Making 3GPP TS 34.121 Tests

This chapter demonstrates the step-by-step procedures for making many of the tests specified in the 3GPP TS 34.121 standard. The procedures for each test are based on one set of settings as specified for the test. However, the general setup procedures are the same for other sets of settings. To learn more about which tests are supported by the test set, see What 3GPP W-CDMA/HSPA Conformance Tests Are Supported? .
