Feature EPS bearer management USIM
Description The feature is used to select different transmission bearers for different services to ensure the end-to-end QoS. The Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) is an identity module for a mobile subscriber. The UE provides a standard electrical interface for the USIM. The UE provides access to a commercial network and all services available in this network only after you insert a properly defined USIM.
Attribute Inherited
Remarks N/A
Inherited
The LTE UE also supports simulating a USIM by using software, to ensure UE authentication when the USIM is unavailable. This function is enabled under test conditions in a laboratory. The operator provides such parameters as K (a 128-bit subscriber key that is an input to the functions f1, f1*, f2, f3, f4, f5 and f5*) and OP (a 128-bit Operator Variant Algorithm Configuration Field that is a component of the functions f1, f1*, f2, f3, f4, f5 and f5*) in the authentication procedure. Configuration is not required for a USIM. For configuration of a soft USIM, see section9.16 "UE Initial Configuration for Soft USIM."
Emergency call
This feature enables you to dial an emergency service number to get first aid service in emergency. The Public Warning System (PWS) provides alarms for natural disasters or human error accidents that may cause loss of lives or properties. The Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) is a special PWS that provides alarms for natural disasters such as earthquake and tsunami, and post-disaster relief and reconstruction. The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) is a technology that enables a receiving or sending terminal to receive or send signals using multiple antennas. The UE supports measuring the physical layer of the Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) and Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) described in the 3GPP TS36.214 protocol.

Feature Ultra high speed mobility (up to 450 km/h)
Description The UE supports the operation of services at a mobile rate below 450 km/h.
Attribute Inherited
Remarks During a test, you must configure the UE to operate in the high-speed mobile mode on the OMT. For details, see section 9.2 "Setting the UE to Operate in Non-High-Speed/High-Speed Mobile Mode." N/A
Large cell access radius (up to 100 km)
To improve network coverage, the 3GPP TS36.211 protocol defines five preamble formats, namely, 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. The format 0 corresponds to a cell with a small radius, and 1, 2, 3 and 4 correspond to cells with a large radius. The maximum radius can reach 100 km. The RLC layer maps a Radio Bearer (RB) to a logical channel. The type of logical channels varies with the transported data. The MAC layer maps a logical channel into a transport channel. The physical layer maps a transport channel into a physical channel.
Inherited
Logical channel management

The UE supports all transport channels except the eMBMS. The UE supports all physical channels except PMCHs related to the eMBMS function. N/A
Integrity protection
The UE protects the integrity of signaling. The UE checks the integrity of the received or transmitted data to confirm whether the signaling is modified without authorization. The UE supports three protection algorithms: AES, SNOW3G and NULL. The Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ) adopts a simple network response system to ensure datagram retransmission if any fault occurs in data transmission on a wireless link. The RRC connection refers to a connection set up between the UE and eNodeB. The RRC connection management involves the setup, maintenance and release of RRC connections. Radio Bearer is used to manage Signaling Radio Bearers (SRBs) and Data Radio Bearers (DRBs). The Radio Bearer management involves the setup,

PDCP Header Compression (ROHC) Mobility management
The ROHC provides an efficient and flexible header compression mechanism. It improves the bandwidth utilization for VoIP services. Mobility management is used to manage the mobility of UE, involving the handover in E-UTRAN RRC_CONNECTED state and cell reselection in E-UTRAN RRC_IDLE state. The UE supports the selection of transmitting antenna configuration, to improve system performance. The special test is a UE behavior developed to meet some special requirements. This behavior does not comply with any protocol, involving cell lock, frequency lock, PLMN lock, and PUSCH power lock. The UE can function as a scanner to scan the signal intensity of all carriers, or scan the RSRP, RSRQ and SCH_RP of the cells on the UE-supported E-UTRA frequency bands. The UE serves as a drive test terminal to work with other drive test tools.

