbour cell and 4 times when PCell RSRP is 4dB better than the best neighbour cell.

RAN2-specific solutions are not precluded (even if RAN1 hasn't discussed them before). +- Enhancement to SPS/CG should be justified for XR scheduling and should be evaluated against dynamic grant (DG) scheduling which should be considered as baseline.

Other solutions are not precluded and can be further discussed. +- Introduce new BS table(s) to reduce the quantisation errors (e.g. for high bit rates). FFS how new BSR tables are created and how they impact BSR formats (can be discussed in WI phase). +- Delay information consists of at least "remaining time". +- RAN2 considers a delay information is useful for XR. FFS if dynamic reporting from UE to network (e.g. via BSR) is needed, or whether PSDB is sufficient. If we have delay information, it needs to distinguish how much data is buffered for which delay value. Stage-3 details (e.g. what's contained, how the triggering is done) can be discussed in the WI phase. +- If we have delay information reporting, RAN2 aims to define how the UE determines the "remaining time" in the delay information. +- Current CG configurations can be reused for UL XR traffic. FFS if enhancements are needed (RAN1 is already discussing something).

FFS how this is modelled in PDCP specification, can be discussed in WI phase. +- RAN2 aims to allow XR frame rates that correspond to non-integer periodicities in at least semi-static manner (e.g. RRC). Details can be left to WI phase. +- RAN2 thinks we need one or more additional BSR table(s) for XR. FFS whether these are static (=specified) or dynamic (e.g. generated, differs according to some RRC parameter), can be discussed in WI phase. +- RAN2 will introduce data volume information associated with delay information (e.g. remaining time) in a MAC CE. FFS if this is extension of BSR or new format. FFS how to do that (e.g. what exactly is reported) and how to ensure this information is up-to-date e.g. considering UL scheduling delay. +- RAN2 needs to discuss additional BSR triggering conditions to allow timely availability of buffer status information at gNB. This can be discussed in WI phase. +- RAN2 sees some benefit from CG to XR services. RAN2 will address enhancements triggered by RAN1 work. +- RAN2 agrees some assistance information can be beneficial (e.g. periodicity, packet size). RAN2 assumes baseline could be TSCAI (pending SA2 conclusions), can discuss during WI phase whether something additional is needed on top of that. If any assistance information is needed, its definition should be standardized. +- RAN2 thinks all information may not be always available at UE application. + +## --- C.4 RAN2#121 + +Agreements from RAN2#121 meeting: + +- RAN2 thinks that how PSER is enforced is up to network implementation. +- Introduce UL PDU Set Importance. How UE derives this will be handled in UE implementation. +- Can indicate that in RAN2 considers PDU set concept applicable to both UL and DL in LS to SA2. +- RAN2 thinks UL jitter may be present for XR (e.g. for tethering use cases). It is unclear how network would use UL jitter information (depends on what would be signalled and would anyway be up to network implementation). +- RAN2 intends to support tethering use case for XR. This may require signalling of some UL traffic arrival information from UE to network. +- Since we already agreed to not support delay-aware LCP, RAN2 aims not to introduce changes to LCP due to PDU prioritization. +- RAN2 thinks PSI can be useful for PDU set-based discard. RAN2 aims to introduce a mechanism to allow UE to handle discarding of packets with different PSI in case of congestion. FFS for other cases. +- Support of RLC bearer splitting should be limited to existing cases (e.g. PDCP duplication), no new XR-specific functionality. + +# Annex D (informative): Change history + +| Change history | | | | | | | | +|----------------|-------------|------------|----|-----|-----|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------| +| Date | Meeting | TDoc | CR | Rev | Cat | Subject/Comment | New version | +| 2022-04 | RAN1#109 | R1-2204673 | | | | Initial Skeleton. | 0.0.1 | +| 2022-08 | RAN2#119 | R2-2207373 | | | | Initial Skeleton. | 0.0.1 | +| 2022-08 | RAN2#119 | R2-2207374 | | | | Updated Structure. | 0.0.2 | +| 2022-08 | RAN2#119 | R2-2208748 | | | | First Endorsed Baseline. | 0.1.0 | +| 2022-08 | RAN2#119 | R2-2208749 | | | | Table of Content updated. | 0.1.1 | +| 2022-09 | RAN2#119 | R2-2209220 | | | | Overview and first RAN2 agreements included. | 0.2.0 | +| 2022-10 | RAN2#119bis | R2-2210814 | | | | Relevant definitions from 23.700-60 included

The purpose of this TR is to further optimize and improve the working procedure for specifying band combination. A technical report will be created to collect the rules of band combination during the timescale of Rel-18 so as to improve the efficiency of band combination specifying and the quality of specifications. The dependency and applicability for RF requirements among different features for the same spectrum combination to reduce the redundant tests will also be investigated in the TR. The valid rules and valuable guidelines for requesting and specifying band combinations in Rel-17 TR 38.862 [7] are captured in the TR. + +# 2 References + +The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. + +- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific. +- For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. +- For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.

If a draft CR or TP is depending on approval of lower order fallbacks submitted at the same meeting, this need to be clearly mentioned in the cover sheet of the draft CR or in the heading of the TP. + +#5 The Block/Approval procedure is applicable to the band combinations in one week before formal RAN4#X meeting, if there is no general issues observed. + +#6 The contributions will be discussed during RAN4#X meeting. If there are no technical concerns and if all the needed fallbacks are completed, the band combinations can be approved. And the final decision will be made by chairman. + +#7 If the contributions are approved or endorsed, the corresponding band combinations should be captured into the big CRs and/or TRs by rapporteurs. Note: The big CR is an official CR which is used to capture all the corrections for one specification by rapporteur under basket WI. + +#8 Email approval can be used for the big CRs and/or TRs in one week after formal RAN4#X meeting. + +#9 The status of band combinations should be shared by contact person after formal RAN4#X meeting. + +#10 The status of band combinations should be captured into the WID and/or SR by rapporteurs. + +#11 RAN #Y will approve the big CRs and revised WIDs. + +#12 The agreed band combinations will be introduced into the specification in next version. + +![Flowchart illustrating the workflow on the introduction of band combinations for block approval.

Then the combination may be misinterpreted, not taken into account when implementing combinations in BS or UEs or even removed from specs or requests. Also automated processing of the tables will become difficult with too many bugs. + +Generally the notation of band combinations starts with the type of the configuration (mainly CA or DC), followed by one list (either LTE or NR) or two lists (first LTE, then NR) of bands with bandwidths. The following types of band combinations are defined in 3GPP specifications: + +Carrier Aggregation: Starts with “CA\_” as the first three characters. Then either a list of LTE or NR carriers is following, where the carriers or bands are always separated by “-”. LTE and NR carriers cannot be combined, that would be a DC combination. Examples: + +- CA\_1A-2A (LTE) +- CA\_n1A-n2A (NR) +- Examples for wrong notations: CA\_1A\_2A (“\_” instead of “-” between the carriers/bands), CA-1A-2A (no “\_” but “-” after “CA”), CA\_1A\_n2A (this would need to be a DC combination) +- NOTE: LTE examples are provided for information only + +Dual Connectivity: Starts with “DC\_” as the first three characters, then for EN-DC configurations followed by the list of LTE carriers, a “\_” as separation between the LTE and NR carriers and then the list of NR carriers. For NE-DC configurations the list begins with NR carriers, a “\_” as separation between the NR and LTE carriers, and then the list of LTE carriers. There are exceptions for SUL EN-DC combinations, which separate the LTE and NR carriers by “\_SUL\_” instead of “\_”, and contiguous intra-band EN-DC combinations using “(n)” instead of “\_” and the “n” of the first NR band in the list. DC configurations within LTE or NR just list the carriers after “DC\_”. For EN-DC combinations for V2X the “DC\_” at the beginning is replaced by “V2X\_”, even if it is still an EN-DC combination. Examples: + +- DC\_1A\_n2A (EN-DC) +- DC\_1A-2A (LTE-DC) +- DC\_n1A-n2A (NR-DC) +- DC\_(n)1AA (EN-DC with contiguous intra-band LTE and NR carriers) +- DC\_1(n)AA (NE-DC with contiguous intra-band NR and LTE carriers) +- DC\_1A-(n)2AA (EN-DC with one LTE carrier followed by contiguous intra-band LTE and NR carriers) +- DC\_2(n)AA-1A (NE-DC with one LTE carrier followed by contiguous intra-band NR and LTE carriers) +- DC\_n78A\_1A-3A (NE-DC) +- Examples for wrong notations: DC\_1A-n2A (“-” instead of “\_” between the LTE and NR carriers/bands for EN-DC combinations), DC-1A-2A (no “\_” but “-” after “DC”), DC\_n1A\_n2A (“\_” instead of “-” between the NR carriers/bands for NR-DC combinations) + +Supplementary UL: NR SA configurations start with “SUL\_” as the first four characters for SUL band combination with single carrier, as it is only NR without LTE, if it is within an EN-DC combination there is a “\_SUL\_” between the LTE and the NR part instead of the “\_SUL\_” at the beginning, using the usual “DC\_” as the first characters. For uplink EN-DC configuration, if TDM operation of uplink sharing from UE perspective (ULSUP) is chosen, the notation of “\_ULSUP-TDM\_” is used. The FDM operation of uplink sharing from UE perspective is not supported in current specifications. If SUL band combination with intra-band contiguous CA, intra-band non-contiguous CA or inter-band CA, the notation starts with “CA\_” as the first three characters. Examples: + +- SUL\_n2A-n80A (n80 being the SUL band) +- CA\_n41C-n80A (n80 being the SUL band) +- CA\_n78(2A)-n86A (n86 being the SUL band) +- CA\_n1A\_n78A-n81A (n81 being the SUL band) + +- DC\_1A\_SUL\_n2A-n80A (n80 being the SUL band) +- DC\_3A\_n80A\_ULSUP-TDM\_n78A (TDM operation on SUL\_n78-n80) + +In summary the following types and notations are defined: + +- CA\_ ...: A Carrier Aggregation configuration followed by the list of either LTE or NR carriers, or SUL band combination with NR intra-band contiguous, non-contiguous or inter-band CA carriers. +- DC\_ ...: A Dual Connectivity configuration followed by the list of either LTE carriers for LTE-DC or NR carriers for NR-DC or for EN-DC first LTE carriers, then “\_” and the NR carriers or for NE-DC first NR carriers, then “\_” and the LTE carriers. In case of a DC combination for V2X, the “DC\_” is replaced with “V2X\_”. +- SUL\_ ...: A Carrier Aggregation configuration including one SUL band followed by a single NR carrier. In case of a DC configuration with SUL, the “SUL\_” is shifted behind the “\_” separating the LTE and NR carriers and the configuration starts with “DC\_” as usual for DC configurations. In case of an uplink EN-DC configuration with SUL, “\_ULSUP-TDM\_” is applied for TDM operation for uplink sharing from UE perspective. + +## 6.1A Notation of lists of bands and bandwidths within a configuration + +### 6.1A.1 Band numbers + +A list of LTE or NR carriers within a CA or DC configuration is either a single or multiple LTE or NR carriers. The simplest one is just a single carrier. It consists of the band number followed by the bandwidth class, which is “A” for a single carrier. For LTE the band number is just the number of the band, for NR carriers the numerical part of the band notation is preceded by an “n”, indicating this is a NR band, not a LTE band. NR bands above n256 are FR2 bands, below n256 are FR1 bands. The band number is always followed by the bandwidth class, which can be quite complicated for NR combinations with intra-band CA. Bandwidth classes other than “A” indicate multiple carriers in that band. In the list there can be multiple entries for inter-band CA configurations (in LTE also intra-band non-contiguous CA), which are always separated by “-”. The band numbers are sorted in increasing numbers. LTE and NR bands in the same frequency range usually have the same band number. Examples: + +- Notation of a single LTE carrier: 1A, 2A, 3A etc. +- Notation of a single NR carrier: n1A, n2A, n3A etc. +- List of multiple LTE carriers on different bands: 1A-2A-3A. +- List of multiple NR carriers on different bands: n1A-n2A-n3A. + +### 6.1A.2 Bandwidth classes + +##### 6.1A.2.1 Bandwidth classes for LTE + +An entry within the list of carriers always starts with the band number followed by the bandwidth class. In LTE the bandwidth classes (if not “A”) mean this is a contiguous CA configuration with multiple carriers. They are specified in table 5.6A-1 in 36.101 and can range from “A” for a single carrier up to F for 5 carriers. BW class I is specified for 8 carriers, but is not used. Non-contiguous CA combinations are just listing multiple sub-blocks separated by “-”. Examples: + +- CA\_1B: Two contiguously aggregated LTE carriers with 20MHz or less in band 1. +- CA\_2F: Five contiguously aggregated LTE carriers with up to 100MHz in band 2. +- CA\_3A-3A: Two non-contiguously aggregated LTE carriers in band 3 +- CA\_4A-4E: A single carrier followed by a gap and then followed by four contiguously aggregated carriers with up to 80MHz +- A single carrier is no CA configuration as there is nothing aggregated, so there is no CA\_5A, this is just 5A. + +##### 6.1A.2.2 Bandwidth classes for NR + +NR bandwidth classes are much more complicated. Also here an entry within the list of carriers always starts with the band number followed by the bandwidth class. But in NR the bandwidth class includes contiguous and non-contiguous CA and a mixture of contiguous and non-contiguous CA. For contiguous CA the bandwidth classes are specified similar to LTE, but separate for FR1 and FR2. For FR1 contiguous CA BW classes are specified in table 5.3A.5-1 in 38.101-1 ranging from A to O (F is not used), in which the classes M, N and O are applicable for the use with shared spectrum channel access. For FR2 in 5.3A.4-1 in 38.101-2 ranging from A to W(N is not used), and R2 to R12, in which the classes V and W are applicable only for FR2-2 operating bands. The CA bandwidth classes for NR are categorized into different fallback groups (FBG). It is mandatory for a UE to be able to fallback to lower order NR CA bandwidth class configuration within a FBG, and not mandatory for a UE to be able to fallback to lower order NR CA bandwidth class configuration that belong to a different FBG. + +A special kind or BW class specification is when there are intra-band contiguous LTE and NR carriers within an EN-DC combination like DC\_(n)1AA. In this case the LTE and NR carriers within that band are combined to a single entry of the list of carriers starting with (n) indicating that it can be “n” for the NR carrier, or no “n” for the LTE carrier. This is followed by the numerical value of the band (here “1”) and then the contiguous BW class for the LTE part and the contiguous BW class for the NR part. So DC\_(n)1AA means that there is a single carrier for LTE and a single carrier for NR side-by-side contiguously aggregated in band 1. This can be extended by more contiguous carriers on the LTE or NR side or both, for example DC\_(n)41DA means three contiguous carriers for LTE besides a single carrier for NR. This can be extended by other LTE carriers in front of the combination of carriers with (n) or with other NR carriers behind the (n) part, for example DC\_1A-(n)2AA or DC\_(n)2AA-n3A. The (n) part is considered as the last LTE combination in the list or the first NR combination in the list, therefore adding it with a “-” instead of a “.”. For intra-band contiguous NE-DC configuration, instead of (n)X in EN-DC, the notation X(n) is used. In this case, DC\_X(n)yz indicates the contiguous NR Band carriers with channel bandwidth class y in Band nX is followed by the contiguous LTE carries with channel bandwidth z in Band X. For example, DC\_3(n)AA denotes the NE-DC combination of single carrier for NR in Band n3 and single carrier for LTE in Band 3. + +However, the BW class part of a NR configuration also includes non-contiguous intra-band CA. For a combination containing any non-contiguous CA, i.e. a gap between any aggregated carriers, each block of single or contiguously aggregated carriers is called a sub-block, where a sub-block can also consist of the contiguously aggregated carriers as stated above. While in LTE single non-contiguously aggregated carriers are just duplicated like CA\_1A-1A, in NR the number of non-contiguous carriers of a BW class is counted and put in parenthesis with the number of sub-blocks of this type preceding the bandwidth class. Therefore a configuration with two non-contiguous carriers will have a BW class (2A) in NR, so the combination will be named CA\_n1(2A), meaning there are two non-contiguous carriers with BW class A in band n1. + +However, there can also be the combination of contiguous and non-contiguous intra-band CA in NR. In this case the sub-blocks of each BW class are separately counted and added within the brackets. For example if there are in a n260 FR2 CA combination two sub-blocks of BW class “A” (single carriers), three of BW class “G” (two contiguous carriers up to 100MHz) and one of BW class O (two carriers with 50 or 100MHz), the full combination will be named CA\_n260(2A-3G-Q), having 6 sub-blocks with in total 10 carriers. Examples: + +- CA\_n1B: Two contiguously aggregated NR carriers with 100MHz or less in band n1 (FR1). +- CA\_n2D: Three contiguously aggregated NR carriers with up to 300MHz in band n2. +- CA\_n3(2A): Two non-contiguously aggregated NR carriers in band n3 +- CA\_n260G: Two contiguously aggregated NR carriers with 150 or 200MHz in band n260 (FR2). +- CA\_n260M: Eight contiguously aggregated NR carriers with 750 or 800MHz in band n260 (FR2). +- CA\_n260(2A): Two non-contiguously aggregated NR carriers in band n260 with up to 800MHz (2x400MHz) +- CA\_n260(A-M): A single carrier followed by a gap and then followed by eight contiguously aggregated carriers with up to 100MHz each +- CA\_n260(2A-3G-Q): Two single carriers up to 400MHz each, three sub-blocks with two carriers each of 150 or 200MHz per sub-block followed by another sub-block with two carriers of 50 or 100MHz each. + +## 6.1B Rules to be used for the notation of CA or DC configurations + +The following are the rules for generating the configuration notations: + +- Each configuration needs to start with “CA\_”, “DC\_”, “SUL\_” or “V2X\_”. +- DC combinations include a list of LTE carriers first, followed by the list of NR carriers. +- Entries within a list of either LTE carriers or NR carriers need to be separated by “-”, not “\_”. +- The list of LTE carriers and the list of NR carriers within an EN\_DC combination need to be separated by “\_”, for contiguous intra-band EN-DC the two lists are connected with the (n)xxAA like notation, not “\_” (xx is the band number), for contiguous intra-band NE-DC the two lists are connected with the xx(n)AA like notation, not “\_” (xx is the band number). In specific cases “\_SUL\_” connects the two lists. +- Contiguous LTE+NR intra-band carriers within a DC combination are using the notation (n)xxAA (xx is the band number), Contiguous NR+LTE intra-band carriers within a DC combination are using the notation xx(n)AA (xx is the band number). +- No other characters than “A” to “Z”, “0” to “9”, “(”, “)”, “-”, “\_” and “n” are allowed within the notation, especially no spaces “ ”, “/”, “.”, LineFeed, CR, other special characters. +- Entries within the list of carriers need to be sorted in numerical order, i.e. first band n1, then n2, then n3, then n260, i.e. CA\_1A-2A, not CA\_2A-1A, but LTE and NR combinations are separately sorted, i.e. DC\_2A\_n1A, entries with (n) are always between the LTE and NR lists. +- Bandwidth notations are either a single character according to the BW class lists of contiguously aggregated carriers, two of these characters in case of combinations with (n) or for NR non-contiguous intra-band combinations specific expressions listing multiple carriers within “()”. +- Within the “()” of non-contiguous NR combinations there will only be BW class letters for the BW class of contiguous sub-blocks preceded by a number indicating the number of sub-blocks of this BW class, if there are multiple different BW classes they are listed in ascending BW class order separated by “-”. + +Examples of correct notations are as follows: + +- DC\_1A-2A\_n260(A-M) +- DC\_1A-2A-2A-2A\_n3(3A) +- DC\_1A-(n)2AA-n3A +- DC\_1A-2A-3A-4A-5A\_n6A-n260(2A-3G-Q) +- Some incorrect examples we have seen: DC\_1A-2A\_n3A(3A) (no “A” before the bracket); DC\_2A-1A\_n3(3A) (wrong sort order of LTE bands); DC\_1A- 2A\_n260(A-M) (a “ ” (space) between the “-“ and the “2”); DC\_1A-2A\_n260A/G/H/I/J/K/L/M (no “/” allowed within a configuration, multiple configurations not allowed within the notation, use separate configuration notations for each configuration). + +Currently this notation for the CA/DC configurations is used as specified in 36.101 for LTE and 38.101 for NR. However, multiple errors within the specifications have been observed, which motivate the need to define the following rules how to handle the CA/DC configurations in the -101 specs. Below are the general rules how to implement these band combinations within the CA/DC configurations within the tables in clause 5.5: + +- Each cell of the configuration table should contain only one combination of bands in the first column with the exception that combinations having the same bands but different intra-band contiguous BW classes can be listed in the same cell. Also all non-contiguous combinations can be listed in one cell, but separated from the contiguous combinations in another cell. +- In the UL column there shall only be UL configurations that belong to the configurations in the first column. Unfortunately this means that in the UL column there can be higher order configurations than some of the configurations in the first column, however, they cannot be used with such a lower order combination. This was agreed some time ago as a “table simplification”, but creates some hassle as there are UL combinations listed that cannot be supported with the DLs. + +- Multiple configurations with different bandwidth classes shall be separated by pressing the return key, you will see the ¶ sign at the end of the line if you activated the button to view these special characters, no other special characters to separate configuration shall be used. +- There shall be no special characters not belonging to the combinations in any configuration cell, no spaces “ ”, “/”, “.”, or any other special characters. +- If there are notes for a specific configuration, the note shall be using superscript font and added at the end of the configuration list within a cell, not anywhere within the configuration or separated with any other characters, multiple notes shall be separated just by a comma, all in superscript. + +## 6.1C Adding or removing channel BW's in NR CA configurations + +### 6.1C.1 Adding channel BW's in NR CA configurations + +If it is discovered that it was forgotten to define a channel bandwidth when defining a band combination, the correct way is to define a new BCS row for that band combination. Such a definition of a new BCS follows the normally procedures of definitions of new BCS's. + +Preferably no exceptions should be made to the rule above. Exception can only be if all UE vendors can confirm that ... + +- a) no existing UE advertises the affected channel bandwidth (in the channel-BW bitmap) or the affected band combination (in the supportedBandCombinationList), or +- b) all existing UEs that advertise the affected channel bandwidth and the band combination support and accept the configuration of that channel bandwidth in that BC. + +The rule to follow by CR-authors and basket WI rapporteurs: + +- If a channel bandwidth is added to an existing bandwidth combination set and if this channel bandwidth was already defined in Table 5.3.5-1 (“Channel bandwidths for each NR band”) in a previous version of the specification: + - *The change is non-backwards-compatible and needs to be documented on the CR cover page with the wording “The addition of the channel bandwidth XXX to BCS#Y of band combination ABC is intentional and potential non-backwards compatible (NBC) impact have been considered.* + +#### 6.1C.2 Removing channel BW's in NR CA configurations + +##### 6.1C.2.1 Removing of not possible channel BW's + +If it is discovered that a channel bandwidth in a band combination set is defined for a band that is not defined in Table 5.3.5-1 (“Channel bandwidths for each NR band”) it needs to be removed.

Exception can only be if all UE vendors can confirm that ... + +- a) no existing UE advertises the affected channel bandwidth (in the channel-BW bitmap) or the affected band combination (in the supportedBandCombinationList). + +The rule to follow by CR-authors and basket WI rapporteurs: + +- If a channel bandwidth is removed from an existing bandwidth combination set and if this channel bandwidth was already defined in Table 5.3.5-1 (“Channel bandwidths for each NR band”) in a previous version of the specification: + +- *The change is non-backwards-compatible and needs to be documented on the CR cover page with the wording* "The removal of the channel bandwidth XXX to BCS#Y of band combination ABC is intentional and potential non-backwards compatible (NBC) impact have been considered." + +## 6.2 Guidelines on band combination fallbacks + +### 6.2.1 General definition of fallbacks + +In the 36.101 and 38.101 specs thousands of band combinations for LTE, EN-DC, NR-DC... are specified having at least two carriers, but in most cases many more than two carriers. There are already many rules and definitions for these configurations. + +Definitions: + +- A fallback DC, CA or SUL configuration is a configuration, where one of the carriers of the higher order configuration is removed. +- A mandatory fallback is a fallback that is mandatory to be specified in the UE specification and supported by the UE. +- A Fallback Group is specified for contiguous CA, only fallback configurations within the same fallback group need to be supported. + +Explanations and rules: + +- A higher order configuration has generally the same number of fallbacks as it has carriers, i.e. a configuration with 4 carriers has 4 next level fallbacks. +- Example: CA\_n1A-n2A-n3A-n4A has the 4 next level fallbacks CA\_n2A-n3A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n3A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n2A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n2A-n3A, where the first, the second, the third and the fourth carrier have been removed. +- For intra-band CA some of the fallbacks are identical, so that the number of unique fallbacks can be lower than the number of carriers. For contiguous intra-band CA there is only one unique fallback, for non-contiguous intra-band CA as well. For contiguous intra-band configurations removing one of the middle carriers would not result in a valid fallback, since this would transform the contiguous configuration to a non-contiguous configuration. But for the combination of contiguous and non-contiguous intra-band CA there will usually be more than one unique fallback left. +- Example: CA\_n1(3A) would have three fallbacks, where the first, the second or the third carrier would be removed, but in all three cases the resulting fallback is the same: CA\_n1(2A), so we only have one unique fallback configuration left out of the three. +- Example: CA\_n1D would have three fallbacks, where the first, the second or the third carrier would be removed, but in all three cases the resulting fallback is the same: CA\_n1C, so we only have one unique fallback configuration left out of the three. Additionally removing the middle carrier doesn't result in a valid fallback, since it would change the contiguous configuration to a non-contiguous one. +- Example: CA\_n265R12 would have twelve fallbacks, where the first, the second ... twelfth carrier would be removed, but in all twelve cases the resulting fallback is the same: CA\_n265R11, so we only have one unique fallback configuration left out of the twelve. Also here removing one of the middle carrier doesn't result in a valid fallback, since it would change the contiguous configuration to a non-contiguous one. +- Example: CA\_n1(A-C) would have three fallbacks, where the first, the second or the third carrier would be removed, this would result in CA\_n1C, CA\_n1(2A), CA\_n1(2A) as fallbacks, where the last two are duplicates, so in this case we have two unique fallback configurations left out of the three: CA\_n1C and CA\_n1(2A). +- For intra-band contiguous CA we have to follow the fallback groups. Only fallbacks within this group can be used, BW classes outside the fallback group are no legal fallbacks. +- Example: CA\_n1D falls back to CA\_n1C. +- Example: CA\_n1C falls back to CA\_n1A, BUT NOT to CA\_n1B, since this is in a different fallback group. + +- Example: CA\_n265I (FR2) falls back to CA\_n265H, this falls back to CA\_n265G, this falls back to CA\_n265A, NOT to CA\_n265F. +- For combined contiguous and non-contiguous intra-band CA, which is mainly used for FR2, there will be many fallbacks, especially when there is a large number of carriers, but also there some fallbacks after removing a carrier may be duplicates. +- Example: CA\_n265(A-G-H), removing the “A” carrier results in CA\_n265(G-H), removing one of the “G” carriers results in CA\_n265(A-A-H), which will be correctly written as CA\_n265(2A-H), removing one of the “H” carrier will result in CA\_n265(A-G-G), which will be correctly written as CA\_n265(A-2G), so we get three unique configurations out of these six carriers. + +### 6.2.2 Mandatory Fallbacks + +In general all fallbacks need to be specified and supported until we end up at a single carrier. So it is necessary to generate a fallback tree starting at the configuration with the highest number of carriers down to a single carrier. + +- A configuration has as many fallback levels as the highest order combination has carriers. For example a four carrier combination will have four three carrier fallbacks, each of these has three two carrier fallbacks, each of these would end up in single carriers. However, in this chain there will again be some duplicates. + +Example: CA\_n1A-n2A-n3A-n4An has these fallbacks: + +- CA\_n2A-n3A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n3A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n2A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n2A-n3A. + +These four combinations have these two carrier fallbacks (colors as above): + +- CA\_n3A-n4A, CA\_n2A-n4A, CA\_n2A-n3A, CA\_n3A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n3A, CA\_n2A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n2A, CA\_n2A-n3A, CA\_n1A-n3A, CA\_n1A-n2A. + +As we see there are several duplicates, removing these we end up with these second level fallbacks: + +- CA\_n3A-n4A, CA\_n2A-n4A, CA\_n2A-n3A, CA\_n1A-n4A, CA\_n1A-n3A, CA\_n1A-n2A. +- All of these end up in 4 single carriers of n1A, n2A, n3A and n4A. +- This is a recursive action, we first have to check the next lower level fallbacks, then take these as the basis for the next lower level and so on, until we end up with single carriers. +- All fallbacks for these DC, CA or SUL combinations are mandatory to be supported, as long as the corresponding UL is supported as well. + +One relatively simple example of such a combination is DC\_2A\_n261(H-I). But already this simple example generates a fallback tree with 12 fallbacks when going from 8 carriers to a single dual carrier DC combination.

For CA\_n260(2A-2O-Q) for example there is a fallback tree with 46 unique fallback combinations (all duplicates already removed). This combination is already in 38.101, however, most of these fallbacks were initially missing and added later. + +All of these fallbacks have to be specified in 38.101 specs and need to be supported by the UE. + +### 6.2.3 Fallbacks of EN-DC Configurations + +In 38.101-3 we find this general rule on fallbacks for EN-DC combinations: + +*“A terminal which supports an inter-band EN-DC configuration with a certain UL configuration shall support the all lower order DL configurations of the lower order EN-DC combinations, which have this certain UL configuration and the fallbacks of this UL configuration.”* + +Of course this means that we have to support all fallbacks for which this rule is fulfilled. + +This rule is a restriction of the general rule that all fallbacks need to be supported. The reason is that there can be combinations, for which the UL is not supported, of course when there is no UL, also the DL combination doesn't make sense anymore. + +- Assumption: DC\_1A-2A\_n3A is the DL configuration and DC\_1A\_n3A is supported as the UL. + - DC\_1A-2A\_n3A as DL configuration has DC\_1A\_n3A, DC\_2A\_n3A as next level fallbacks. + - The fallback DC\_1A\_n3A has the same UL DC\_1A\_n3A as the higher order combination, therefore this fallback is mandatory to be supported. + - The fallback DC\_2A\_n3A would need DC\_2A\_n3A as the UL, but only DC\_1A\_n3A is supported for the UL of the higher order combination, therefore this fallback is not mandatory to be supported. + +Fallbacks from EN-DC to E-UTRA only or NR only configurations need to be supported as well. For example if we have a configuration DC\_1A-2A-3A\_n4A-n5A of course the constituent LTE combination CA\_1A-2A-3A as well as NR CA\_n4A-n5A need to be specified in 36.101 and 38.101 respectively and it is mandatory to support them, since the EN-DC combination is based on them. + +### 6.2.4 Fallbacks of UL Configurations + +Of course fallbacks of UL configurations need to be specified and supported as well. + +- All fallbacks of UL configurations with higher order need to be supported down to a single carrier. +- Example: UL CA\_n265M needs these UL fallbacks: CA\_n265L, CA\_n265K, CA\_n265J, CA\_n265I, CA\_n265H, CA\_n265G, n265A. +- Example: UL EN-DC DC\_1A\_n265M needs these UL fallbacks: DC\_1A\_n265L, DC\_1A\_n265K, DC\_1A\_n265J, DC\_1A\_n265I, DC\_1A\_n265H, DC\_1A\_n265G, DC\_1A\_n265A. + +Generally there is the rule that UL configurations can only have the same, or less carriers that are part of the DL configuration, as an example it is not allowed to have an UL configuration DC\_1A\_n265M for a DL configuration DC\_1A\_n265H. + +### 6.2.5 Fallback rules for some exceptional cases + +For some band combinations which include SDL bands (e.g. band n75) and/or only DL Scell bands (band combinations including band n7/7 and band n38/38 together), some fallback band combinations which can't be deployed in reality can't be considered as fallbacks. + +For example: + +- DC\_1A\_n75A-n78A: fallback is DC\_1A\_n78A. And DC\_1A\_n75A which can't be deployed in reality can't be considered as fallbacks. All fallbacks of UL configurations with higher order need to be supported down to a single carrier. +- DC\_1A-7A\_n38A-n78A: fallbacks are DC\_1A-7A\_n78A and DC\_1A\_n38A-n78A. DC\_1A-7A\_n38A and DC\_7A\_n38A-78A which can't be deployed in reality can't be considered as fallbacks. +- DL CA\_n1A-n7A-n38A: fallbacks are DL CA\_n1A-n7A and DL CA\_n1A-n38A. DL CA\_n7A-n38A which can't be deployed in reality can't be considered as fallbacks. + +Generally, this special principle can be summarized as below. For a band combinations, if one RAT (LTE part or NR part) of this BC only include SDL band(s) and/or only DL Scell band(s), this BC which can't be deployed in reality can't be considered as fallbacks. + +### 6.2.6 Guidelines on valid CBW for higher order BC depending on fallbacks + +In current RAN4 specifications, for traditional BCS, some new CBWs such as 35MHz/45MHz were added in the higher order combinations but not yet introduced in the corresponding fallback lower order combinations. It results in the inconsistencies and leads some extra maintenance work to remove the CBWs in the higher order combinations that are missing in the lower fallbacks for traditional BCS. The following guidelines on valid CBW for new higher order BC request in traditional BCS from Rel-18 are to be supported. Note that for BCS4 and 5, the guideline does not apply. + +- The per band supported channel bandwidths in a new higher order band combination from Rel-18 with traditional BCS should be a subset of or equal to channel bandwidths supported for the same band in at least one of the corresponding lower order band combination of the BCS. +- Band combination with the supported per channel bandwidths not meeting the above guidance should not be requested. + +## 6.3 Guidelines on delta $T_{IB}$ and $R_{IB}$ due to band combinations + +To optimize the tables of $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ and $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ due to band combinations, a new template for Rel-18 is proposed in clause 8.3.2 in TR 38.862. + +Regarding to the optimized template for $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ and $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ tables, only the configurations having the same component E-UTRA / NR bands can be grouped into one cell (row). For example, in Table 6.3-1 for the $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ of the following inter-band EN-DC configurations, since the component bands are not the same, two rows should be filled separately in the new template. However, for the configurations “DC\_3-7-8\_n1-n78”, “DC\_3-3-7-8\_n1-n78”, “DC\_3-7-7-8\_n1-n78” and “DC\_3-3-7-7-8\_n1-n78” having the same component bands, they should be merged into one cell. + +**Table 6.3-1: Example for $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ for Inter-band EN-DC configurations** + +| Inter-band EN-DC configuration | E-UTRA or NR Band | $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ (dB) | +|--------------------------------|-------------------|------------------------| +| DC_3-7-8_n1-n78 | 3 | 0.6 | +| DC_3-3-7-8_n1-n78 | | | +| DC_3-7-7-8_n1-n78 | | | +| DC_3-3-7-7-8_n1-n78 | | | +| DC_3-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | +| DC_3-3-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | +| DC_3-7-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | +| DC_3-3-7-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | +| | 7 | 0.6 | +| | 8 or n8 | 0.6 | +| | n1 | 0.6 | +| | n78 | 0.8 | + +| Inter-band EN-DC configuration | $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ for E-UTRA band / NR band (dB) 6 | | | | | +|--------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------|-----|-----|-----|-----| +| | Component band in order of bands in configuration 7 | | | | | +| DC_3-7-8_n1-n78 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.8 | +| DC_3-3-7-8_n1-n78 | | | | | | +| DC_3-7-7-8_n1-n78 | | | | | | +| DC_3-3-7-7-8_n1-n78 | | | | | | +| DC_3-7_n1-n8-n78 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.6 | 0.8 | +| DC_3-3-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | | | | +| DC_3-7-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | | | | +| DC_3-3-7-7_n1-n8-n78 | | | | | | + +**Guideline 1: It is supposed that only the configurations having the same component E-UTRA / NR bands can be grouped into one cell (row) for the new $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ and $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ templates.** + +With regard to the values for a band combination in the $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ / $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ table, considering that a statement of ‘Unless otherwise stated, $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ / $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ is set to zero’ having been specified in the general part of specification, it is reasonable to remove the combination in the $\Delta T_{IB,c}$ / $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ table with all component band having the value of ‘-’ (zero). For example in the following $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ Table 6.3-2, the CA combinations CA\_n1-n3-n5, CA\_n1-n3-n18 and CA\_n1-n3-n20 do not need to be listed in the table. + +**Table 6.3-2: Example for $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ for Inter-band CA configurations** + +| Inter-band CA combination | $\Delta R_{IB,c}$ for NR bands (dB) 9 | | | +|---------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|-----|-----| +| | Component band in order of bands in configuration 10 | | | +| CA_n1-n3-n5 | - | - | - | +| CA_n1-n3-n8 | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.5 | +| CA_n1-n3-n18 | - | - | - | +| CA_n1-n3-n20 | - | - | - | + +**Guideline 2: For the band combination with all the component bands having the $\Delta T_{IB,c} / \Delta R_{IB,c}$ values as ‘-’ (zero), there is no need to be listed in the $\Delta T_{IB,c} / \Delta R_{IB,c}$ table.** + +There are some special delta TIB and RIB values for the band combinations having SUL, SDL, immediately close component band, band combination with overlapping component band, and EN-DC combination with LTE LAA component band in the current specifications. However, the denotations for the delta TIB and RIB values for these special constituent band are inconsistent among different band combinations, some of which having the value of “-”, some of which having the value of “N/A”, while some of others having the value of non-zero number. To avoid inconsistencies, the following guideline is applied to the band combinations having special component band. + +**Guideline 3: For the component bands which are special bands such as SDL band, SUL band, immediately close band, band combination with overlapping band, and EN-DC combination with LTE LAA band, etc.** + +- Non-zero value is not allowed for the special bands in the delta TIB/RIB tables. +- If uplink is not supported on a constituted band of the DC/CA band combination, "N/A" is used when deriving the delta T requirements for that constituted band of the band combination. +- If downlink is not supported on a constituted band of the DC/CA band combination, "N/A" is used when deriving the delta R requirements for that constituted band of the band combination. + +## 6.4 Guidelines on simplification for CA configurations + +For CA configurations in the columns for DL and UL CA configurations, all the possible configurations are explicitly listed in the current CA configuration tables. However, the redundancy issue is becoming more and more serious in the CA configuration tables especially when multiple component frequency bands are involved. The permutation of component bands and CA BW classes results in explosive size of CA configuration table. In order to alleviate the workload for Rel-18 basket WID rapporteurs, the following guideline is proposed to CA configuration tables. + +**Guideline 1: There shall be no special characters such as “ ”, “;”, “:”, “/” or any other special character not belonging to the combinations with the exception that the delimiter “/” is allowed in the FR2 part of the uplink configurations. A note as below is suggested to be added at the end of the configuration tables.** + +Note: The delimiter “/” will only be used in the uplink configurations for the sake of simplicity. For example, CA\_nxA-nyA/B/C denotes CA\_nxA-nyA, CA\_nxA-nyB and CA\_nxA-nyC, where nx and ny are two NR bands, ny is a FR2 band and A, B and C are the corresponding bandwidth classes respectively. + +Table 6.4-1: Example for simplified inter-band CA configuration table + +| NR CA configuration | Uplink configuration(*) | NR Band | Channel bandwidth (MHz) (NOTE 1) | Bandwidth combination set | +|---------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------|-------------------------------------------------|---------------------------| +| CA_n2A-n77A-n260A | CA_n2A-n77A

