5.1 UE Radio Capability size estimation
For LTE, the primary overhead introduced by Rel-15 parameters is FeatureSetsEUTRA-r15. The theoretical overhead of FeatureSetsEUTRA-r15 can exceed 10 kbytes. In practical deployment, the size of featureSetsEUTRA-r15 is variable depending on the number of DL/UL feature sets per band and the number of DL/UL feature sets ...

5.2 Limitations on different interfaces
The estimated theoretical maximum size of UE radio capabilities is extremely large. The estimated practical size of UE radio capabilities can be reduced, and the estimated size of "several tens of kilo-octets" appears to be valid. For RAN interfaces, the size limitation of PDCP PDU is 9000 bytes for NR and 8188 bytes L...

5.3 Analysis
It is hard for the size of UE radio capabilities to respect the limitation of Uu interface both for NR and LTE, and it can even exceed the limitation of GTP based interfaces. The issue of exceeding the size limitation exists mainly for: 1) UE radio capabilities reporting via Uu interface in NR scenario and LTE scenario...

This section describes the use of a UE capability identity, i.e. a short value that can be used as a representation of all or part of the UE capability.

6.1.1.2.1 Approach 1: Transfer via RRC signalling
The transfer of UE capability in RRC signalling is shown in Figure 6.1.1.2.1-1. The UE sends a UE capability ID in an RRC message, which could be either the RRCSetupComplete message or the UECapabilityInformation message. The subsequent handling of the UE capability ID is discussed in subclause 6.1.1.3. In this alter...

6.1.1.3.1 Summary of approaches
After the UE capability ID is transferred from the UE to either the NG-RAN or the CN, an entity in the network is responsible for mapping the ID to the UE capability set. If the ID is first provided to the NG-RAN (e.g. by RRC signalling as described in subclause 6.1.1.2.1), there are three alternatives: The mapping of ...

6.1.1.3.2 Approach 1: Mapping stored at NG-RAN only

On HASH-based ID's as described in solution #3 in 23.743[3], RAN2 has identified that, to create a hash-Capability ID the UE needs to do this assuming some specific capability information.

On 'delta signalling' as described in solution #9 in 23.743[3], RAN2 understands that all the impacts of 'delta signalling' (i.e. some additional capability information alongside the capability ID) would be within the RAN2 specifications and therefore it should be RAN2 decision to conclude on support of this feature.

A signalling diagram to transfer capabilities in segments is shown in Figure 6.2.1.2-1. In the first step, the eNB/gNB requests capabilities.

In the segmentation of UE capabilities in the RRC level, for each segment, a type (e.g. notLastSegment, lastSegment) as well as a segment number is added.

7.1 General
Conducted transmitter characteristics were defined for IAB-MT type 1-H and IAB-DU type 1-H. Requirements were agreed not to be defined for type 1-C, as type 1-H can also support only one TAB connector. Another reason is that, the IAB expects directional antennas, therefore, only AAS types were considered. The general p...

7.2 IAB output power
IAB output power limits are defined for each IAB-DU and IAB-MT class. For each class the rated power per carrier at TAB connector and sum of rated power per carrier over all TAB connectors need to be aligned with specified limits. For IAB-DU the limits are exactly the same as defined for NR BS type 1-H. For IAB-MT only...

7.3.1 Power control
The power control requirements are not defined to the wide area IAB-MT, as the tolerances for power control are large compared to the minimum requirement for dynamic range. For the local area IAB-MT, the absolute power tolerance was not defined as the dynamic range defined for the local area IAB-MT is not large enough ...

7.4 Transmit ON/OFF power
Transmit ON/OFF power requirements include two parts: transmitter off power and transmitter transient period. For IAB-DU, it's straightforward to reuse BS's both requirements because IAB-DU behaviour is the same as BS. For IAB-MT, reusing BS or UE requirements for both OFF power and transient period are the candidates....

7.5.1 IAB-DU transmitted signal quality
As the IAB-DU behavior is very similar with BS, all of the transmitted signal quality requirements can be imported from BS. Therefore, the frequency error, modulation quality and time alignment error requirements in clause 6.5.1, 6.5.2, 6.5.3 for BS type 1-H in TS 38.104 [2] apply to IAB-DU type 1-H.

7.5.2.1 Frequency error
As IAB-MT function is more like a UE, UE frequency error correction can be a reference. When BS transmits DL signal to UE, UE does frequency error correction algorithm to make sure UE follows BS with a relative low residual frequency error.The residual frequency error after compensation should be less than one percent ...

7.5.2.2 Error Vector Magnitude
EVM performance is the SNR performance of the transmitted signal. In order to have the same link performance, IAB-MT output signal quality should have the same performance as UE then guarantee the link quality. UE requirements are reused by IAB-MT EVM requirements. The difference is that BPSK EVM requirement is removed...

7.6 Unwanted emissions
Unwanted emissions cover the definitions and requirements for OOB boundary, occupied bandwidth, ACLR including also absolute ACLR, OBUE, and spurious emissions. For IAB-DU type 1-H all unwanted emissions requirements, except for the protection of the BS receiver of own or different BS, are the same as specified for NR ...