OAM link over GE port
In earlier versions, the UE maintenance port is independent of the service Ethernet port, so two PCs or a PC with two network adapters are required. The mode of OAM link over GE port enables UE operation and maintenance using the service Ethernet port. In addition, this feature further simplifies UE configurations such as IP address, ARP, DNS, routes. A subscriber does not need to care about the preceding parameter settings when using a UE. With this feature, a subscriber can use the OMT to manually dial a number to initiate the access. With this feature, the UE can automatically connect to the network after the UE is powered on, and automatically reconnect to the networks after network disconnection, without the need of manual intervention. With this feature, a UE can serve as an independent transmission device for such scenarios as video surveillance. This feature enables local UE management by using the OMT.

Alarm management
You can checks an alarm generated by a UE using the alarm management function of the OMT, and performs operations according to alarm suggestions. Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR) uses cooperation between the UE and eNodeB to automatically add neighboring relationships if a neighboring cell is not configured or is configured wrongly. Remote test means that a remote maintenance terminal (OMT or Probe) connects to the UE using an air interface to support the operation and maintenance management. These functions are the same as those of a local host. During large-scale LTE commercial applications and tests, the installation of eNodeBs is outsourced. After installation, the customer service engineers must reenter the sites for the acceptance of 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. The Transmission Time Interval (TTI) trace meets the testability requirements of the LTE system and records system procedure parameters in detail. These parameters record the process data during system operation. You can find

7.1 Carrier Aggregation
7.1.1 Overview
Feature Guide
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 hardware capability restrictions, the testing UE supports the aggregation of only two carriers. Each carrier supports the maximum configuration of 2 x 2 MIMO, with the downlink peak rate of 300 Mbit/s and uplink peak rate of 75 Mbit/s.
The UE supports the aggregation of only two symmetrical 20 MHz component carriers within the same band, and the antenna mode of each component carrier is 2T2R in the downlink and 1T2R in the uplink. The testing UE supports the aggregation of only two component carriers with normal CP activated. With CA, the UE does not support DRX, semi-persistent scheduling, or transmission of aperiodic sounding and PUCCH+PUSCH. The antenna mode and protocol release information are set only after the UE is powered off. This feature complies with 3GPP R10 11Q2.

7.2 Special Test

7.2.1 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 handover 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.

7.3 Scanner
7.3.1 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.
7.3.2 Test Scenarios

Table 7-2 Test scenarios of scanner Function Cell Scan Description 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. 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 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 current cell when the UE is in the synchronization state. Frequency scan on a specified frequency band refers to the scanned frequency power in the specified frequency band range. For details, see section 7.3.4 "Frequency Scan."

7.4 Auto Site Test

7.4.1 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.

7.5 Remote Test

7.5.1 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.
7.5.2 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.

7.6 Multi Traffics

7.6.1 Overview
Multi traffics 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 multi traffics 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 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 as required. These parameters determine the allocation of bearer resources.

7.7 ETWS
7.7.1 Overview
The Public Warning System (PWS) provides alarms for natural disasters or human error accidents that may cause loss of lives or properties. The Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System (ETWS) is a special PWS that provides alarms for natural disasters such as earthquake and tsunami, and post-disaster relief and reconstruction. It is an emergency communication system. The ETWS has two basic requirements, namely, 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.
Draft(2011-08-15)

LTE UE User Guide
7 Feature Guide
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 7-84 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 occurs, the ETWS warning provider sends an alarm message to the network side and the network side immediately broadcasts ETWS messages to UEs. ETWS messages can be displayed in two modes, namely, instant display and interactive display. The display mode is contained in ETWS messages. For instant display, the UE displays the current ETWS message in a pop-up window. For interactive display, the UE stores messages in the inbox and you can view messages manually in the inbox. ETWS messages are transmitted in special encoding formats. Currently, the UE only supports UCS2 and GSM 7bit.

7.8 TTI Tracing

7.8.1 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.
7.8.2 Procedure
1. Collect TTI data. For details, see section 7.8.3 "Collecting TTI Data. " 2. Analyze TTI data. For details, see section 7.8.4 "Analyzing TTI Data."
7.8.3 Collecting TTI Data

9.19 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.

10.1 MIMO
Introduction

Appendix B Feature Operations
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
