The general procedure for performing the 141 test is as follows: Transmit signals with a signal generator. For any type of the 141 test, the NodeB only receives and displays the content on the LMT interface. Adjust the signals until the content meets the RF performance requirements. Record the testing result. Then you can verify the result by comparing it with the technical specifications in TS25.141 of the 3GPP protocols. The commonly-used UL 141 test covers the following items:

Prerequisite
l l
You are logged in to the NodeB LMT. The cell parameters related to this test are set. Refer to 14.2 Setting the Parameters of a Cell Under Test. The following device is available: a signal generator.
Context
In the frequency range from f=2.5 MHz to f_offsetmax from the carrier frequency, emissions should not exceed the maximum level for the appropriate NodeB maximum output power. These level requirements form a spectrum emission mask. Under a normal testing environment, the testing result should meet the requirements in TS25.141 of the 3GPP protocols.

Context
The ACLR is the ratio of the transmitted power within the specified carrier frequency band to the mean power leaking into the adjacent carrier band. Under a normal testing environment, the testing result should meet the requirements in TS25.141 of the 3GPP protocols.
NOTE
Matched filter uses the filter (root raised cosine and roll-off 0.22) with a noise power bandwidth equal to the chip rate. The test is conducted either in the true RMS level mode or in the true average level mode. Measure the ACLR at 5 MHz and 10 MHz offsets from both sides of the channel frequency.
Procedure
Step 1 Right-click the cell under test in the 141 Test pane. Then choose DL Test > RF Spectrum Emissions. The parameter is displayed on the right part of the window. Step 2 Select Adjacent Channel Leakage Power Ratio from the Param Value drop-down list. Step 3 Click Start. The Input dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 14-26. Figure 14-26 Input dialog box

Context
The code domain error is calculated by projecting the error vector onto the code domain. It is expressed in dB. The PCDE is defined as the maximum value of the code domain errors for all codes at a specific spreading factor. Under a normal testing environment, the PCDE must be smaller than 33 dB at spreading factor 256. For details, refer to TS25.141 in the 3GPP protocols.
Procedure
Step 1 Right-click the cell under test in the 141 Test pane. The shortcut menu is displayed. Choose DL Test > Peak Code Domain Error. Step 2 The Input dialog box is displayed, as shown in Figure 14-29.
