9.1 Carrier Aggregation

9.1.1 Overview
Carrier aggregation (CA) combines several frequency resources to increase the system
available bandwidth (with the maximum of 100 MHz bandwidth) and system throughput and
improve the frequency resource usage, bringing better user experience.
After the testing reports the support for carrier aggregation, the eNodeB decides whether to
enable the UE to implement carrier aggregation as required. If carrier aggregation is required
for the UE, the eNodeB configures the Scell (secondary cell) through the RRC
reconfiguration message. Then, the eNodeB decides whether to activate the SCell through the
MCE based on the scheduling algorithm.
After the SCell is activated, the eNodeB transmits uplink and downlink services on the SCell.
The eNodeB can also deactivate the SCell through the MCE as required. After the SCell is
deactivated, the eNodeB cannot transmit services on the SCell.
Due to the limitation of the UE's hardware capabilities, the UE only supports the aggregation
of two carriers, with each carrier supporting 2x2 MIMO at most. When the UE is working in
FDD mode, the downlink rate can reach up to 300 Mbit/s and the uplink rate can reach up to
75 Mbit/s. In addition, TDD CA and CA of carriers with TDD subframe ratios 1 and 2.
Draft A(2013-10-28)
The UE supports the Inter-Band and Intra-Band aggregation of two carriers. The antenna
transmission modes of each carrier are 2Tx2Rx (downlink) and 1Tx2Rx (uplink).
The UE supports the aggregation of carriers with different bandwidth.
The UE supports cross carrier scheduling.
When working in TDD mode, the UE supports the aggregation of two carriers with subframe
ratios 1 and 2.
The testing UE supports the aggregation of only two component carriers with normal CP
activated.

Ltd

9.2 Special Test

9.2.1 Overview
Special test refers to the implementation of some behaviors not complied with protocols on
the UE based on some special purposes. For example, to test the performance of a UE when it
camps at the edge of a cell, you must prohibit it to hand over or reselect to another cell even if
the UE camps at the cell edge. To achieve this goal, you can use the lock cell function in the
special test feature. Similarly, the special test feature provides the Lock EARFCN, Lock
PLMN, and Lock PUSCH Power functions. In addition, to camp in a barred cell, you can
use the CBA Invert function.

9.3 Scanner
9.3.1 Overview
Scanner indicates scanner functions provided by the UE, including cell scan and frequency
scan. Cell scan indicates that the UE scans cell information on a specified frequency band or
frequencies. The UE reports the scanned cell information such as RSRP and RSRQ to the
Probe for subscriber viewing and further analysis. Frequency scan indicates that the UE
reports the scanned frequency power to the Probe.
9.3.2 Test Scenarios

Table 1.1 Test scenarios of scanner
Function
Description
Remarks
Cell Scan
Cell scan applies to network planning and

optimization. To view the signal power of cells on
the current network without UE access, you can
use the cell scan feature. Cell scan falls into cell
scan on specified frequencies, cell scan on a
specified frequency band, and fast cell scan.
For details, see

section 7.3.3 "Cell
Scan."
Cell scan on specified frequencies supports setting

of up to three frequencies and cyclic scan. It
applies to that the UE moves around to view the
cell signal power on the current network when you
execute drive test.
Cell scan on a specified frequency band supports
setting of the start and end frequencies of a
frequency band to be scanned. The UE performs
traversal scan of frequencies in the preset range to
find all cells in the range. In this case, the UE
scans frequencies only once.
The cell power obtained through fast cell scan
indicates the power value directly measured by the
physical layer before filtering. The measurement
result is not directly displayed on the Probe
window. You can export the result in CSV format
and open it by Microsoft Office Excel to view the
data.
Frequency
Scan
Draft A(2013-10-28)
Frequency scan falls into frequency scan on the

serving cell and frequency scan on a specified
frequency band. Frequency scan on the serving
cell refers to the scanned frequency power of the

9.4 Auto Site Test

9.4.1 Overview
During large-scale LTE commercial applications, the installation of eNodeBs is outsourced to
hardware engineers to decrease the deployment cost. Currently, commercial LTE UEs are not
mature. Hardware engineers cannot perform site tests in time after installing hardware
devices. Therefore, the customer service engineers must reenter the sites for the acceptance of
the eNodeBs, which increases related costs and decreases the deployment efficiency. To
resolve this problem, the auto site test feature is developed on the UE.
The UE supports auto site test, that is, the UE automatically completes the ping and FTP tests
after hardware installation, to check whether an eNodeB is normal. You can perform an auto
site test by using the previously configured UE and observe the test result through status
indicators of the UE.