Operators have to go back and create new Bandwidth Combinations Sets for existing band combinations in order to be able to use those new channel bandwidths in NR CA and SUL. To reduce the workload in RAN4, a new WID for creating a new type of BCS was approved in [8]. + +BCS4/BCS5 are allowed to be applied to new band combinations in RAN4 which indicate UE to support up to all of the channel bandwidths for the band in the band combination. BCS4 is release independent to Rel-15 with no new signalling while BCS5 is functionally equivalent to BCS4 except that the new signalling [*supportedMinBandwidthDL/supportedMinBandwidthUL*] introduced in Rel-17 such as the limitation to the supporting channel bandwidth in each band within the band combination would apply, and BCS5 with the signalling [*supportedMinBandwidthDL/supportedMinBandwidthUL*] is allowed for early implementation from Rel-15. For a legacy gNB that was not upgraded to understand BCS4 or BCS5 with the new signalling, it would enable to ignore BCS4 or BCS5 with the new signalling. + +Considering that BCSs are not defined or reported separately for UL and DL for traditional BCSs, there is also no need to differentiate BCS4/BCS5 for UL and DL. BCS4/BCS5 can be used for FR1 intra-band UL CA. Table 6.6.1-1 shows + +the template for NR CA configurations for intra-band contiguous CA with BCS4/BCS5. Table 6.6.1-2 shows the template for NR CA configurations for intra-band non-contiguous CA with BCS4/BCS5. For inter-band CA combinations including FR1 intra-band CA and with BCS4/BCS5, the bandwidth combination sets for the FR1 intra-band CA are BCS4/BCS5. The BCS4/BCS5 are represented in the inter-band CA configuration table by using the option which covers inter-band and intra-band as shown in Table 6.6.1-3. For SUL band combinations, BCS4/BCS5 reuse the same template with inter-band CA as in Table 6.6.1-3. + +**Table 6.6.1-1: Template for NR intra-band contiguous CA configurations with BCS4/BCS5** + +| NR CA configuration / Bandwidth combination set | | | | | | | | | +|-------------------------------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|------------------------------------|---------------------------| +| NR CA configuration n | Uplink CA configurations | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Maximum aggregated bandwidth (MHz) | Bandwidth combination set | +| CA_nXC | CA_nXC | 40 | 80, 100 | | | | 180 | 0 | +| | | 50, 60, 80 | 60, 80, 100 | | | | | | +| | | ... | ... | | | | ... | ... | +| | | See nX channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 for each carrier 2 | | | | | TBD | 4 and 5 | + +NOTE 1: 5 MHz is not applicable for 30/60 kHz SCS. +NOTE 2: The aggregated bandwidth must be greater than or equal to the minimum for the bandwidth class defined in Table 5.3A.5-1, and smaller than or equal to the maximum aggregated bandwidth. + +**Table 6.6.1-2: Template for NR intra-band non-contiguous CA configurations with BCS4/BCS5** + +| NR CA configuration / Bandwidth combination set | | | | | | | | +|-------------------------------------------------|--------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|------------------------------------|---------------------------| +| NR CA configuration n | Uplink CA configurations | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Channel bandwidths for carrier (MHz) | Maximum aggregated bandwidth (MHz) | Bandwidth combination set | +| CA_nX(2A) | CA_nX(2A) | 40, 50, 60, 80, 100 | 40, 50, 60, 80, 100 | | | 180 | 0 | +| | | ... | ... | | | ... | ... | +| | | See nX channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 for each carrier | | | | TBD | 4 and 5 | + +**Table 6.6.1-3: Template for NR inter-band CA configurations including FR1 intra-band CA with BCS4/BCS5** + +| NR CA configuration | Uplink CA configuration | NR Band | Channel bandwidth (MHz) | | | | | | Bandwidth combination set | +|---------------------|-------------------------|---------|---------------------------------------------|----|----|----|----|----|---------------------------| +| | | | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | | +| CA_nXA-nYA | CA_nXA-nYA | nX | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | | | 0 | +| | | nY | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | | +| | | nX | See nX channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 | | | | | | 4 and 5 | +| | | nY | See nY channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 | | | | | | | +| CA_nXA-nYC | CA_nXA-nYA | nX | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | | | 0 | +| | | nY | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 30 | | +| | | nX | See nX channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 | | | | | | 4 and 5 | +| | | nY | See nY channel bandwidths in Table 5.5A.1-1 | | | | | | | + +With regards to the applicability of BCS4/BCS5 to FR2 intra-band combinations, since all FR2 combinations only have BCS0 and new channel bandwidth have not been added, BCS4/BCS5 are probably not needed for FR2.

For BCS4 and BCS5 it is enough just to fill in the band combination table sheet. +- If needed, traditional BCSs are allowed for all releases. For a new band combination in Rel-17 and onwards, if BCS4/BCS5 are requested, traditional BCSs are allowed pending on the proponents, the network of the proponents of BCS4/BCS5 is demanded to recognize BCS4/BCS5. + +### 6.6.3 The maximum aggregated bandwidth for intra-band CA with BCS4/BCS5 + +To guarantee the BCS4/BCS5 can cover all the possible bandwidth configurations for intra-band CA, the maximum aggregated bandwidth chosen for BCS4/BCS5 should equal to- $\min\{n * \max \text{ channel bandwidth of each carrier, BW}_{\text{Channel\_CA}} \text{ of each CA bandwidth class, Maximum frequency range of each band}\}$ for intra-band contiguous CA. + +- $\min\{n * \max \text{ channel bandwidth of each carrier, Maximum frequency range of each band} - \text{Minimum sub-block gaps}\}$ for intra-band non-contiguous CA. + +where n is the number of aggregated CCs, minimum sub-block gaps indicates the sum of the min sub-block gap between the upper edge of lower component carrier and lower edge of higher component carrier that UE can support per band combination in two adjacent non-contiguous component carriers. + +The value of min sub-block gaps could be clarified by the request operator but it should try to cover the needs of all possible operators. + +## 6.7 Guidelines on simplification for 3DL/2UL MSD due to 2UL IMD interference + +For inter-band NR-CA or inter-band EN-DC 3DL/2UL MSD requirements due to dual UL IMD interference, a maximum of two uplink configurations shall be specified: one uplink configuration in each band of the 2UL inter-band CA or DC configuration. + +The UL carrier frequency "UL Fc" and the UL RB allocation "UL LCRB" of the 3rd DL band which is affected by 2UL IMD interference shall be specified as "N/A". + +These guidelines are illustrated in the examples of Table 6.7-1 and Table 6.7-2, including the special case of 3DL/2UL EN-DC combination with only 2 frequency bands where one of the constituent bands is configured for intra-band CA operation, for example DC\_66A\_(n)5AA captured in Table 6.7-2. + +**Table 6.7-1: Example of removing 3UL configurations for NR-CA 3DL/2UL MSD test points due to 2UL IMD interference** + +| Band / Channel bandwidth / N RB / Duplex mode | | | | | | | | Source of IMD | +|----------------------------------------------------------|---------|-------------------------|----------------|---------------------|-------------------------|----------|-------------|---------------| +| NR CA band combination | NR band | UL F c (MHz) | UL/DL BW (MHz) | UL L CRB | DL F c (MHz) | MSD (dB) | Duplex mode | | +| CA_n1-n3-n28 | n1 | 1975 | 5 | 25 | 2165 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n28 | 710.5 | 5 | 25 | 765.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n3 | N/A | 5 | N/A | 1818.5 | 4.0 | FDD | IMD5 | +| | n3 | 1780 | 5 | 25 | 1875 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n28 | 710.5 | 5 | 25 | 765.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n1 | N/A | 5 | N/A | 2139 | 11.0 | FDD | IMD4 | +| CA_n1-n3-n41 | n1 | 1977.5 | 5 | 25 | 2167.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n3 | 1712.5 | 5 | 25 | 1807.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n41 | N/A | 10 | N/A | 2507.5 | 5.0 | TDD | IMD5 | + +**Table 6.7-2: Example of removing 3UL configurations for EN-DC 3DL/2UL MSD test points due to 2UL IMD interference** + +| NR or E-UTRA Band / Channel bandwidth / NRB / MSD | | | | | | | | +|---------------------------------------------------|-----------------|-------------------------|----------------|---------------------|-------------------------|----------|-----------| +| EN-DC Configuration | EUTRA / NR band | UL F c (MHz) | UL/DL BW (MHz) | UL L CRB | DL F c (MHz) | MSD (dB) | IMD order | +| DC_1A-3A_n28A

These three sub-clauses are grouped by a red curly brace and labeled 'new tag' in red. + +Figure 6.8.1-2 Example for “sub-table-group” tag for two bands inter-band CA configurations + +For CA within FR1 bands, TS 38.101-1 [4] provides the CA configuration tables for intra-band contiguous CA, intra-band non-contiguous CA and inter-band CA for NR FR1 bands. The additional information for maximum aggregated bandwidth is set for intra-band contiguous and intra-band non-contiguous CA configuration tables for FR1. + +For CA within FR2 bands, TS 38.101-2 [5] provides the CA configuration tables for intra-band contiguous CA, intra-band non-contiguous CA and inter-band CA for NR FR2 bands. The additional information for maximum aggregated bandwidth is set for intra-band contiguous and intra-band non-contiguous CA configuration tables in TS 38.101-2 [5]. For intra-band non-contiguous CA, the concept of sub-block is applied to FR2. Sub-blocks belonging to a CA + +configuration can be in any order. This means a certain CA configuration acronym includes all sub-block arrangements which have exactly the same sub-block set. As an example, CA\_n260(2G-3O) denotes CA\_n260(2O-2G-O), CA\_n260(G-3O-G) etc, but these are not listed in tables separately. + +For CA between FR1 and FR2 bands, TS 38.101-3 [6] provides the inter-band CA configuration tables for NR bands between FR1 and FR2. + +For the uplink CA configuration, “-” in the configuration table denotes that non-CA operation is supported in this configuration, i.e. only single carrier operation for the constituent band is used for uplink. + +For the sake of brevity and to reduce the size of CA configuration tables, instead of showing explicitly in the CA configuration tables, the SCS info for each NR band in the configuration is referred to the channel bandwidths for each NR band in clause 5.3.5 of TS 38.101-1 [4] and TS 38.101-2 [5]. For configurations including intra-band contiguous part, the detail configuration for this part is referred to the corresponding intra-band contiguous CA configuration table. Examples: + +For NR inter-band CA configuration with two bands in FR1, Table 6.8.1-1 illustrates that, + +- CA\_n1A-n3A consists of two NR bands n1 and n3 whose SCS values are defined in Table 6.8.1-2. For example, for NR band n1, the supported channel bandwidth in BCS0 is 5MHz, 10MHz, 15MHz and 20MHz where channel bandwidth 5MHz supports SCS with only 15kHz, channel bandwidths 10MHz, 15MHz and 20MHz support all SCS of {15kHz, 30kHz, 60kHz}. +- CA\_n1B-n3A having intra-band contiguous part CA\_n1B, the configuration of band n1 for the corresponding CA part is referred to CA\_n1B\_BCS0 defined in intra-band contiguous CA configuration table. +- CA\_n2A-n66A consists of two BCSs. The UL CA configurations denote the allowed UL CA configurations supported by the specification. For BCS0, the uplink configuration “-” indicates that non-CA operation is supported and only single carrier operation is used in uplink. For BCS1, the uplink configuration supports CA configuration CA\_n2A-n66A. +- For some configurations, there are regional spectrum limitations to the corresponding bands and the notes can be found in the configuration table, such as for CA\_n2A-n48A\_BCS0, the channel bandwidths 50MHz, 60MHz, 80MHz, 90MHz and 100MHz are applicable only to downlink. + +For channel bandwidth per operating band defined in clause 5.3.5 of TS 38.101-1/-2 and TS 38.104, Table 6.8.1-2 illustrates that, + +- The requirements for each configuration should be complied with the combination of channel bandwidths, SCS for each operating band defined in the table. +- For some bands the limitations to the bandwidth may be captured with notes in the table, such as for NR band n48, the channel bandwidth 5MHz is restricted to operation when carrier is configured as an SCell part of DC or CA configuration. + +Table 6.8.1-1: NR CA configurations and bandwidth combinations sets defined for inter-band CA (two bands) + +| NR CA configuration | Uplink CA configuration or single uplink carrier 10 | NR Band | Channel bandwidth (MHz) (NOTE 3) | Bandwidth combination set | +|---------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------|---------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------| +| CA_n1A-n3A | CA_n1A-n3A | n1 | 5, 10, 15, 20 | 0 | +| | | n3 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 | | +| | | n1 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 | 1 | +| | | n3 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40 | | +| | | n1 | 5, 10, 15, 20 | 2 | +| | | n3 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 | | +| | | n1 | n1 channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 | 4 and 5 | +| | | n3 | n3 channel bandwidths in Table 5.3.5-1 | | +| CA_n1A-n3B | -

For the 25 MHz bandwidth, the minimum requirements are specified for NR UL carrier frequencies confined to either 715.5-720.5 MHz or 730.5-735.5 MHz.

In the configuration table, only NR-DC configurations and uplink NR-DC configurations are listed. The bandwidth combination sets for the corresponding inter-band CA, i.e., dual uplink inter-band carrier aggregation with uplink assigned to two NR bands, are applicable to Dual Connectivity. + +EN-DC and NE-DC configurations are specified in clause 5.5B of TS 38.101-3. In the configuration table, in addition to the downlink configurations and uplink configurations, the combinations of intra-band contiguous, non-contiguous and inter-band within FR1 also include the column of “Single UL allowed”. The combination of some frequency bands in the configuration might be a bit problematic due to self-interference, as defined in TS38.306. UE may indicate capability of not supporting simultaneous dual and triple uplink operation due to possible intermodulation interference to its own primary downlink channel bandwidth if the intermodulation order is 2 or if the intermodulation order is 3 for the combinations when both operating bands are between 450 MHz – 960 MHz or between 1427 MHz – 2690 MHz. In case for the EN-DC configurations for which the intermodulation products caused by the dual and triple uplink operation fall into the receive band but do not interfere with the own primary downlink channel bandwidth as defined in Annex-I of TS 38.101-3 the UE is mandated to operate in dual and triple uplink mode. Single Uplink is also allowed for certain band combinations where intermodulation or reverse intermodulation products could create difficulty for meeting emission requirements. For EN-DC and NE-DC combinations of order 3 or higher, “Single Uplink allowed” UL configurations captured in the corresponding order 2 tables apply. As for an example, to mitigate the self-interference issue, the EN-DC configuration DC\_3A\_n78A has specified which band combinations are allowed to stray from the stringent requirement for simultaneous transmission and reception. The uplink needs to alternate between 1.8GHz and 3.5GHz. While 3.5GHz uplink transmission is ongoing, no data should be scheduled by the network on the 1.8GHz LTE carrier. + +Apart from the above EN-DC and NE-DC configurations, TS 38.101-3 also specified inter-band NR-DC configuration between FR1 and FR2. The configurations and bandwidth combination sets for the FR1-FR2 NR-DC combinations are defined in the tables for FR1-FR2 inter-band carrier aggregation. + +In order to reduce the EN-DC, NE-DC and NR-DC configuration table size, the following rules should be applied to the grouping of the configurations. + +- Grouping of DC configurations is based on common band combination. +- In case E-UTRA or/and NR has non-contiguous CA, it will be on a separate row compared to cases when DC configuration has only single carrier or contiguous CA operation. +- Common band combination should be considered as the configurations having the same band sequence, such as DC\_x-y-y\_nz and DC\_x-x-y\_nz are different band combinations, while all configurations with DC\_x-y\_nz(\*) having non-contiguous parts in band nz are considered as common band combination. + +*Examples (EN-DC with NR band having non-contiguous part):* + +| EN-DC configuration | Uplink EN-DC configuration | +|---------------------|----------------------------| +| DC_2A_n258A | DC_2A_n258A | +| DC_2A_n258D | DC_2A_n258D | +| DC_2A_n258G | DC_2A_n258G | +| DC_2A_n258H | DC_2A_n258H | +| DC_2A_n258O | DC_2A_n258O | +| DC_2A_n258P | DC_2A_n258P | +| DC_2A_n258Q | DC_2A_n258Q | +| DC_2A_n258(2A) | DC_2A_n258A | +| DC_2A_n258(3A) | | +| DC_2A_n258(4A) | | +| DC_2A_n258(5A) | | + +*Examples (EN-DC with E-UTRA band having non-contiguous part):* + +| EN-DC configuration | Uplink EN-DC configuration | +|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| DC_7A_n257A

Currently, the main RF requirements related to specific band combinations include maximum output power (MOP), spurious emission for UE-to-UE coexistence, REFSENS and REFSENS exceptions due to harmonic/harmonic mixing/cross band isolation/IMD interference. Obviously, RF requirements for different features on the same band combination have some similarities and dependency. Especially, the RF implementations are similar and RF architectures can be reused for different features on the same band combination. It's very meaningful to study the similarity and dependency of RF requirements for different features on the same band combination and find out the feasibility to further optimize the specification structure and reduce the test burden. For example, CA\_nA-nB (NR CA), DC\_nA-nB (NR-DC), DC\_A\_nB (EN-DC), DC\_B\_nA (EN-DC), DC\_nB\_A (NE-DC), DC\_nA\_B (NE-DC) (different features on same band combination) can use same RF implementation. + +## 7.2 Similarity and Dependency of Tx RF requirements for different features on the same band combination + +### 7.2.1 Maximum output power + +As an example, PC3 MOP requirements for all the UL NR CA, UL NR DC, EN-DC and NE-DC band combinations in table 7.2.1-1 based on the TS 38.101-1-h60 and TS 38.101-3-h60. One band combination may be chosen to verify PC3 MOP testing for some band combinations in same row in table 7.2.1-1, as a result of reducing test burden. It's suggested to randomly choose one band combination that UE support for MOP testing. The proposed test reduction could be considered for an informative annex in the TS since the final decision should be taken by RAN5 based on the industry certification testing needs. + +**Table 7.2.1-1: Band combination PC3 MOP requirements for the same frequency range with different features** + +| Uplink NR CA Configuration | Uplink NR DC Configuration | Uplink EN-DC Configuration | Uplink NE-DC Configuration | Class 3 (dBm) | Tolerance (dB) | +|----------------------------|----------------------------|----------------------------------------------------|----------------------------|---------------|----------------| +| CA_n1A-n3A | DC_n1A-n3A | DC_1A_n3A

The test points in the reference sensitivity requirements specified for the single band are relaxed by the amount of the corresponding MSD values, shown as an example in Table 7.4-1. For some CA configurations such as CA\_n2-n77, CA\_n3-n77 and CA\_n3-n78, multiple test points with different order IMD are defined, while for some other CA configurations such as CA\_n2-n78, only 2nd order IMD2 having the worst case MSD are defined, although the corresponding band is subject to the 5th order IMD5. At the end of the table, a "Note 4" is set to indicate that MSD is not specified for the interfered band although IMD5 may fall into the Rx frequencies of the interfered band. To reduce the test burden, the following guidelines for handling multiple MSD should be taken into consideration. + +Table 7.4-1: Example for inter-band reference sensitivity with multiple MSD + +| Band / Channel bandwidth / N RB / Duplex mode | | | | | | | | Source of IMD | +|----------------------------------------------------------|---------|-------------------------|----------------|---------------------|-------------------------|----------|-------------|-------------------| +| NR CA band combination | NR band | UL F c (MHz) | UL/DL BW (MHz) | UL C LRB | DL F c (MHz) | MSD (dB) | Duplex mode | | +| CA_n1-n3 | n1 | 1950 | 5 | 25 | 2140 | 23 | FDD | IMD3 | +| | n3 | 1760 | 5 | 25 | 1855 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n1-n8 | n1 | 1965 | 5 | 25 | 2155 | 6.0 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n8 | 887.5 | 5 | 25 | 932.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| CA_n1-n78 | n1 | 1950 | 5 | 25 | 2140 | 8.0 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n78 | 3710 | 10 | 50 | 3710 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n2-n48 | n2 | 1852.5 | 5 | 25 | 1932.5 | 12 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n48 | 3625 | 20 | 100 | 3625 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n2-n77 | n2 | 1855 | 5 | 25 | 1935 | 26 | FDD | IMD2 | +| | n77 | 3790 | 10 | 50 | 3790 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| | n2 | 1900 | 5 | 25 | 1980 | 8.0 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n77 | 3720 | 10 | 50 | 3720 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| | n2 | 1885 | 5 | 25 | 1965 | 5 | FDD | IMD5 | +| | n77 | 3810 | 10 | 50 | 3810 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n2-n78 | n2 | 1855 | 5 | 25 | 1935 | 26 | FDD | IMD2 4 | +| | n78 | 3790 | 10 | 50 | 3790 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n3-n7 | n3 | 1730 | 5 | 25 | 1825 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n7 | 2535 | 10 | 50 | 2655 | 10.2 | FDD | IMD4 | +| CA_n3-n8 | n3 | 1755 | 10 | 50 | 1850 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| | n8 | 900 | 5 | 25 | 945 | 8 | FDD | IMD4 4 | +| | n3 | 1747.5 | 10 | 50 | 1842.5 | 6.4 | FDD | IMD5 | +| | n8 | 897.5 | 5 | 25 | 942.5 | N/A | FDD | N/A | +| CA_n3-n38 | n3 | 1713 | 5 | 25 | 1808 | 8.2 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n38 | 2617 | 5 | 25 | 2617 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n3-n41 | n3 | 1740 | 5 | 25 | 1835 | 8.2 | FDD | IMD4 | +| | n41 | 2657.5 | 10 | 50 | 2657.5 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n3-n77 | n3 | 1740 | 5 | 25 | 1835 | 26 | FDD | IMD2 4 | +| | n77 | 3575 | 10 | 50 | 3575 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| | n3 | 1765 | 5 | 25 | 1860 | 8.0 | FDD | IMD4 4 | +| | n77 | 3435 | 10 | 50 | 3435 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| CA_n3-n78 | n3 | 1740 | 5 | 25 | 1835 | 26 | FDD | IMD2 4 | +| | n78 | 3575 | 10 | 25 | 3575 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| | n3 | 1765 | 5 | 25 | 1860 | 8.0 | FDD | IMD4 4 | +| | n78 | 3435 | 10 | 25 | 3435 | N/A | TDD | N/A | +| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | ... | + +NOTE 4: This band is subject to IMD5 also which MSD is not specified. + +For a given 2 band DL CA combination, MSD test points corresponding to type 1,2,3 UL configuration are captured in the same table entry. + +- **Type 1:** UL configuration = 2 UL CCs configured with intra-band UL CA configured in one of the two band. Intra-band UL CA may be contiguous (like UL CA\_n41C) or non-contiguous (like UL CA\_n78(2A)). +- **Type 2:** UL configuration = 2 UL CCs configured inter-band UL CA with 1UL CC in each of UL band. Example: UL CA\_n3A\_n78A. +- **Type 3:** UL configuration = 3 UL CCs with 1 CC in one UL band, and 2 UL CCs configured intra-band CA in the other band. Example: UL CA\_n3A-n41C. + +Guideline 1: It is proposed that for the test points with reference sensitivity exceptions due to intermodulation interference with 2UL CA, the limitation to higher order IMD source could be a solution to reduce test burden. + +- The existing IMD MSD requirements in Rel-17 specifications are kept unchanged. +- For Rel-18 new introduced band combinations, +- For type 1 UL configurations (e.g. UL\_CA\_n41C or CA\_n78(2A)) + +- The lowest order IMD is recommended as worst case to represent single band UL transmission with UL configured intra-band CA. +- If the DL band may be affected by a mix of even and odd order IMD products, the MSD value of the lowest even and the lowest odd order IMD, if any, shall be defined in the specifications. +- A footnote shall be attached to the DL band to indicate that MSD may occur for higher order IMD products, and these orders shall be specified in the footnote. +- As an exception to this rule, a second MSD test point may be specified to capture the MSD that may occur due to the next highest odd order or due to the next highest even order IMD product. This exception ensures regional frequency restrictions are accounted for. For example, in CA\_n66\_n77 the type 1 IMD7 MSD test point (next highest odd order) may be retained in addition to the type 1 IMD5 MSD test point (lowest odd order). +- A footnote shall be attached to the UL band that is configured intra-band UL CA to distinguish the case of intra-band contiguous vs intra-band non-contiguous CA. +- For type 2 UL configurations (e.g. UL\_CA\_n1A-n3A) + +If only one IMD order occurs per victim band, the MSD value if any shall be defined in the specifications. + +If the DL band may be affected by a mix of even and odd order IMD products, then the MSD value of the lowest even and the lowest odd order IMD, if any, shall be defined in the specifications. + +A footnote shall be attached to the DL band to indicate that MSD may occur for higher order IMD products, and these orders shall be specified in the footnote. + +If the DL band may be affected only by multiple even order IMD products, or only by multiple odd order IMD products, then the MSD value of the lowest even order IMD or the MSD value of the lowest odd order IMD, if any, shall be defined in the specifications. + +The lowest order IMD is recommended as worst case to represent the whole spectrum of the inter-band CA combinations. + +Optionally, a second MSD test point may be specified on a case-by-case basis to account for additional IMD orders. It is recommended this 2nd MSD test point corresponds to the lowest even and the lowest odd order IMD. For example, if DL band is affected by IMD2/3/5, we may consider a maximum of test points: one for IMD2 and one for IMD3. + +Any additional IMD order that is not specified shall be indicated by a note in the table. + +- For type 3 UL configurations (e.g. CA\_n3A-n41C or DC\_3C\_n1A-n75A) + +For the case when the victim band may be affected by a 1st order triple-beat product Proponents should systematically check if the downlink band may be affected by dual uplink IMD3 interference.

More 'things' are expected to be interconnected for improving productivity efficiency and increasing comforts of life. Further reduction of size, complexity, and power consumption of IoT devices can enable the deployment of tens or even hundreds of billions of IoT devices for various applications and provide added value across the entire value chain. It is impossible to power all the IoT devices by battery that needs to be replaced or recharged manually, which leads to high maintenance cost, serious environmental issues, and even safety hazards for some use cases, for example, wireless sensors in electrical power, and petroleum industries. + +Most of the existing wireless communication devices are powered by batteries that need to be replaced or recharged manually. The automation and digitization of various industries opens numerous new markets requiring new IoT technologies of supporting batteryless devices with no energy storage capability or devices with energy storage that do not need to be replaced or recharged manually. + +An example type of application is asset identification, which presently has to resort mainly to barcodes and RFID in most industries. The main advantage of these two technologies is the ultra-low complexity and small form factor of the tags. However, the limited reading range of a few meters usually requires handheld scanning which leads to labor intensive and time-consuming operations, or RFID portals/gates which leads to costly deployments. Moreover, the lack of interference management scheme results in severe interference between RFID readers and capacity problems, especially in case of dense deployment. It is hard to support a large-scale network with seamless coverage for RFID. + +In contrast, this study investigates the feasibility of a new IoT technology to open new markets within 3GPP systems, whose number of connections and/or device density can be orders of magnitude higher than existing 3GPP IoT technologies, and which can provide complexity and power consumption orders-of-magnitude lower than existing 3GPP LPWA technologies such as NB-IoT and LTE-MTC. + +# --- 1 Scope + +The present document reports on the feasibility of meeting the design targets for relevant use cases of a new 3GPP IoT technology, on the basis of suitable deployment scenarios in a 3GPP system, which relies on ultra-low complexity devices with ultra-low power consumption for very-low end IoT applications. It intends to provide a clear differentiation, i.e. addressing use cases and scenarios that *cannot* otherwise be fulfilled based on existing 3GPP LPWA IoT technology. + +In terms of energy storage, the study considers the following device characteristics: + +- Pure batteryless devices with no energy storage capability at all, and completely dependent on the availability of an external source of energy. +- Devices with limited energy storage capability that do not need to be replaced or recharged manually. + +# --- 2 References + +The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document. + +- References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non-specific. +- For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply. +- For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies.

Use of stored energy can include amplification for reflected signals. +- Device C: Has energy storage, has independent signal generation, i.e., active RF components for transmission. + +A limited energy storage can be different among implementations within Device B or implementations within Device C, and different between Device B and Device C. Such storage is expected to be order(s) of magnitude smaller than an NB-IoT device would typically include. + +Device A, B, and C are able to demodulate control, data, etc from the relevant entity in RAN according to connectivity topology. + +# 5 RAN design targets + +## 5.1 Device power consumption + +For Device A, the power consumption target during transmitting/receiving is $\leq 1 \mu\text{W}$ or $\leq 10 \mu\text{W}$ , + +For Device B, the target during transmitting/receiving is such that: + +- Device A power consumption $\ll$ Device B power consumption $<$ Device C power consumption; or +- Device A power consumption $\leq$ Device B power consumption $<$ Device C power consumption. + +The device power consumption during transmitting/receiving for Device C is $\leq 1 \text{ mW}$ to $\leq 10 \text{ mW}$ . + +## 5.2 Device complexity + +For Device A, the complexity target is to be comparable to UHF RFID ISO18000-6C (EPC C1G2). + +For Device B, the target is such that: + +- Device A complexity $<$ Device B complexity $<$ Device C complexity. + +For Device C, the complexity target is to be orders-of-magnitude lower than NB-IoT. + +## 5.3 Coverage + +The coverage target for both DL and UL is represented by the maximum distance: + +- Between Ambient IoT device and basestation in Topology (1) and (3) +- Between Ambient IoT device and intermediate or assisting node in Topology (2) and (3), respectively +- Between Ambient IoT device and UE in Topology (4). + +Details relevant to the maximum distance such as sensitivity, BLER, transmit power, etc. are for WG expertise to study further. + +The design target of coverage is: + +By indoor / outdoor, grouping different Devices into a range that WGs can sub-select within + +- the maximum distance of 10 – 50 m for indoor +- the maximum distance of 50 – 500 m for outdoor + +NOTE: Different target values within these ranges may apply to different devices A/B/C and deployment scenarios 1-5. + +NOTE: If BS is present, then continuous coverage (from the device perspective) based on a typical ISD between base stations is assumed. This does not imply an assumption of any particular topology. + +NOTE: For Device A & B, the emitter-to-tag distance should be reported as part of the assessment. + +## 5.4 User experienced data rate + +The user experienced data rate target is, for the uplink and downlink, maximum not less than 5 kbps, and minimum not less than 0.1 kbps. + +## 5.5 Maximum message size + +The design target of maximum message size is approximately 1000 bits to be received by the Ambient IoT device, and approximately 1000 bits to be transmitted from the Ambient IoT device, based on the maximum application layer packet size. + +RAN1/RAN2 can refine as needed for TB size design. + +## 5.6 Latency + +The one-way end-to-end maximum latency targets, as defined in TR 22.840, are: + +- Longer latency target: 10 seconds +- Shorter latency target: 1 second + +A use case is assigned to a latency target according to TR 22.840. RAN WGs can refine a definition of latency suitable for their work within the above. + +NOTE: The time for charging the Ambient IoT device storage (if present) is not included in the latency defined above. Time for energy harvesting, charging, etc. is regarded as an implementation issue only. + +NOTE: The one-way end-to-end maximum latency is assumed to also include query/triggering time. + +## 5.7 Positioning accuracy + +The design target of absolute positioning accuracy when performed by the cellular network (including assisting nodes when present) is: + +- 1~3 meters @ 90% indoor location. +- Several tens of meters @ 90% outdoor location. + +The design target of relative ranging accuracy for topology 4 is: + +- 1~3 meters @ 90% indoor and outdoor location + +## 5.8 Connection/device density + +According to the consolidated potential KPIs in TR 22.840, the maximum connection density target is: + +- 150 devices per 100 m2 for indoor scenarios. +- 20 devices per 100 m2 for outdoor scenarios. + +RAN WGs will define the 2D or 3D distribution(s) of devices. + +## 5.9 Moving speed of device + +The design target of moving speed of Ambient IoT device is 10 km/h, at least for indoor scenarios. + +NOTE: Absolute speed is used in Topology (1), (2) and (3). Relative speed is used in Topology (4). + +# 6 Comparison and assessment + +## 6.1 Preliminary feasibility assessment + +### 6.1.1 Device power consumption + +Feasibility of power consumption for Device A at $\leq 1 \mu\text{W}$ level has been reported by reference to [3], [4], [5], [6], and at $\leq 10 \mu\text{W}$ level by [7] depending on component choices such as in [8]. Feasibility of power consumption for Device C at $\leq 1 \text{mW}$ level has been reported by reference to [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], and by reference in part to the receiver architectures discussed in the Rel-18 SI on low-power wake up signal/receiver [14] [15] at $\leq 10 \text{mW}$ level. For Device B, which adds energy storage to Device A and has been described as also potentially including (without limitation), e.g. reflection amplification, feasibility of power consumption in the order of hundreds of $\mu\text{W}$ has been reported by [7] depending on component choices such as in [16]. + +### 6.1.2 Device complexity + +Feasibility assessment for this aspect was presented on a qualitative basis by companies describing exemplary waveform, and/or transmitter, and/or receiver architectures which, according to their analysis, would satisfy the device power consumption design target. It was also observed that the amount of energy storage could affect device complexity. Examples of considered waveforms include OOK/FSK, and ASK. Examples of considered transmitter architectures for Device A/B include those based on backscattering technology, and receiver architectures based on envelope detection, while for Device C, very low power consumption heterodyne/homodyne architectures were reported as satisfying the complexity design target. + +On the other hand, aspects such as the memory required for security, authentication, etc., and hardware used for encryption processing would add to the complexity of the device. There were also discussions of the quality required in circuitry such as energy harvesting, backscattering, and PAs which, as their efficiency increases, tend to have higher complexity. + +Detailed analysis of designs which meet the device complexity requirement is considered to require WG-level technical expertise. + +### 6.1.3 Coverage + +Feasibility of a coverage target was assessed by sources differently for Devices A, B, C. In addition to typical elements comprising a 3GPP coverage evaluation, such as BS/intermediate/assistant node transmit power and receive sensitivity, device receiver sensitivity, propagation losses, etc. (which vary according to the specific calculation method), aspects particular to Ambient IoT devices were added. These include: + +- Device A/B backscattering activation power threshold +- Device B amplification (if any) +- Device A/B reflection loss +- Distance from carrier wave source to Ambient IoT device, for Device A/B +- Power of carrier wave source and/or incident power at Device A/B from carrier wave source + +Although different evaluation methodologies were adopted by sources [17] – [25], the coverage of Device A is reported as less than Device B (with or without amplification), which is less than Device C. The coverage of Ambient IoT devices relying on backscattering technology was reported to increase as the carrier wave source gets closer to the Ambient IoT device, due to the higher incident power on the device. + +### 6.1.4 User experienced data rate + +Full user-experienced data rate assessment was noted as requiring WG-level technical expertise, and detailed assumptions on air interface design. For TSG-level purposes, companies used simplified approximates. Peak data rate was one such approximant, where companies reported values above 5 kbps for uplink and downlink to be achievable + +according to various sets of assumptions including sufficient bandwidth, and in one case noted that the components assumed by reference to [26] would need further investigation whether the device power consumption target could be simultaneously met. One source [17] estimated data rate by accounting for device charging time and operation time, resulting in data rates 0.14 – 2.24 kbps for uplink and downlink. + +### 6.1.5 Maximum message size + +Companies' study of the feasibility of this design requirement was by reference to e.g. RFID which supports message sizes larger than about 1000 bits. It was also observed that the different Devices could be regarded as feasible for different maximum message sizes. + +### 6.1.6 Latency + +Feasibility of latency was reported typically by comparing a message size to a data rate, for example 5 kbps / 1000 bit = 200 ms latency for the largest message size at the target peak rate. Feasibility would also depend on a consideration of signalling procedures and possible random access-like procedure. + +### 6.1.7 Positioning accuracy + +Feasibility assessment for this aspect has been reported by reference to technologies of a similar complexity level, such as UHF RFID achieving 2-3 m accuracy in [27], [28], [29] indoors, and ultra-narrow IoT achieving from several tens to 100 or 150 m in [30], [31], [32] outdoors. It is also observed that Device A and B need to have a carrier wave source in an appropriate distance to be able to transmit signals for positioning. + +### 6.1.8 Connection/device density + +Feasibility of the target was discussed from the basis of assuming cell access procedures, and device addressing. It was discussed as applying a requirement on the design of such procedures, identities, etc. rather than being a matter for feasibility assessment before starting such designs. + +### 6.1.9 Moving speed of device + +The feasibility aspects that were reported related to the impact of Doppler shift or channel coherence on the possible types of modulation contemplated by companies for especially Device A and B. It was observed, without limiting RAN WG design scope, that at least for low-order non-OFDM modulation, Doppler impacts at the low moving-speed level implied in Clause 5.9 would likely be acceptable, although the impact on transmission times potentially a multiple of the coherence time should also be studied in RAN WGs. + +## 6.2 Required RAN functionalities + +The assumptions on required functionality have been studied on the basis of supporting certain RAN design targets as well as other requirements. At least the following potential functionalities are identified in different sets, respectively, according to the purpose of each functionality assumed to be mainly used for.

