HSUPA RB Test Mode Setup

Last updated: January 15, 2009

This section is only applicable to the lab application or feature-licensed test application.

• RB Test Mode E-RGCH Information State

  This setting determines whether the E-RGCH Information IE is signaled to the UE during HSPA RB Test Mode call setup. If this IE is signaled, the UE will listen for up/down/hold commands on the E-RGCH. If it is not signaled, then the UE will not listen to an E-RGCH (and thus will determine its serving grant solely based upon the E-AGCH).

  Note, this setting only affects whether the UE will listen to an E-RGCH. It does not affect whether an E-RGCH is transmitted by the test set. To transmit an E-RGCH from the test set, you must set HSPA Cell 1 Connected E-RGCH Level to on (it is off by default).

  GPIB command: CALL:HSUPa:SERVice:RBTest:ERGChannel:INFormation[:STATe]

  This setting can only be changed when the connection status is Idle.

• RB Test Mode E-DPDCH Max Channel Codes

  This setting is used to control the value for E-DPDCH Max Channelisation Codes that is signaled to the UE during the setup of an HSPA RB Test Mode call.

  GPIB command: CALL:HSUPa:SERVice:RBTest:EDPDchannel:CCODes:MAX

  This setting can only be changed when the connection status is Idle.

• E-DCH RLC SDU Size

  This setting controls the uplink RLC SDU size specified for the E-DCH transport channel in the Close UE Test Loop message sent during the setup of an HSPA RB Test Mode call.

  To achieve 2 Mbps in the uplink with the downlink configured to H-Set 1 QPSK (534 kbps), set E-DCH RLC SDU Size to at least 4 x 2936 bits = 11744 bits. Note that you must also set RB Test Mode E-DPDCH Max Channel Codes = 2SF2 , grant the UE a large enough serving grant to allow this data rate, and ensure that the UE's transmit power is low enough that the HSUPA channels do not get scaled down. See HSPA Radio Bearer Test Mode for more information.

  GPIB command: CALL:HSUPa:SERVice:RBTest:RLCSdu:SIZE

  This setting can only be changed when the connection status is Idle.