9.5 Remote Test

9.5.1 Overview
The labor cost is very high to manually control multiple UEs for test when they are distributed
in difference places. Controlling multiple UEs distributed in different places on the core
network in a unified manner can greatly save the labor cost and improve the test efficiency. To
meet this test requirement, the UE provides a remote test mode for controlling UEs remotely.
Remote test indicates that the OMT or Probe on the remote host connects to the UE by using
the air interface to support the operation and maintenance management. These functions are
the same as those of a local host. The current version supports the use of a remote OMT/Probe
to connect to the UE and control the UE in providing the ping service and FTP downloading
service. You can monitor and observe the UE by using the remote Probe.
9.5.2 Remote Test

Prerequisites
A control PC is installed and it is connected to the gateway through a route.
You are recommended to bind the IMSI with the UE IP on the HSS. In this case, the UE
IP subsequently entered when connecting the remote UE by using the OMT does not
change due to re-access. If you cannot bind the IMSI with the UE IP, query the mapping
relationship between the UE IP and IMSI on the HSS.

9.6 Multitasking
9.6.1 Overview
Multitasking indicates that the UE performs multiple services at the same time, including the
Ping service, UDP service, VoIP service, FTP service, and VOD service.
The demonstration of Multitasking requires the following software: Ser-U (installed on the
FTP server for FTP service demonstration), WS_FTP (for FTP service demonstration), Helix
media server (installed on the VOD server for VOD service demonstration), Microsoft
Portrait (for VoIP service demonstration), Windows Media Player, and NetMeter (for
throughput observation).
When the services performed by the UE require a special transfer service, you can set up a
dedicated bearer to guarantee the service quality. Setup of a dedicated bearer can be initiated
by the network only, but the UE can trigger the network to set up a dedicated bearer.
After receiving the uplink data, the UE needs to select a suitable bearer for transfer of data
services to guarantee the transfer quality. In the Prerequisites that a dedicated bearer is set up,
the UE matches the dedicated bearer according to data services (that is, TFT match). The TFT
Draft A(2013-10-28)

match items include the IP address, port number, and protocol number. When multiple
dedicated bearers can all be matched successfully, the UE selects the bearer that has the
highest priority to transfer data. If no dedicated bearer meets the data transfer requirement,
you can only select the default bearer for data transfer.

QCI is one of the most important QoS parameters for the EPS bearer. It is a quantity class, indicating the
QoS features that the EPS must provide for the SDF. Each SDF is associated with only one QCI. If
multiple SDFs corresponding to the same IP-CAN session have the same QCI and ARP, they can be
handled as an independent service set, which is called SDF set. Table 7-6 lists the standard QCI
attributes defined by the EPS system. All the QCI attributes can be preset by the carrier on the eNodeB

9.7 PWS
9.7.1 Overview
The PWS(Public Warning System) provides alarms for natural disasters or human error
accidents that may cause loss of lives or properties. PWS messages can be in instant display
or interactive display mode. The display mode is specified in the PWS message. If PWS
messages are in instant display mode, the UE displays the messages in a popup window. If
PWS messages are in interactive display mode, the UE saves the messages in the inbox folder.
The user can manually check messages in the inbox. PWS messages are transmitted using
special coding schemes. The UE supports UCS-2 and GSM 7-bit.
The UE support two warning systems, the ETWS and CMAS.
9.7.2 ETWS
The ETWS(Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System) is a special PWS that provides
alerts for natural disasters, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, and post-disaster relief and
reconstruction. It is an emergency communication system.
Draft A(2013-10-28)