Additionally, SA1 has developed requirements in TS 22.261 [4] for "Ranging based services" TR 22.855 [5] and has developed positioning accuracy requirements in TS 22.104 [6] for IIoT use cases in out-of-coverage scenarios. There is a need for 3GPP to study and develop sidelink positioning solutions that can support the use cases, scenarios and requirements identified during these activities. + +The study on "NR positioning enhancements" TR 38.857 [2] investigated higher accuracy, and lower latency location, high integrity and reliability requirements resulting from new applications and industry verticals for 5G. Some of the enhancements identified during that work have been specified during the Release 17 Work Item on "NR positioning enhancements", but there remain a number of opportunities for enhancement that have not yet been incorporated into the specifications. + +Regarding higher accuracy, two promising techniques identified in earlier studies will be considered in Release 18: one is to take the advantage of the rich 5G spectrum to increase the bandwidth for the transmission and reception of the positioning reference signals based on PRS/SRS bandwidth aggregation for intra-band carriers, and the other is to use the NR carrier phase measurements. GNSS carrier phase positioning has been used very successfully for centimetre-level positioning but is limited to outdoor applications. NR carrier phase positioning has the potential for significant performance improvements for indoor and outdoor deployments in comparison with the existing NR positioning methods, as well as shorter latency and lower UE power consumption in comparison with RTK-GNSS outdoors. + +Positioning integrity is a measure of the trust in the accuracy of the position-related data and the ability to provide timely warnings based on assistance data provided by the network. The focus in Release 17 work was on GNSS integrity, and for Release 18 it is natural to extend this to address other positioning techniques as well as there are relevant integrity aspects of mission critical use cases that rely on positioning estimates and the corresponding uncertainty estimate. Integrity enables applications to make the correct decisions based on the reported position, e.g., when monitoring a robotic arm to decide whether its arm movement are within allowed limits to ensure safety distances to humans and other objects. + +SA1 has introduced requirements for LPHAP (Low Power High Accuracy Positioning) for industrial IoT scenarios including use cases such as massive asset tracking, AGV tracking in industrial factory and person localization in danger zones. The SA1 requirements are for high accuracy and extreme low power consumption with battery life sustainable up to one or more years. A typical scenario of interest is use case 6 as defined TS 22.104 [6], which corresponds to tracking of workpiece (in- and outdoor) in assembly area and warehouse with a target accuracy of <1m, a positioning interval of 15-30 seconds, and a battery life of 6-12 months. While Release 17 NR positioning has introduced support for positioning in RRC\_INACTIVE state, there is a need to evaluate whether the current system allows LPHAP requirements to be met. + +Release 17 has specified support for RedCap UEs with reduced bandwidth support and reduced complexity including reduced number of receive chains. Such UEs could support NR positioning functionality but there is a gap in that the core and performance requirements have not been specified for the positioning related measurements performed by + +RedCap UEs, and no evaluation was performed to see how the reduced capabilities of RedCap UEs might impact eventual position accuracy. This gap is to be investigated by the present SI. + +# 5 Sidelink positioning + +## 5.0 Study objectives + +The scope of the study on solutions for SL positioning is defined in the SID [7] as: + +- Scenario/requirements for SL positioning +- Identify specific target performance requirements to be considered for the evaluation based on existing 3GPP work and inputs from industry forums +- Define evaluation methodology with which to evaluate SL positioning for the use cases and coverage scenarios, reusing existing methodologies from sidelink communication and from positioning as much as possible +- Study and evaluate performance and feasibility of potential solutions for SL positioning, considering relative positioning, ranging and absolute positioning: + - Evaluate bandwidth requirement needed to meet the identified accuracy requirements + - Study of positioning methods (e.g., TDOA, RTT, AOA/D, etc) including combination of SL positioning measurements with other RAT dependent positioning measurements (e.g., Uu-based measurements) + - Study of sidelink reference signals for positioning purposes from physical layer perspective, including signal design, resource allocation, measurements, associated procedures, etc, reusing existing reference signals, procedures, etc from sidelink communication and from positioning as much as possible + - Study of positioning architecture and signaling procedures (e.g., configuration, measurement reporting, etc) to enable sidelink positioning covering both UE based and network-based positioning. + +## 5.1 Sidelink positioning scenarios and requirements + +The following objectives are captured in SID [7] on scenarios and requirements for study of sidelink positioning solutions: + +- Coverage scenarios to cover: In-coverage, partial-coverage and out-of-coverage. +- Requirements: Based on requirements identified in TR 38.845 [3] and TS 22.261 [4] and TS 22.104 [6]. +- Use cases: V2X (TR 38.845) [3], public safety (TR 38.845) [3], commercial (TS 22.261) [4], IIOT (TS 22.104) [6]. +- Spectrum: ITS, licensed + +Both PC5-only-based positioning solutions and combination of Uu- and PC5-based positioning solutions are considered for study of sidelink positioning. + +Based on the study, from the perspectives of RAN1 and RAN2, both of the following operation scenarios are recommended for normative work: + +- Operation Scenario 1: PC5-only-based positioning. +- Operation Scenario 2: Combination of Uu- and PC5-based positioning. + +For evaluations, in-coverage and out-of-coverage scenarios are prioritized.

PEI triggered positioning improves battery life by 0.09 (6.77%) ~0.62 (29.11%) months for DL positioning, and by 0.04 (2.90%) ~0.47 (20.61%) months for UL positioning, for DRX cycle 10.24s and 20.48s, and ultra-deep sleep state option 1 with additional transition energy 10000. + +Results on battery life of skipping paging reception are further provided by 1 source ([92]) out of 19 sources, configuring a DRX cycle longer than positioning periodicity (up to 81.92s) or without paging reception can achieve 44.32%~89% power saving gain and is beneficial to improve battery life as it allows a UE to wake up using ultra-deep sleep state option 2 when only performing positioning related operations to achieve the target requirement of LPHAP. When UE wakes up to perform other operations than just positioning related operations, the UE uses ultra-deep sleep state option 1. + +Results of only using TRS-based synchronization in adjacent slot to SRS is further provided by 1 source ([92]) under ultra-deep sleep state option 2 without paging reception, which achieves 23.33% power saving gain and further improves battery life with respect to that using SSB-based synchronization for UL positioning. + +Evaluation results of simplified PRS configuration on both battery life and accuracy are provided by 1 source ([101]) out of 19 sources, the following is observed: + +- In the case of K=1, C2=800, DRX cycle = 10.24s with ultra-deep sleep option 2, 1-symbol PRS can satisfy 6-month battery life but more than 1 symbol PRS cannot. +- The positioning accuracy of 1-symbol PRS and comb size > 12 barely reduces and can meet the accuracy requirement in some cases. + +Table 6.4.3-1 presents a summary of the potential enhancements and their combinations considered by different sources as part of the study. + +**Table 6.4.3-1: Summary for results of overall enhancements for LPHAP** + +| Source | Evaluation case description | Target requirements are met – Yes/No | | +|--------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|-------------------| +| | | 6 months | 12 months | +| [92] | UE-assisted DL positioning;

By rotating an omnidirectional antenna through the test volume as illustrated by the red line, this volumetric ripple may be probed to obtain an estimate of the measurement uncertainty due to this volumetric error. Note, however, that the volumetric ripple caused by multipath reflections is related to the wavelength and the relative path lengths of the direct and reflected paths to the measurement antenna, and is not inherently a function of the test volume. As illustrated in Figure 7.6.2-1(left), when the wavelength is relatively large compared to the test volume, it may not be possible to probe the entire range of errors that may actually exist within the test volume. Doing so would require probing an area larger than the test volume in order to accurately estimate the error within the test volume.

This test procedure attempts to capture the impact of these effects to within the practical limits of the available test volume and test equipment expected in the lab. + +The quiet zone ripple test covers two cylindrical test volumes, one for handsets and smaller devices, with or without head and/or hand phantoms, and a larger volume for testing up to notebook PC sized devices.

The larger cylinder is 50 cm in diameter, concentric to the phi axis, with the base of the cylinder coincident with that of the smaller cylinder and a height of 36 cm along the phi axis. The test consists of a set of individual ripple tests about the phi- and theta-axes utilizing both electric dipoles and magnetic loop dipoles to generate uniform omnidirectional dipole-like patterns about the axis of rotation. Data is measured on the co-polarized measurement antenna element for each corresponding test. + +For the phi-axis ripple test, each reference antenna is oriented with its axis parallel to the phi axis at a total of three positions, offset 15 cm perpendicular to the phi axis with 0 cm and $\pm 15$ cm offsets parallel to the phi axis.

However, the reverberation chamber should not be loaded to such an extent that the mode statistics in the chamber are impaired. It is important to keep the same loss profile in the chamber during calibration, measurement and test, in order not to change the average power transfer function between these two cases. Examples of lossy objects are blocks of RF absorber, head and hand phantoms. The configuration should be calculated to achieve a minimum coherence bandwidth of [5] times the sub-carrier spacing. + +#### 8.3.2.1 Coherence bandwidth calculation + +The coherence bandwidth (CBW) is a metric to determine the correlation in frequency within a working volume of a reverberation chamber (RC). To measure CBW, one should calculate the complex autocorrelation of the transmission parameter ( $S_{21}$ ) for each mode-stirred sample over a minimum [100] MHz bandwidth, as follows [21]: + +$$R(i, n) = \frac{\sum_{j=1}^{P-i} S_{21}(f_j, n) S_{21}^*(f_{j+i}, n)}{\sum_{j=1}^P S_{21}(f_j, n) S_{21}^*(f_j, n)} \quad (8.1)$$ + +Where $R(i, n)$ represents the normalized correlation function at the $i^{th}$ frequency step and the $n^{th}$ mode stirring sample. $S_{21}(f_j, n)$ represents the measured complex $S_{21}$ at the frequency step $f_j$ with [P] frequency points measured within a given bandwidth (BW) such that $f_1 = f_c - (\frac{BW}{2})$ and $f_P = f_c + (\frac{BW}{2})$ . The symbol \* represents the complex conjugation acting on this parameter. $n$ is the mode stirring sample index with a total number equal to [N]. $i$ is the frequency offset index with a frequency resolution of $\frac{f_P - f_1}{P-1}$ , i.e., $\Delta f = i \frac{f_P - f_1}{P-1}$ , and $-(P - 1) \leq i \leq (P - 1)$ [21]. + +The test points could be the same as in step (a) given in Section 8.3.3 namely, T=12 for chambers with a turntable or T=24 for chambers without a turntable. + +To measure CBW, follow these steps: + +- (a) Select the center frequency $f_c$ and BW.

The spatial uniformity test defines this working volume as the valid test zone of the chamber which must be large enough to contain the entire DUT plus any test scenario elements such as phantom fixtures. If DUT size is not known at the time of chamber validation, the minimum test zones described in the reference method [24] of $30\text{cm} \times 30\text{cm}$ or $50\text{cm} \times 36\text{cm}$ can be used in order to enable the same device size applicability. The test positions $T$ describing this working volume need to maintain the same distance requirements as the calibration antennas throughout the procedure, i.e. reference antenna or DUT shall maintain a distance of more than 0.7 wavelengths from chamber loading and more than 0.5 wavelengths from reflective surfaces. + +The value of the uncertainty contribution is determined by repeated calibration measurements for $T$ different positions and orientations of the calibration antenna to determine the statistical variation as a function of frequency, or at least at the frequencies at which the chamber is to be used. It can be assumed that this uncertainty contribution value is normally distributed. + +The $T$ calibration configurations refer to $T$ reference antenna positions. The operator should select these positions depending on whether or not a turntable is present in the chamber. The following instructions and explanation will assist the operator to perform the measurements. + +If there is a turntable in the RC: + +- Assume a cylindrical working volume by selecting two positions on the turntable (the outermost and innermost radial positions of the turntable are recommended). Then select two elevations (the highest and lowest possible are recommended, but far enough away from absorbent and metallic objects, if any). The cylindrical volume would become a toroid with rectangular cross-section if $R_{\min}$ is non-zero due to proximity effects, as described in [22]. The role of the turntable is to stir the source to obtain more independent samples. + +If there is no turntable in the RC: + +- Choose eight positions as corners of an imaginary cubic volume. This means the recommended heights are the highest and lowest possible, but far enough away from absorbing and metallic objects. + +The test steps are as follows. + +- (a) Choose either a cylindrical or a cubic working volume if there is or is not a turntable in the reverberation chamber. As shown by the red dots in Figure 2, use either the 4 corners of the imaginary rectangle that would form the cylindrical working volume or the 8 corners of the cubic working volume as locations for the measurement. For each location, point the antenna at three different angles, preferably at three orthogonal orientations (e.g., 45 degrees, -45 degrees, and horizontal plane).

Examples of objects that change the loading are phantoms, absorbers, antennas, etc. The calibration procedure must be repeated for each frequency range as defined above. Therefore, it is advantageous if the vector network analyzer can be configured to a frequency sweep covering the defined frequencies, so that all frequencies of interest can be measured with a minimal number of measurements runs. Place all objects into the RC which will be used during TRP or TRS measurements, including a head phantom, hand phantom and fixture for the UE. This ensures that the loss in the chamber, which determines the average power transfer level, is the same during both calibration and test measurements, e.g., TRP and TRS measurements. + +![Diagram of S-parameter measurement setup in a Reverberation Chamber (RC).

A blue line represents the transfer function (S21) from the REF TX to the RX. A label 'DUT Control OFF' is shown below the DUT. + +**Figure 8.4.1-1 S-parameter measurement setup in the RC, using a vector network analyzer** + +**Step-1:** Place the calibration antenna in the chamber. The calibration antenna should be mounted on a low-loss dielectric fixture (i.e., loss tangent less than 0.05), to avoid effects from the fixture itself which may affect the UE's radiation efficiency and mismatch factor. The calibration antenna must be placed in the chamber in such a way that it is far enough from any reflective and/or absorbing material such as walls, mode-stirrers, head phantom, or other object. This is to ensure that the environment for the calibration antenna (taken over the complete stirring sequence) resembles a free space environment. "Far enough away" depends on the type of calibration antenna used. For low gain nearly omni-directional antennas like dipoles, it is normally sufficient to ensure that this spacing is larger than 0.5 wavelengths from reflective objects and 0.7 wavelengths from absorbing objects at the lowest operating frequency. More directive calibration antennas should be oriented towards the center of the chamber. The calibration antenna should remain in the chamber during the TRP/TRS measurements. + +**Step-2:** Calibrate the vector network analyzer with a full 2-port calibration in such a way that the vector complex S-parameters between the ports of the fixed measurement antenna and the calibration antenna can be accurately measured. Preferably, the vector network analyzer is set to perform a frequency sweep at each stirrer position. This will enable calibration of several frequency points during the same stirring sequence, thereby reducing calibration time. This will also enable frequency stirring, i.e., averaging the measured power transfer function over a small frequency bandwidth around each measured frequency point (moving frequency window). This will increase accuracy at the expense of (lower) frequency resolution. + +**Step-3:** Place the calibration antenna in the chamber and connect it through the cables. The same procedure should be done for measurement antenna, if necessary. Measure the S-parameters for each fixed measurement antenna. The number of stirrer positions i.e. the number of S-parameter samples at each frequency point, should be chosen in such a way that it is large enough to yield an acceptable statistical contribution to the total measurement uncertainty. To this aim, at least 250 uncorrelated samples shall be used as defined in TR 37.941 clause 7.8.1 [18]. + +### 8.4.2 Calculation of the chamber reference transfer function + +From the S-parameters obtained in the calibration measurement, the chamber reference transfer function for fixed antenna $n$ can be calculated. The chamber reference transfer function for a fixed measurement antenna can be calculated as + +$$P_{ref} = \frac{1}{M} \sum_{m=1}^M \frac{|S_{21,m}|^2}{(1 - R)(1 - |\overline{S_{22,ref}}|^2)} \cdot \frac{1}{e_{ref}}$$ + +Where $M$ is total number of stirrer positions, $m$ is S-parameter sample number i.e., sampled at stirrer position $m$ , the operator $|\cdot|$ denotes the absolute value, the operator $\overline{\cdot}$ acting on parameter $S_{22,ref}$ denotes the average of complex parameters $S_{22,ref}$ over mode stirring sequence, $S_{22,ref}$ is the reflection coefficient for calibration antenna, $S_{21,m}$ is sample number $m$ of the transfer function for the measurement antenna, $e_{ref}$ is the radiation efficiency of the calibration antenna, and $R$ is the reflection coefficient for the fixed antenna and can be calculated as + +$$R = \left| \frac{1}{M} \sum_{m=1}^M S_{11,m} \right|^2 = |\overline{S_{11}}|^2$$ + +Where $S_{11,m}$ is sample number $m$ of the reflection coefficient for a fixed antenna and $\overline{S_{11}}$ is the average of reflection coefficient. + +Note that the radiation efficiency of the fixed antenna is not corrected for, because it will be the same both during calibration and measurements. Therefore, the fixed antenna's radiation efficiency will not affect the final results. + +## 8.5 TRP Test procedure + +### 8.5.1 TRP for SA and EN-DC + +#### 8.5.1.1 Test conditions + +The TRP of the DUT is measured by sampling the S-parameters through a mode-stirring sequence and using these parameters to estimate the average power measured by any fixed measurement antenna. This data is used to determine the TRP values measured in the reverberation chamber. The measurement is performed with a step-mode stirring sequence and a frequency stirrer can be used. + +#### 8.5.1.2 UE configurations + +For devices containing multiple Tx antennas, the Tx Antenna Switching (TAS) function should be OFF, and the TRP should be measured for each Tx antenna individually. The antenna with better TRP is identified as the primary antenna, and the corresponding TRP result will be used to determine the pass/fail compliance.

The measurement should be carried out based on the detailed test parameters for each band, as defined in Clause 4.3. The UL output power of LTE carrier should be set as a constant power of 10dBm, while measuring NR at maximum output power, i.e., with fixed p-MaxEUTRA-r15=10 dBm, and p-NR-FR1 not configured. + +#### 8.5.1.3 Test procedure + +For TRP measurement, the evaluations shall be performed at maximum transmit power. The measurement procedure includes the following steps: + +1. Place the DUT inside the test zone. +2. Connect the DUT through the cables/chamber to the instrument and ensure the DUT is transmitting at its maximum power. +3. Measure the power at each measurement point, and calculate the TRP by averaging over the sampling sequence. At least [150] uncorrelated measurement samples shall be used. The loss of the entire transmission path must be compensated. + +The TRP value is calculated using the TRP equation in the definition outlined in 5.1.2. + +## 8.6 TRS Test procedure + +### 8.6.1 TRS for SA and EN-DC + +#### 8.6.1.1 Test conditions + +The TRS of the DUT is based on searching for the lowest power received by UE for a discrete number of field combinations in the chamber. The power received by the UE at each discrete field combination that provides a BER (or BLER) which is better than the specified target BER/BLER level shall be averaged with other such measurements using different field combinations. The TRS of the DUT is estimated by measuring the transfer function for each fixed measurement antenna, which gives the BER threshold. + +#### 8.6.1.2 UE configurations + +For Standalone, the NR System Simulator (SS) and DUT shall be configured per section 7.3.2 (Reference sensitivity power level) of TS 38.521-1 [5] using the defaults specified in TS 38.521-1 [5] and TS 38.508-1 [7] as applicable.

The measurement should be carried out based on the detailed test parameters for each band, as defined in Clause 4. The UL power configuration for LTE and NR is 50%-50% power splitting, i.e., + +- For PC3, p-MaxEUTRA-r15=20 dBm, and p-NR-FR1= 20dBm; +- For PC2, p-MaxEUTRA-r15=23 dBm, and p-NR-FR1= 23dBm. + +#### 8.6.1.3 Test procedure + +For TRS measurement, the evaluations shall be performed at maximum transmit power.

The downlink power step size shall be no more than 0.5 dB when the RF power level is near the NR sensitivity level. At least [100] uncorrelated measurement sampling points shall be used. + +The TRS value is calculated using the equation outlined in 5.2.2. + +## 8.7 Test Volume + +The reverberation chamber shall have a volume large enough to support the number of modes needed for the stated accuracy at the lowest operating frequency. If the UE/MS is moved around in the chamber during the measurement, the volume of the reverberation chamber can be reduced. In addition to the physical chamber size considerations, the test volume of the chamber must be large enough to place a reference antenna/test object at a minimum distance of one-half wavelength, i.e., $\lambda/2$ from the chamber walls, mode stirrers, and other electromagnetic reflective objects within the chamber, and 0.7 wavelengths from absorbing objects at the lowest test frequency. + +# 9 Testing time reduction methodologies + +## 9.1 General + + + +## 9.2 Measurement grids for Anechoic Chamber method + +The measurement grid simulations relied on representative antenna patterns for smartphone UEs. + +For below 3 GHz, the device simulated is a flip-phone with dual-band GSM antenna and a separate Bluetooth antenna and is shown in Figure 9.2-1 in the BHR configuration.

| +| Step 6: Calculate the standard deviation of the 10k different TRPs and the mean error from the reference TRP | | | | + +Various constant-step size grids were analysed for two TRP quadratures, i.e., $\sin(\theta)$ , the legacy quadrature, and the Clenshaw-Curtis approach. Both are currently permissible for TRP/TRS testing. The calculated standard deviations and mean errors for both quadratures are tabulated in Table 9.2-2 for below 3 GHz and in Table 9.2-3 for beyond 3 GHz. The last column includes a background colour with the following formatting + +- No coloured background means the std. deviation is less than 0.05dB, i.e., that this grid could be used without any additional MU impact +- yellow means the std. deviation is between 0.05dB and 0.25dB, i.e., this grid could be used with a small impact in MU +- red means the std. deviation is beyond 0.25dB, i.e., these grids should not be considered any further. + +The mean error column includes similar formatting where grids that yield an absolute value mean error between 0.05 and 0.25 dB are highlighted in yellow. These measurement grids might require a new MU element, or the mean error is included in the TIS calculation somehow. Grids with a red highlight have an absolute value of the mean error of greater than 0.25 dB and should be avoided. + +Clearly, the Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature has lower uncertainties compared to the $\sin(\theta)$ quadrature, especially for very coarse grids. + +**Table 9.2-2: Standard deviations and mean errors of TRPs after applying 10k rotations for various constant-step size measurement grids for below 3 GHz** + +| Constant Step-Size Grid | | | Standard Deviation [dB] | Mean Error [dB] | +|------------------------------------|--------------------|-----------------|----------------------------------|----------------------------------| +| $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi [^\circ]$ | # of unique points | Quadrature | Aggregate (pooling all Patterns) | Aggregate (pooling all Patterns) | +| 1 | 64442 | Clenshaw-Curtis | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 5 | 2522 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 10 | 614 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 15 | 266 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 30 | 62 | | 0.01 | 0.00 | +| 45 | 26 | | 0.05 | -0.01 | +| 60 | 14 | | 0.11 | -0.01 | +| 1 | 64442 | $\sin(\theta)$ | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 5 | 2522 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 10 | 614 | | 0.00 | -0.01 | +| 15 | 266 | | 0.01 | -0.02 | +| 30 | 62 | | 0.04 | -0.09 | +| 45 | 26 | | 0.11 | -0.21 | +| 60 | 14 | | 0.26 | -0.38 | + +**Table 9.2-3: Standard deviations and mean errors of TRPs after applying 10k rotations for various constant-step size measurement grids for beyond 3 GHz** + +| Constant Step-Size Grid | | | Standard Deviation [dB] | Mean Error [dB] | +|----------------------------------------|--------------------|-----------------|----------------------------------|----------------------------------| +| $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi$ [ $^\circ$ ] | # of unique points | Quadrature | Aggregate (pooling all Patterns) | Aggregate (pooling all Patterns) | +| 1 | 64442 | Clenshaw-Curtis | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 5 | 2522 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 15 | 266 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 30 | 62 | | 0.11 | -0.01 | +| 45 | 26 | | 0.22 | -0.09 | +| 60 | 14 | | 0.34 | 0.05 | +| 1 | 64442 | sin(theta) | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 5 | 2522 | | 0.00 | 0.00 | +| 15 | 266 | | 0.01 | -0.03 | +| 30 | 62 | | 0.11 | -0.11 | +| 45 | 26 | | 0.27 | -0.33 | +| 60 | 14 | | 0.43 | -0.37 | + +Another important set of analyses was performed for the constant-step size grids beyond 3 GHz where the EIRP at the pole of $\theta = 180^\circ$ was either set to a very small number/null (due to a potential blockage due to the positioner/pedestal), extrapolated from the second to last cut (mean of all EIRPs), or extrapolated from two neighbouring points $15^\circ$ off the pole, i.e., EIRP( $\theta=165^\circ, \phi=0^\circ$ ) and EIRP( $\theta=165^\circ, \phi=180^\circ$ ). Those results for the standard deviations and the mean errors summarized in Table 9.2-4 and 9.2-5, respectively. From the standard deviations in 9.2-4, it can be observed that the impact of how the EIRP at $\theta = 180^\circ$ is treated has little effect for measurement grids as coarse as 26 grid points while a small increase in standard uncertainty can be seen for the coarsest grid with 14 points regardless of whether the final grid point does not yield a reasonable measurement or whether it is extrapolated from the second to last cut. When the pole point is not measured and considered to be a deep null, unacceptable mean errors are observed for very coarse grids. The mean errors in Table 9.2-5 show that the averaging of the pole from the 2nd to last cut or the extrapolation of the two point $15^\circ$ off the pole yield very good agreement with the previous simulations that assume the grid point at the pole can be measured without any obstruction/blockage. Those two approaches are illustrated in Figure 9.2-14 for a measurement grid using the $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=45^\circ$ grid where the grid point at $\theta=180^\circ$ (shown in blue) is extrapolated either using 8 existing measurements at $\theta=135^\circ$ (shown in red) on the left or with two new grid points at $\theta=165^\circ$ (shown in red) on the right. The advantage of the more extrapolation approach using two new grid points at $\theta=165^\circ$ becomes more evident when considering the coarsest measurement grid presented here, i.e., $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=60^\circ$ , which could be considered for IoT or RedCap devices in the future. The extrapolation approach of the grid point at $\theta=180^\circ$ that relies on either on the existing 8 measurements at $\theta=135^\circ$ or the two close neighbours at $\theta=165^\circ$ is considered necessary for above 3 GHz TRP measurement grids for the most accurate extrapolation and lowest MUs. + +![Figure 9.2-14: Illustration of extrapolation approaches for the Δθ=Δφ=45° grid.

A technique for calculating the total measurement uncertainty is also presented. + +An important part of a standard measurement procedure is the identification of uncertainty sources and the evaluation of the overall measurement uncertainty. There are various individual uncertainty sources in the measurement procedure that introduce a certain uncertainty contribution to the final measurement result. The approach in this standard test procedure is that the test laboratories are not limited to using some specific instruments and antenna positioners, for example. + +The TRP/TRS measurement procedure can be considered to include two stages. In Stage 1 the calibration of the absolute level of the DUT measurement results is performed by means of using a calibration antenna whose absolute gain/radiation efficiency is known at the frequencies of interest. In Stage 2 the actual measurement of the 3-D pattern of the Device Under Test (DUT) is performed. The uncertainty contributions are analysed in clause B.2 while the uncertainty budget and example tables related to TRP and TRS are listed in clauses B.4 and B.5 respectively. + +The calculation of the uncertainty contribution is based on the Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement [10]. Each individual uncertainty is expressed by its Standard Deviation (termed here as 'standard uncertainty') and represented by symbol $U$ . The uncertainty contributions can be classified to two categories: Type-A uncertainties, which are statistically determined e.g. by repeated measurements, and Type-B uncertainties, which are derived from existing data e.g. data sheets. Several individual uncertainties are common in Stage 1 and Stage 2 and therefore cancel. + +The procedure of forming the uncertainty budget is: + +- 1) Compile lists of individual uncertainty contributions for TRP or TRS measurement in both Stage 1 and Stage 2. +- 2) Determine the standard uncertainty of each contribution by + - a) Determining the distribution of the uncertainty (Actual, U-shaped, rectangular, normal, etc.) + - b) Determining the maximum value of each uncertainty (unless the distribution is Actual) + - c) Calculating the standard uncertainty by dividing the uncertainty by $\sqrt{2}$ if the distribution is U-shaped, by $\sqrt{3}$ if the distribution is rectangular, and by 2 if the distribution is normal. +- 3) Convert the units (if necessary) of each uncertainty element into the chosen unit, i.e. dB. +- 4) Combine all the standard uncertainties by the root-sum-squares (RSS) method to derive the 'combined standard uncertainty'. +- 5) Multiply the result by an expansion factor of 1.96 to derive expanded uncertainty at 95% confidence level: $1.96 \cdot U_c$ . +- 6) Systematic errors, commonly either DUT or test system dependent, captured in the MU budget are added to the expanded uncertainty to derive the 'total expanded uncertainty', i.e., + +$$u_{c,total\ expanded} = u_{c,expanded} + u_{c,systematic} = 1.96 \sqrt{\sum u_i^2} + \sum u_{i,systematic}$$ + +NOTE 1: The standard deviation from a data set of $N$ samples is defined as + +$$u_i = \sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1} \sum_{k=1}^N |s_k - \bar{s}|^2}$$ + +Where $s_k$ are the respective sample results and $\bar{s}$ the mean of all $N$ samples. For an uncertainty $u_i$ in dB, the dB values (instead of the linear powers) of $s_k$ and $\bar{s}$ are used. + +The combination of uncertainties is performed using dB values for simplicity. It has been shown that using dB uncertainty values gives a slightly worse combined uncertainty result than using linear values for the uncertainties. The analysis method therefore errs on the safe side. + +## B.2 MU contribution descriptions for Anechoic Chamber method + +### B.2.1 Mismatch uncertainty + +If the same chain configuration (e.g. including the measurement receiver; the measurement antenna and other elements) is used in both stages, the uncertainty is considered systematic and constant $\rightarrow$ 0.00dB value. + +If it is not the case, this uncertainty contribution has to be considered and determined by the following methods. + +#### B.2.1.1 Mismatch uncertainty between measurement receiver / communication tester and the measurement antenna + +In a measurement configuration, when two elements (devices, networks) are connected, if the matching is not ideal, there is an uncertainty in the RF level signal passing through the connection.

