  meeting.
• Most of the delegates were participating at both
  WG4 WG5 sessions and were requested to ask
  companies to send at least one dedicated to each
  group delegate.
• The GERAN WG4 meeting report could be found in
  GP-020474

4
General information (2/3)

• Workload
• 101 contributions were considered during
  the meeting
• 54 CRs were agreed
• The works have been started on the
• AMR NB
• DTM
• Rel-4
• - Delayed TBF

5
General information (3/4)

• The Participated Companies were requested to
  provide input on the developing Test Cases for
• Rel-5
• - Wideband AMR
• - RLC/MAC (Iu interface CS and PS domain)
• - Enhanced power control
• - AMR 8 PSK HR
• - Selection/Reselections (GERANgtUTRAN)
• - Handover (GERANgtUTRAN PS).

6
General observations (4/4)

• Main topics
• Radio/Layer 1
• GPRS
• EDGE
• Selection/Reselection, HO (2.5G, 3G)
• LCS

7
Main outcomes Layer 1(1/2)

• Seven documents were presented for new AMR NB
  Test cases, including co-channel rejection,
  reference sensitivities and BFI.
• The AMR related CRs has been presented, are for
  both AFR and AHR.
• The BFI test cases for both FR and HR were
  agreed.
• The rest of the tests are planed to be done
• during the next WG4 meeting.

8
Main outcomes Layer 1(2/2)

• There are number (26) of document were presented
  as a correction for the existing test cases
  related to selection/reselection.
• Document GP-020051 contained an Introduction to
  DTM
• Document GP-020052 contained an input on DTM Test
  Cases
• It is expected that the GERAN WG4 will receive
  the contributions related to the DTM tests cases
  developing at the next meeting.

9
Main outcomes GPRS (1)

• GERAN WG4 has received a number of CRs to section
  41, 42 and 43 of 51.010-1
• There are 17 documents were presented related to
  S41 of the 51.010, 24 for S42 and 1 for S43.
• Most of the documents are the corrections for the
  existing test cases.
• The number of the documents are correction of the
  Procedure and Test Requirements.

10
Main outcomes GPRS (2)

• The number of CRs are related on the need to
  align timing for the turning on the carriers at
  the appropriate time, that the reselection will
  be performed as expected by the test case.
• Some corrections were related to the correction
  of step references in Test Requirements.
• Number of the corrections are related on the need
  to align the test cases with the latest versions
  of the core specifications.

11
Main outcomes EDGE

• There are relatively small number of documents
  were received by the GERAN related to the EDGE
  test cases.
• Document GP-020100 contained a correction to
  section 51.1.1.3 - RR / Paging / on PCCCH for
  EGPRS service / extended paging with P-TMSI
  successful
• Document GP-020399 contained CR 51.010-1-422 on
  S52.1 EGPRS Tests for MAC procedures on PCCCH in
  Idle Mode
• Document GP-020102 contained CR 51.010-1-559 with
  a correction to sections 53.1.2.8, 53.1.2.10,
  53.1.2.12 and 53.1.2.13 on Acknowledged Mode/
  Downlink TBF

12
Main outcomes LCS (1)

• GERAN WG4 have received fourteen Contribution for
  LCS for this meeting.
• The GP-020211 as a Revised LCS Work Plan.
• Document GP-02125 contained a CR to 51.010-1 on
  E-OTD Timing Measurement Accuracy.
• EOTD-Capable MS Test Platforms were discussed and
  included into 3GPP TS 51.010 in Annex 6.

13
Main outcomes LCS (2)

• There are essentially three subjects i.e.
  sensitivity, interference and multipath which are
  the requirements from 05.05.
• It was decided that three corresponding test
  cases should be written.
• An example of how this should be done was
  provided in document GP-020389 (CR 616) which is
  a combination of GP-020126 and GP-020133

14
Main outcomes LCS (3)

• It was suggested that some of the parameters are
  very tight and accuracy may not be feasible.
• It was proposed to ask GERAN that more test
  equipment manufacturers attend WG4 to ensure that
  the proposed block-diagram being elaborated are
  possible.

15
Future meetings - 2001

• The next GERAN WG4 meeting will be collocated
  with TSG GERAN, April 2002.

16
Future meetings - 2002

• TSG GERAN meetings
• 9, 15-19/04
• 10, 24-28/06
• 11, 26-30/08
• 12, 18-22/11