Ltd
105
LTE UE
User Guide
The ETWS has two basic requirements, delay and security. The propagation velocity of
the earthquake or tsunami is very high, and the warning message must be sent to users at the
first time. Therefore, the delay is highly required. Such a message may cause a large-scale
panic. Therefore, the security is also highly required. The message source is generally
controlled by the government.
The ETWS is proposed by a Japanese telecom operator NTT DOCOMO at a meeting of
the Security Association. In addition, network support for the ETWS is written in Japanese
law and serves as a requirement for admission to the Japanese market. The ETWS is
implemented in 3GPP Rel8, and carries ETWS messages through SIB 10 and SIB 11 of
system information. The ETWS network architecture is shown in Figure 7-84.
Figure a.1 ETWS network architecture
ETWS messages are sent to UEs through SIB 10 and SIB 11. Different from common
system information, ETWS messages fall into Primary Notification (PN) and Secondary
Notification (SN). The PN carries the most important and urgent information and must be sent
to users at the first time, for example, warning message on an earthquake or a tsunami sent
through SIB 10. The SN carries the secondary urgent information, for example, help
information and map sent through SIB 11.
When a natural disaster takes place, the ETWS warning provider sends alerts to the
network. The network then broadcasts ETWS messages to UEs.
9.7.3 CMAS
The CMAS is another special PWS that can simultaneously broadcast multiple alerts.
It enables users of all communication technologies to timely and accurately receive alerts
upon disasters or other emergencies so that they can protect themselves from injuries and
property loss.
Draft A(2013-10-28)

Ltd
106

CMAS is released in 3GPP Relay 9. CMAS messages are sent using the system
messages' SIB12. The CMAS network architecture is shown in Figure 7-85.

9.8 TTI Tracing

9.8.1 Overview
Transmission Time Interval (TTI) tracing addresses testability requirements for quick problem
identification and diagnosis by the UE, in units of millisecond. It details the key running data
of the UE, based on which development engineers quickly identify and diagnose UE-related
problems.
TTI tracing is classified into L1 TTI tracing and L2 TTI tracing, which can be performed
independently or simultaneously. Users set tracing tasks as required.
L2 TTI tracing includes PDCCH_DCI0, PDCCH_DCIX, PUCCH, PUSCH, PRACH, SRS,
RAR, PDSCH, PHICH_Sequence, UL_HARQ, PBCH, DRX, GAP, RLC_UL, RLC_DL,
PDCP_UL, and PDCP_DL, one or several of which can be selected for tracing.

The DHCP switch is valid only in the Auto Dial-up mode (Equal to Auto Connect mode). If the
DHCP switch is enabled, the UE will respond to the DHCP request from the TE, and allocates the IP
address (allocated by the EPC) to the service network adapter of the TE. You do not need to
configure the IP address of the service network adapter of the TE manually. If the DHCP switch is
disabled, the UE does not respond to the DHCP request from the TE, you must check the IP address
(allocated by the EPC) in the NAS message, and manually configure the IP address of the service
network adapter of the TE.
If the ARP switch is enabled, you can obtain the route between the UE and TE automatically. It is
not needed to configure the TE MAC manually. If the ARP is disabled, you must configure the TE
MAC manually.
TE Mac: Refers to the MAC address of service network adapter of the TE.
TE GateWay IP: Refers to the gateway IP address of the TE. This IP address belongs to the same
network segment as the IP address of the service Ethernet port of the service TE. The configuration
may vary in different application environment. Te GateWay IP Address Is valid only when the ARP
or DHCP function is enabled.

11.19 Selecting an LTE UE Mode

Context
For different scenarios, the UE provides different modes, namely, Manual Connect, Auto
Connect, Remote Test, and Auto Site Test. Before using the UE, select a mode to obtain
corresponding services. By default, Manual Connect is selected.
Manual Connect: In this mode, you can only initiate the access procedure by OMT or Probe.
Auto Connect: The UE initiates the access procedure automatically after it is powered on.
The UE automatically restarts when network disconnection. This mode is applicable to
unattended scenarios such as high moving. In such a scenario, the UE must access to the
network immediately to transport services after power-on. The mode is equal to Auto Dial-up
mode. And the Service Network Adapter must be set to obtain an IP Address Automatically.
Remote Test: This mode means that the OMT or Probe on the remote host can connect to the
UE by air interface to run on the UE. These functions are the same as local host. This mode is
applicable to scenarios where the remote control of the UE is required. The current version
supports the use of a remote OMT/Probe to connect to the UE and control the UE to do ping
test and FTP download test.
Auto Site Test: During large-scale LTE commercial applications, the installation of eNodeBs
is outsourced. After installation, the customer service engineers must reenter the sites for the
testing on the eNodeBs. This increases the costs. The UE supports auto site test, that is, the
UE automatically completes the ping and FTP tests after hardware installation, to check
whether an eNodeB is normal. In this way, the customer service engineers do not need to
reenter the site.