A gain calibration measurement is repeated with a reasonably differing routing of the feed cable. Largest difference between the results is entered to the uncertainty budget with a rectangular distribution. + +### B.2.4 Measurement receiver: uncertainty of the absolute level + +The receiving device is used to measure the received signal level in TRP tests either as an absolute level or as a relative level. Receiving device used is typically a communication tester, spectrum analyser (SA), or power meter (PM). Generally, there occurs an uncertainty contribution from limited absolute level accuracy and non-linearity. + +This uncertainty will be determined from the manufacturer's datasheet and the distribution used (see clause 5.1.2 in [11]) shall match that provided in the datasheet which are commonly quoting MUs/accuracies with a "95% confidence level" and/or a "coverage factor of 2". In the absence of a declared distribution in the datasheet, the rectangular distribution should be used. Given the wide bandwidths of the modulated signal transmitted during the testing, the level flatness and not just the CW level accuracy shall be considered. + +### B.2.5 Communication tester: uncertainty of the absolute level + +The transmitter device (typically a communication tester or BS simulator) is used to drive a signal to the measurement antenna in sensitivity tests either as an absolute level or as a relative level. Receiving device used is the UE. Generally, there occurs uncertainty contribution from limited absolute level accuracy and non-linearity of the communication tester. + +For practical reasons, the calibration measurement (Stage 1) should be only performed with the measurement antenna as a receiver. Hence, the uncertainty on the absolute level of the transmitter device cannot be assumed as systematic. This uncertainty will be determined from the manufacturer's datasheet and the distribution used (see clause 5.1.2 in [11]) shall match that provided in the datasheet which are commonly quoting MUs/accuracies with a "95% confidence level" and/or a "coverage factor of 2". In the absence of a declared distribution in the datasheet, the rectangular distribution should be used. Furthermore, the uncertainty of the non-linearity of the device is included in the absolute level uncertainty. Given the wide bandwidths of the modulated signal transmitted during the testing, the level flatness and not just the CW level accuracy shall be considered. + +### B.2.6 Sensitivity measurement: output level step resolution + +When output power of the communication tester is swept to reach the throughput target that defines the sensitivity threshold, the final power step resolution represents an asymmetric uncertainty contribution that can be corrected since + +this uncertainty is device and test system independent. The lab shall correct the TRS results by $-0.5 \cdot \text{output level step resolution}$ of the final power step search and note the correction in the test report. + +### B.2.7 Measurement distance + +The uncertainty contribution from a finite measurement distance is estimated differently for Stage 1 and Stage 2. + +#### B.2.7.1 Offset of phase centre from axis(es) of rotation + +##### B.2.7.1.1 Offset of DUT phase centre from axis(es) of rotation + +In all the DUT measurements (Stage 2) defined in this test procedure the DUT and head phantom combination is rotated about the ear reference point of SAM phantom, which is also assumed to be the location of the phase centre in both angular directions of the measurements. + +For some positioning systems this may be practically impossible in which case a measurement uncertainty contribution can arise because the phase centre will rotate on a non-zero radius about the centre of rotation, thereby giving a variable measurement distance. Data averaging process may lead to a partial self-cancel of this uncertainty. + +The uncertainty limits of this effect are calculated by means of the following formula ( $u_{j22}$ of [12]): + +$$\text{Phase centre limits}(\%) = \frac{\pm \text{estimated offset from the axis of rotation}}{\text{range length}} \cdot 100$$ + +To convert this standard uncertainty in dB, we divide it by the standard uncertainty conversion factor (table 1 of [11]): + +$$U_{\text{phase centre offset}}(\text{dB}) = \frac{\pm \text{estimated offset from the axis of rotation}}{\text{range length} \cdot 11.5} \cdot 100$$ + +Because of the phase center can be anywhere between the offset limits, the distribution is assumed to have a rectangular distribution. + +For hand phantom measurements, the device is aligned with the centre of the quiet zone; thus, this MU element is not applicable to hand phantoms and the MU can be considered 0 dB. + +##### B.2.7.1.2 Offset of calibration antenna phase centre from axis(es) of rotation + +If a gain calibration is performed in Stage 1 with a directive antenna (e.g. horn antenna), the uncertainty contribution of calibration antenna's phase centre displacement is estimated by means of the following formula ( $u_{j21}$ of [12]): + +$$\text{Phase centre limits}(\%) = \frac{\pm \text{maximum dimension of the antenna}}{2 \cdot \text{range length}} \cdot 100$$ + +To convert this standard uncertainty in dB, we divide it by the standard uncertainty conversion factor (table 1 of [11]): + +$$U_{\text{phase centre offset}}(\text{dB}) = \frac{\pm \text{maximum dimension of the antenna}}{2 \cdot \text{range length} \cdot 11.5} \cdot 100$$ + +Because the phase centre can be anywhere between the offset limits, the distribution is assumed to have a rectangular distribution. + +If a gain calibration is performed in Stage 1 with omnidirectional calibration antenna (e.g. sleeve dipoles), uncertainty should be 0.00 dB provided that care is taken in their positioning since the phase centre are easily identifiable. + +For an efficiency calibration with an omnidirectional calibration antenna, the $U_{\text{phase centre offset}}$ is calculated similarly as for gain calibration but the uncertainty may be divided by factor 2. This is due to correcting impact of data averaging in this type of calibration. + +#### B.2.7.2 Mutual coupling + +In measurement of radio performances of UMTS mobile phones in speech mode, the mutual coupling uncertainty for this frequency band is a 0.00dB value (see annex A.2 in [13]). + +The 0.00dB value can be extended for NR FR1 band frequencies. + +#### B.2.7.3 Phase curvature + +This uncertainty originates from the finite far-field measurement distance, which causes phase curvature across the DUT. If the minimum measurement distance is respected, this error is assumed to be negligible. + +### B.2.8 Quality of quiet zone + +The uncertainty contribution due to unwanted reflections and obstructions within the anechoic chamber, including imperfect absorber treatments and the impact of positioning equipment support structure, is determined from data acquired using the ripple test methodology in clause 7.4. This data consists of single-axis pattern cuts that represent the sum of direct and reflected rays from a highly symmetrical omnidirectional radiation pattern measured at various points throughout the test volume. The data must be measured in sufficient spatial or angular resolution to accurately capture the peaks and nulls of the pattern to within a small fraction of the overall ripple contribution. In general, the worst-case peak-to-null ripple will reflect the potential error in a peak EIRP or EIS measurement for an omnidirectional DUT pattern located anywhere within the test volume. Note however that nulls in the pattern can exhibit considerably larger errors due to reflected signals being stronger than the line-of-sight signal from the null. + +When measuring the range path loss in Stage 1 using a dipole pattern, the associated measurement uncertainty may be determined from the peak-to-null ripple, after relative path loss compensation, of a single radial offset ripple test, where the range is configured as for range calibration (e.g. with any extraneous support structure removed) using a rectangular distribution. + +For spherically integrated quantities such as TRP and TRS, the peak-to-null ripple would overestimate the measurement uncertainty due to the inherent averaging of the various peaks and nulls as the spherical pattern is integrated. In this case, the surface standard deviation (SSD) [15] is used to obtain a statistical representation of the expected impact of ripple on the integrated power from an isotropic radiator placed anywhere within the test volume. Due to the impracticality of maintaining a constant path loss reference between individual ripple test cuts, each resultant pattern is treated individually and then the worst case SSD result is chosen as the standard uncertainty of the quiet zone. + +For the phi-axis ripple tests, the pattern can be considered an equatorial ( $\theta = 90^\circ$ ) cut of the isotropic pattern where every point has equal weighting on an evenly spaced spherical surface. Thus, the standard deviation of the single cut should be equivalent to the standard deviation of the entire spherical surface. Defining $p_k$ as the $k$ th ripple measurement point in linear power units ( $p_k = 10^{(P_k(\text{dB})/10)}$ ), and $\bar{p}$ as the average of all $p_k$ values in the associated ripple test, then the standard deviation of the corresponding cut is given by: + +$$s(p_k) = \sqrt{\frac{1}{(N-1)} \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} \left(\frac{p_k}{\bar{p}} - 1\right)^2}$$ + +On the theta-axis ripple test each ripple test cut can be considered as a great circle cut through an isotropic pattern with the symmetrical distortions that would be produced by revolving the pattern about the phi ( $0-180^\circ$ ) axis. Thus, it becomes apparent that ripple near the poles impacts a smaller total surface area on the sphere than that near $\theta = 90^\circ$ and $270^\circ$ . In this case, $\sin(\theta)$ weighting is used to generate the spherical surface weighted standard deviation as: + +$$s(p_k) = \sqrt{\frac{1}{N-1} \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} \left[\left(\frac{p_k}{\bar{p}} - 1\right) \sin(\theta_k)\right]^2}$$ + +Note that this equation simplifies to the previous equation when $\theta = 90^\circ$ , so the two formulations are in fact the same, regardless of which orientation of the ripple test is used. + +The standard uncertainty for the quiet zone ripple contribution to the TRP/TRS measurement is then given by the maximum SSD from all of the ripple test measurements. + +### B.2.9 DUT Tx-power drift + +A single point power reference measurement in the beginning and at the end of the measurement procedure is recommended to monitor the power drift of the DUT. Based on TX-power drift measurements for typical 3G UE, an uncertainty of 0.2 dB shall be entered to uncertainty budget with a rectangular distribution. If the drift measurement indicates larger drift, the actual drift shall be included to uncertainty. + +In order to minimize Tx-power drift error it is recommended to interleave sensitivity and power measurement of multiple channels. This spreads the measurements over a longer period, which helps to average the drift of the TX-power. + +Typical TX-power drifts of 3G UE, measured in a single angular point, DUT placed against phantom head are shown in Figure B.2.9-1. + +![Figure B.2.9-1: Output power variation of typical 3G UE during battery life.

The standard SAM head is the specified phantom. However, the use of the other type of SAM is also allowed with the requirement that the resulting uncertainty contribution is considered in the uncertainty budget. + +#### B.2.11.2 Simulated tissue liquid uncertainty + +This uncertainty will occur, if the laboratory uses a liquid which has dielectric parameters deviating more than $\pm 15\%$ of the target parameters. + +#### B.2.11.3 Uncertainty of dielectric properties and shape of the hand phantom + +The hand phantom contributes to OTA measurement uncertainty due to the manufacturing tolerances of its dielectric properties and shape. The dielectric properties on the surface of the hand may differ from those of its interior, so both are included in the evaluation. The moulded exterior surface of the hand shall be measured directly with an open-ended coaxial probe. The interior hand material is evaluated indirectly, by substituting a cube-shaped sample moulded from the same material and having some exterior surfaces removed. Following procedure will be used to evaluate the dielectric properties of the hand phantom; + +1. Each hand shall be manufactured together with a reference cube of the same material. The sides of the reference cube shall be not less than 40 mm in length. + +2. The moulded surface on three orthogonal sides of the cube shall be sliced away to a depth of at least 3 mm, in order to expose interior material for evaluation. The remaining three sides of the cube shall be left untreated. +3. Relative permittivity and conductivity shall be measured at ten different points on each of the three cut, exposed surfaces of the reference cube, and the combined interior averages ( $\epsilon_{int\_avg}$ , $\sigma_{int\_avg}$ , 30 points) and standard deviations ( $\epsilon_{int\_std}$ , $\sigma_{int\_std}$ , 30 points) shall be calculated. Individual interior averages for each of these three sides ( $\epsilon_{int\_i}$ , $\sigma_{int\_i}$ , 10 points) shall also be calculated. +4. Relative permittivity and conductivity shall be measured at ten points on the hand phantom exterior. A measurement point shall be located to each fingertip or as close to the tip as applicable.

For the hands meeting the minimal requirements of step 7, the following approximations shall be used to determine the hand uncertainty due to dielectric properties. + +$$U_\epsilon \text{ [dB]} = c_1 \cdot \left[ 10 \log_{10} \left( 1 + \left| \frac{\sqrt{\Delta \epsilon_{avg}^2 + \epsilon_{unc}^2 + (a_1 \epsilon_{std})^2}}{\epsilon} \right| \right) \right]$$ + +$$U_\sigma \text{ [dB]} = c_2 \cdot \left[ 10 \log_{10} \left( 1 + \left| \frac{\sqrt{\Delta \sigma_{avg}^2 + \sigma_{unc}^2 + (a_1 \sigma_{std})^2}}{\epsilon} \right| \right) \right]$$ + +$\Delta \epsilon_{avg}$ , $\Delta \sigma_{avg}$ , $\epsilon_{std}$ , $\sigma_{std}$ are the values determined as defined above and $\epsilon_{unc}$ and $\sigma_{unc}$ are expanded measurement uncertainties ( $k = 2$ ) of the dielectric parameter measurement method. The cube will be provided together with the hand such that the user can evaluate if the interior (cube) properties of the hand has degenerated over time by performing the test above. Coefficient $c_1 = 0.78$ , $c_2 = 0.39$ and $a_1 = 0.50$ were determined by numeric simulations. + +In case the hand phantoms are manufactured within CAD models, the tolerance is 2% and therefore the effects shape errors are negligible.

The standard Laptop Ground Plane is the specified phantom. + +#### B.2.11.5 Positioning Uncertainty from using Phantoms + +Some uncertainty also occurs from the positioning of the DUT against the SAM phantom, as the DUT cannot be attached exactly in the same way every time. This uncertainty depends on how much the DUT's positioning against the SAM phantom and hand phantoms varies from the specified testing positions. It is noted that the uncertainty of the phone positioning depends on the phone holder and the measurement operator and is in fact difficult to distinguish from random uncertainty. Some uncertainty also occurs from the positioning of the DUT plugged into the Laptop Ground Plane phantom, as the DUT may not be plugged into the USB connector and positioned exactly in the same way every time. This uncertainty depends on how much the DUT's position plugged into the Laptop Ground Plane phantom varies from the specified plug-in position. Therefore, the positioning uncertainty is included in random uncertainty. + +To estimate this uncertainty for the SAM phantom, it is suggested to perform at least five evaluations of TRP/TRS whereby the device shall be dismounted and newly positioned with a fully charged battery before each test. This measurement set has to be carried out in mid channel of lowest and highest frequency bands utilized by the testing lab, for at least three phones with different type of mechanical design. The values have to be normalized by the mean for each measurement set. As a result, the uncertainty contribution entered to uncertainty budget is the difference between the maximum and minimum normalized values. + +With head and hand phantoms, random uncertainty evaluation may be done separately for each measurement configuration i.e. head only, browsing mode or speech mode. A speech mode random uncertainty evaluation, where both head and hand phantoms are used, can reasonably be considered to be the worst-case scenario and thus random uncertainties in other configurations to be less. + +To estimate this uncertainty for the Laptop Ground Plane phantom, it is suggested to perform at least five evaluations of TRP/TRS for the plug-in position whereby the device shall be dismounted and newly positioned before each test.

Decreasing of sampling density to finite number of samples affects the measurement uncertainty by two + +different errors. First is due to inadequate number of samples and second is a systematic discrimination approximation error in TRP and TRS equations. Different TRP quadratures also have an effect on the MU. + +The grid options for TRP/TRS with associated MUs for constant-step size grids are summarized in Table B.2.12-1. + +**Table B.2.12-1: Grid Options for TRP/TRS with constant-step size grids** + +| Test Metric | Frequency Range | Quadrature | $\Delta\theta[^\circ]$ | $\Delta\phi[^\circ]$ | Min.

However, past system definitions provide an empirical basis for a value. A fixed value of 0.25 dB (half that of FR2 SISO OTA measurements) is suggested for TRP measurements while a fixed value of 0.4 dB is suggested for TRS measurement to include a digital error rate uncertainty. + +### B.2.14 Frequency response + +Test systems might not be able to ensure flat frequency response across the entire channel bandwidth required for testing (e.g. up to 100MHz for NR FR1). When a frequency response correction based on the results from the system calibration measurements in Stage 1 is not possible or practical, this uncertainty has to be considered. + +This uncertainty term can be estimated as described in [14] using the following formula: + +$$\varepsilon_j = 10 \log \left( \frac{\sum_{k=j-N/2}^{j+N/2} PL_k}{(N+1)PL_j} \right)$$ + +where $\varepsilon_j$ is the expected relative error in the average power result for a given channel in dB, $PL_j$ is the linear path loss at the center frequency of the given channel, $PL_k$ is the linear path loss at each frequency point across the corresponding channel, and $N$ is the number of frequency steps across a given channel bandwidth. The maximum deviation $\varepsilon_j$ across all of the possible channels in a band shall be used to estimate the required frequency response uncertainty contribution with a rectangular distribution. + +This error may be removed directly at each frequency, $f_j$ , by using the average path loss across the channel as the range loss correction rather than the path loss at the center frequency as described in [14]. + +For sensitivity measurements, this effect is included in the output level step resolution. + +### B.2.15 Uncertainty of network analyser + +This uncertainty includes the all uncertainties involved in the S21 measurement with a network analyser, and will be determined from the manufacturer's datasheet which is now commonly quoting MUs/accuracies with a "95% confidence level" and/or a "coverage factor of 2" and the distribution used (see clause 5.1.2 in [11]) shall match that provided in the datasheet. In the absence of a declared distribution in the datasheet, the rectangular distribution should be used. + +### B.2.16 Uncertainty of the gain/efficiency of the calibration antenna + +The calibration antenna only appears in Stage 1. Therefore, the gain/efficiency uncertainty has to be considered. + +This uncertainty shall come from a calibration report (which is now commonly quoting MUs/accuracies with a "95% confidence level" and/or a "coverage factor of 2") with traceability to a National Metrology Institute with measurement uncertainty budgets generated following the guidelines outlined in internationally accepted standards. In the absence of a declared distribution in the report, the rectangular distribution should be used. + +## B.3 MU contribution descriptions for Alternative method + +Some of the terms for measurement uncertainty in the Reverberation Chamber method are identical to the reference method (i.e. Anechoic Chamber). Therefore, this section only lists the additional MU contribution description that are unique to the Reverberation Chamber method. + +### B.3.1 Additional Power Loss in EUT Chassis + +When the EUT is small and does not add noticeable loss to the chamber, the calibration procedure outlined in section 8.4, is performed without the EUT present in the chamber. The possible difference in average chamber transmission level between the EUT measurement and the reference measurement must in this case be considered in the uncertainty evaluation. The uncertainty value for this contribution can be tested empirically by choosing a unit within a set of samples which is considered to incur the highest amount of loss (normally the largest unit), and measure the average transmission loss in the chamber with and without the test unit present in the chamber including phantoms if applicable. The difference between the two cases shall be used in the uncertainty calculation and the distribution should be assumed to be rectangular. + +Alternatively, a fixed value of 0.2 dB with a rectangular distribution can be used in the uncertainty calculations. + +### B.3.3 Quality of Spatial Uniformity + +The standard deviation over calibration antenna positions and rotations of the transfer function, chamber reference or chamber loss ( $|S_{21}|^2$ ). This measures the lack of spatial uniformity over the test zone in the reverberation chamber which is also referred as lack of isotropy, statistical ripple, or uniformity of the transfer function. This procedure is detailed in section 8.3.3. + +According to the significance tests performed in [23], the uncertainty due to lack of spatial uniformity is not negligible. In this case, equation 12 in [23] holds and leads to the following uncertainty: + +$$U = \frac{\sigma_{P_{ref}}^{dB}}{\sqrt{T}}$$ + +The expanded uncertainty covers the 95th percentile and is given by + +$$U_{95} = K_{95} * U$$ + +Where $K_{95}$ is the coverage factor for the two-sided 95th percentile of Student's $t$ -distribution given $T-1$ degrees of freedom and corresponds to 2.201 at $T=12$ (11 degrees of freedom) or 2.069 at $T=24$ (23 degrees of freedom). + +### B.3.4 Sensitivity measurement: output level step resolution + +When output power of the communication tester is swept to reach the throughput target that defines the sensitivity threshold, used power step resolution creates this uncertainty. Output power step used in the sensitivity measurement is divided by factor 2 and then a rectangular distribution applied to obtain the uncertainty. + +## B.4 MU Assessment for TRP + +### B.4.1 MU Assessment for TRP in Anechoic Chamber + +The uncertainty contributions related to TRP are listed in Table B.4.1-1.

The value deviates over $1.5 \cdot \text{MU}$ from all the other lab's results should be identified as apparent outlier. +- Pass/fail limit for lab alignment should be defined as $\pm 0.75 \cdot \text{MU}$ (i.e., 1.34dB for TRP, and 1.65dB for TRS) as baseline. MU value is the expanded MU in TR38.834, i.e., 1.78dB for TRP and 2.20dB for TRS. +- The pass/fail limit and reference value shall be considered together if further update identified based on more data input +- The summation form for TRP and TRS lab alignment should keep consistent during the calculation process of TRP TRS lab alignment from each company, i.e., $\sin\theta \cdot \Delta\theta$ weights approach or Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature integral approximation. Only traditional approach should be used during lab alignment activity to reduce unnecessary uncertainty. +- How to treat late submission results and confirm the alignment: + - The reference value and pass/fail limit should be defined in RAN4#103-e meeting. The late submission deadline for phase 2 is Tdoc submission deadline of RAN4#104-e meeting. + - An offline RAN4 conference call may be needed to review lab alignment data to tentatively confirm the pass or fail of late-submitted labs. Final endorsement will happen during RAN4#104e. + - Only measurement results from aligned labs in RAN4#104-e meeting are considered as TRP TRS Performance data pool to define final requirements. + +#### Test lab procedures: + +- LAD delivery scheme + - Decide LAD delivery scheme after all the test lab and LAD information being confirmed. + - The available LADs can be split among labs to multiplex the testing effort +- LAD measurement time in each test lab: finalize LAD measurement within 5 workdays, and deliver to next lab ASAP with LAD delivery In/Out information shared in reflector. +- Encourage test labs to share resulting combined MU based on their own systems + +### F.2.2 Measurement results + +Considering the test burden and urgent timeline, RAN4 decided to select two smartphones (named as LADs, Lab Alignment Devices) as reference DUTs to perform Rel-17 AC lab alignment activity.

This setup was initially considered as the preferred measurement setup for multi-AoA UE RF testing but later discarded for reasons outlined below. + +Such setup was also considered the default measurement setup for FR2 UE RF testing during the SI phase of FR2 OTA testing [3] given the requirement to perform off-centre of beam measurements as illustrated in Figure 5.2.1-1. However, the adoption of the UE Beamlock test Function (UBF), see Clause 5.4 of [5], to readily perform off-centre of beam measurements shifted the focus towards more practical single-AoA/single-probe UE RF setups, e.g., the Indirect Far Field (IFF) methodology [3] which subsequently became the de-facto setup for FR2 UE RF testing. + +![Figure 5.2.1-1: DFF measurement setup of UE RF characteristics for TRP scans.

The Direct Far Field (DFF) methodology, i.e., millimeter-wave measurement probes placed in the far-field away from the DUT when adapted to two-simultaneous AoA testing, is illustrated in Figure 5.2.1-2. Here, the probes introducing AoA1 (beam shown in blue) and AoA2 (beam shown in red) can be positioned arbitrarily while the DUT is fixed. When the DFF probes are replaced with Indirect Far Field (IFF) probes, i.e., measurement probe and reflector, a sample test system with full degrees of freedom for each AoA is shown in Figure 5.2.1-3. The full degree of rotation freedom for each probe is highlighted with the yellow arrows behind each DFF probe/IFF probe&reflector combination. The positioning requirements to accurately position probe(s) along two principal axes in 3D yield a very high positioning complexity. + +![Figure 5.2.1-2: Example DFF measurement setup for two-simultaneous AoA testing with full degrees of freedom for each probe.

The increase in chamber sizes (footprint and heights) when compared to existing FR2 UE RF chambers is significant and existing chambers are not upgradable to support full degrees of freedom. The lead times to develop such systems with full degrees of freedom could be quite significant and could thus delay the commercial adoption of these test cases. Additionally, the overall system complexities of such systems could further require an increase in measurement uncertainties (MUs) and thus test tolerances (TTs). + +**Table 5.2.1-1: Size estimates for UE RF systems with full degrees of freedom for each probe.** + +| Test Method \ Size | Width [m] | Depth [m] | Height [m] | +|--------------------|-----------|-----------|------------| +| DFF | 3.2 | 3.2 | 3.2 | +| IFF | 4.4 | 4.4 | 4.4 | + +Measurement setups that allow full degrees of positioning freedom for one probe and the DUT while the other probe is fixed are shown in Figure 5.2.1-4 for the DFF and Figure 5.2.1-5 for the IFF methodology.

Link antennas are traditionally used to introduce an auxiliary communication link between the gNB and the DUT to avoid poor signal conditions in the non-tested DL or UL (for UL or DL measurements) and thus dropped calls. As no calibrated measurements are performed over this link, this signal path is generally never calibrated and the positioning and link probe requirements are very relaxed, e.g., large positioning uncertainty of the link antenna are acceptable, and the link antenna can be a low performance antenna coupler. Hence, such link antenna setups are not suitable for UE RF measurements. + +In [9], NF methodologies for single-UL and DL were investigated and eventually considered permitted methodologies for FR2 test cases that currently require large relaxations in RAN5 technical specifications. The EIS/EIRP measurements in the immediate NF require very accurate positioning of the NF probe, a high-end antenna probe, and the NF antenna pattern characterization. Given the need for accurate positioning and relatively large NF probe antennas supporting two principal polarizations, antenna(s) and fixturing will result in significant blocking in various AoA1 measurement directions. More importantly, to accurately determine EIS in the NF, it is required to calibrate out the offset of the active DUT antenna from the centre of QZ to account for the correct path loss between the NF measurement probe and the active antenna. This offset can either be determined using a set of measurements which need to be performed for each AoA1 measurement direction (black box approach of CFFNF in Clause 5.1.4 of [9]) or based on a rather extensive vendor declaration, e.g., location of all antenna panels and which antenna is active for any given measurement direction. Applying these NF findings to multi-Rx UE RF testing has the following implications: + +- The vendor declaration would require the exact location of all active antenna pairs for each AoA2 probe direction, i.e., an even more extensive vendor declaration than for single DL EIS measurements +- The NF probe needs to guarantee the same DL conditions to both active DUT receivers as a FF probe would since UE RF requirements are defined in the FF + +This measurement setup has its pros/cons summarized in Table 5.2.1-6. + +Table 5.2.1-6: Overview of Measurement Setup with AoA2 Probes in the NF + +| Description | Full Degrees of Freedom for AoA1 and AoA2 with AoA2 Probe in NF | +|---------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| Probe Offset Option | Variable Angular Offset(s) between AoA1 and AoA2 in the chamber.

A sample system is shown Figure 5.2.4-1 where the AoA1 and AoA2 probes need to be displaced from each other to avoid collisions, i.e., the chamber size estimates need to take the back-to-back probe placement illustrated in Figure 5.2.3-3 into account. As such, the size estimates with all probes in the FF are likely in the order of those listed in Table 5.2.3-1.

The system has reduced flexibility in placing source locations due to a fixed relative location of the sources. If this arrangement is used with a legacy 2 axis positioner, the UE can only be tested with some subset of all possible AoA pairs for a given AoA separation or offset. See Figure 5.2.7.1-1 for a graphical representation of the set of all possible testable AoA pairs by the system described in 5.2.2 in conjunction with a 2-axis positioner and a constant step-size scan. The restriction of the AoA pairings strictly towards one pole or the other can influence the measured 2AoA reception performance of the UE as a function of its orientation in the positioner during test. + +![Figure 5.2.7.1-1: A spherical coordinate system diagram showing grid points (red dots) and associated AoA pairs (blue segments) lying along meridians.](cea5c8233335c952c7f64d6a357f5d80_img.jpg) + +A diagram of a sphere with a grid of red dots representing grid point locations.

This necessitates using a 3-axis positioner in the agreed TE system rather than the legacy 2-axis positioner.

The 3-axis positioner is intended to allow each grid point to be additionally paired with AoAs along the green arrows. These additional directions essentially dismantle the restriction of having test AoA pairs exclusively along meridians of a spherical coordinate system from the UE's perspective. + +Simulated test runs with a UE with modules on adjacent confirms the intended enhancement removes sensitivity to UE orientation, see Figure 5.2.7.1-3.

The ‘inside’ 2-axis positioner could be implemented as an azimuth-roll set-up (legacy geometry), an elevation-azimuth type positioner or other equivalent type. The ‘fixed’ aspect of the outside roll-motor refers to the fact that its stator would be statically positioned relative to the source locations, with its shaft axis pointed at one of the sources. This target source’s AoAs define the grid where the UE’s performance is evaluated.

The blue and the green shafts represent the ‘inside’ 2-axis positioner, and they are together mounted on the outside roll motor shaft (red items). Two options are shown for the implementation of the ‘inside’ 2-axis positioner: azimuth-elevation and azimuth-roll. The latter option allows continuity with the legacy positioner grid and geometry. Detail design work is needed to adequately hide the motors to reduce the prospect of blockage, as well as other details like bringing the articulation axes closer; these are up to TE implementation. In either implementation the ‘outside’ roll motor is ground referenced like the sources and points to one of them, say S1 (grey body in the figures below). + +![Figure 5.2.7.2-2: Bias reducing 3-axis positioner concepts.

Blocking is an important consideration for 2TRP connectivity. With the agreed TE with the legacy 2-axis positioner, both sources must be confined to a $180^\circ$ sector in the horizontal plane, to stay out of the $180^\circ$ swing of the azimuth motion of the positioner. With the proposed 3-axis positioner however, the roll axis of the outside motor is fixed to point to one of the sources, and the system loses its rotational symmetry. This means that the new positioner mechanism cannot be equally hidden from both sources for all AoA separations like the strategy used with the legacy positioner. There are two types of source blockages to navigate: + +1. Source blockage due to inside positioner mechanics. +2. Source blockage due to outside roll-motor arm to which the inside positioner is mounted. + +The blocking situation is more realistically depicted in Figure 5.2.7.3-1 in the form of a sequence of typical outside roll motor actuation. Note that azimuth and source separation sum up to $180^\circ$ , a relationship that is identified as the main condition for blocking to occur. This configuration depicts instances of both types of blockage. The red dotted highlight shows S2 blockage due to the inside positioner, while the blue dotted highlight shows S2 blockage due to the arm mounted to the outside motor. + +![Figure 5.2.7.3-1: Blockage issue with 3-axis positioner, viewed from azimuth axis.

At 120° and 180°, the inside positioner (red dashed circle) blocks the line of sight to Source 2. At 240° and 300°, the outside motor arm (blue dashed circle) blocks the line of sight to Source 2.

Arrows indicate the clockwise progression of the roll angle. + +**Figure 5.2.7.3-1: Blockage issue with 3-axis positioner, viewed from azimuth axis.** + +Blockage due to the insider positioner: + +Even if the reduced azimuth motion (per hemisphere) of the inside 2-axis positioner is reduced to $[0-90^\circ]$ , the outside roll motor would swing the 'inside' positioner into the LOS of the second source for source separations of $90^\circ$ or more. Conceptually, the blockage occurs when the second source (S2) approaches the pole of the grid where the inside positioner is located. This blockage condition is not due to the choice of positioner, but instead due to the choice to test each point with AoA pairs in more directions than just along meridians. + +This situation manifests for all grid points whose theta coordinate approaches the supplementary angle $(180-x)$ to the source separation angle. Furthermore, blocking may only occur for some subset of outside-motor roll angles. See Figure + +5.2.7.3-2. For perspective, it is useful to remember that this blockage condition is not due to the choice of positioner, but instead due to the choice to test each point with AoA pairs in more directions. + +![Diagram illustrating the blockage issue due to the inside positioner of a 3-axis positioner.

For the opposite hemisphere scan, the second source would flip over to near the north pole and the first source would also flip but it will remain clear of the south pole, provided AoA separation is not $180^\circ$ . So, a blocked AoA in one hemisphere scan is not blocked during the opposite hemisphere scan. Another detail is that for the blocked AoA pairs, the second source location is now the one near the north pole (originally designated S1). It may not fall on the originally chosen grid, but that should not matter to the 'inside' positioner. The external roll motor can then position the flipped first source (originally designated S2) at the desired location in the southern hemisphere. Since the AoA pair reorganization can be done a-priori, there is no foreseen test time impact. + +To summarize, a 'no-block' strategy to dodge the inside positioner can be implemented by exchanging some pre-identified test AoAs across the two hemisphere scans. Since the blocked region is essentially due to the mechanical outline of the inside positioner, it is up to TE implementation to treat the considerations presented below: + +1. Various motion transfer schemes can be leveraged to reduce the shadow region, which reduces the number of AoA pairs that may be blocked. +2. It would be mathematically consistent to re-orient the sample points on the circle (locus of second source during the outside motor roll) to reduce blockage. i.e., move all stops for the external roll motor for that grid point by some convenient angle to avoid the shadow region. + +Blockage due to outside positioner arm: + +As the outside motor's is stopped at any grid point, some stops will cause the mechanics carrying the inside positioner to block the source. The strategy is to leverage multiple different mechanical configurations to achieve the same UE pointing direction relative to the two sources. An example is shown below for a given UE pointing direction. + +| TE coordinates | Option 1 | Option 2 | +|----------------------|----------|----------------------| +| Outside roll (deg) | $\alpha$ | $\alpha + 180^\circ$ | +| Inside azimuth (deg) | $\beta$ | $-\beta$ | +| Inside roll (deg) | $\gamma$ | $\gamma + 180^\circ$ | + +Since the same orientation is achieved with two different outside roll settings, the TE retains a way to dodge a blockage condition induced by the outside motor angular position. The following views of the system in a configuration that demonstrate the blocking issue endemic to testing each point with at least 3 equally spatially distributed AoA pairs. + +Sources are shown as flat discs. Source separation angle is $150^\circ$ . Chosen grid point for illustration is S1 at $\theta=30^\circ$ , $\phi = -45^\circ$ . Note that azimuth and source separation sum up to $180^\circ$ , a relationship that is identified as the main condition for blocking to occur. Geometries are not optimized for blockage reduction. + +The highlighted view is an example of how the outside motor arm can impede line of sight between the UE and source S2. In the illustration below, an alternative set of coordinates achieve the same UE orientation relative to the sources, but the arm is no longer in a blocking location. This strategy is an example of a no-block strategy for the outside motor.

One could seemingly argue that the roll motor of the DUT (rotation around the DUT $z$ axis) makes it irrelevant whether AoA2 is along the $y$ or the $x$ axis. However, once the device is rotated in 3D, i.e., $\theta$ and $\phi$ , this argument is no longer applicable which is further analysed and illustrated below. For a second sample device orientation of $(\theta, \phi) = (45^\circ, -45^\circ)$ , the perceived DL directions are illustrated on the rotated DUT grid in Figure 5.3.1-2. Clearly, a $90^\circ$ rotation of the device around its $z$ axis would no longer map the green sphere onto the red sphere. + +![Figure 5.3.1-2: Sample measurement setup with three fixed probe locations for test point of (45°, -45°).](c8f2f0357b99e801b1b0bb5faecf0787_img.jpg) + +The diagram shows a 3D measurement setup.

Clearly, these results show vastly different results. + +- For the probe aligned with the z axis, the perceived DL directions match the test points. +- For the probe aligned with the y axis, the DUT only perceives the DL in a single plane only, i.e., the DUT's xy plane. This is due to the turntable axis of the OTA positioner aligned with the y axis, i.e., the turntable rotation merely changes the polarization but not the DL direction with this probe. The roll motor, i.e., the rotation of the DUT around its z axis, only adjusts the DL direction within the xy plane. +- For the AoA2 probe aligned with the x axis, the DL directions are perceived from different directions in $(\theta, \phi)$ but limited to a single hemisphere only. + +The plots of the perceived DL directions from different, fixed probes demonstrate the need to define the absolute probe locations/directions for UE RF systems so that different test systems yield the same results. + +**Table 5.3.1-2: DL directions perceived by the DUT from probes in the $x$ , $y$ , and $z$ axes.** + +| Probe Along Direction | DL Directions perceived by DUT with constant-step size grid with 266 unique grid points ( $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=15^\circ$ ) | DL Directions perceived by DUT with constant density grid with 200 unique grid points | +|-----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| $z$ | 3D plot of a sphere with a grid of 266 blue probe points.

It is estimated that the minimum angular separation between two IFF probes is about $30^\circ$ while the minimum angular separation between two DFF probes is about $5^\circ$ . + +Although DFF is one of the permitted methodologies for FR2 OTA testing [10], IFF is the de-facto reference methodology for FR2 OTA measurements. To enable the applicability of IFF to multi-AoA UE RF testing [3, 12], the largest minimum angular separation of DFF and IFF must be selected, i.e., the minimum angular separation between probes must be $30^\circ$ . + +![Illustration of minimum angular separations between IFF and DFF probes.](cf504c5f59d17aff988b7c672a829d5c_img.jpg) + +The diagram illustrates the minimum angular separation for two types of probe configurations. The top part, labeled 'IFF', shows two vertically aligned, elongated, curved probes. A horizontal dashed line extends from the center of the lower probe, and a diagonal dashed line extends from the top probe to the right. The angle between these two lines is labeled 'Min. Angular Separation'. The bottom part, labeled 'DFF', shows two vertically aligned, horn-shaped probes. Similarly, a horizontal dashed line extends from the center of the lower probe, and a diagonal dashed line extends from the top probe to the right. The angle between these two lines is also labeled 'Min. Angular Separation'. + +Illustration of minimum angular separations between IFF and DFF probes. + +**Figure 5.3.2-1: Illustration of minimum angular separations between IFF (top) and DFF probes.** + +The maximum angular separation between probes could be as large as $180^\circ$ . However, this angular separation would result in significant blocking between one AoA probe and the DUT positioner, as illustrated in Figure 5.3.2-2, and the line-of-sight path between both probes also introduce a significant amount of coupling. It was therefore suggested to limit the maximum angular separation between probes/AoAs to $150^\circ$ (blue reflector/probe in Figure 5.3.2-2). + +![Figure 5.3.2-2: Illustration of maximum proposed angular separation including blocking for angular separation of 180°.

As illustrated in Figure 5.3.2-3, the two dark grey reflectors with 180° separation illuminate each other with plane waves, i.e., without much attenuation; scattering from the metal surfaces including edges of the reflector will thus reflect energy back towards the source probe. On the other hand, the cross coupling between the reflector at 0° and the red or blue reflectors is minimized as they are not in each other's direct path. It was argued that the cross coupling between the two opposing reflectors should be insignificant given the large separation and thus large path losses. However, the reflectors are in each other's collimated beam's path, i.e., signal from the right reflector arriving at the left reflector should not have experienced much of an attenuation when compared to the signal at the QZ. + +It should furthermore be highlighted that 2 AoA RRM systems currently limit the maximum separation between probes to 150° [12], specifically Table A.3.15.3-1. + +Requiring a 180° separation for multi-AoA Rx testing would therefore not allow a re-use of existing 2 AoA RRM systems as they would not be able to support the larger separation. + +![Figure 5.3.2-3: Illustration of maximum proposed angular separation including blocking for angular separation of 180°.

For simplicity, sample test systems with just 4 total probes (1 AoA1 probe and 3 AoA2 probes) are considered next. Here, the AoA2 probes are displaced by $60^\circ$ (P60), $120^\circ$ (P120), and $150^\circ$ (P150) from the AoA1 probe placed along the z direction (P0). As illustrated in Table 5.3.3-2, one system configuration has the AoA2 probes aligned in the xz plane (left), and another system configuration has the AoA2 probes aligned in the yz plane (right). Aside from studying the effect of different probe locations on the perceived DL directions, the two different 3D approaches are investigated as well, i.e., by rotating the device a full turn in $\phi$ (rotation axis z) and a half turn in $\theta$ (rotation axis y) as shown the top of Table 5.3.3-2 and alternatively, a full turn in $\theta$ (rotation axis y) and a half turn in $\phi$ (rotation axis z) as shown the bottom of Table 5.3.3-2. + +The following analyses for constant step-size grids take into account that multiple measurements at the pole for P0 are performed; while these measurements yield unique DL directions for P0, they translate to non-unique DL directions for P60, P120, and P150. + +Table 5.3.3-2: System configurations with probes in the xz plane (left) and yz plane (right). 3D scan performed with full rotation in $\phi$ and half rotation in $\theta$ (top) and with full rotation in $\theta$ and half rotation in $\phi$ (bottom) + +| | Probes in the xz plane | Probes in the yz plane | +|----------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| 3D Scan: full rotation in $\phi$ and half rotation in $\theta$ |

| + +The system configurations with full rotation in $\phi$ and half rotation in $\theta$ and the perceived DL directions are further illustrated in Table 5.3.3-3 for a constant-step size grid with 312 grid points and in Table 5.3.3-4 for a constant density grid with 200 grid points. Similarly, the system configurations with full rotation in $\theta$ and half rotation in $\phi$ and the perceived DL directions are further illustrated in Table 5.3.3-5 for a constant-step size grid with 312 grid points and in Table 5.3.3-6 for a constant density grid with 200 grid points. The following observations can be made from these results: + +- Probes aligned in the $yz$ plane introduce large keep-out areas for the angular coverage/DL directions towards each pole. +- With full rotation in $\phi$ and half rotation in $\theta$ , probes aligned in the $xz$ plane introduce a conical sector towards the pole at $\theta=0^\circ$ with no angular coverage/DL directions for offset probes. +- Constant density grids do not maintain the constant density coverage/DL direction distribution for probes offset from P0, a higher density of DL directions is observed especially near the poles. +- When probes are aligned in the $xz$ plane, constant-step size grids maintain the constant-step size distribution of DL directions for probes offset from P0. +- Probes aligned in the $xz$ plane generally provide a wider angular coverage for AoA2 DL directions when compared to probes aligned in the $yz$ plane. +- With full rotation in $\theta$ and half rotation in $\phi$ and probes aligned in the $xz$ plane, the AoA2 DL directions are distributed in 3D without a conical region with lack of coverage. +- Only with full rotation in $\theta$ and half rotation in $\phi$ , probes aligned in the $xz$ plane, and constant-step size grids, uniform angular coverage/DL directions is achieved, i.e., the distribution of DL directions for all probes on the $xz$ plane match the distribution of grid points. + +Based on the observations made in this section, the following decisions were made: + +- For optimized AoA1 and AoA2 test point/perceived DL direction coverage, apply a full rotation in $\theta$ and a half rotation in $\phi$ . +- For optimized AoA1 and AoA2 test point/perceived DL direction coverage, utilize constant-step size grids only. +- For optimized AoA1 and AoA2 test point/perceived DL direction coverage, place the AoA2 probes in the $xz$ plane + +Table 5.3.3-3: DL directions perceived by the DUT from two different system configurations with AoA2 to AoA1 probe offsets of 60°, 120°, and 150° with a constant-step-size grid using 312 grid points ( $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=15^\circ$ ).

