Question: In conformance testing for User Equipment (UE), what is the expected behavior of a System Simulator when exposed to maximum power transmissions from UEs in different modes?
Option 1: The System Simulator should automatically adjust its sensitivity to accommodate the maximum power levels from both Power Class 1 (FDD mode) and Power Class 2 (TDD mode) UEs.
Option 2: The System Simulator is expected to sustain minor damage when a Power Class 1 UE (in FDD mode) or a Power Class 2 UE (in TDD mode) transmits at the maximum permitted power level.
Option 3: The System Simulator shall not be damaged by a Power Class 1 UE transmitting at maximum in FDD mode, nor by a Power Class 2 UE transmitting at maximum in TDD mode, as per defined power class standards.
Option 4: The System Simulator will enter a protective shutdown when it detects a UE (either Power Class 1 in FDD or Power Class 2 in TDD) preparing to transmit at the maximum allowed power level.
Explanation: This correct answer reflects the requirement that a System Simulator, used for conformance testing of User Equipment (UE), must be resilient enough not to suffer damage from UEs transmitting at their maximum permitted power levels, ensuring reliable and consistent test environments across different UE power classes and operational modes.