Appendix B Feature
Operations
12.1 MIMO
Introduction
The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is a technology to receive or send signals at the
receiving or transmitting terminal by using multiple antennas. By using the array gain,
diversity gain, spatial multiplexing gain, and interference suppression gain, the MIMO
improves system coverage and quality, and increases the peak rate. Multiple antennas enable
you to obtain the array gain by changing the direction of antennas. The advantages are as
follows:
The eNodeBs with the application of the MIMO technology have a wider coverage.
When the channel is in poor conditions, the diversity gain provides data backup by using
different antennas to send the same information, so that the data has stronger interference
resistance capability.
When the channel is in good conditions, the spatial multiplexing gain multiplies the data
transmission rate by using different antennas to send different types of data, so that the
peak rate of the system is greatly improved.
Antennas of the UE are located on two panels, namely, front panel and back panel. The front
panel contains two RRU0 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA1/TX) and a receive port
(RXB1). The back panel contains two RRU1 ports: a transmit/receive port (RXA2/TX) and a
receive port (RXB2). In the MIMO scenario, select a proper antenna configuration for the UE
based on network topology. Take the 2 x 2MIMO networks for example. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA1/TX and RXB1, select the RRU0 for the 1T2R mode. If the UE antenna
connects to the RXA2/TX and RXB2, select the RRU1 for the 1T2R mode.
Prerequisites

12.4 ZUC Algorithms

Introduction
ZUC is named after the Chinese mathematician Zu Chongzhi. This set of stream cipher
algorithms is designed by Chinese and include the Evolved Packet System (EPS) Encryption
Algorithm 3 (EEA3), and EPS Integrity Algorithm 3 (EIA3).
ZUC is a stream cipher. It takes a 128-bit initial key and a 128-bit initial vector (IV) as
input, and outputs a keystream of 32-bit words (where each 32-bit word is hence called a
keyword). This keystream can be used for encryption/decryption.
In September 2011, the ZUC algorithms are officially adopted by the 3GPP as
international encryption standards for LTE, in other words, they have become the fourth
generation of mobile communication encryption standards. The Institute of China Telecom
has explicitly regulated that ZUC algorithms are mandatory for LTE network equipment and
devices.

12.5 AC Barring
Introduction
The objective of AC Barring is to relieve the impact of eNodeB overload caused by a large
number of UEs' simultaneous access to the network. When an eNodeB is overloaded, the
eNodeB includes information related to AC Barring, such as access probability factor and
access barring duration in system information block 2 (SIB2) based on the access cause (such
as MO Signaling, MO Data, and Emergency) or service type (SSAC_MMTEL_Video,
SSAC_MMTEL_Voice, or CSFB). This ensures that a configurable number of UEs can
smoothly access the network. After a UE receives the access probability factor and access
barring duration, the UE compares the access probability factor with the random number
(RAND), which can be generated by the UE or configured. If the RAND is less than the
access probability factor, the UE can access the network. If the RAND is greater than or equal
Draft A(2013-10-28)

Ltd
179
LTE UE
User Guide
to the access probability factor, the UE cannot access the network for the access barring
duration.
The UE can only distinguish data from signaling but cannot identify the specific service type.
To implement AC Barring in compliance with 3GPP Release 9 and 10 Specifications,
configure the RRC connection setup cause (MO-Data, Voice, Video, or CSFB) for a UE. The
default RRC connection setup cause "MO-Data" applies if the cause is not specified for a UE.
The RRC connection setup cause determines the access control parameter group (acBarringForMO-Data, ssac-BarringForMMTEL-Voice-r9, ssac-BarringForMMTEL-Video-r9,
or ac-BarringForCSFB-r10), and the UE access priority determines whether a UE can access a
cell.
The RAND generated by a UE is uncontrollable. Therefore, a switch for configuring the
RAND is added and the RAND can be configured as required to facilitate testing AC barring
effect.
Prerequisites
The OMT is properly connected to the UE.
The E-UTRAN supports delivering access control parameters in compliance with 3GPP
Release 8, 9 and 10 Specifications.
Procedure
The following describes how to enable access control for voice services.
2. Configure parameters related to AC Barring for a UE as follows: Choose Debug Command >
Access > CFG AC BARRING PARA and double-click. Set RrcConnectReason to Voice
and RandomNumSwitch to OFF.
If RandomNumSwitch is set to OFF, the RAND generated by the UE is used for comparison
with the access probability factor sent by the eNodeB. If RandomNumSwitch is set to ON,
the configured value of RandomNumber is used for comparison with the access probability
factor sent by the eNodeB.