A 3D sphere with a gray latitude/longitude grid. Numerous red dots are scattered across the surface, primarily concentrated on the left and top-left regions from this perspective. A 3D coordinate system is centered in the sphere: a green arrow labeled 'y' points upward, a blue arrow labeled 'z' points to the left, and a red arrow labeled 'x' points towards the bottom right.

A 3D sphere with a gray grid, similar to the one above but with green dots. The green dots are distributed more uniformly across the visible surface compared to the red dots, though still slightly more concentrated in the upper hemisphere. The coordinate system (y-up, z-left, x-down-right) is present.

For better visualization purposes, a coarse measurement grid with 84 grid points for the constant-step size grid ( $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=30^\circ$ ) and 50 grid points for the constant density grid is considered. + +The DL directions and polarizations perceived by the DUT for a sample system with the AoA1 probe in the $z$ direction and AoA2 probes in the $x$ and $y$ directions are presented in Table 5.3.4-1 for just the constant-step size grid. The magenta arrows demonstrate the $\theta$ polarization while the orange arrows demonstrate the $\phi$ polarization with respect to the probe antenna/system coordinate system. Clearly, for the probes placed in the $z$ and $x$ directions, the DL polarizations w.r.t. the DUT coordinate system are preserved, i.e., the probe antenna DL $\theta/\phi$ polarization matches the DUT $\theta/\phi$ polarization. However, for the probe along the $y$ axis, the DL polarization perceived by the DUT changes depending on grid point. Similar observations can be made for a system configuration with multiple AoA2 probes placed on the $xz$ and the $yz$ planes. The system configurations with full rotation in $\phi$ and half rotation in $\theta$ and the perceived DL directions are further illustrated in Table 5.3.4-2 for the constant-step size grid and in Table 5.3.4-3 for the constant density grid. Similarly, the system configurations with full rotation in $\theta$ and half rotation in $\phi$ and the perceived DL directions are further illustrated in Table 5.3.4-4 for the constant-step size grid and in Table 5.3.4-5 for the constant density grid. + +These results again show that the probe antenna DL $\theta/\phi$ -polarizations from AoA2 probes (w.r.t. the system coordinate system) are preserved only when the AoA2 probes are placed in the $xz$ plane, i.e., antenna DL $\theta/\phi$ polarizations map to DUT $\theta/\phi$ polarizations, while this is no longer the case for AoA2 probes are placed in the $yz$ plane, i.e., probe antenna DL $\theta/\phi$ polarizations generally map to a combination of DUT $\theta/\phi$ polarizations. + +Table 5.3.4-1: DL direction and polarizations perceived by the DUT from probes in the x, y, and z axes. + +| | DL Directions perceived by DUT with constant-step size grid with 84 grid points ( $\Delta\theta=\Delta\phi=30^\circ$ ).

The calibration process determines the composite loss, $L_{\text{path,pol}}$ , of the entire transmission and receiver chain path gains (measurement antenna, amplification) and losses (switches, combiners, cables, path loss, etc.). The calibration measurement is repeated for each measurement path (two orthogonal polarizations and each signal path).

And the SINR can be rewritten as: + +$$SINR1_{BB} \approx \frac{S1 * G1 * Loss}{(S2 + N) * G2 * Loss + N * G1 * Loss} = \frac{1}{\left(\frac{S2}{S1} + \frac{1}{SNR1}\right) * \frac{G2}{G1} + \frac{1}{SNR1}}, \quad (6.2.2.1-2)$$ + +where SINR1 is the SINR from probe 1, and the key parameter affecting the SINR at baseband is G1/G2. + +Similarly, the SINR at baseband for multi-DCI with partially overlapping scheme is given as: + +$$SINR1 \approx \frac{1}{\left(\frac{\alpha * S2}{S1} + \frac{1}{SNR1}\right) * \frac{G2}{G1} + \frac{1}{SNR1}}, \quad (6.2.2.1-3)$$ + +where $\alpha$ indicates the ratio of overlapping resources ( $0 < \alpha < 1$ ). + +For multi-Rx with non-overlapping scheme, the interference between two AoAs can be ignored. Then the test parameters for Mode 1 in the legacy RRM test methodology specified in [3] can be reused. + +#### 6.2.2.2 Test parameters for Mode 2 + +For Mode 2, the SINR at baseband for multi-DCI with overlapping scheme is given as follows: + +$$SINR1_{BB} = \frac{S1 * G1 * Loss}{S2 * G2 * Loss + Noise\_floor}, \quad (6.2.2.2-1)$$ + +where S1 and S2 are signal level from AoA1 and AoA2 respectively. G1 and G2 are the antenna gain from AoA1 and AoA2 respectively. Loss is the pathloss between probe and DUT. Noise\_floor is the total noise at DUT baseband receiver. + +If we set the signal level from interfering AoA direction at reference point is 6dB higher than UE thermal noise, then the approximate SINR can be rewritten as follows: + +$$SINR1_{BB} \approx \frac{S1}{S2 * G2 / G1}. \quad (6.2.2.2-2)$$ + +Same as for Mode 1, and the key parameter affecting the SINR at baseband is G1/G2. + +Similarly, the SINR at baseband for multi-DCI with partially overlapping scheme is given as follows: + +$$SINR1_{BB} \approx \frac{S1}{\alpha * S2 * \frac{G2}{G1}}, \quad (6.2.2.2-3)$$ + +where $\alpha$ indicates the ratio of overlapping resources ( $0 < \alpha < 1$ ). + +For multi-Rx with non-overlapping scheme, the interference between two AoAs can be ignored.

For multi-Rx chain DL reception demodulation testing, RAN4 recommend the target of the required SNR difference between with and without additional interference introduced by chamber, i.e., MU due to non-ideal isolation, is 1dB. The final minimum isolation and corresponding MU defer the discussion to RAN5. + +# --- 8 Summary + +This technical report defines the UE RF/RRM/demodulation test methodology for the verifications of these new requirements for FR2 UE with multi-Rx chain DL receptions. Through the analysis of system complexity, chamber footprint, upgradeability of existing system, development lead time, measurement uncertainty, and test time aspects, the agreements on measurement setup of UE RF/RRM/demodulation testing are as follows. + +For UE RF testing, the measurement setup with full degrees of freedom for AoA1 with fixed angular Offset(s) between AoA1 and AoA2 is selected as the baseline. + +For UE RRM testing, the measurement setup supporting Dual TCI switches from one probe to two probes simultaneously is selected as the baseline. + +For UE demodulation testing, the measurement setup for UE RF testing can be reused to demodulation testing and the "virtual cable" approach is adopted per each multi-Rx chain. + +Additionally, the preliminary measurement uncertainty budget is specified in the document and the final MU will be further discussed and decided by RAN5. + +# --- Annex A: Measurement uncertainty --- + +## A.1 Measurement uncertainty budget for UE RF testing methodology + +Similar as legacy FR2 UE RF testing methodology, the uncertainty tables shall be presented with two stages: + +- Stage 1: the calibration of the absolute level of the DUT measurement results is performed by means of using a calibration antenna whose absolute gain is known at the frequencies of measurement +- Stage 2: the actual measurement with the DUT as either the transmitter or receiver is performed. + +The uncertainty assessments for UE RF testing mainly refer to [13] taking into the impact from 2AoAs receptions. For multi-Rx chain DL reception UE RF requirements, the percentage of 2AoA spherical coverage is specified. Therefore, the new requirements of 2AoA are quite similar as legacy EIS spherical coverage requirements. While the difference between multi-Rx chain DL reception requirement and legacy EIS spherical coverage requirement measurement is that DL power is not scanning with a DL power step size in multi-Rx chain DL reception UE RF testing. It says in multi-Rx chain DL reception UE RF testing, the throughput of UE is measured at a fixed DL power, i.e., legacy EIS spherical coverage power level. + +As specified in Table B.19.2-2 of [13], each MU element is described as dB value that could not totally apply for multi-Rx chain DL reception UE MU analysis. Additionally, the difference of probability between candidate measurement grids measurement step size could be evaluated and provided based on the simulations. Therefore, it is agreed to use the percentage value as the metric for the 2AoA UE RF MU analysis. + +The preliminary MU budget for UE RF testing methodology is defined in Table A.1-1 and Table A.1-2. + +**Table A.1-1: Uncertainty assessment for wanted DL signal absolute power in 2AoA coverage measurement with IFF** + +| UID | Uncertainty source | Uncertainty value | Distribution of the probability | Divisor | Standard uncertainty ( $\sigma$ ) [dB] | +|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|---------------------------------|---------|----------------------------------------| +| Stage 2: DUT measurement | | | | | | +| 1 | Positioning misalignment | 0.00 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.00] | +| 2 | Measure distance uncertainty | 0.00 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| 3 | Quality of Quiet Zone (NOTE 1) | 0.7 | Actual | 1.00 | [0.7] | +| 4 | Mismatch | 1.30 | Actual | 1.00 | [1.30] | +| 5 | Standing wave between the DUT and measurement antenna | 0.00 | U-shaped | 1.41 | [0.00] | +| 6 | gNB uncertainty on absolute level | 2.9 | Normal | 2.00 | [1.45] | +| 7 | Phase curvature | 0.00 | U-shaped | 1.41 | [0.00] | +| 8 | Amplifier uncertainties | 2.1 | Normal | 2.00 | [1.05] | +| 9 | Random uncertainty | 0.50 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.25] | +| 10 | Influence of the XPD | 0.01 | U-shaped | 1.41 | [0.00] | +| 11 | Insertion Loss Variation | 0.00 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| 12 | RF leakage (from measurement antenna to the receiver/transmitter) | 0.00 | Actual | 1.00 | [0.00] | +| 13 | Multiple measurement antenna uncertainty | 0.15 | Actual | 1.00 | [0.15] | +| 14 | DUT repositioning | 0.00 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| 15 | Influence of spherical coverage grid | 0.12 | Actual | 1 | [0.12] | +| Stage 1: Calibration measurement | | | | | | +| 16 | Mismatch | 0.00 | U-shaped | 1.41 | [0.00] | +| 17 | Amplifier Uncertainties | 0.00 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.00] | +| 18 | Misalignment of positioning System | 0.00 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.00] | +| 19 | Uncertainty of the Network Analyzer | 1.50 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.75] | +| 20 | Uncertainty of the absolute gain of the calibration antenna | 0.60 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.30] | +| 21 | Positioning and pointing misalignment between the reference antenna and the measurement antenna | 0.01 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| 22 | Phase centre offset of calibration antenna | 0.00 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| 23 | Quality of quiet zone for calibration process (NOTE 1) | 0.4 | Actual | 1.00 | [0.4] | +| 24 | Standing wave between reference calibration antenna and measurement antenna | 0.00 | U-shaped | 1.41 | [0.00] | +| 25 | Influence of the calibration antenna feed cable | 0.14 | Normal | 2.00 | [0.07] | +| 26 | Insertion Loss Variation | 0.00 | Rectangular | 1.73 | [0.00] | +| Measurement uncertainty | | | | | Value | +| Wanted DL signal absolute power (1.96 $\sigma$ -

For multi-Rx chain DL reception UE RF testing, it has already known that measured performance of a UE is expected to systematically vary as a function of position. This systematic variation means that the strategy to completely randomize the orientation of the UE to determine MU does not apply. Moreover, for the measurement grid analysis for multi-Rx, the AoA pairs lie along longitudes of the UE reference coordination system, and the requirements apply only for the UE-declared orientation in the positioner. Therefore, it is agreed that uncertainty mechanism for multi-Rx chain DL reception UE RF testing is limited to the coarseness of the grid and doesn't depend on the UE random orientations as the legacy approach. + +Through the analysis from simulation results with antenna configuration of 6x2 and 4x2, 15deg is selected as the step size of constant-step grid. + +## G.1 Simulation results for step size + +In this clause, the simulation results with 1deg, 2deg, 5deg, 10deg, 15deg, and 30deg step sizes are shown in Table G.1-1 and Table G.1-2 considering different antenna modules placements. + +**Table G.1-1: Simulation results for step size with antenna configuration of 4x2** + +| Adjacent modules | | | | | | | | +|-----------------------------|-------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| +| | | 30 | 60 | 90 | 120 | 150 | 180 | +| Samsung -

As a plane travels into different sections of airspace, the + +onboard ATG terminal automatically connects to the cell with strongest received signal power, just as a mobile phone does on the ground. In this network, a direct radio link will be established between BS on the ground and CPE type of UE mounted in the aircraft. + +From the trials and commercial operation [] of adapted LTE ATG solutions, some characteristics are considered for ATG network deployment scenarios. + +- **Extremely large inter-site distance (ISD) and large coverage range:** In order to control the network deployment cost and considering the limited number of flights, large ISD is preferred, e.g., about 100km to 200km. At the same time, when the plane is above the sea, the distance between the plane and the nearest base station could be more than 200km and even up to 300km. Therefore, ATG network should be able to provide up to 300km cell coverage range. +- **Utilizing non-disjoint frequency for deploying both ATG and terrestrial networks, i.e. same operating band but ATG network and TN use adjacent carriers:** Operators are interested to adopt the same frequency for deploying both ATG and terrestrial networks to save frequency resource cost, while interference between ATG and terrestrial networks becomes non-negligible and should be addressed. +- **Much powerful on-board ATG terminal capacity:** On-board ATG terminal can be much powerful than normal terrestrial UE, e.g., with higher EIRP via much larger transmission power and/or much larger on-board antenna gain. + +# 5 ATG bands + +ATG will operate within existing NR operating bands and does not need new bands. Depending on the operator's request so far, the following NR bands are intended for ATG deployment in Rel-18. Other new band request for ATG deployment is not precluded in future. + +**Table 5-1: ATG operating bands** + +| NR operating band | Uplink (UL) operating band

Breakpoint distance d_{BP} = 4 h'_{BS} h'_{UT} f_c/c, where f_c is the centre frequency in Hz, c = 3.0 \times 10^8 m/s is the propagation velocity in free space, and h'_{BS} and h'_{UT} are the effective antenna heights at the BS and the UT, respectively. The effective antenna heights h'_{BS} and h'_{UT} are computed as follows: h'_{BS} = h_{BS} - h_E, h'_{UT} = h_{UT} - h_E, where h_{BS} and h_{UT} are the actual antenna heights, and h_E is the effective environment height. For UMi h_E = 1.0m. For UMa h_E=1m with a probability equal to 1/(1+C(d_{2D}, h_{UT})) and chosen from a discrete uniform distribution uniform(12,15,...,(h_{UT}-1.5)) otherwise. With C(d_{2D}, h_{UT}) given by

$C(d_{2D}, h_{UT}) = \begin{cases} 0 & , h_{UT} < 13\text{m} \\ \left(\frac{h_{UT} - 13}{10}\right)^{1.5} g(d_{2D}) & , 13\text{m} \leq h_{UT} \leq 23\text{m} \end{cases}$

where

$g(d_{2D}) = \begin{cases} 0 & , d_{2D} \leq 18\text{m} \\ \frac{5}{4} \left(\frac{d_{2D}}{100}\right)^3 \exp\left(\frac{-d_{2D}}{150}\right) & , 18\text{m} < d_{2D} \end{cases}$

Note that h_E depends on d_{2D} and h_{UT} and thus needs to be independently determined for every link between BS sites and UTs. A BS site may be a single BS or multiple co-located BSs.

Note 2: The applicable frequency range of the PL formula in this table is 0.5 < f_c < f_H GHz, where f_H = 30 GHz for RMa and f_H = 100 GHz for all the other scenarios. It is noted that RMa pathloss model for >7 GHz is validated based on a single measurement campaign conducted at 24 GHz.

Note 3: UMa NLOS pathloss is from TR36.873 with simplified format and PL_{UMa-LOS} = Pathloss of UMa LOS outdoor scenario.

Note 4: PL_{UMi-LOS} = Pathloss of UMi-Street Canyon LOS outdoor scenario.

Note 5: Break point distance d_{BP} = 2\pi h_{BS} h_{UT} f_c/c, where f_c is the centre frequency in Hz, c = 3.0 \times 10^8 m/s is the propagation velocity in free space, and h_{BS} and h_{UT} are the antenna heights at the BS and the UT, respectively.

Note 6: f_c denotes the center frequency normalized by 1GHz, all distance related values are normalized by 1m, unless it is stated otherwise.

The simulation results based on both models – Free Space Path loss and RMa model in TR 38.901 with hUT as 30m has been captured in the TR, serving only as information for the readers. The models have the following limitations as highlighted below and it's upto the readers discretion to analyze based on their implementation – + +- Free Space Path Loss model + - Interference may arise through a range of propagation mechanisms whose individual dominance depends on climate, radio frequency, time percentage of interest, distance, and path topography. Free space modeling is one of such mechanism. +- RMa model in TR 38.901 with updating hUT as 30m + - The applicable range of User Terminal antenna height- hUT in the proposed RMa Pathloss model is - + +$$1\text{m} \leq h_{\text{UT}} \leq 10\text{m}$$ + +- whereas in the simulations, hUT has been considered as 30m which is above the limit. +- The applicable maximum distance - d2D in the RMa Pathloss model is 10 km for LoS and 5km for NLoS, whereas in the simulations (also stated in Table 6.2.1.2-1 in ATG Network Layout) is minimum distance of 20 km for Non-subarray and 50 km for Sub-array and maximum distance of 100km for both antenna models. This is again way above the limit questioning the validity and accuracy of the model. + +Considering the simulation results in Sub-clause 6.4.2 and the highlighted above limitations, following observations are made based on the propagation models + +- Optimistic isolation distances in the multiples of tens of kilometres, based on RMa pathloss model in TR 38.901 with hUT as 30m, when the angle between ATG BS boresight and nearest TN boresight in azimuth are 0°, 30° and 60°. +- Pessimistic isolation distances in the multiples of tens to multiples of hundreds of kilometres, based on Free space Pathloss model, when the angle between ATG BS boresight and nearest TN boresight in azimuth are 0°, 30° and 60°. + +# 7 RF requirements + +## 7.1 ATG UE specific + +### 7.1.1 ATG UE power class and requirement type + +Since the required power level for ATG might be varying in different aircraft types and also in different frequency ranges, it's quite difficult to focus on one specific power class for ATG UE from 3GPP perspective, therefore 3GPP agreed to introduce the new capability for ATG UE to indicate the rated maximum output power at maximum modulation order and full PRB configurations and its capability report granularity as 1dB. The range of its power limit are defined as following: + +- The lower limit of conductive MOP or TRP of ATG UE is 23 dBm +- The upper limit of conductive MOP or TRP of ATG UE is 40 dBm + +In addition, considering the implementation freedom for ATG UE(e.g. for 2 GHz, to use omni-directional antenna for ATG UE and for 4 GHz, to use antenna array for ATG UE), therefore 3GPP RAN4 agreed to introduce two ATG UE types to distinguish the antenna types for ATG UE. + +### 7.1.2 Tx requirements + +#### 7.1.2.1 Frequency error + +The doppler frequency for ATG UE can be determined by, + +$$f_D = \cos\theta * \frac{v}{c} * f_c$$ + +Where, + +- $f_D$ is Doppler frequency, $f_c$ is the carrier frequency, which is set as 5GHz for n79. +- $v$ is the speed of the aircraft which is 1200km/h. +- $\theta$ is the elevation angle between UE and gNB. + +Since the potential maximum cell range is up to 200-300km [2] and the normal commercial airplane altitude is 10km, the elevation angle is only about 2~3 degrees when UE doing initial access at cell edge. Then the maximum DL doppler frequency is approaching 5.5kHz and the UL doppler frequency compared to the configured UL central frequency is approaching 5.5kHz if without any compensation which may cause not negligible impact for link performance and access successful rate. ATG UE needs to perform frequency compensation. The frequency accuracy requirement will be written assuming Doppler frequency pre-compensation. + +The ATG BS coarse location information captured in new SIB specified in TS 38.331 for ATG could be broadcasted for ATG UE to do frequency compensation if necessary. [UE shall rely on the ATG BS location broadcasted by the IE *EphemerisInfo* in NTN SIB 19 in 38.331 if pre-compensation is based on SIB19. Where, Ephemeris may be expressed in format of position and velocity state vector]. + +#### 7.1.2.2 MOP requirements + +For ATG UE, the maximum output power is declared at maximum modulation order and full PRB configurations within the channel bandwidth of NR carrier unless otherwise stated. The period of measurement shall be at least one sub frame (1ms). + +ATG UE implementations/antenna patterns might be varying for different operating bands. The output power from the UE may depend on the aircraft type and exact deployment scenario. Currently, there is a lack of knowledge in 3GPP of the appropriate output power for an ATG UE considering all design, regulatory constraints and potential avionics device protection. For this reason, it is agreed that ATG UE is allowed to declare the output power and signal it to the network. The lower limit of conductive MOP or TRP declared by ATG UE is 23dBm. The upper limit of conductive MOP or TRP declared by ATG UE is 40dBm. The capability report granularity is 1dB. + +#### 7.1.2.3 MPR/AMPR requirements + +ATG UE is allowed to declare the output power at supported maximum modulation order and full PRB configurations. Thus, MPR/AMPR requirements are not needed as ATG UE can declare a lower power whenever power back-off is needed. Additionally, when ATG UE indicate the maximum output power under the specific conditions (the supported maximum modulation order, full PRB configurations, SEM/spurious emission requirements, regulation requirements and so on), the necessary power back-off should be considered. In total, the power back-off has been included in the declared maximum output power, so there is no need to specify MPR/AMPR requirements for ATG UE. + +#### 7.1.2.4 Configured transmitted power + +The UE is allowed to set its configured maximum output power $P_{\text{CMAX},f,c}$ for carrier f of serving cell c in each slot. The configured maximum output power $P_{\text{CMAX},f,c}$ is set within the following bounds: + +$$P_{\text{CMAX\_L},f,c} \leq P_{\text{CMAX},f,c} \leq P_{\text{CMAX\_H},f,c} \text{ with}$$ + +$$P_{\text{CMAX\_L},f,c} = \text{MIN} \{P_{\text{EMAX},c}, P_{\text{MaxOutputPower}}\}$$ + +$$P_{\text{CMAX\_H},f,c} = P_{\text{EMAX},c}$$ + +where + +$P_{\text{EMAX},c}$ is the value given by either the *p-Max* IE or the field *additionalPmax* of the *NR-NS-PmaxList* IE, whichever is applicable according to TS 38.331[7]; + +$P_{\text{MaxOutputPower}}$ is the maximum UE output power at maximum modulation order and full PRB configurations which is indicated by ATG UE; + +#### 7.1.2.5 Minimum output power + +The calculation and results for minimum output power are listed below. + +**Table 7.1.2.5-1 the calculation for minimum output power requirements** + +| Parameters | Omni-directional antenna | phased array antenna | +|-------------------------------------|--------------------------|----------------------| +| center frequency GHz | 2 | 4 | +| Distance meter | 3000 | 3000 | +| Pathloss dB | 108.063 | 114.0836 | +| ATG BS antenna gain | 21 | 21 | +| ATG UE antenna gain | 0 | 11 | +| Thermal noise power density dBm/MHz | -114 | -114 | +| ATG BS Noise figure dB | 5 | 5 | +| Minimum output power dBm/MHz | -21.937 | -26.9164 | +| Minimum output power dBm/5MHz | -14.9473 | -19.92669996 | + +The minimum output power requirements are specified below. + +**Table 7.1.2.5-2 the calculation for minimum output power requirements** + +| Channel bandwidth | (MHz) | 5,10,15,20 | 25,30,35,40,45,50 | 60,70,80,90,100 | +|-----------------------|-------|-----------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------| +| REF_SCS | (kHz) | 15 | | | +| Minimum output power | (dBm) | X | $X+10\log_{10}(\text{BW}_{\text{Channel}}/20)$ | $X+10\log_{10}(\text{BW}_{\text{Channel}}/20)$ | +| Measurement bandwidth | (MHz) | $\text{MBW}=\text{REF\_SCS}*(12*\text{NRB}+1)/1000$ | | | + +NOTE 1: The minimum output power value is rounded to the nearest number down to one decimal point. +NOTE 2: X = -15 for the ATG UE with omni-directional antenna.

ATG UE at 2 GHz with omni-directional antennas, may receive power from multiple TN BSs. Even at 4 GHz, an ATG UE pointing downwards may still receive Rx power from the ground TN BS. + +To evaluate the TN's blocking power, simulations are conducted based on Scenario 3 and 11 (TN aggressor DL to ATG DL) and analyze the CDF of the absolute Rx power received by the ATG UE from the TN. The simulation is based on the following deployment scenarios: the ATG BS is located 300 km away from the center of the TN cluster and the ATG UEs x-coordinate is uniformly distributed over the horizontal extent of the TN cluster. The TN BSs utilize non-co-located 8-column non-subarray antennas. A single 5 dBi gain element has been used at the ATG UE at 4 GHz while an isotropic radiator is used at 2 GHz. + +At a CDF of 99.999%, the simulation shows that the Rx power for a uniform distribution of ATG UEs' altitude between 3 km and 10 km is -52 dBm and -56 dBm for 2 GHz and 4 GHz, respectively. For a fixed 10 km case, the Rx power is quite similar. A 6 dB difference can be observed in the fixed 3 km case, which is an unlikely scenario. Strictly following the simulation suggests -52 dBm in-band blocking, but it is essential to note that this relies on a 99.999% CDF. Lowering CDF to 99.99% is expected to yield lower interference at least several dB lower. + +Therefore, it is suggested to reuse the in-band blocking requirements in TS 38.101-1 for ATG UE. + +![Figure 7.1.3.6-1: Simulation results of ACI blocking for scenario 3.

In the case of in-band blocking, the involvement of neighboring operators operating ATG could be significant. The most severe situation arises when co-located ATG BS direct their beams toward aircraft that are relatively close to each other and the BS. In such a case, the victim ATG UE could still be in the vicinity of the beam of the aggressor BS.

The victim aircraft could fall within the + +main lobe or the edge of the beam lobe towards the aggressor aircraft. Assuming 20 km distance from the ATG BS to the victim aircraft at a 10 km flight level, the angle separation is less than 1 deg in Scenario 1 and 15.4 deg in Scenario 2. + +In Scenario 1, the victim UE falls into the main lobe of the aggressor beam. Determining the EIRP of the victim involves utilizing the ATG BS output power from simulation parameters and accounting for free space path loss. For an ATG UE operating at 2 GHz, the EIRP is calculated to be - 72 dBm, significantly lower than the blocking caused by TN interference. Furthermore, the 300 m vertical separation is an absolute minimum distance and is very unlikely to occur during normal cruising in the same direction. + +Thus, it is not necessary to consider blocking from other ATG networks when assessing the in-band blocking requirement. + +#### 7.1.3.7 Out-of-Band blocking requirements/ Spurious response + +Referring to the ITU-R M.2059-0 [8], Tables 1 and 2 of ITU-R M.2059-0 provide technical characteristics for representative analogue and digital FMCW radio altimeters.

The following section will capture the considerations of ATG BS RF requirements. + +### 7.2.1 ATG BS class and BS type + +This WI study focus on FR1 bands only. After some discussion, the three BS FR1 types are specified for ATG BS, i.e. ATG BS type type1-C, 1-H and 1-O are defined. + +For the ATG BS class, the deployment scenarios were discussed. ATG BSs are supposed to be deployed on the ground to serve ATG UEs (CPE type of UE mounted in the aircraft) in the air. The flight altitude of ATG UE is supposed to turn on is assumed from 3~10km based on the regulatory input and coexistence study. The distance between aircraft and the nearest ATG BS in azimuth angle could be more than 200km and even up to 300km. So the scenario for ATG is different from existing scenarios for TN BS and scenario for HAPS. Separate BS classes for ATG need to be defined. + +For ATG BS type type1-C, 1-H and 1-O, ATG BS class is defined as below: + +ATG Base Stations are characterized by requirements derived from ATG scenarios with a ground BS to air UE with typical vertical altitude of around 10,000m and take-off/landing altitudes down to 3000m. + +Generally most of the WA BS class requirements can be reused by ATG BS. Some exceptions were found in the WI study, for example TAE requirement. The detail requirements study and conclusion are captured in the corresponding sections. + +### 7.2.2 Tx requirements + +#### 7.2.2.1 ATG Base station power + +##### Base station output power + +Considering the large coverage requirements of ATG system, only wide area BS is proper for ATG BS type 1-C, type 1-H and type 1-O. Similar to NR Wide area BS, there is no upper limit for the rated carrier output power, maximum output power should be left up to the declaration. The existing requirement defined in TS 38.104 [5] can be reused. + +##### RE power control dynamic range + +The RE power control dynamic range is the difference between the power of an RE and the average RE power for a BS at maximum output power for a specified reference condition. + +The RE power control dynamic range was derived by considering the relation between RE power boosting/de-boosting and other RF requirements like UEM, ACLR and EVM. For ATG BS, since the same waveform as NR is used, the existing requirement defined in TS 38.104 [5] can be applicable. + +##### Total power dynamic range + +The BS total power dynamic range is the difference between the maximum and the minimum transmit power of an OFDM symbol for a specified reference condition. It can be calculated by $10\log_{10}(N_{RB})$ . The Total power dynamic range for ATG BS can reuse the requirement from TN BS in 3GPP TS 38.104 [5] for the same channel bandwidth. + +#### 7.2.2.2 Transmitted signal quality + +##### Frequency error + +Frequency error mainly depends on the timing and synchronization performance and PLL performance within transceiver chain. ATG system is expected to use the existing timing and synchronization network directly. Meanwhile, similar PLL performance of ATG BS as NR BS is also expected as they are operating at the same frequency range. With the above considerations, frequency error requirement of NR can be reused for ATG BS. + +Considering the 0.05ppm BS frequency error, for 2100 MHz, it is 105 Hz. For ATG system, UE velocity can be reach up 900-1200km/h at cruising speed, it can be seen that the more serious frequency offset is caused by the Doppler effect. The 0.05 ppm frequency offset has little impact on the system performance. + +##### **Time alignment error** + +For a specific set of NR signals/transmitter configurations/transmission modes, the conducted Time Alignment Error (TAE) is defined as the largest allowed timing difference (i.e. error) between two different reference signals belonging to different antenna connectors (for 1-C type NR BS), or *TAB connectors* (for 1-H type NR BS). + +TAE is only applicable for NR BS transmitting from multiple antennas via MIMO, CA, or combination of them. + +However, in ATG system, BS transmits signals from the ground to the air. Generally, these are only the main path signals, and few multipath signals. Thus, it's unnecessary to specify the MIMO TAE requirements for ATG BS. In addition, CA is not supported for ATG in Rel-18. As a result, no TAE requirements need to be developed for ATG BS. + +##### **Modulation quality** + +It is agreed to specify QPSK, 16QAM, 64QAM and 256QAM for ATG, for the supported modulation order is up to the vendor's declaration. + +For ATG BS, the EVM value of each carrier for different modulation schemes on PDSCH in TS 38.104 [5] shall be met. + +#### **7.2.2.3 Unwanted emission requirements** + +##### **Occupied bandwidth** + +The occupied bandwidth is the width of a frequency band such that, below the lower and above the upper frequency limits, the mean powers emitted are each equal to a specified percentage $\beta/2$ ( $=0.5\%$ ) of the total mean transmitted power. For ATG BS, it is agreed to reuse the same requirement defined in TS38.104 [5] which is following Recommendation ITU-R SM.328. + +##### **Adjacent Channel Leakage Power Ratio (ACLR)** + +Based on the coexistence simulation results, it is sufficient to reuse the legacy FR1 ACLR 45dBc requirement for ATG BS.. + +##### **Operating band unwanted emissions** + +ATG BS can follow Wide Area BS, that the UEM level in the spurious domain is aligned with ITU-R recommendation SM.329. + +#### **7.2.2.4 Transmitter spurious emissions** + +Since transmitter spurious emissions for TN BS should meet the requirements of ITU-R SM329, CEPT, and FCC etc., the spurious emission requirement defined in TS 38.104 [5] for TN BS is sufficient for ATG. + +The same spurious emission requirement defined in TS 38.104 [5] for TN BS can be reused. + +#### 7.2.2.5 Transmitter intermodulation + +In the standard discussion, it's supposed that there's no surrounding interfering BS with same bands existing for ATG BS. But some other scenarios were identified, for example, interfering signals from other bands or other asynchronous BS, also temporary interferers could occur close to the ATG BS. Therefore, it was agreed that it is important to verify that the ATG BS will still meet all emissions requirements, including regulatory requirements robustly. + +It was agreed that the Tx IM requirement in TS 38.104 [5] can be reused to guarantee the performance of the ATG BS. + +### 7.2.3 Rx requirements + +#### 7.2.3.1 Reference sensitivity level + +For reference sensitivity level because it is expected that the BS technology will be the same and hence the noise factor the same. The existing requirements specified in clause 7.2 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-C, 1-H, and clause 10.3 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-O. + +#### 7.2.3.2 Dynamic range + +For dynamic range because it is based on assumptions on the maximum interference level around the BS. Detailed investigation has not been made, but since the main difference between an ATG BS and TN BS is the tilt, it is not expected to be greater and may be expected sometimes to be similar to a TN BS. The existing requirements specified in clause 7.3 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-C, 1-H, and clause 10.4 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-O. + +#### 7.2.3.3 ACS + +The co-existence simulations demonstrate that if 46dBc ACS is applied for BS in ATG scenarios then the cross operator interference is acceptable (<5% degradation) in all scenarios. It is desirable to apply the same ACS as TN BS to maximize compatibility with BS hardware platforms. Thus, based on the simulation results, the ATG adjacent channel selectivity (ACS) reuse the existing FR1 ACS (i.e. 46dBc) requirement applied for TN BS. The existing requirements specified in clause 7.4 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-C, 1-H, and clause 10.5 of TS 38.104[5] can be reused for ATG BS type1-O. + +#### 7.2.3.4 In-band blocking + +Since ATG BS is supposed to steer its beam up towards to provide the service for ATG UE in the air, the received power level of in-band blocking would be also lower than that for the legacy TN BS with beam steering down towards to provide the service on the ground. In addition, considering that it's agreed to reuse the FR1 BS ACS requirement [46dBc] for ATG BS, therefore it is also reasonable to reuse the in-band blocking requirement for FR1 WA BS for ATG BS. + +#### 7.2.3.5 Receiver intermodulation + +Regarding the Rx intermodulation, although it is not likely to have the coexistence scenario in which ATG BS is subject to intermodulation interferers with the power levels defined in FR1 WA Rx intermodulation requirement, Rx intermodulation still dimension some aspects of receiver design (e.g. receiver linearity to minimize the interfering signal intermodulation fall into the wanted signal). Therefore, it's still useful to keep the receiver intermodulation requirements and it is agreed to reuse the Rx IM requirement for FR1 WA BS for ATG BS. + +#### 7.2.3.6 Out of band blocking + +Since ATG BS is supposed to steer its beam up towards to provide the service for ATG UE in the air, the received OOB power level would be also lower than that for the legacy TN BS with beam steering down towards to provide the service on the ground, then it's sufficient to reuse the existing OOB requirement defined for Wide Area BS in TS38.104. + +#### 7.2.3.7 In-channel selectivity + +Since the IoT level of ATG BS is supposed to quite low compared with IoT level of the legacy TN BS. In addition, considering that noise figure for WA BS and FRC could be reused for ATG BS, then it's sufficient to reuse the existing requirement for Wide Area BS defined in TS 38.104. + +# --- 8 RRM requirements + +## 8.1 General + +In R18, the WI on ATG doesn't consider FR2, CA/DC and inter-RAT measurement scenario, the corresponding requirements are not applicable for R18 ATG. In light of ATG characteristics (e.g. ISD assumption of [14]-200km, maximum UE speed of 1200km/h, maximum distance between UE and BS is greater than [200]km), some RRM requirements are different from legacy ground-based network requirements, as listed in table 8-1. + +Editor's Note: In table 8-1, the RRM requirements with square brackets are still under discussion, which may be updated according to the latest agreements. + +**Table 8-1: RRM requirements for R18 ATG which are different from legacy ground-based network requirements** + +| Requirement | Item | Comments | +|-----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| Cell re-selection | Cell re-selection measurement requirements for intra-frequency measurement | Introduce scaling factor N for L3 measurements for ATG UEs with [antenna arrays]

Two kinds of layout have been conducted to simulate different location relationship between ATG UE and TN network, one for ATG UE on top of TN network and the other for ATG UE away from TN UE in azimuth. For adjacent channel co-existence, RAN4 has concluded to reuse legacy FR1 TN BS and UE RF requirements (i.e., ACLR and ACS) for ATG BS and UE, respectively. +- The non-synchronized operation assumption is used to analyze isolation distance between ATG BS and TN network based on derived ACLR and ACS from synchronization operation. Moreover, a total of 3 cases have + +been performed to describe different boresight relationship between ATG BS and nearest TN BS. ATG BS point directly at nearest TN BS in azimuth is the worst case.

