# HARQ transmissions=1 (no retransmissions); HS-DSCH coding fixed based on CQI=16

1. Send 2000 blocks and record the received CQI
2. Create a CQI frequency distribution and calculate the median-CQI value
3. If 1800 or more CQI values are within the range
(Median-CQI – 2) ≤ Median-CQI ≤ (Median-CQI + 2)

Purpose: To verify that the BLER performance for the reported CQI median
falls within the expected range and has the correct sense.
# HARQ transmissions=1 (no retransmissions); HS-DSCH coding fixed
1. Configure HS-DSCH based on median-CQI and calculate BLER for 1000 blocks
2. If BLER<0.1 (<10%),
then configure HS-DSCH based on median-CQI+2 and calculate BLER for 1000 blocks.
If BLER>0.1 (>10%) then PASS, otherwise FAIL
3. If BLER>0.1 (>10%),
then configure HS-DSCH based on median-CQI-1 and calculate BLER for 1000 blocks.

Purpose: To verify the CQI reporting accuracy under fading environments

1. Configure HS-DSCH based on CQI=16 and record the received CQI for 2000 blocks
2. Calculate the median-CQI value
3. Configure HS-DSCH based on the median-CQI and continue to transmit blocks
4. Calculate BLER (based on ACK/NACK, discard DTX) for 1000 blocks (DTX blocks not
included) with corresponding reported CQI=median-CQI (Event R1)
5. Calculate BLER (based on ACK/NACK, discard DTX) for 1000 blocks (DTX blocks not
included) with corresponding reported CQI=median-CQI + 3 (Event R2)
6. BLER should be < 60% for step 4 (R1) and <15% for step 5 (R2).

Summary
Testing of HSDPA functionality and performance in UEs involves three
main areas: HS-DSCH decoding (including the multi-code capability
and the HARQ functionality), CQI reporting, and detection of HS-SCCH.
These areas are addressed by the HSDPA performance requirements
conformance tests in Release 5 of the 3GPP specifications.
Variations of these tests can be useful during early design verification
Even though a SS is required for conformance testing, alternative
solutions based on a signal generator are more flexible and can be
useful during early design verification
Agilent provides solutions to verify the HSDPA functionality and
performance in UEs during early design verification