However, given that this requirement is a manufacturer declaration, it would not impact the requirement applicability. + +# 5 Feasibility study + +## 5.1 General + +According to the definition in section 6.1, a multi-band FR2-1 RIB is a RIB that transmits in two or more FR2-1 bands using common active components. In this section, the feasibility of an FR2-1 multi-band solution is considered. The feasibility is examined taking into account technology challenges and emerging solutions. It is possible that not all parts of the BS are multi-band but that some advantage can be gained by implementing some parts as multi-band. For example one potential advantage of a multiband PA might be that power can be distributed between the supported bands offering more flexibility to optimize the power available for each, this requires only a multi-band PA. + +The evaluation considers whether the proposed set of FR2-1 requirements is likely to be achievable with present or future implementation possibilities. The study does not aim to conclude on whether a multi-band FR2 solution is more optimal or effective (considering complexity, power, weight etc.) than other possibilities, for example mounting individual radio panels for each band within a BS enclosure. + +When discussing the feasibility of wideband components/systems the multi-band bandwidth as a percentage of the carrier frequency should be considered. + +Note that this is generally called fractional BW but in [2] the term fractional BW is already defined to mean something specific so is best avoided to prevent confusion. + +Fractional bandwidth (FBW) is defined for a single operating band as shown below: + +- Fractional bandwidth (FBW) is defined in [2] as $FBW = 200 \cdot \frac{F_{FBWhigh} - F_{FBWlow}}{F_{FBWhigh} + F_{FBWlow}} \%$ , +- where $F_{FBWhigh}$ is highest supported frequency within supported operating band, for which fractional bandwidth support was declared, and $F_{FBWlow}$ is lowest supported frequency within supported operating band, for which fractional bandwidth support was declared. + +Multiple operating bands are discussed in this study so the existing definition of fractional bandwidth is not suitable, the term percentage bandwidth is therefore used and defined as follows: + +- Percentage bandwidth (PBW) is defined in this study as $PBW = 200 \cdot \frac{F_{PBWhigh} - F_{PBWlow}}{F_{PBWhigh} + F_{PBWlow}} \%$ , +- where $F_{PBWhigh}$ is highest supported frequency, for which percentage bandwidth support was declared, and $F_{PBWlow}$ is lowest supported frequency, for which percentage bandwidth support was declared. + +Table 5.1-1 shows the percentage bandwidth for the FR2-1 bands and various potential multi-band groups. + +**Table 5.1-1:Percentage band width of FR2-1 operating band (s)** + +| Frequency group, NR operating band pairing (lowest, highest) | Frequency range | Percentage bandwidth | +|--------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------|----------------------| +| 26 GHz (n258) | 24250 MHz – 27500 MHz | 12.6% | +| 28 GHz (n257) | 26500 MHz – 29500 MHz | 10.7% | +| 28 GHz (n261) | 27500 MHz – 28350 MHz | 3% | +| 39 GHz (n260) | 37000 MHz – 40000 MHz | 7.8% | +| 40 GHz (n259) | 39500 MHz – 43500 MHz | 9.6% | +| 48 GHz (n262) | 47200 MHz – 48200 MHz | 2.1% | +| 24-29 GHz (n257/n258/n261) | 24250 MHz – 29500 MHz | 19.5% | +| 37-48 GHz (n260/n259/n262) | 37000 MHz – 48200 MHz | 26.3% | +| 26+28 GHz (n258, n261) | 24250 MHz – 28350 MHz | 15.6% | +| 28+39 GHz (n257/n261, n260) | 26500 MHz – 40000 MHz | 40.6% | +| 26+40 GHz (n258, n259/n262) | 24250 MHz – 48200 MHz | 66.1% | +| 28+40 GHz (n257/n261, n259/n262) | 26500 MHz – 48200 MHz | 58.1% | + +## 5.2 Wideband RF architectures + +### 5.2.1 RF Front end + +#### 5.2.1.1 General + +Feasibility for RF front ends can be considered by looking at existing component capabilities which could be used for multi-band FR2 products now but also by studying literature for the direction of future capabilities. + +#### 5.2.1.2 Beam former and PA + +There are a number of components available today which offer sufficient band widths to cover at least some of the FR2 multi-band options.

On one hand, the contribution of PAs to the total DC power consumption in a FR2 BS is much reduced. This is due to the fact that more antenna elements are added to increase the directivity of the antenna array to combat against the high path loss occurred at FR2, which in turn requires smaller power to feed each antenna element, and thus small-power PA per Tx is sufficient. On the other hand, the requirement on ACLR for FR2 BSs is not as large, i.e. 24 - 28dBc (by means of OTA measurement), compared to that applied to FR1 BSs, i.e. 45dBc [2] due to the beamforming and propagation environment. This somewhat alleviates the essential need of high-linearity PAs on meeting required ACLR. Therefore, the DPD in single-band FR2 BSs is expected to provide a little gain in terms of improving power efficiency and meeting the ACLR requirement. Furthermore, the analog and hybrid beamforming, which are predominantly used in FR2 radios, also pose challenges for DPD implementation. With hundreds to thousands of PAs and higher operating bandwidths for FR2 radio, simply utilizing a similar DPD architecture as in FR1 would cost extra for RF hardware design and power consumption, while it may be infeasible to deploy single DPD for every PA in the analog/hybrid beamforming phased array since several or all analog chains essentially share one digital path. The DPD algorithms would also have more demands on the bandwidth of feedback receiver/ADC and BB signal processing resources, which + +are scaled with the size of bandwidth to be linearized. These limited-gain and implementation-challenge factors make the similar DPD implementations as in FR1 less attractive to the FR2 single-band BS. + +Nevertheless, DPD may still bring benefit for FR2 BSs in terms boosting the overall system performance (e.g. throughput due to improved EVM, or very possibly energy efficiency). It is worth highlighting that common FR2 transmitter architecture requires to have tight integration between RF components to reduce hardware costs, sizes, and power loss in which isolator between an antenna element and a PA is preferably avoided [5], e.g. as illustrated in Figure 5.2.2.1-1. In such architecture, PAs directly interact with the antenna array due to low path isolation between them. As a result, mutual coupling and antenna mismatch between antenna paths have strong impact to the PAs' output matching impedance which changes the PA's efficiency and nonlinearity behaviours [5]. The array steering angle, which also alters the antenna matching impedance, shows strong dependence on the nonlinearity to the PAs too. In addition, input of PAs in different branches may be driven with different power as a result of the beamforming techniques applied (i.e. tapering, ZF, etc.), or gain error of the phase shifters and gain imbalance of power division network [6]. These mentioned factors have the detrimental effect to efficiency and linearity behaviours of PAs which may degrade the ACLR while increasing the OOB emission and beam distortions [5]. For example, several studies have demonstrated the impact of steering angle to ACLR and OOB emission and how DPD can help to improve the beamforming performance [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. + +![Figure 5.2.2.1-1: A typical single-band FR2 antenna array architecture.

Whilst the design of PA's is likely to be identical there are a number of factors which could change their performance: + +- Temperature – the location of each PA in the array (and the silicon) may mean different transistors are at different temperature (depending on the number of neighbouring devices for example) so the temperature of each junction may be different. +- Unit to unit variation – whilst some transistors may all be on a single piece of silicon and variation on a single bit of silicon may be small if multiple devices are used (8 or 16 per device may be more usual) so there will be unit to unit variation across the potential 128 paths +- Output match variation – PA performance is very dependent on the load it is working into, again all output match circuits are likely to be designed identically but will vary based on a number of factors: + - Unit to unit of components + - Antenna unit to unit + +- Antenna isolation and load pulling from nearby antenna (and signals) + +Despite these issues useful linearization of an FR2 systems can be achieved and may become more common as technology improves. + +#### 5.2.2.2 DPD for FR2 multiband BS + +Antenna array and TRXs in FR2 radios are desired to be tightly integrated in which RF filter is preferably omitted after the PA. Since a *multi-band RIB* essentially needs to transmit multiple-band signals concurrently, the nonlinearity of PAs will likely cause intermodulation (IM) distortion. It would be highly challenging to manage the PAs in multiband RIB not to operate in the nonlinearity power region. Particularly, the varying nonlinearity behaviours of the PAs, which causes by the nonlinear interaction between antenna array and the PAs as discussed above, also inherit to the FR2 *multi-band RIB*. Such issues would be expected to be more complicated in the multiband use cases than in single-band ones due to higher requirements on matching load impedance of PAs covering multiband/wideband. Therefore, unwanted emissions due to IM distortions likely exist and may possibly fall into the operating bands or inter- RF bandwidth. Note that the latter case occurs if there is multicarrier transmission in one band. Figures 5.2.2.2-1 and 5.2.2.2-2 illustrate some examples. Assume that frequency ranges that the BS can operate in Band A and B are 24.25-26.5GHz (n258) and 27-29.5 GHz (n257), and there is transmission taking place at 26GHz in Band A and 27.5GHz in band B. Then IM3 components occur at 24.5GHz and 29GHz, which obviously fall into operating bandwidth of both bands as seen in Figure 5.2.2.2-1. Now assume that band A transmits two carrier frequencies at 24.75 and 25.75GHz. Then one IM3 component occurs at 26.75GHz which falls into the inter- RF bandwidth of the multiband BS as seen in Figure 5.2.2.2-3. + +![Figure 5.2.2.2-1: Frequency spectrum diagram showing Band A (24.25-26.5 GHz) and Band B (27-29.5 GHz) with an inter- RF bandwidth gap between them.

As such IMD products are a potential issue but possibly not a serious one in some case, for example: + +- 128 PA's at 20mW each is only 2.56W (34dBm) +- With 28dBc ACLR this gives an adjacent channel power of 6dBm + +For a 100MHz channel this gives a PSD of -14dBm/MHz which is below the spurious emissions requirements for FR2. It is unlikely that any in-band non-linearities will be greater than the ACLR level (as these are 3rd order products) so the out of band emissions requirements are unlikely to be a problem. + +The IM distortion is also beamformed [10], however if the beams in the different bands are steered in different directions the IM product is in a different direction again [3]. If the beams are close to each other however, e.g. when UEs are nearby each other, the IM distortion beam may still be close enough to point at the intended UE. Thus, it needs to be managed to ensure that RF requirements are still be met for the FR2 multiband RIB. + +Apart from other UEs within the network, IM products in the *inter RF bandwidth gap* need to be suppressed sufficiently to ensure that spurious emissions requirements towards other systems are met. This would in particular need attention if band combinations between frequency groups would be considered. + +RF filter/diplexer after every PAs could be used to handle IM distortions. However, such solution would be very expensive since beamforming phased array in FR2 could have thousands of antenna paths. Filter per path may also generate significantly phase error between antenna paths and increase power loss. Thus, this may not be feasible in terms of cost, size, and performance of FR2 radios. Alternatively, DPD may be a cheaper solution for RF hardware architectures to this issue. For FR2 multi-band DPD, it essentially inherits the abovementioned advantages as well as challenges for single-band FR2 BS with a few additional issues. For instance, the very large percentage BW may cause potential issues when applying DPD for multi-band FR2, these are: + +- The large percentage BW of the PA and the wider the BW the more difficult it will be to maintain a consistent impedance match of PAs over the entire band and hence memory effects may be greater making the DPD algorithm tougher to achieve good linearization. +- Larger BW means variation of the potential sources (as listed for single band) are greater, once gain reducing the potential linearity saving. + +Potentially split or stacked element arrays mean each band signal may be fed to a different antenna, meaning the output load for the PA is more complex and more open to variation. + +Investigating practically feasible DPD solutions for beamforming phased array in FR2 has been an active research topic [11]. To address the concerns on the DPD implementation in FR2, DPD architectures and efficient DPD training model/algorithms have been intensively studied. Note that since one digital path will be shared between some or all analog chains in the analog/hybrid beamforming phased array, an architecture in which DPD linearization is applied for a set of PAs has been proposed and then demonstrated to be able to improve ACLR and EVM, e.g. [12, 13]. + +For multi-band DPD, as the beam steering for a multi-band FR2 system is likely to be applied to each band separately before the signals are combined and fed to a single PA, one example architecture could be that the signals will be generated separately in different converters. Such architectures have been investigated in FR1 bands [14] where separate signals were used to linearize a dual-band signals in a dual-band PA. + +In general, one can either deploy a common DPD for all bands or a dedicated DPD for each band [15]. The former may have less demand on DPD architecture but requires much higher bandwidth for DPD hardware as the captured, training and correcting samples are wideband; since the correction is wide-band, band-specific linearization may not be achievable as such. The latter has lower demand on DPD hardware bandwidth and can achieve per-band linearization but may require more complex DPD architectures and algorithms, i.e. to decompose the captured multiband signals to single-band one and vice versa for the corrections, as well as jointly optimize linearized coefficients for all bands. In both architectures, a wider bandwidth feedback path is required to deal with large signal bandwidth of FR2 band; traditionally the feedback channel needs 3 to 5 times the signal bandwidth to collect nonlinear information of PA. This can be a big burden for high-speed and high-precision ADCs. Nevertheless, DPD training algorithms which minimize the demand on DPD hardware bandwidth and BB resources have also been proposed, e.g. in [16, 17]. It should be highlighted that the implementation of phase shifters will not significantly impact the DPD solutions as linearization are applied to signals seen at the output of the PA, as mentioned in [18]. + +### 5.2.3 Phase shifter + +Analog phase shifters in mmWave BS are used to control the phase of signals in order to steer the beam. In some architectures, attenuators or variable-gain amplifiers are also placed along with the phase shifter to control the gain of beamformed signals to achieve desirable beamforming performance. + +Considering phase shifter designs which are wideband it would prove difficult to apply different phase shifts to different bands. Hence it is not possible to independently steer beams to different directions in the different bands, and it may even not be feasible to steer the beams in the same directions for 2 separate bands if the bands are sufficiently far apart in frequency that the beamforming weights would need to be different for each band. + +If variable true time delay based phase shifters, which add delay to time-domain signals to create phase shift such as tapped delay line phase shifter, are used, then it may be possible to steer the beams toward the same direction for two different bands. This is because the frequency-dependent linear phase response of the true time delay phase shifter can create different phase shifts at different frequencies. However, true time delay phase shifts are challenging to implement + +due to the required size to delivered acceptable phase shift performance (e.g, phase shift resolution), while incurring high insertion loss. + +Phase shifters with a frequency-flat phase response, such as vector modulated phase shifters may have cheaper implementational cost and be more feasible to integrated into commercial BFICs. However, since only one phase shift value can be controlled at a time instant, it may not be feasible to steer the beams in the same direction for two different bands if the bands are sufficiently far apart in frequency that the beamforming weights need to be different for each band. + +Examples of beam steering results when wide-band frequency-flat phase response phase shifters and wideband phased array are used in a multiband transmitter are shown below. The phase shifters only control the beam weights of the lower frequency band. Two steering angles are considered, i.e. 0 and 20 degrees. Figure 5.2.3-1 illustrates the beam patterns when the element separation for lower band and upper band is $0.5\lambda$ and $0.6\lambda$ , respectively, which corresponds to the case of, for example, the combination n258+n261. Figure 5.2.3-2 presents the case when the operating bands are further apart, i.e. the element separation for lower band and upper band is $0.35\lambda$ and $0.65\lambda$ , respectively, which can be the case of combinations across different frequency groups. As can be seen, except when UEs of different bands are at the boresight of the array, otherwise the transmitter cannot steer the beam to multiple UEs independently. Even if different-band UEs are located at same direction (but not boresight), the beam for upper-band UEs is not pointed to its desired direction and a larger frequency separation of the bands results in bigger error of the steering angle. + +![Figure 5.2.3-1: Beam pattern of different band signals when using wideband phase shifter and antenna array.

Within the time frame of this SI it seems commercially available multi-band frequency selective phase shifters that can apply a different phase shift per band are unlikely to be available. However, any specification should not preclude a potential future architecture based on frequency dependent phase shifters. If and when frequency dependent phase shifters become viable, it is possible that RAN4 requirements created in Rel-18 would need re-visiting. + +![Figure 5.2.3-3: Example of multi-band phase shifter prior to a multi-band PA](09955ff8214ffb6947951fc0f60eb6ab_img.jpg) + +The diagram shows a signal flow from left to right.

The optimum radiating element size (a dipole is nominally $\lambda/2$ ) and the array element separation are both dependent on frequency. If an antenna is required to operate over a broad range of frequencies it is difficult to maintain optimum element size and element spacing over the whole range. The required + +percentage bandwidth of the multi-band signal in Table 5.1-1 is therefore important when looking at the feasibility of a broadband antenna. + +From antenna design perspective, solutions covering multiple bands can be achieved in three main ways: a single broadband design covering the entire range of the bands (trades certain performance parameters), designing an antenna with multiple resonances in the desired bands, or having separate antenna designs each covering a band (lower percentage bandwidth) + +### 5.3.2 Single array bandwidth + +It can be noted for comparison that there are FR1 multi-band fixed antenna arrays covering 1710MHz to 2690MHz, with a percentage bandwidth of 44.5% (VSWR of $< 1.5:1$ ). Fixed antenna arrays (with no or limited beam steering) however have more flexibility on element separation with values of up to $0.9\lambda$ being acceptable as the grating lobe is also fixed and can be attenuated with the element pattern. Whilst FR1 antennas build practices are different, the limitations on element size and spacing between elements are similar to those for FR2. + +The radiating element can trade bandwidth against radiation performance. Short dipoles still radiate but the performance degrades the farther from the ideal frequency they are operated at. Defining an exact “acceptable” level of radiation efficiency for a broadband product is not straightforward as other aspects have to be considered (some radiation efficiency may be traded to achieve a broadband system). Also, as the element becomes smaller, its radiation pattern becomes broader these negating its ability to act as a spatial filter for array grating lobes. + +The size of the radiating element and the element separation are also dependent, e.g. the elements cannot touch each other. The separation of the elements in terms of wavelength occurs at the highest frequency, as the maximum separation is limited by the grating lobe performance there is an upper limit to how large this separation may be. Therefore, this sets the maximum size of the element (which will be electrically shortest at the lowest frequency). + +![Diagram showing element length L and separation S between two adjacent elements.

It should be further noticed that the lower and higher band will see different impact of the mutual coupling effect among radiators due to different element spacing, i.e. the narrower element spacing suffers stronger mutual coupling. This effect could change the array pattern and input impedance matching of the antenna elements while being difficult to analytically predict. + +However, based on existing technology it has been agreed that multi-band AA with common radiated element with 19.5% percentage bandwidth in frequency range 24-29 GHz which includes n257/n258/n261, or with 26.3% percentage bandwidth in frequency range 37-48 GHz which includes n260/n259/n262 is feasible, at least from antenna array perspective. + +### 5.3.3 Interleaved array structures + +If the required multi-band antenna bandwidth is too great to be handled by a single antenna array (for the required steering range) it is also possible to use interleaved array structures such as stacked patches. Using stacked patches allows the different bands to feed different elements which are tuned for the specific band. This resolves some of the physical restrictions on the element size. However, if the arrays are stacked then restrictions still exist on the element separation in the array. + +Stacked patches can be designed with either a single dual band input or with separate input ports.

In comparison to separate antenna arrays, a consolidated multi-band design is more compact and reduces costs, but trades performance aspects that can be optimized for in separate designs. On the other hand, having separate designs enables dedicated optimizations, yielding better performance. However, this comes at the cost of a significantly larger circuit area being used for two designs and additional integration losses from lines and transitions. + +### 5.3.4 MIMO EM simulation results + +To enhance the capacity and reliability of data transmission the BSs utilize MIMO of antenna arrays. Therefore, the antenna array designs need to ensure key metrics (such as isolation between antenna elements and diversity performance parameters) achievable in order to deliver expected MIMO performances. The following simulation results demonstrate the capability of a dual-band antenna array design to achieve acceptable performance metrics required for the MIMO. + +Uniform phased antenna arrays in multiple panels spanning beams in two dimensions (2D) are employed at BSs, to serve multiple users within the same time-frequency resource via spatial beamforming across the azimuth and elevation domains. Figure 5.3.4-1 shows the example of 2D multibeam scanning of an 8-panel massive MIMO antenna array system of in 3D view at 26 GHz and 38 GHz, which has been designed by considering antenna element separation of $0.5\lambda$ at higher limit. When various phased antenna arrays are employed in multiple panels in a small physical size, the mutual coupling between them can greatly affect the performance. The isolation between panels' adjacent antenna elements and correlation between the radiated beams needs to be ensured. The performance metrics are isolation (between antenna elements) and diversity performance parameters e.g. envelope correlation coefficient (ECC). The ECC is commonly used to measure amount of radiated beams correlation. The ECC values are calculated using radiated far-field equation in [23]. For good diversity action the ECC should be low. + +![Figure 5.3.4-1: 3D visualization of 2D multibeam scanning for an 8-panel MIMO antenna array system at 26 GHz (left) and 38 GHz (right).

Diplexer performance for 26+40GHz, 28+40GHz combinations + +## 5.4 Other + +In this section, a number of other considerations for FR2-1 wideband BS from the feasibility point of view that are not considered in the preceding sections are mentioned. + +### Digital considerations + +To support a large bandwidth, it is necessary to provide a high sampling rate for ADC and DAC. For individual Frequency Band Groups (e.g. 24.5-29.5GHz, n257+n258), the bandwidth to be supported may be more than 5GHz, and to cover the full FR2-1 the bandwidth might be up to 24GHz. If linearization would be seen later to be feasible for multiband BS, then DAC/ADC would need to support for the feedback and correction, which poses another challenge to DAC/ADC. + +Potentially only the in band spectrum could be generated by separate converters which would reduce the requirements on individual converters. + +In an implementation, the architecture, RF performance and power consumption of the analogue/digital interface would be key considerations. The ADC and DAC complexity and power consumption could be reduced by reducing the sampling resolution, but this would impact TX factors such as EVM and emissions and RX factors such as dynamic range and RX EVM. For this reason, care would need to be taken that requirements on e.g. EVM, receiver dynamic range and demodulation performance would be achievable. + +In addition to the DAC and ADC, the large bandwidth and sampling rates would lead to very high volumes of data to be moved within the radio architecture. Data transport and interface architectures would need to support the very high data volume. Reducing the data volume (e.g. by reducing the sampling resolution) would lead to similar considerations as for ADC and DAC on meeting requirements such as EVM, emissions, RX dynamic range and demodulation. + +In addition to the interface bandwidth, the digital transport latency may also impact radio near algorithms (such as DPD, CFR) and could impact the performance of the transmitter and receiver. It is not clear whether the need to support a much larger interface bandwidth could impact the interface latency. + +Digital filtering may be needed for meeting selectivity and blocking requirements depending on the sensitivity and architecture. The large sampling rates and bandwidth would increase the amount of computational power needed for digital filtering, and potentially the achievable steepness of the filters. This could impact the feasibility of meeting TX EVM and RX selectivity, blocking and demodulation requirements. + +### Analogue considerations + +The possibilities for analogue filtering within an FR2-1 AAS array are extremely limited. The filter in a typical single-band FR2 BS may not be placed before the antenna. However, it could be the case of multi-band, due to the multi-frequency signal going through the PA if the PA is highly nonlinearity, or due to the architecture splitting multi-band signals. And thus filter before the antenna may be needed. + +Choosing where to place filter components is an important part of a multi-band solution as it impacts the overall performance. For instance, if a filter would need to be placed before the antenna, then there are other issues in practice with insertion loss and power unbalancing due to non-identical filter for each branch. + +The regulatory requirements in the *inter RF gap* and the linearity of the transmitter will set the boundary for the analogue filtering. The feasibility of analogue filtering may impact the ability to meet some regulatory emissions requirements and out of band blocking, and if the filter has ripple also the EVM may be impacted. + +Depending on the array architecture, it may be necessary to split different frequency components of the multi-band signal and route them to different antenna elements, e.g. in architectures using diplexer. The splitting and additional routing can have implications for TX power loss and RX sensitivity, and the placement of components needs to be carefully considered. For instance, placing the diplexer before the PA is preferred from a design loss and power dissipation perspective. This is because the insertion loss of the diplexer occurs at a lower power level and can be accommodated by a simple increase in driver gain. Conversely, if the diplexer is placed after the PA, the insertion loss of the diplexer directly reduces the power available to the antenna array and leads to more thermal dissipation. + +On the other hand, it is worth noting that if the power loss is significantly different/uneven between antenna branches, then beamforming may be degraded, and calibration may be required which may bring complexity to the architecture. This may impact the feasibility of the multi-band solution, although since TX power and RX sensitivity are subject to declarations it may not impact the requirements definition. As shown in Clause 4.2.1 Option #4, splitting and additional routing can be avoided by using a multi-band antenna, such as a single input stacked patch design. + +Dedicated PAs for the desired frequency ranges may be adopted from a design loss and power dissipation perspective, as the narrower band designs will have better efficiency and the thermal dissipation will be spread out over a larger area. + +# --- 6 Study on RF requirements + +## 6.1 Definition of FR2 multi-band BS + +The existing definitions of single-band RIB and *multi-band RIB* for FR1 defined in TS 38.104 are shown as below: + +**multi-band RIB:** *operating band* specific RIB associated with a transmitter or receiver that is characterized by the ability to process two or more carriers in common active RF components simultaneously, where at least one + +carrier is configured at a different *operating band* than the other carrier(s) and where this different *operating band* is not a *sub-band* or *superseding-band* of another supported *operating band*. + +**single-band RIB:** *operating band* specific RIB supporting operation either in a single *operating band* only, or in multiple *operating bands* but does not meet the conditions for a *multi-band RIB*. + +From definition of *multi-band RIB* for FR1, the transmitter or receiver of *multi-band RIB* dependent BS have the capability to process two or more carriers from the different bands in common active RF components simultaneously. For FR2-1, the existing *multi-band RIB* definition for FR1 can be reused. + +As the same with FR1, the existing explanations on BS capable of supporting operation in multiple operating bands in 38.104 [2] for FR1 are sufficient.

It was agreed that this study focuses on the *multi-band RIB* within the same frequency group meanwhile the study on *multi-band RIB* across different frequency groups not precluded. With this agreement, together with the agreements on re-using FR1 multi-band methods and exceptions, there is currently no need for new FR2-1 specific multi-band requirements as the current FR1 multi-band methods and exceptions can be applied to FR2-1 and are sufficient for FR2-1 *multi-band RIB* for all band combinations within the same frequency group. For *multi-band RIB* for band combinations across different frequency groups, the current FR1 multi-band methods and exceptions can also be applied, while FR2-1 specific multi-band requirements may be considered in the future taking into account the implementation challenges. + +# 7 Summary and further work + +The feasibility study for the essential RF components and sub-systems for an FR2-1 multi-band system were carried out and found that: + +- Multi-band implementations with percentage BW of up to 19.5% are feasible. +- Multi-band implementations with greater percentage BW's may be feasible in the future. + +Within these percentage BWs some design blocks such as the PA, and RF front end components are capable of true multi-band performance, other blocks and specifically the phase shifters used for beam forming the different bands need to be applied to separate band specific solutions. There are currently no proposed solutions to enable a wide band beam former to steer beams for different bands in different directions. + +Antennas and antenna arrays are limited to certain maximum percentage BW's however MB solutions using multiple antenna arrays have been investigated and solutions within the agreed percentage BW's above have been identified. + +Other considerations, i.e. on a need of DPD and complications of digital and analogue designs for a wideband / multiband BS are also analysed. + +Considering the wide range of FR2-1 operating bands and potential combinations FR2-1 operating bands have been considered within frequency groups with limited percentage BW's as shown in table 5.1-1 and feasibility analysed within these groups. However, whilst practical limits exist which may limit multi-band solutions to be within these groups no restrictions need to be used in the technical specification and as such frequency groups do not need to be defined with the updates of the technical specifications. On the other hand, as highlighted in clause 6.2 study of solutions across frequency groups may be further studied and the use of additional multi-band requirements may be considered in the future for percentage BW's greater than 19.5%. + +For updating the technical specifications, FR2-1 multi-band requirements are to be added to the existing NR 3GPP TS 38.104 [2] and 3GPP TS 38.141-2 [30] technical specifications, using the same approach as FR1 multi-band as described in clause 6. The existing MB RIB definition as well as the explanations on BS capable of supporting operation in multiple operating bands with different implementations at the RIB in 38.104 [2] for FR1 can also apply to FR2-1. + +# Annex A (informative): Change history + +| Change history | | | | | | | | +|----------------|----------------|------------|------|-----|-----|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------| +| Date | Meeting | TDoc | CR | Rev | Cat | Subject/Comment | New version | +| 2022-08 | RAN4#104-e | R4-2214779 | | | | TR skeleton | 0.0.1 | +| 2022-11 | RAN4#105 | R4-2219148 | | | | The following TP approved at RAN4#104-bis-e was implemented:

The process of selecting paired UEs is called ‘pairing’. As illustrated in Figure 4.1.1-1, UE1 and UE2 are paired and gNB transmits data to both UEs with suitable precoders through the same time-frequency resources. However, the gNB cannot guarantee the perfect pairing of multiple users in the real network. The paired UEs may not perfectly spatially orthogonal to each other and this will induce the intra-cell interference between paired UEs. + +![Diagram of a gNB transmitting data to paired UE1 and UE2 using the same time-frequency resources.](d0abac95583b52a3b35f74a215567334_img.jpg) + +The diagram shows a gNB (base station) at the top center.

The modulation order of PDSCH of paired UEs can be selected independently. The DMRS sequences of paired UEs are assumed to be known for channel estimation purposes for all paired UEs. Note that the DMRS scrambling sequences of paired UEs are assumed to be the same to guarantee orthogonality. + +The PDSCH and DMRS of the paired UEs are precoded prior to transmission. The precoder for each user is denoted by $W'_1$ and $W'_2$ respectively. + +In the scope of this technical report $\mathbf{W}_i$ is the precoder matrix of $i^{\text{th}}$ UE, of size $N_{\text{TX}} \times N_{\text{Li}}$ from Type I single panel codebook as described in [3GPP TS 38.214]. Where, $N_{\text{TX}}$ is the number of TX antenna, $N_{\text{Li}}$ is the number of layers from $i^{\text{th}}$ UE.

The major work includes the determination of network scenario, interference modelling, interference suppressing receiver structure, required information analysis for each candidate receiver, link-level simulation parameters and performance evaluations. + +MU-MIMO scenario with gNB transmits PDSCH to the paired UEs through the same time-frequency resources is evaluated. + +gNBs equipped with 2Tx and 4Tx antennas are considered in the RAN4 performance evaluation. However, for the UEs capable of inter-user interference suppression ability discussed in this TR, they can also be used in the deployments + +with larger number of Tx ports configuration. For the interference suppressing receiver, both E-MMSE-IRC and R-ML are evaluated as candidate advanced receivers. + +RAN4 reaches consensus on the required information for both E-IRC and R-ML receiver. In addition, RAN4 has agreed the network default configuration assumptions. Therefore, the advanced receiving algorithm can be performed under these default assumptions. For some of the default assumptions, it is required for the network to indicate the UE whether the default assumption is valid or not by RRC signalling. For UE with R-ML receiver, DCI based network assistant signalling is required. + +PDSCH link-level simulations are performed to evaluate the performance gain of the candidate E-IRC and R-ML receiver over the baseline MMSE-IRC receiver under intra-cell inter-user interference scenario. 16 simulation cases that covers the advanced receiver with genie-aided required information, with co-scheduled UE DMRS port and FDRA information blind detection, and with co-scheduled UE modulation order blind detection (for R-ML receiver only), are selected for the evaluation. Different antenna and rank configurations for target and interference UEs, different propagation condition, and CBW configurations are included. + +Based on the simulation results, the performance gain of R-ML receiver over the baseline MMSE-IRC receiver is verified. + +Based on the above evaluations, it is recommended to select R-ML as the new advanced receiver for inter-user interference suppression receiver for MU-MIMO scenario in Rel-18, and to introduce necessary new UE capability and network assistant signalling for the selected receiver. + +It is also recommended to define NR PDSCH demodulation requirements for the selected inter-user interference suppression receiver for MU-MIMO scenario in Rel-18. + +# Annex A: Change history + +| Change history | | | | | | | | +|----------------|-----------|------------|----|-----|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------|-------| +| Date | TSG # | TSG Doc. | CR | Rev | Subject/Comment | Old | New | +| 2023-03 | RAN4 #106 | R4-2300127 | | | TR skeleton | | 0.0.1 | +| 2023-08 | RAN4#108 | R4-2311100 | | | Implemented the following TPs endorsed at RAN4#108:

All CP connections terminate in the gNB-CU-CP; if we only look at the logical architecture, the gNB-CU-CP may indeed be considered as a single point of failure. + +For Operator, resiliency of public network is under national regulations or other operational constraints. + +With regard to resiliency TS 38.401[2] includes only the following note: + +NOTE: For resiliency, a gNB-DU may be connected to multiple gNB-CUs by appropriate implementation. + +Furthermore, multiple TNL associations toward the gNB-CU-CP are currently supported by the standard. + +In the event of a failure at gNB-CU-CP, the likely outcome is that all user contexts could be affected and experience user service interruption. + +This study handles failure scenarios for gNB-CU-CP, based on the current NG-RAN architecture. + +Solutions for failure scenarios will not be addressed in this study. + +The nodes shown in Figure 4-1 are logical nodes, i.e., they can be implemented as physical network functions (PNFs) using dedicated hardware (HW) infrastructures or as virtual network functions (VNFs) running as software (SW) functions (e.g., virtual machines (VMs) or cloud-native containers (CNFs)) on general purpose processors (GPPs; with or without HW acceleration support), e.g., in a cloud environment of a data center. + +# --- 5 Study failure scenarios associated with the gNB-CU-CP + +Various perspectives were considered by each company (see the informative Annex A for details). + +A failure scenario for a deployment case with gNB-CU-CP at the antenna site (Distributed RAN/D-RAN) should not be of relevance for this study as an outage would impact the network performance only in a limited local area (similar to an outage of the co-located gNB-DU). Local resiliency measures may therefore be realized in the same way for both logical nodes (dependent on PNF/VNF implementation). + +A more important scenario is the case when a gNB-CU-CP is deployed in a central office location of an operator's network. Those central locations may have transport network (TN) connections (e.g., via tree- or ring-based fibers) to several gNB-DUs located at different antenna sites. In such deployment case the gNB-CU-CP has the responsibility for proper operation of a large number of cells covering a wider regional area, i.e., an outage has a strong impact on overall user experience in a larger part of the mobile network. Each gNB-CU-CP may be connected via multiple TNL associations. As implicitly stated by the note in TS 38.401[2] gNB-DUs at antenna sites may be connected via the same or different TN links to one or several central locations (geo-redundancy) hosting gNB-CU-CP instances. + +The following failure scenarios have been discussed: + +- Hardware failure +- Software failure +- Transport network failure +- Power failure +- Entire gNB-CU-CP failure, e.g., due to natural disaster + +It was confirmed that some failures in the gNB-CU-CP may be addressed by using virtualization technology. + +On the other hand, there is a scenario with possibly an entire gNB-CU-CP failure (e.g. due to natural disasters). Resiliency mechanisms to recover from such failure may be achieved via gNB-DU's connection to multiple gNB-CUs by appropriate implementation, as captured in TS 38.401[2]. + +# --- 6 Conclusion + +In this TR, failure scenario in the existing gNB-CU-CP architecture from various perspectives were studied. + +A failure affecting the entire (logical) gNB-CU-CP would impact all UEs served by the cells of the gNB-DUs connected to the gNB-CU-CP, resulting in those UEs being out of service for potentially long periods of time (dependent on type of failure and available resiliency measures). Current specification allows for some resiliency mechanisms via appropriate implementation (as described in TS 38.401[2]) which can address a number of the failure scenarios. + +# --- Annex (informative): Failure Scenario from each contribution's view + +## A.1 Scenario and issue description (R3-224787) + +### A.1.1 CU SW failure + +#### **Failure reason** + +gNB-CU-CP SW failure caused by software in gNB-CU-CP's equipment. This is mainly caused by information inconsistencies in the software, which in most cases can be resolved by restarting the system (or, in case of a virtualized implementation, by respawning the relevant software parts). + +#### **Failure impact** + +The impact of the failure and the extent of the restart depends on the configuration of the equipment and where the problem occurs. In some cases, the effect may be limited to only some functions in the gNB-CU-CP, while in other cases, all functions in the gNB-CU-CP may be affected. + +### A.1.2 gNB-CU-CP HW failure + +#### **Failure reason** + +gNB-CU-CP HW Failure is a problem caused by the hardware of the gNB-CU-CP, mainly due to aging and deterioration of the HW of the gNB-CU-CP, and in most cases can be resolved by replacing some of the HW in the equipment. + +#### **Failure impact** + +The impact of the failure and the extent of the replacement depends on the configuration of the equipment and the part of the problem. In some cases, only some functions of the gNB-CU-CP will be affected, but it is expected that the whole gNB-CU-CP will be affected, especially in the case of vRAN scenarios. + +### A.1.3 Power outages + +#### **Failure reason** + +Power outages are caused by power grid failures due to various disasters (earthquakes, lightning, tsunamis, fires, windstorms, snowstorms, etc.), as well as by malfunctions of substation equipment or cable breaks in the station building. + +#### **Failure impact** + +The impact of a failure depends on the part of the system where the failure occurs, but often affects multiple gNB-CU-CPs. The higher degree of centralization, the more gNB-CU-CPs will be affected. + +### A.1.4 Transport network failure (out of 3GPP scope) + +#### **Failure reason** + +Transport network failures result from cable breaks in transmission lines, network equipment failures, and misconfigurations. These can also occur as software or hardware malfunctions, disasters, or human error. + +#### **Failure impact** + +The impact of a failure depends on the part of the system where the failure occurs. When the failure occurs outside line, it often affects multiple gNB-CU-CPs. The higher degree of centralization, the more gNB-CU-CPs will be affected. + +### A.1.5 Summary of failure scenarios + +Failures affecting only one gNB-CU-CP can be addressed by existing countermeasures. + +For failures affecting multiple gNB-CU-CPs simultaneously, in particular when the cause of the failure is closely related to the region, such as a disaster, a solution that takes advantage of the different locations for deploying redundant infrastructure should be considered. + +## A.2 Scenario (R3-224281) + +The most relevant scenarios in regard to gNB-CU-CP are those that will incur a failure of the entire gNB-CU-CP. Such cases would affect all the existing UE contexts under the gNB-CU-CP where the failure occurred. Likewise, the disaggregated gNB architecture allows for very large configurations. A given gNB-CU-CP can host 512 gNB-DUs, and a total of 16,384 cells with existing specifications. Furthermore, each cell may be serving hundreds of UEs. Therefore, a gNB-CU-CP failure can incur a very high impact in service availability and user experience for a very large number of UEs. Further, these failure scenarios can incur further problems by generating very high signalling loads from e.g., re-establishment of connections and signalling interfaces. + +In contrast issues affecting only limited portions of the gNB-CU-CP, for example, trouble incurred from individual hardware blades in a virtualized environment, are not the focus of this study. + +### A.2.1 Scenarios A, B, C + +#### (A) Node breakdown leading to a gNB-CU-CP failure + +This failure scenario includes cases where the gNB-CU-CP becomes completely unresponsive. This could be e.g., due to hardware failure, or power source becoming lost and unrecoverable. + +#### (B) Natural disaster leading to loss of the gNB-CU-CP + +This failure scenario includes cases where the gNB-CU-CP becomes unrecoverable due to the node itself becoming destroyed or its required connectivity, hence becoming unrecoverable. This could be result of e.g., an earthquake, tsunami, or major fire. + +#### (C) Human-made disaster leading to loss of the gNB-CU-CP + +This failure scenario is similar to that caused by natural means but with the source of the failure being due to human involvement. This failure could be result e.g., of war, civil war, terrorism or social unrest. + +![Diagram illustrating gNB-CU-CP failure scenarios.

With the increasing number of connected gNB-CU-UP and gNB-DU, gNB-CU-CP will be in the risk of failure caused by the large amount of signalling processing. So this SI will introduce a mechanism to allow the gNB-CU-UP and gNB-DU to recovery service. Higher-layer split between gNB-CU and gNB-DU would enable highly-centralized gNB-CU deployment with large coverage area per gNB-CU, especially from C-Plane perspective. Likewise, Higher-layer split between gNB-CU-CP and gNB-CU-UP would enable highly-centralized gNB-CU-CP deployment with large coverage area per gNB-CU-CP. + +As described in the draft SID, such a centralized gNB-CU(-CP) would be a single point of failure. Hence the resiliency of the gNB-CU(-CP) is highly important. Given the limited time allocated for gNB-CU resiliency, only gNB-CU-CP resiliency should be considered in this release, other network nod, e.g. AMF, gNB CU(non-split CU architecture) should not be considered in this release if time not allowed. + +Failure condition: + +Failure condition is the trigger of gNB-CU-CP resiliency. If a network node is considered a failure when it is crashed completely, then it would be too late to recovery. The network should have scheme to switch part or all of the services/connections to another resilient network node to offload before it completely crashes down. The decision of offloading the service/connection can be either of the below: + +- 1) Up to the implantation of gNB-CU-CP +- 2) The configured threshold from OAM + +Both options work and has no impact to RAN3. So the failure condition can be left to network implementation. + +In addition, if any of the adjacent nodes of gNB-CU-CP, e.g. AMF, gNB-CU-CP and gNB-DU lost the connection to gNB-CU-CP, due to an unexpected gNB-CU-CP failure, adjacent node should be able to activate the resilient gNB-CU-CP automatically. + +## A.4 Scenario and issue description (R3-224324) + +The most critical cases are failures that may happen if a gNB-CU-CP is deployed in a central office location with responsibility for a high number of gNB-DUs and therefore of cells. There are different failure scenarios that may happen in such a deployment scenario: + +- (1) SW or HW failure in a PNF-based implementation; +- (2) VNF (SW) or GPP (HW) failure in a virtualized environment (e.g. cloud-based implementation); +- (3) Failures of NW connections, e.g., TN or server NW card failures; +- (4) Total failure of central location, e.g., caused by a power shutdown or a disaster case. + +For failure scenarios (1) and (2) the gNB-CU(-CP) functionality can be recovered by taking local redundancy in the same central location into account (e.g., based on usage of spare HW (PNF/GPP) for redundancy purposes). A slow recovery can be initiated via OAM orchestrating a new gNB-CU(-CP) instance on the spare HW (e.g., in combination with cloud-based mechanisms in a virtualized environment). A fast recovery approach to bring the outage time down would require active/stand-by operation of a mirror gNB-CU-CP instance in parallel which may be realized in a local environment by appropriate implementation (incl. also cloud-based mechanism in case of virtualization). + +Slow recovery may also work in case of failure scenarios (3) and (4) using a second central location for orchestrating a new gNB-CU-CP instance via OAM, but the critical and more important issue from an operator's perspective is fast recovery in the geo-redundant case as 3GPP specifications do not provide suitable support for it. + +Therefore, the failure case where a benefit of a resiliency enhancement in 3GPP specifications is seen would be: + +- Outage of gNB-CU(-CP) when deployed in a central location without sufficient local redundancy, but availability of geo-redundancy (SW/HW) is given and fast recovery of gNB-CU(-CP) functionality is required by the operator. + +Note: Fast recovery would also incorporate the gNB-CU-UP functionality in a redundant central location if it was running in the primary central location experiencing the failure. + +## A.5 Failure Case (R3-224576) + +*If a gNB-CU-CP fails, the network support for the NR cells is lost and UEs cannot communicate.* More specifically, the following can be observed: + +- CP signaling redundancy is possible in RAN, but still only one RRC-anchor (gNB-CU-CP) is defined: + - SRB duplication is possible in DC (PDCP duplicates RRC messages, which are sent via different carriers to/from UE), but losing the main connection to the UE still means CP failure + - RLF handling: + - Rel-15: if SCG connection fails, inform the network; if MCG fails, the connection is lost + - Rel-16: if SCG/MCG connection fails, inform the network via MCG/SCG. There will be MCG/SCG UP downtime due to DRBs suspension. +- CP failure leading to UP failure (UP failure, leading to service interruption time, is probably the most important KPI associated with a CU-CP failure): + - Generally, an absence of RRC messages is not noted by the UE, so the UE does not know that the CP has failed + - RRC timer expiry procedures in RRC work as long as RRC connectivity is up. In some cases DRBs suspension is caused by the expiration of timers + - If the gNB-CU-CP goes down, CP connectivity is not re-established automatically until the failure is detected + - UP connection could be lost if RRC reconfiguration (critical to maintain UP) is not possible + - e.g. Handover required; bearer reconfiguration required; meet QoS or other RAN reconfiguration required + +There is always a single RRC anchor even for the case of DC; furthermore, there is currently no way for the UE to detect a gNB(-CU(-CP)) failure. + +A CU-CP failure is essentially a node internal failure (i.e. it may not be the whole logical node that fails). + +## A.6 Scenario and issue description (R3-224627) + +### A.6.1 Scenario #1: Geographical Redundancy + +#### A.6.1.1 General description + +Geographical redundancy is the distribution of mission-critical components or infrastructures, such as the servers across multiple data centers that reside in different geographic locations, which is able to ensures high availability and disaster recovery. Geographical redundancy will replicate the data and store it in other databases located in the separate physical locations. Even one of the locations fails or simply needs to be taken offline, the other location with the replicated data will not be affected. + +Considering the geographical redundancy for gNB-CU-CP, the backup gNB-CU-CP could be allocated in the separate physical locations. In this case, even the original gNB-CU-CP detects the failures and cannot work, the appearance of the backup gNB-CU-CP is able to avoid the interruption of multiple UP traffic or the disconnection of multiple UEs. + +## A.7 Scenario and issue description (R3-224754) + +### A.7.1 Local Redundancy + +The split NG-RAN architecture consists of single logical gNB-CU-CP connected to multiple logical gNB-CU-UPs and multiple logical gNB-DUs, and the gNB-CU-CP is connected to multiple AMFs in 5GC. The logical gNB-CU-CP function can be implemented and deployed with the Network Function Virtualization as shown in Figure A.7.1-1. And the logical gNB-CU-CP function can be split further with sub-functions, e.g. network interface sub-function, and each sub-function can be implemented as a virtual network function component (VNFC). + +![Diagram illustrating gNB-CU-CP failure scenarios.

The hardware failure is caused owing to some deterioration or the instant failure of the hardware. Depending on the failure cause, the hardware needs to be replaced or be recovered by rebooting the system. The virtualization platform failure is caused by software error, so it could be also recovered by rebooting the system or by the software upgrade. + +#### A.7.2.2 VNFC (Virtual Network Function Component) Failure + +The logical gNB-CU-CP function can be implemented with sub-functions, e.g. network interface sub-function, and they can be separately implemented as VNFC (Virtual Network Function Component) and interact each other. One or more VNFCs consisting a gNB-CU-CP may not work properly owing to software error or other reason. Mostly the VNFC failure could be recovered by rebooting the system or by the software upgrade. + +#### A.7.2.3 Transport Link Failure (out of 3GPP scope) + +Transport link failure is caused by the malfunction of transport link hardware or software. The failure also comes from the transmission line problem or the transport network equipment failure. If the transport link failure caused in the gNB-CU-CP system, the failure could be recovered by rebooting the system or by the software upgrade. If the failure caused outside the gNB-CU-CP system, the transmission line needs to be substituted or the network equipment needs to be rebooted, upgraded or substituted. + +### A.7.3 Failure Impact + +In any failure scenarios, there exist solutions to recover the logical gNB-CU-CP operation, e.g. system reboot, software upgrade, hardware replacement. Depending on the recovery solution, it may take a few minutes or some days and it may break the service continuity of the gNB-CU-CP. + +So to minimize the interruption of UP traffic and disconnection of UEs, the virtualized gNB-CU-CP function could be duplicated, and the data used is shared and synchronized between duplicated gNB-CU-CP function. And if a failure is detected, the role of duplicated gNB-CU-CP functions are exchanged to support fast switch-over by implementation. + +## A.8 Scenario and issue description (R3-224898) + +### A.8.1 Possible failure scenarios + +The purpose of this SI is to Study and identify failure scenarios associated with the gNB-CU-CP, based on the current architecture for the NG-RAN, which could be referred in 38.401 [2], see below: + +![Figure A.8.1-1 Overall architecture for separation of gNB-CU-CP and gNB-CU-UP.

In such a scenario, it may not always be possible to correctly determine the appropriate core + +network for a connecting UE, especially close to country borders, because the serving cell information may not be granular enough. + +Furthermore, a malicious UE might "fake" its selected PLMN in order to attempt connecting to a different core network. Upon such an attempt the AMF will disconnect the UE and inform the RAN node via an appropriate NGAP cause value, so the RAN can take appropriate action on subsequent attempts by the same UE. + +The UE may send GNSS measurements to the RAN over RRC, but this has at least the following drawbacks: + +- In principle, just as a malicious UE could fake its selected PLMN, it could also fake its GNSS measurements; +- Sending GNSS measurements over RRC before AS security is set up raises security and privacy issues. + +Because of the above, relying only on signalling GNSS measurements over RRC is not considered a viable solution to this issue. + +As recommended in SA3 LS to RAN2 (R2-2204458) the location information is sent after NAS security is established. Even after NAS security establishment, user consent for obtaining UE location information may also be required depending on regional regulation and policy. + +The RAN can also request radio measurements (intra-RAT neighbours, inter-RAT neighbours, WLAN, etc.) from the UE; these may be used to drive NNSF and to learn from the environment. + +Some further observations: + +- a) At least some of the information the UE supplies to the network will have to be considered as trusted, to avoid extreme conclusions (at least RRC measurements cannot be faked); +- b) Core networks connecting to the same shared RAN will always require some degree of common coordination / configuration: this is typically the case for network sharing (especially MOCN). For NTN, this may include e.g. specific timer settings/behaviour for UE connection attempts; +- c) Due to mere traffic load considerations, it may not be desirable to cover whole portions of a continent, including multiple countries, with a single cell. Therefore, in real deployments the served cell information may typically be more granular than in the extreme case envisaged so far. + +The above has been deemed sufficient to mitigate the issue in Rel-17. + +## 4.2 NTN vs. Terrestrial Regulatory Requirements + +A 5G system with satellite access shall be able to determine a UE's location in order to provide service (e.g. route traffic, support emergency calls) in accordance with the governing national or regional regulatory requirements applicable to that UE. (Sec. 6.3.2.3 of TS 22.261 [16]). + +Because of this, even when providing services over entire continents with NTN, there is no "globally harmonized" set of requirements that overrules local ones. This is also valid for UE location information. In this respect, there is no difference between NTN and terrestrial networks. + +Because of the above, for NTN the same required granularity for UE location information estimated via GNSS should be considered as for terrestrial networks. + +## 4.3 Regulatory support of services in NTN + +Network operators of 3GPP defined non-terrestrial network, have to know reliably the location information of a UE attached to the network in order to select the appropriate core network. Once the appropriate core network has been selected for a UE, it is possible to support some services subject to national regulations or other operational constraints. + +In TR 23.737 [2], the list of such services has been identified in key issue #10: + +- Public Warning System (PWS) +- Lawful interception (LI) +- Emergency services (EMS) + +- Charging and Tariff notifications + +In TR 22. 926 [3], it has been identified that *"To support regulated services and features (e.g. Public Warning System, Charging and Billing, Emergency calls, Lawful Intercept, Data Retention Policy in cross-border scenarios and international regions, Network access), 3GPP networks should have the capability to locate each UE in a reliable manner and determine the policy that applies to their operation depending on their location and/or context."* + +Furthermore, in [4], it is pointed out that *"any solution addressing extraterritorial (e.g. international maritime zone and aeronautical) use cases should provide means to notify the HPLMN on roaming in and out of those areas, including the cases when the serving PLMN has not changed."* + +Relying only on the GNSS based location information reported by the UE is not considered reliable by SA3-LI [4]. + +The UE reported location information (for example determined with its GNSS receiver), could be erroneous due to intentional (e.g. maliciously tampering by user or by 3rd party) or unintentional (e.g. interference) causes, hence it cannot be considered trusted by network operators. + +Already 3GPP has defined a network based functionality to verify the reported UE location with the identifier of the serving cell. However, radio cells in non-terrestrial networks, may be larger than the ones of terrestrial networks and may cover borders between two or more countries. Therefore, such Cell Id information may not be sufficient to discriminate the country in which the UE is located. + +It is expected that solutions combining both UE reported GNSS information and network based information for verification of UE location can improve the reliability of core network selection in non-terrestrial networks. This is important for + +- Services subject to national regulations or other operational constraints. (e.g. Public Warning System (PWS), Lawful interception (LI), Emergency services (EMS), Charging and Tariff notifications). +- Cases where the UE reported location information (for example determined with its GNSS receiver), could be erroneous due to intentional (e.g. maliciously tampering by user or by 3rd party) or unintentional (e.g. interference) causes. +- NTN radio cells larger than terrestrial network radio cells and possibly covering borders between two or more countries. + +In order to define an appropriate network based solution to verify UE location, it is necessary to determine requirements for the verification accuracy. Note that these requirements should not be assumed to be the same as the regulatory requirements applicable to the UE location in terms of Accuracy, Reliability (related to law enforcement and liability), Latency and Privacy as identified in Annex A. + +As identified in annex A.2, SA3-LI recommends in S3i200056 [4] that *"The logical location shall unambiguously map to the geographical area of the UE physical location. Granularity of such geographical areas needs to be able to provide network location accuracy comparable with terrestrial networks."* + +In terrestrial networks, verification is based on Cell Id and hence, the targeted granularity is related to cell size. Similar granularity should be considered for NTN. Terrestrial macro cell size is assumed to be up to 5-10 km diameter. + +## 4.4 LCS and NTN + +Most UE positioning functionality is typically UE-associated, i.e., it assumes that a UE context is present for the UE being positioned. This means that the UE itself has already completed the initial access procedures. Because of this, all observations and mitigations already discussed in Rel-17 are still relevant and applicable. + +# --- 5 Recommendations + +In this study, we have identified the need to define a network based solution which aims at verifying the reported UE location information. + +The verification should be performed independently from the location information reported by UE. + +The UE location information for the study is considered verified if the reported UE location is consistent with the network based assessment to within 5-10 km (similar to terrestrial network macro cell size), enabling country discrimination and selection of an appropriate core network in order to support all the regulatory services (i.e. emergency call, lawful intercept, public warning, charging/billing). + +The solution should not impact significantly the latency of the targeted services nor infringe privacy requirements that apply to the UE location. + +The study in [RAN2,RAN1,RAN3], which will study and evaluate solutions for the network to verify UE reported location information, shall consider the following aspects: + +- The scenario of single satellite (or HAPS) in view by the UE at a time is considered with higher priority. + - Multiple satellite (or HAPS) in view by the UE may be considered if time allows +- Assume that the UE is attached to a network (so that its context has been set up in the network) for the purpose of positioning +- Different solutions or positioning methods for NGSO, GSO or HAPS are not precluded +- When considering solutions based on positioning methods, existing 3GPP defined RAT dependent positioning methods shall be considered as baseline. Other methods are not precluded. +- Solutions using existing NG-RAN architecture and procedures shall be considered + +# Annex A (informative): Requirements for UE location verification + +## A.1 Emergency calls + +It refers to a telephone request or text message request for emergency services (e.g. police, fire departments, or other first responders) which requires immediate action to prevent loss of life, reduce bodily injury, prevent or reduce loss of property and respond to other emergency situations determined by local policy. + +#### Accuracy + +Accuracy requirements for emergency calls have been identified in TR 22.872 [5], where the position accuracy is required to be [50m Horizontal, 3m Vertical] which are the most demanding of the regulated services in terms of accuracy requirements. This is in line with the requirements of two major regulatory bodies and summarized as follows: + +**Table A.1-1: Accuracy requirements for emergency calls** + +| Regulatory body | Accuracy requirements | +|-----------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| EC [6] | "capability to achieve a horizontal position error of maximum 5 metres in open sky conditions and maximum 25 metres in urban canyon conditions with a confidence level of 95 % (2s coverage factor), where open sky conditions and urban canyon conditions are as defined, respectively, in points 2.1.8 (Figure 1) and 2.2.4.2 (Figure 3) of Annex VI to Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/793" The European directive is based on an assumption of use of GNSS as positioning technology as specified in ETSI TS 103 625 [10]. | +| FCC [7] | In 2020, the FCC specifies a 50-meter horizontal accuracy or provide a dispatchable location for 70 percent of all wireless 911 calls, which increases to 80 percent of all calls in 2021. From 2021 onwards, an additional requirement to achieve an accuracy with $\pm 3\text{m}$ is applies in addition. | + +#### Reliability + +In this case, the mobile network operator may be liable for the provision of a "reliable" UE location (either network verified or network provided) that will be the basis to the organisation of personal assistance or rescue. + +#### Latency + +The delay to determine the UE location should be minimised to ensure timely assistance or rescue, + +While a typical call set-up is less than a second, the delay for UE location determination should not impact significantly this communication set-up time. + +## A.2 Lawful intercept (LI) + +As a legally sanctioned official access to private communications, Lawful Interception (LI) is a security process in which a service provider or network operator collects and provides law enforcement officials with intercepted communications of private individuals or organizations. + +LI implementation is required for example by the European Council Resolution from 1995 [12] which allows for LI to prevent crime, including fraud and terrorism. + +#### Accuracy + +For lawful intercept, SA3-LI recommends in [4] that "*The logical location shall unambiguously map to the geographical area of the UE physical location. Granularity of such geographical areas needs to be able to provide network location accuracy comparable with terrestrial networks.*" + +Given that for such use cases, the location accuracy in terrestrial networks is mostly based on cell ID, it directly relates to the typical cell size. Hence a macro cell size granularity (accepted granularity by SA3-LI) should be sufficient to detect country border crossings. + +#### Reliability + +In this case, Law enforcement applies, and therefore the mobile network operator shall be able to provide a "reliable" UE location (either network verified or network provided). + +In S3i210282 [8], it is noted that *"any method which relies solely on UE-generated location information is unlikely to be considered reliable for network selection purposes. Therefore, a method such as GNSS/A-GNSS cannot be considered as reliable or trusted unless the information provided by the UE can be verified by the network."* + +#### Latency + +No regulatory requirement have been identified for this. Despite this, NTN location determination should not significantly impact the LI service as provided by an TN network. + +## A.3 Public warning Service (PWS) + +PWS is usually realised (based on country regulator rules) by CellBroadcast, which provides a direct selectivity by cellID (sends the message to all devices registered in a base station) but can reach sector accuracy (each of the antenna emitters in the same cellID) to provide geographical accuracy. E.g. to alert half of the city that is getting an imminent flood but not the other half which is on a higher positions. + +Alternatively Location-Based SMS may be used, and same selectivity shall be employed. That will rely on reliable location, and at least cellID is expected to be necessary. + +In its Directive (EU) 2018/1972 [11], the European Union states in (293) that + +*"Diverging national law has developed in relation to the transmission by electronic communications services of public warnings regarding imminent or developing major emergencies and disasters. In order to approximate law in that area, this Directive should therefore provide that, when public warning systems are in place, public warnings should be transmitted by providers of mobile number-based interpersonal communication services to all end-users concerned. The end-users concerned should be considered to be those who are located in the geographic areas potentially being affected by imminent or developing major emergencies and disasters during the warning period, as determined by the competent authorities."* + +#### Accuracy + +One can assume that the service should be provided over the targeted area with an equivalent granularity as obtained in terrestrial networks that is cell size related. Hence a macro cell size granularity should be sufficient. + +#### Reliability + +There are no explicit regulatory requirement for this. Despite this, NTN location determination should follow same reliability requirements as the PWS systems. + +#### Latency + +No regulatory requirement have been identified for this. Despite this, NTN location determination should not impact significantly the PWS service as provided by an TN network. + +## A.4 Charging and Tariff notifications + +Tariff refer to the set of parameters defining the applied charge for the use of a particular bearer /session / service. + +#### Accuracy + +As per Public warning service, knowing the context of the UE (country or aeronautical/maritime) is sufficient for charging and tariff notifications. + +One can assume that the accuracy of the UE location service should be similar to the one in typical terrestrial mobile networks that is cell size related. Hence a macro cell size granularity should be sufficient. + +#### Reliability + +It is the responsibility of the Mobile network operator to ensure via reliable methods that the UE is effectively in a given context for appropriate charging/billing. + +#### Latency + +No regulatory requirement have been identified for this. Despite this, NTN location determination should not significantly impact the charging/tariff service as provided by an TN network. + +## A.5 All regulated services + +#### Privacy + +In [13], it is stated in article (71) that *"The data subject should have the right not to be subject to a decision, which may include a measure, evaluating personal aspects relating to him or her which is based solely on automated processing and which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, such as automatic refusal of an online credit application or e-recruiting practices without any human intervention. Such processing includes 'profiling' that consists of any form of automated processing of personal data evaluating the personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning the data subject's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences or interests, reliability or behaviour, location or movements, where it produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her.

If a test case or requirement was not-testable in an older Release (e.g. Rel-15), and a new test method or procedure unblocks it in Rel-17, then the method can be said to be release-independent and would apply to the older release. +2. If we call one of the enhanced test methodologies as a Rel-17 test equipment feature, then a test equipment setup implementing the earlier release conformance test specification should be allowed to bring in a Rel-17 feature, provided that it meets all of the applicable Rel-17 requirements for that feature. +3. When there is a core requirement change (or modification/relaxation) in, e.g. Rel-17, to enable testing/unblock testability issues, then the requirement change should be applicable only from Rel-17 onwards. +4. When the enhanced test methodology applies to a UE feature supported only from a specific release, the test method becomes applicable only from that release onwards. + +# 5 UE RF testing methodology enhancements + +## 5.1 High DL power and low UL power + +### 5.1.1 General + +The investigation of high DL power and low UL power enhancements to the FR2 test methodology includes the following aspects: scope of test cases with high DL power and low UL power issues, enhanced test systems, including the investigation of non-permitted systems, enhancements to permitted methods, manufacturer declarations, beam management sensitivity of the DUT in near-field test system environments, and path loss comparison across system types. + +Table 5.1.1-1 below provides a summary of the test cases and testability issues. + +**Table 5.1.1-1: Summary of test cases and testability issues** + +| Clause | Requirement | Testability issue | Test Metric | +|---------|---------------------------------------|-------------------|------------------------------------------------------| +| 6.3.1 | Minimum output power | Low UL power | EIRP (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle). | +| 6.3.2 | Transmit OFF power | Low UL power | TRP (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=TRP grid) | +| 6.5.1 | Occupied bandwidth | Low UL power | OBW (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle) | +| 6.5.2.3 | Adjacent channel leakage ratio | Low UL power | TRP (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=TRP grid). | +| 6.5.3.2 | Additional spurious emissions | Low UL power | TRP (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=TRP grid). | +| 7.4 | Maximum input power | High DL power | EIS (Link=RX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle). | +| 7.5 | Adjacent channel selectivity (case 1) | High DL power | EIS (Link=RX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle) | +| 7.5 | Adjacent channel selectivity (case 2) | High DL power | EIS (Link=RX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle) | +| 7.6.2 | In-band blocking | High DL power | EIS (Link=RX beam peak direction, Meas=Link angle) | +| 7.9 | Receiver spurious emissions | Low UL power | TRP (Link=TX beam peak direction, Meas=TRP grid). | + +The investigation of test methodology enhancements to strive to reduce the testability issues which were identified includes study of the feasibility of enhancing test systems which are permitted in TR38.810 [3] as well as test systems which are not permitted. Non-permitted test systems according to TR38.810 [3] are not required to verify all requirements in TS38.101-2 [2]. The candidate test systems are limited to near-field (NF) based solutions and include the following solutions: + +- The Direct near-field (DNF) system assumes that all measurements and call setups are performed with a measurement probe in the NF of the DUT. +- The Combined far-field/near-field (CFFNF) system utilizing a transform-based approach assumes that the UE beamlock function (UBF) activation is performed towards the FF beam peak direction based on the far-field method and then test case procedures are performed with measurement probe(s) in the NF of the DUT. +- Combined far-field/direct-near-field (CFFDNF) system assumes that the UE beamlock function (UBF) activation is performed towards the FF beam peak direction based on the far-field method and then test case procedures are performed based on the direct near-field method. +- Combined far-field/delta-near-field (CFFdeltaNF) system utilizing a relative measurement approach assumes that the UE beamlock function (UBF) activation is performed towards the FF beam peak direction based on the far-field method, a reference test case without testability issues is performed both in FF and NF to obtain the relative correction factor, and the final test case procedure are performed in the NF and compensated with the relative correction factor. + +The applicability of these NF methodologies is further outlined in Clause 5.1.4. + +### 5.1.2 Beam management sensitivity study of NF based solutions + +#### 5.1.2.1 Simulation assumptions + +For NF based solutions, where beam peak search is necessary to perform all applicable test case procedures, an evaluation of UE beam management sensitivity to magnitude/phase variation of the DL signal is needed.

The EIRP simulations were performed using Matlab and CST. + +The simulations assume that the FF beam peak direction of the DUT is known for the sample DUT considered. + +For the statistical analyses using Matlab, a total of 100,000 simulations with random and uniformly spaced offsets were performed.

Figure 5.1.4.4-9 illustrates the differences of the simulated 8x2 antenna patterns between Matlab (solid lines) and CST (dashed lines) both for the FF interface distance of $2D^2/\lambda$ , i.e., 47cm at 28GHz with $D=5\text{cm}$ , (red lines) and the NF interface distance of , i.e., 7cm at 28GHz with $D=5\text{cm}$ , (blue lines) in two principal cuts. Clearly, the agreement between Matlab and CST simulations of a dipole-based antenna element array placed over a ground plane is very good in both NF and FF. The CST analyses which used a grid size of $1^\circ$ in $\Delta\theta$ and $\Delta\phi$ . Those results are summarized in Table 5.1.4.4-6 and assume that array offsets and the feed probe have been compensated. The simulations with the limited number of offsets assumed the same offsets were used in Matlab and CST.

If both the high-UL power and low-UL power tests operate the PA in its perfect linearity region, the beam pattern shape change between high and low power is small and negligible under same antenna configuration as illustrated in Figure 5.1.4.8-1 (left plot), but if the high-UL power case working point is approaching the beginning of the nonlinearity region, for some beamforming tilt direction the beam pattern shape in the high-UL power case will have a large difference compared to the low-UL power case as illustrated in Figure 5.1.4.8-1 (right plot). This will then yield a relatively large error introduced by using the correlation factor deduced from the high-UL power case. + +![Figure 5.1.4.8-1: CDF of Correlation Factor with different PA model assumptions.

This phased antenna array has an 8x8 configuration and supports beam steering using external control of the code books. The FF measurements were performed at 84 cm while the NF measurements were performed at 20 cm. Three beam steering directions, i.e., $-60^\circ$ , $0^\circ$ , and $60^\circ$ were considered.

The NF and FF EIRP patterns at 26 GHz are plotted in Figure 5.1.4.8-2 for the high-UL and low-UL power operations. It should be noted that the path loss (to the centre of QZ) was compensated in these plots already. Some pattern changes between the FF and NF patterns but also pattern changes between the high-UL and low-UL operation can be noticed. + +The measurement results for the three different beam steering directions are tabulated in Table 5.1.4.8-5. The estimated FF EIRP for the low-UL case is compared with the measured EIRP to determine the error in the CFFdeltaNF EIRP MU. Clearly, the results show that the FF EIRP can be estimated well but the pattern changes due to low-UL vs high-UL power operation can introduce some MUs.

Instead, the low-UL power measurement is the result of performing measurements at frequencies that yield low EIRPs when compared to the EIRPs at the reference frequency, e.g., ACLR. Therefore, the test procedure for this approach is as follows with the first 4 steps identical and slightly adjusted steps 5 and 6 to the approach introduced earlier: + +- Step 1: Measure FF EIRP of the DUT in the FF beam peak direction for high-UL power with the FF probe at the reference frequency +- Step 2: Perform a local search around the FF beam peak direction for high-UL power with the NF probe without compensating the probe antenna pattern at the reference frequency. +- Step 3: Measure NF EIRP of the DUT in the NF beam peak direction (determined in Step 2) for high-UL power with the NF probe at the reference frequency +- Step 4: Determine the correlation factor (difference between FF and NF EIRP measurements in Steps 1 and 3) and add the pathloss differences at the desired frequency +- Step 5: Measure NF EIRP of the DUT in the NF beam peak direction with the NF probe at the desired frequency other than the reference frequency +- Step 6: Estimate the FF EIRP for the desired frequency with the correlation factor determined in Step 4 and the NF EIRP measured in Step 5 + +The simplified PA model described in the previous section is used in this simulation.

The mismatch between the TE and UE may lead such UEs to disable a Tx chain associated with one DL polarization and may result in an EIRP measurement which fails to include the polarization gain at some test points; +- UL polarization basis mismatch for demodulation. Some UE implementations may support uplink transmission diversity schemes which, although transparent to the specification, impact the demodulation performance when the UL signal is demodulated on just a single polarization. + +Therefore, these two issues are addressed separated with different approach. The potential solutions to minimize the impact of polarization basis mismatch address two distinct goals: to enhance the EIRP measurement of UEs with various capabilities, and to enhance the test equipment demodulation performance in the uplink, such that a test mode to disable Tx diversity at the UE is no longer necessary for the UE to perform conformance testing. + +### 5.2.2 Enhanced test method for EIRP measurement + +#### 5.2.2.1 TPMI method + +Transmitted Matrix Precoding Indicator (TPMI) is the basis of codebook based transmission enabling multi-port antenna transmission.

In FR2, dual polarization can be regarded as dual antenna ports, so it is natural to activate dual polarization transmission with TPMI side condition in EIRP measurement procedure. However, for TPMI supporting dual antenna ports, the number of SRS ports (*nrofSRS-Ports*) is configured as 2 for both one layer transmission with ‘full power transmission’ and two layers transmission with regular UL MIMO, as specified in clause 6.1 of TS 38.101-2 [2]: + +For a UE that supports 'UL full power transmission' and is configured to transmit a single layer with $nrofSRS-Ports = 2$ , the requirements for UL MIMO operation apply only when it is configured for any of its declared full power modes in IE *FullPowerTransmission-r16* (as defined in TS 38.331[13]). + +For a UE configured to transmit 2 layers, transmitter requirements for UL MIMO operation apply when the UE transmits on 2 ports on the same CDM group.

The 'Layer mapping' block also contains a diversity matrix $G = \begin{bmatrix} g_{1,1} & g_{1,2} \\ g_{2,1} & g_{2,2} \end{bmatrix}$ . The outputs of the 'Layer mapping' block are then processed by 'IFFT' blocks and 'TX Front-end' blocks. The entire 'Layer mapping' block is labeled 'DUT' (Device Under Test). + +Figure 5.2.3.1.2.2-1: UE implementation model. This diagram shows the internal structure of the UE, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 processing, Tone Mapping, Layer mapping (with precoder matrix W and diversity matrix G), IFFT, and TX Front-end blocks. + +Figure 5.2.3.1.2.2-1: UE implementation model + +Here, the effective channel (HGW) as seen by the TE can be represented by a 2x2 matrix for each subcarrier ('SC'). The process of equalization is implemented by multiplying data collected simultaneously at the TE receiver ports 'y' by an equalization matrix 'A'. A unique 'A' matrix is computed for each SC. Using the ZF equalization method, 'A' is generated as the inverse of the estimate 'F' of the effective channel HGW for that SC. + +; where + +For each SC, the train of reconstructed symbols and received symbols are jointly used to estimate $F$ (effective channel, also per SC), by minimizing the LSE between the received symbols and those that are calculated from the estimated channel and the reconstructed symbols, over all the symbols in the measurement interval. This technique is a 2L generalization of the legacy method to estimate the legacy rank 1 channel. This LSE minimization procedure results in the following channel estimate: + +Where $\mathbf{x}_k$ and $\mathbf{y}_k$ are respectively the $k^{\text{th}}$ transmitted and received OFDM symbol in the measurement interval: + +Note the strong resemblance to the expression for channel estimate for the single layer legacy demodulation case. + +While $A$ can be taken as the inverse of ' $F$ ' for the ZF equalizer, we show later that there is a more general form of $A$ that helps streamline single layer and 2L treatments. Two aspects bear further consideration: the existence of $F$ and the invertibility of ' $F$ ', see section 5.2.3.1.2.5. The detailed treatment logically derives that if either $F$ or $F^{-1}$ do not exist, it is because the UE cannot support an OTA channel (coded into matrix ' $H$ ') of rank 2, and is unable to maintain valid 2L UL. Failure to calculate either of the quantities therefore is tied to poor UE implementation rather than TE limitation. + +Noting that $A$ is the inverse of the estimate of the product $HGW$ , the equalization step can be written as: + +The matrix equation can be resolved into 2 separate scalar equations corresponding to the two layers: + +Where, $\hat{x}_m$ represents equalized layer data ' $m$ ', $x_m$ represents reconstructed (ideal) layer ' $m$ ' data, and $v_m$ represents noise accompanying ideal layer data ' $m$ ' after equalization. Note that the transmitted symbols are recovered without phase or gain modification, albeit in the presence of accompanying noise (responsible for EVM degradation). This is the case for every allocated SC – when the symbol on each sub carrier on each layer is reproduced without gain modification as this method does, no flatness artefacts are introduced into the measurements. + +###### 5.2.3.1.2.3 Method 2 Maximal Ratio Combining + +The channel estimate remains of the same form as in the 2L case, but the dimensions are now $2 \times 1$ because $x$ is now a scalar for the single layer case: + +Because $x$ is a scalar, $(\sum x x^H)^{-1}$ is merely the reciprocal of a scalar quantity. Consequently, there are no numerical corner cases pertaining to existence of the quantity to ponder. + +Due to $F$ not being square, the equalization matrix ' $A$ ' must be derived as the pseudo inverse of $F$ , rather than a true inverse as in the 2L case: + +This type of ZF equalizer implements MRC for the single layer case. Note that this expression simplifies to $A=F^{-1}$ for the 2L case, and so, ' $A_{SL}$ ' is a more general construction for ' $A$ ' that is applicable to both cases (single layer as well as 2L). + +###### 5.2.3.1.2.4 Method 2 EVM equalizer flatness + +In the legacy single layer UL case, the channel estimate for each SC was a (complex) scalar, so it was straightforward to evaluate equalizer flatness. In the 2L test case however, the channel equalizer ' $A$ ' consists of 4 elements, 2 for each layer. Framing $A$ as a row vector: + +For layer ‘ $m$ ’, recall that the ZF equalization coefficients for each layer $A_m^T$ are scaled to diagonalize the channel. There is no realistic bound on the relative ratios of the coefficients, but the coefficients together preserve any frequency domain shape of the channel. Therefore, a composite parameter $c_m$ for each layer ‘ $m$ ’ can be used to evaluate the equalizer spectrum flatness, given by: + +Or + +The FR2 single layer case is merely a subset of the 2L case, where ‘ $m$ ’ can take on just one value: 1. + +###### 5.2.3.1.2.5 Method 2 channel invertibility considerations + +Recall that $F$ , the estimate of the effective channel for each sub carrier is derived as an averaging operation over multiple OFDM symbols: + +The existence of $F$ depends on the sum matrix $\Sigma_{xx^H}$ being rank 2. Recall now that ‘ $x_k$ ’ is the train of constellation symbols per SC, for both layers, as embedded in the train of OFDM symbols. For pseudo-random data, the sum matrix $\Sigma_{xx^H}$ accumulates positive values along the diagonal, and random zero-mean values in off diagonal locations (cross correlation across independent data). As the number of OFDM symbols increases in the averaging interval, this matrix tends towards a multiple of an identity matrix. Could this matrix be rank 1 in some corner case? Mathematically, this can happen only if ‘ $x$ ’ is the same (both layers) in a SC for all OFDM symbols in the averaging interval. This outcome is extremely improbable if not impossible due to reliance on scramblers and standardized pseudo-random data generators in the UE. One can therefore conclude that $F$ exists if the TE can merely work out ‘ $x_k$ ’. Since the TE estimates ‘ $x_k$ ’ by decoding measured data (see figure 2.2.1-1), the TE still depends on the UE’s ability to transmit data with enough inter-layer isolation to allow reconstruction. If $F$ does not exist or is ill conditioned, it must mean that the UE is unable to maintain valid 2L UL. + +The invertibility of ‘ $F$ ’ depends on the invertibility of the cross-correlation term $\Sigma_{yx^H}$ in the expression for ‘ $F$ ’: + +The first term inside the parenthesis ( $GW\Sigma_{xx^H}$ ) involves 2 unitary matrices multiplied by a strongly diagonal matrix (as discussed in the section about the existence of $F$ ), and so remains rank 2. The second term inside the parenthesis ( $\Sigma_{nx^H}$ ) is a measure of correlation between noise and data symbols. + +‘Noise’ can be truly thermal (low output power cases) in which case the second term would tend towards an all-zero matrix and can be ignored. We can therefore conclude that in low output power cases, $\Sigma_{yx^H}$ is rank 2 (i.e it is invertible) if $H$ is also rank 2. Now, $H$ contains information about the UE antenna’s cross-pol isolation: $H$ is strongly rank 2 for UE implementations with good cross-pol isolation. $H$ loses rank or becomes ill-conditioned if the UE’s transmit chains suffer from high antenna correlation. If $F$ is not invertible or is ill conditioned, the reason can be traced back to the UE’s inability to maintain valid 2L UL. + +Alternatively, the ‘noise’ can be composed of third order non-linearity from a PA. This is the case for high output power cases. A PA can be approximated by the time domain normalized characteristic shown here ( $k_3 > 0$ ): + +The cubic term retains strong correlation with the linear term, so the PA model’s cubic term output can be approximated as sum of a correlated component (‘ $a \cdot x$ ’, where ‘ $a$ ’ is related to the correlation coefficient of the cubic term to the linear term) and an un-correlated component (‘ $n_{un}$ ’). In the post-FFT frequency domain, $\Sigma_{yx^H}$ can be rewritten as: + +We focus on the matrix inside the parenthesis: + +The third term inside the parenthesis is a measure of correlation between data and the un-correlated component, which (by definition) would tend towards an all-zero matrix and can be ignored, like the low output power case. There is still risk of $\Sigma_{yx^H}$ losing rank and becoming non-invertible, however, for example if the matrix $(GW - a \cdot k_3 \cdot I)$ loses rank. + +Note that this mechanism (3<sup>rd</sup> order nonlinearity) also exists in the case of demodulation by TE with single chain receivers, and experience tells us that PA non-linearity products do not contribute to a situation where the channel cannot be inverted. Legacy demodulation procedures therefore serve as empirical proof of the argument that the matrix $(G \cdot W - a \cdot k_3 \cdot I)$ never loses rank. + +Physically, for compliant UEs, $|k_3|$ is in the range of 0.10-0.20 in normalized form, and $a$ , while PAPR dependent, can be verified to be $\leq 2$ for NR UL waveforms. We also note that matrices $G$ and $W$ are unitary, which allows direct comparison of the terms in $(GW - a \cdot k_3 \cdot I)$ ; the relative magnitude of $|a \cdot k_3|$ is small enough that matrix $B$ would still be dominated by the first term $(GW - \Sigma x x^H)$ for the range of EVMs expected to be measured. We therefore expect $B$ is rank 2 for pseudo random data. Consequently, here too, rank of $\Sigma y x^H$ depends solely on rank of $H$ . i.e $\Sigma y x^H$ is rank 2 (i.e it is invertible) if $H$ is also rank 2. If $F$ is still not invertible (i.e $\Sigma y x^H$ is rank 1), it is because the UE cannot support an OTA channel ( $H$ ) of rank 2, and is unable to maintain valid 2L UL. + +This treatment can conclude with the observation that both $F$ and $F^{-1}$ exist provided the UE can support a rank 2 OTA channel, i.e $\text{rank}(H)=2$ . + +###### 5.2.3.1.2.6 Method 2 DC (LO) cancellation + +EVM calculation is gated by the TE's procedure to cancel LO. Per existing signaling, only one LO location can be declared per BWP for the carrier being tested, be it single layer or two. More significantly, the only locations allowed to be declared are SC locations. For NR, LO cancellation based on signaling declaration of LO location can therefore be performed either pre- or post-FFT. Per layer quantities are only available in the post-FFT, post-equalization domain where the channel has already been diagonalized, so the focus in the treatment below is the post-FFT method. + +A UE can expect LO cancellation only if the LO location is signalled in terms of a valid subcarrier location. If the UE reports 3300 or 3301 via IE *txDirectCurrentLocation* the TE or network can get no information on LO location other than 'it does not coincide with the FFT grid'. This aspect is consistent with the exception in the core-requirement pertaining to this IE. + +The following passage describes a method based on post-FFT LO removal based on LO location declaration via IE *txDirectCurrentLocation*. Post-FFT LO removal involves removing dependency on the LO-bearing SC or being able to ignore the impact of LO leakage. + +Recall that each allocated SC has an instantiation of the post-FFT procedure outlined in figure 2.2.1-2. The equalization matrix 'A' is calculated for each sub carrier and is derived from reconstructed symbols recovered from processing DMRS. In NR, DMRS symbols do not occupy each SC of the OFDM symbol, necessitating some form of interpolation for DMRS-less sub carriers. To minimize impact of LO leakage on the accuracy of the process of reconstructing the transmitted symbols, a logical choice is to select a DMRS comb that skips over the SC declared to have the LO leakage. + +While it is relatively easy to ensure that the reconstruction process remains free of impact from LO leakage by using the comb, the measured symbols 'y' for the LO-bearing SC still contain a systematic and constant leakage term for all OFDM symbols in the measurement interval. + +; where + +where $c_1$ and $c_2$ are complex constants pertaining to the LO leakage. The channel estimate for the LO-bearing SC starts with the LSE estimate: + +There are multiple options to deal with this extra term from LO leakage $(C(\Sigma x^H(\Sigma x x^H)^{-1}))$ . The first option is to use a very long-term averaging to determine 'F' for the LO-bearing SC. Since 'C' is a constant and $(\Sigma x^H)$ can reasonably be assumed to be zero for a long enough average, the contribution of the first term reduces to zero. So, the first option is to do nothing other than ensure a very long-term average is used for calculating 'F' for the LO bearing SC. The second option is to interpolate from neighbour SCs to determine F for the LO-bearing SC. Other, more sophisticated treatments may also exist. 'F' calculated from either of these methods can be compared to 'F' calculated using the LSE-estimate expression over the standard measurement interval to derive the value of 'C' for the measured interval. + +The equalization equation for an LO-bearing SC is: + +![Diagram of the equalization equation for an LO-bearing SC.

This assumption holds for the class of inter-band CA configurations to which the independent beam management (IBM) type is applicable. It is observed that at least for IBM inter-band CA requirements, AoA offsets of up to 7 degrees between two FR2 CA component carriers do not significantly impact the PSD difference assumption taken for the core requirement. This observation should be double-checked after the band n262 requirements are finalized and the scope of CA configurations with n262 are understood. + +Further note that as part of the Rel-17 FR2 RF enhancement work item, RAN4 is discussing the potential definition of requirements assuming common beam management (CBM) for combination of certain band groups, such as 28+28 GHz.

The architecture allows for a quiet zone (QZ) roughly the size of the spot on the mirror illuminated by the source. The key to this architecture is locating the source at the focus of the parabola that describes the mirror. + +The burgeoning number of FR2 bands place increasing demands on both, the antenna, as well as the RFFE in test equipment. + +The effect of off-focus test system antenna in IFF systems was studied before listing ramifications to inter-band test requirements. The components of the IFF are much larger than the wavelength of signals under test. The primary effect of the EM solution to the IFF problem can hence be determined by an equivalent optics problem. + +From the geometry of a parabola, there is a unique location (the focus) that allows a test antenna to appear as a far-field antenna after reflection off the mirror. The far-field characteristic comes from the wavefront geometry that is transformed by the mirror from spherical to planar. The planar wavefront is normal to the optical axis of the mirror. Unfortunately, the favorable characteristics of the parabolic mirror are limited to proper placement of the source, and optical aberration is expected outside the geometry demands specific to the mirror in use. For example, in astronomy, the ‘coma’ aberration has long been associated with telescopes when wavefronts of incoming light are not normal to the optical axis. + +To simplify the problem, the following assumptions were made about the IFF system, which was modelled with a 2D ray tracer: + +1. The TE antenna was modelled as a point light source with uniform illumination in the hemisphere facing the mirror, and no illumination facing the source. +2. Light not incident on the mirror was modelled as being perfectly absorbed by the background +3. Edge effects of the mirror were not considered +4. The primary focal length was chosen to be 0.65m, for an effective focal length with the offset mirror of $\sim 0.7$ m. The mirror offset was such that the mirror extended from $y = 0.2$ m to $y = 0.5$ m off the optical axis. +5. QZ plane was placed orthogonal to the optical axis 1.5 m away from the point where the axis intersects the parabola. + +6. Source-to-source interaction, in case of multiple sources, are neglected +7.

The first observation is that the nominal QZ is located between $y = 0.2$ and $y=0.5$ , which coincides with the mirror extents in the y-dimension. This detail is expected. The second observation is that an isotropic source gets transformed to a non-uniform illumination at the QZ. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.1-1: a: Mirror and source locations; b : Source to QZ power density distortion.

Note that the focus is off the mirror normal due to 'offset mirror' geometry, so it has a non-zero value. In the example studied, the focus is 15.4 degrees below mirror normal, and the other off-focus source locations studied all have lower angular offsets than the focus. In figure 5.3.2.2.1-3 we show that the rate of increase beam tilt and the rate of increase in angular offset of the source are very similar, i.e. close to 1:1 for the geometry studied. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.1-3: Beam tilt due to off-focus source.

In case of our example, the nominal QZ extends from $(x=1.5, y=0.2)$ to $(x=1.5, y=0.5)$ . Beam tilt causes the illuminated spot in the plane of the QZ to move off the nominal QZ location. When multiple sources illuminate the mirror, the effective QZ size reduces to the common area across the beams from all sources. Beam tilt consequently has the effect of reducing the effective QZ size. See figure 5.3.2.2.1-4. The reduction in size is a function of both, the angular offset between source and focus, and the distance of the QZ from the mirror. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.1-4: Beam tilt causes QZ size reduction.

For power class 1, 3dB beam widths are expected to be between 5 and 10 degrees as an extreme example. A beam tilt in the range of a few degrees could cause a PC1 UE to select a different beam for an off-focus source, relative to a source at the focus. + +UE size also limits how close to the mirror the QZ plane can be moved. The radiating face of PC1 device can measure in the 10s of cm in each dimension, which would force the QZ far away from the mirror. This restriction would, in turn, cause much greater reduction in QZ size for a given beam tilt angle, when using multiple sources. These problems would be less serious for PC3 devices. + +In a case a test antenna is located simply off the position from a focal point (normally at a position of a main test antenna) in the IFF test system, a centre of a beam from the offset feed antenna would shift depending on a distance of focal length ( $f$ ), a distance between the reflector and a centre of a quiet zone ( $r$ ), and a distance of the antenna offset ( $\delta$ ).

And there is a way to mitigate the impact of the offset antenna to the actual QoQZ. + +One of major factors to decide QoQZ is the electric field intensity in the quiet zone. Figure 5.3.2.2.1-8 depicts a 2D image of the electric field intensity (amplitude taper) in the quiet zone when the offset antenna is used. As shown in the figure, due to the shift of beam centre from the main antenna, distribution of the field intensity becomes asymmetric in the quiet zone and thus it causes the increase of the QoQZ MU value. However it is possible to shift the beam peak position by tilting the offset antenna and make the distribution of the field intensity close to symmetric in the quiet zone like the one from the main antenna, allowing us to mitigate the impact of beam centre shift to the QoQZ value. Figure 5.3.2.2.1-9 depicts the image of the improvement with the offset antenna placement. At the same time, there might be diffraction and/or scattering effects created by the reflector's paraboloid edges and the size of the paraboloid that impact the QoQZ characteristics. Thus, there should be some limitations with antenna offset ranges and angles to tilt the offset antenna that depend on a relationship between reflector size, measurement antenna offset and range length. All these factors should be considered during the design of the test system. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.1-8: Top view diagram of an antenna system with an offset antenna.

The coordinate system (z, x) remains the same. + +**Figure 5.3.2.2.1-9: 2D image of the electric field intensity in the quiet zone from a tilted offset antenna** + +There is another way of recovering desired QZ illumination. In Figure 5.3.2.2.1-4, it is shown that beam tilt causes reduction in size of QZ that is common to all source locations. This mechanism is intuitive and can be pre-compensated during design of the test system. + +The matter of QZ quality however involves more complexity. As a first approximation, QZ quality can be quantified by the illumination distribution from a hypothetical constant density source illuminating the mirror. Here it becomes evident that angular offset of the antenna alone is not enough to determine illumination distribution. See figure 5.3.2.2.1-10. Locations 2, 3 and 4 all have approximately the same angular offset ( $< 0.5$ degree difference), but their QZ illumination can be made better or worse than that of the on-focus source by adjusting mirror to source distance. In the graphic example, the source location closest to the mirror has the least variation QZ illumination. + +It is therefore possible to recover desired QZ illumination by adjusting the source location distance from mirror in concert with angular offset. A discussion regarding whether the different QoQZ MU needs to be applied compared to the single carrier case can be left to RAN5. + +As shown later in the discussion of wavefront shapes however (see sub-clause 5.3.2.2.3), there are other constraints governing offset source to mirror distance. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.1-10: Two plots showing mirror and source locations and their illumination distribution at the QZ.

If we compare Rx beam profiles of two different cases, one which has been measured by main antenna of the OTA test system, or the other with which the DL beam frequency is same but has been measured from the offset antenna, both beam profiles can be assumed identical as far as following conditions are satisfied. + +- Two measurement antennae (main and offset) are arranged along with the $\theta$ rotation of the positioner +- DL power of the offset antenna is calibrated and capable of transmitting same power level with the main measurement antenna. + +For the rotation angles of positioner, refer to Annex D.2.6 in TS 38.810 [3]. + +Figure 5.3.2.2.2-1 depicts the image of two beam profiles obtained by different antennae.

Arrows point from the text labels to the corresponding beam profiles. + +**Figure 5.3.2.2.2-1: 2D image of beam profile obtained by two antennae** + +If we compare the two measurements, a difference between them are just a point of sight from the UE, in other words a boresight of UE is slightly rotated depending on the arrangement of measured antennae. + +There is an angular offset between the two measurement antennae such as 2.5 to 7 degrees. Therefore to compare the two obtained beam profiles, rotation of either one of profiles in accordance with the actual antenna alignment is necessary. Also the adjustment of the start/ stop coordinates to measure is necessary with a case of the offset antenna. + +Now we consider beam profiles which are obtained by the test system that transmits two DL signals from single antenna (system A), and the system which has one additional offset antenna to transmit two DL signals - one DL from the main antenna and the other from the offset antenna (system B). For inter-band 2 DL CA case for example with band n260 and n261, suppose only system B transmits n261 from the offset antenna, properties of each beam profile are summarized in Table 5.3.2.2.2-1. Note that 2 measurement antennae of system B are assumed to be arranged along with the $\theta$ rotation of the positioner again just as mentioned above. + +**Table 5.3.2.2.2-1: Beam profiles obtained by system A and system B in a case with IBM antennae in a UE** + +| | System A (2 DL from main antenna, 1 AoA) | System B (2 DL from slightly offset 2 AoA antennae) | +|----------------------|------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| +| Beam profile of n260 | Obtained by main antenna | Obtained by main antenna. Thus completely identical with system A. | +| Beam profile of n261 | Obtained by main antenna | Obtained by the offset antenna. The shape of profile should be same but rotated in accordance with the angular offset between two test antennae. | + +Taking all explanations above into consideration, system B requires a post processing of the obtained data in accordance with the slightly rotated coordinate system. But the obtained beam profiles can be assumed as identical with ones obtained by system A as far as the UE is supporting the IBM. i.e. There is a way to make IBM UEs to choose same relative beam direction and conduct spherical coverage tests properly like a single test antenna system. + +Choice of the beam by UEs with common beam management (CBM) is studied at the next sub-clause. + +##### 5.3.2.2.3 Propensity to trigger incorrect beam in CBM UE + +The primary mechanism that can mislead CBM UEs is band-specific beam tilt in the test setup. As shown in sub-clause 5.3.2.2.1, beam tilt at the QZ is roughly 1:1 with source angular offset. In the spherical coverage space of a UE, beam tilt becomes a significant problem for beam management at beam boundaries. The impact to measured performance is directly related to probability of finding a beam boundary during 3D search. Beam tilt therefore penalizes UEs with dense beam packing (i.e more beam boundaries). + +Dense beam packing is often associated with UEs with good spherical coverage. It can be reasonably argued that the impact of beam tilt in this context is worse for UEs with better spherical coverage. This problem does not have a systematic effect across all UE designs and therefore difficult to overcome. + +Another important characteristic of a far field scenario is a nearly planar wavefront. Figures 5.3.2.2.3-1 shows the deviation from planar wavefront at the QZ when the source is moved off-focus. As before, in the figures below, locations 2,3 and 4 have similar angular offset, but differ in mirror to source distance. The figures show that there is an optimal distance from the mirror for any angular offset of the source, for the wavefront to appear planar at the QZ. + +![Figure 5.3.2.2.3-1: Wavefront orientation at QZ due to off-focus source.

From a beam management standpoint however, it is more important to ensure quality of the wavefront given that the deviation in illumination density seems minor. (Explanation: Position 3 is close to the optimal point, as witnessed by its nearly flat wavefront in figures 5.3.2.2.3-1. In figure 5.3.2.2.3-1, illumination density curves of location 3 and location 1, the focus or 'ideal location', track closely) + +The figures 5.3.2.2.3-1 also reasonably predict that the non-linear phase variation varies with frequency. Ergo, it is advantageous to reserve the ideal location (focus) for the antenna serving the highest frequencies and use offset locations for antennae serving lower frequencies. + +##### 5.3.2.2.4 Spherical coverage measurement simulation with common beam management (CBM) UE + +For inter-band CA requirements within 28 GHz range (L + L) or 39 GHz range (H + H) which has a possibility of transmissions by CBM, a simulation was made on the influence of the offset antenna measurement for inter-band CA case with CBM UE. From this simulation we tried to clarify a difference with the measurement of 2 DL by 1 AoA at a frequency range from 37 GHz and 43.5 GHz. + +###### Assumption of the UE antenna inter-element distance + +It is difficult for us to expect an actual inter-element distance (D) of an antenna in the current UE since it is implementation dependent. But as a starting point, during this simulation we put an assumption that an optimization of the inter-element distance is made at the centre frequency between the lower edge of band n258 (24.25 GHz) and higher edge of n259 (43.5 GHz), i.e. 33.875 GHz where $D/\lambda$ becomes 0.5. + +**Table 5.3.2.2.4-1: Optimized frequency and corresponding ratio (D/l) for simulation frequencies** + +| Optimized frequency ( $D/\lambda = 0.5$ ) | Frequency 1 (f1) for simulation | Frequency 2 (f2) for simulation | +|-------------------------------------------|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| +| 33.875 GHz (0.5) | 37.0 GHz (0.55) | 43.5 GHz (0.64) | + +###### Assumption of phase shifter in a UE + +For a beam forming method of the UE, following two methods were applied in the simulation. + +- i) A fixed phase shift to the antenna regardless with the carrier frequencies, which we assume this method is causing the beam squint. +- ii) A different phase shift which is proportional to the carrier frequencies so called true time delay (TTD). + +###### Simulation procedures for spherical coverage + +The simulation of the spherical coverage measurement was carried out by the following steps. + +Step 1) Decide a code book to obtain the maximum sensitivity at frequency 1 (37.0 GHz) with a measurement grid placed randomly against a DUT. + +Step 2) Keep the identified code book at step 1) and calculate gain profiles at frequency 2 (43.5 GHz). Then compare the following two cases. + +Case 1) Gain profile at frequency 2 measured by the main antenna + +- Only the difference of the ratio ( $D/\lambda$ ) can be monitored as the difference from the frequency 1. This result can be assumed as a baseline when comparing the influence of the offset antenna measurement. + +Case 2) Gain profile at frequency 2 measured by the offset antenna + +- In addition to the difference of the ratio ( $D/\lambda$ ), influence of the offset antenna is included in this result. (e.g. influence to the measurement grid due to the offset of the antenna.) + +###### Simulation parameter + +Simulation parameters are summarized in Table 5.3.2.2.4-2. + +**Table 5.3.2.2.4-2: Simulation parameter for spherical coverage gain profile** + +| Item | Parameter | +|-------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------| +| Grid | Constant Density 200 pt, 1000 random orientations against a DUT. | +| Antenna offset | $\theta = 4.0$ degrees | +| Array antenna | 1 x 4.

This means that the total measurement uncertainty by measuring from offset antenna will increase approximately 0.1 dB as the systematic uncertainty. + +For the standard deviation, only the result with TTD phase shifter showed the slight increase of measurement uncertainty (0.057 at 43.5 GHz.). However this increase of random uncertainty should be a negligible level compared to the other uncertainty contribution. + +Therefore for both mean error (systematic error) and standard deviation (random error) with offset antenna, these values are within the acceptable level because the simulation assumptions in this paper are chosen as one of the severest conditions from the viewpoint of the frequency point to optimize inter-element distance, test frequencies, basic frequency point of phase shift, etc. And since the optimization of the inter-element distance was assumed at 33.875 GHz, if this optimization is made at a higher frequency such as at the middle of 37 GHz and 43.5 GHz, the observed uncertainty should be decreased. + +Considering all the observations above, we assume that the FR2 OTA test system with the offset test antenna has a feasibility of measuring inter-band DL CA test cases for both CBM and IBM UEs under some limitations. + +For cases with UEs which supports wider frequencies (such as n262 in addition) or higher power such as PC1 need a further study. + +#### 5.3.2.3 Summary on applicability of offset antenna test system + +Taking into consideration of study results in sub-clause 5.3.2.1 and 5.3.2.2, an applicability of the offset antenna test system to the spherical coverage test with an inter-band CA UE is summarized as follows. + +IBM UE: + +On a test for UEs supporting inter-band CA with IBM, there is a way to make IBM UEs to choose same relative beam direction and conduct spherical coverage tests properly like a single test antenna system. It is recommended that a design of the test system is optimized to mitigate an impact of the offset antenna to the QoQZ measurement uncertainty, including the diffraction and/or scattering effects created by the reflector's paraboloid edges and the size of the paraboloid. + +CBM UE: + +On a test for UEs supporting inter-band CA with CBM, there might be a limitation with the feasibility by the offset antenna test system. But this relates also to the on-going WI discussion on the necessity of spherical coverage requirements with CBM UEs supporting a same band group e.g. 28 GHz + 28 GHz. + +#### 5.3.2.4 Points to design the FR2 OTA test system with offset test antennae + +To design FR2 OTA IFF test system for inter-band CA UE, following points were analyzed in the previous sub-clauses with regards to an impact of off-focus test antennae. + +- Distance (and angular offset) between the main antenna and the offset antenna +- Arrangement of the offset antenna +- Angle to fix (tilt) the offset antenna +- Distance between the offset antenna and a reflector +- Arrangement of antennae associated with their frequency coverage + +We pick out and iterate examples from the previous analyses which need to be considered during a design of the test system to minimize impacts from the offset antenna. We also consider further with their feasibility from some other aspects e.g. another affecting factor, actual system assembly procedures and test operations. + +##### Distance (and angular offset) between main antenna and offset antenna + +Based on the assumption that a range length in an IFF chamber is from 800 mm to 1200 mm, antenna offset from 50 mm to 100 mm were studied. These offsets are equivalent to approximately 2.5 to 7 degrees as an angular offset. And due to a shift of focal point from a centre of the quiet zone, approximately 0.15 dB degradation of the quality of quiet zone MU is estimated at the frequency range from 23.45 to 40.8 GHz. Note the estimation may vary depending on components and system designs in each vendor. + +From the previous studies, it is obvious that the impact is proportional to the distance between antennae. From this point it is preferable that each antenna is arranged as close as possible. However another effect of mutual coupling arises if the gap becomes too close like that of one wavelength (i.e. approximately 10 mm around 30 GHz.). Though we can assume that the effect can be included while evaluating the quality of quiet zone, at the same time when we think of an assembly of cables to each antenna, some clearances must be ensured and thus a gap around 40 to 50 mm between antennae is considered possible closest distance. + +##### **Arrangement of the offset antenna** + +On condition that a DUT is supporting IBM, we have a chance to carry out the inter-band CA test case with the offset antenna test system equivalent to the system only with the main antenna. To obtain identical beam profiles from both of main and offset antenna, following conditions need to be satisfied: + +- Two measurement antennae (main and offset) are arranged along with the $\theta$ rotation of the positioner +- DL power of the offset antenna is calibrated and capable of transmitting same power level with the main measurement antenna. + +Since there is an angular offset between the two measurement antennae such as 2.5 to 7 degrees, to compare the two obtained beam profiles, a post processing of obtained data is necessary with either one of profiles in accordance with the actual antenna alignment. Also the adjustment of the start/ stop coordinates to measure is necessary with the offset antenna. + +##### **Angle to fix (tilt) the offset antenna** + +It is recommended that also an angle to fix (tilt) the offset antenna is considered while designing the test system. It is possible to shift the electric field intensity by tilting the offset antenna (e.g. 0.5 to 0.7 degree) and make the distribution of the field intensity, in other words an amplitude taper, close to symmetric in the quiet zone like the one from the main antenna. However since the applicable tilt angles are closely related with a size of reflector and the range length, there should be some limitations and care must be taken to avoid diffraction and/or scattering effects created by the reflector's paraboloid edges. + +##### **Distance between the offset antenna and a reflector** + +It is possible to optimize the shape of wavefront and illumination at the centre of the quiet zone by adjusting a distance between the offset antenna and a reflector. However since the QZ illumination also depends on the frequency of beam, and considering the current frequency range of mmWave region, which is wide spread from 24 GHz to 52 GHz, it is not practical to change the distance for each antenna one by one. Also when we consider a design that the placement of the offset antenna is above the main antenna, there might be another factor to increase the measurement uncertainty since coordinates of the measurement grid changes. Thus as mentioned above, it is recommended that antennas are arranged along with the $\theta$ rotation of the positioner + +##### **Arrangement of antennae associated with their frequency coverage** + +It is predicted that the non-linear phase variation varies with frequency. Ergo, it is advantageous to reserve the ideal location (focus) for the antenna serving the highest frequencies and use offset locations for antennae serving lower frequencies. + +### **5.3.3 Inter-band testing ramifications** + +The primary dependency of inter-band test set ramifications is the frequency coverage of each antenna in an IFF system with multiple antennae. + +#### 5.3.3.1 Single antenna + +For bands that can be supported by a single antenna, the condition to evaluate is if the antenna is not at the focus of the mirror. On-focus single antenna IFF systems have already been studied and their MU quantified, and do not need to be considered again in this context. Non-ideal (off-focus) location causes the following problems: + +- A shifted QZ due to beam tilt. Note however that all bands have the same AoA at the UE. +- Beam tilt causes the AoA to no longer be parallel to the optical axis. This aspect must be properly considered during system calibration; for example, a directional calibration antenna placed at the QZ must be pointed accurately along the arrival direction for an accurate path loss estimate. + +Provided the problems above are accounted for, UEs with either CBM or IBM can tolerate an IFF system with an off-focus source. + +#### 5.3.3.2 Multiple antennae + +The assumption for inter-band testing in this context is that the bands are supported through multiple non-co-located test system antennae. For this set up, the considerations listed in the single antenna case get further complicated. + +- A reduction in QZ size due to different beam tilt experienced by different bands. +- Beam tilt causes different AoA for different bands. There are two problems associated with this aspect: + - Calibration for each band will require adjustment of a directional calibration antenna so it is pointed along arrival direction of band being calibrated. + - This set up can be perceived as 'non-co-located' gNBs by some UEs. + +The calibration step complication, and the QZ size reduction may be surmountable, but the non-co-located gNB implication can cause significant problems for UEs with CBM limitation. + +A special note is warranted for ACS and IBB requirements – the standard requires that the interferer share the same AoA as the DL band being tested. Fortunately, ACS and IBB interferers are expected to be in the same band as the DL being tested, so it would be natural for the test equipment to use the same antenna for both. If such is not the case, additional MU would be introduced into the system, which is not preferred. + +## 5.4 Extreme temperature conditions + +### 5.4.1 ETC test system + +Permitted test methods (i.e. DFF, IFF, NFTF) defined in Clause 5, TR 38.810 [3] can support extreme temperature condition tests with the update of additional temperature control system.

The difference between these levels leads to the difference between baseband SNR and SNR at the reference point. According to the FR2-1 SNR calculation methodology, 6 dB $\Delta$ thermal is used that corresponds to 1 dB SNR difference. + +Table 7.2.3-2 below provides evaluations how $\Delta$ thermal impacts DL SNR.

The factors included in this uncertainty are the differences in path losses between the declare and the actual offsets and the difference in compensated probe pattern. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to CFFDNF&CFFNF methodologies with the black&white-box approach. + +Additional background: This MU element was analysed in Clause 5.1.4.9. + +##### B.1.1.2.2 Probe antenna pattern + +The probe pattern is assumed to be known so that the measurement in the near field can be corrected when the probe pattern needs to be compensated. There is no direct dependence between the UE pattern and the probe pattern in near field measurements. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to the CFFDNF&CFFNF methodologies. + +Additional background: This MU element is similar to the 'A3-14 Probe pattern knowledge' of the Near Field Test Range in TR 37.941 and should be considered 0 since the probe pattern can readily be measured. + +##### B.1.1.2.3 EIRP measurement error in NF + +The cause of this uncertainty contributor is due to the reduction of distance between the measurement antenna and the DUT from Far-Field to Near-Field. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to the CFFDNF, CFFNF, and CFFdeltaNF methodologies. This MU element, if a non-insignificant mean error was identified, shall also be listed under System Uncertainties. + +Additional background: This MU element was analysed in Clauses 5.1.4.4, 5.1.4.5, 5.1.4.6, 5.1.4.8. + +For the CFFdeltaNF methodology, there is an additional impact due to changes in antenna pattern caused by PA non-linearities, etc. which is FFS. + +Additional background: This effect was analysed in Clause 5.1.4.8. + +##### B.1.1.2.4 TRP measurement error in NF + +This contribution originates from calculating the Total Radiated Power based on EIRP measurements in the NF. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to the CFFDNF methodology. + +**Additional background:** This MU element was analysed in Clause 5.1.4.4. + +##### B.1.1.2.5 Near-field interaction between probe antenna and DUT antenna + +This uncertainty term is related to the coupling between the UE antenna and the measurement antenna in the near field at different distances. This uncertainty can be determined by multiple measurements of the DUT when at different distance from the probe. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to the CFFDNF&CFFNF methodologies. + +Additional background: This MU element is similar to the ‘A3-15 Multiple Reflections’ MU element of the Near Field Test Range in TR 37.941 and can be assumed to be 0 but needs to be evaluated for each system separately. + +##### B.1.1.2.6 Influence of power measurement uncertainty + +This contribution originates from relative power measurement uncertainties at different radii when applied to the asymptotic expansion transformation. This uncertainty is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. This MU element is applicable to the CFFNF methodology. + +**Additional background:** This MU element was analysed in Clause 5.1.4.7. + +##### B.1.1.2.7 Influence of noise + +This contributor describes an offset uncertainty factor caused by a noise floor especially in a case of low SNR. This contributor works as a bias to measured results only to a direction to increase values and thus this shall be included in the uncertainty budget table as a systematic uncertainty. The uncertainty value can be derived by the following equation for CFFDNF and CFFdeltaNF. + +For the CFFNF methodology, the asymptotic expansion approach requires EIRP measurements of two (black&white-box) or three different radii (black-box approach) and thus different SNR conditions for each EIRP measurement. The influence of noise MU therefore requires an AWGN analyses with those varying SNR conditions applied to the signals. + +The available SNR for the CFFDNF and CFFNF methodologies must take the reduction in free-space path losses due to measurements in the near field and the reduction of relaxations into account while making sure that the available SNR is above 6dB. + +Additional background: This MU element was analysed in Clause 5.1.4.8 + +#### B.1.1.3 Uncertainty assessment + +FFS + +### B.1.2 Polarization basis mismatch between the TE and DUT + +For TPMI-based test method for EIRP measurement, the fixed TPMI index is used to configure the UE to ensure 1 layer 2 port transmission. The test setup and test procedure keep unchanged, thus no additional MU is identified for this enhanced test method. + +### B.1.3 Inter-band (FR2+FR2) CA + +For IFF-based off-focus test system defined in Clause 5.3, the Quality of quiet zone (QoQZ) will be impacted by both the main antenna and of the offset antenna. The preliminary QoQZ difference is analysed to present the measurement uncertainty induced by the off-focus test system. + +The difference between the QoQZ of main antenna and of the offset antenna is summarized in Table B.1.3-1 and plotted in Figure B.1.3-1.
