Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. After the MS sends an uplink data block the SS repeatedly sends PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK containing any USF and any TFI which do not address the MS for 4.5s. Before T3180 times out the SS signals the USF assigned to the MS. The MS sends a data block. Then the SS repeatedly sends PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK containing any USF and any TFI which do not address the MS until receiving CHANNEL REQUEST from the MS for establishment of a new TBF.
Maximum Duration of Test

If the message addresses the mobile station, the mobile station shall act on the message. The mobile station shall not transmit an RLC data block in any uplink radio block allocated via the polling mechanism.
2. PACKET POLLING REQUEST is sent on the PCCCH or PACCH by the network to the mobile station to solicit a PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT message from the mobile station.
3. In downlink RLC/MAC control blocks, the TFI identifies the Temporary Block Flow (TBF) to which the RLC/MAC control message contained in the downlink RLC/MAC control block relates. If present, this field indicates the mobile station to which the control message is addressed, and all other mobile stations shall ignore the control message. If this field is present and the contents of the control message also contain a TFI addressing the mobile station, the mobile station shall ignore the TFI in the control message contents.

Test Procedure
The MS is triggered to initiate packet uplink transfer data in RLC acknowledged mode. The SS orders the MS to use two-phase access procedure, in PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT two timeslots are assigned. On the same TDMA frame the SS signals to the MS the assigned USFs addressing the MS on the two assigned PDTCHs. It is checked that the two RLC/MAC data blocks in the next radio block period are received on the respective PDTCH channels and that each data block contains the correct TFI without TLLI.
The SS acknowledges the received data and assigns the USFs addressing the MS. The check is repeated. The same procedure is going on until the MS completes the packet data transfer.

In 44.060 it is stated: “If dynamic or extended dynamic allocation is used, a mobile station in GPRS TBF mode shall be able to detect the USF that assigns the uplink to that mobile station. The network shall use GMSK modulation, i.e. either CS-1 to CS-4 or MCS-1 to MCS-4, in those blocks.”
In 45.003 it is stated: “For the coding schemes CS-2 to CS-4 and MCS-1 to MCS-4, the first three bits (USF-bits) of the data block are encoded such that the first twelve coded bits are representing the same bit pattern, irrespective of the coding scheme, depending only on the USF-bits. For these coding schemes, the USF-bits can therefore always be decoded from these twelve bits in the same way.”
According to these two requirements, a MS in GPRS TBF mode shall detect an assigned USF value on an assigned PDCH when the network sends the USF in a EGPRS RLC/MAC block coded with MCS-1 to MCS-4.

Test Procedure
The MS is triggered to initiate a packet uplink data transfer in RLC acknowledged mode on one PDCH. The SS orders the MS to have a two-phase access, in PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT message with the USF_GRANURALITY set to 1 block.
The SS sends on the assigned PDCH an EGPRS data block coded with MCS-1 containing the USF value assigned to the MS on the corresponding PDCH. The SS checks that the MS sends in response on the assigned PDCH the expected data block.
The test is repeated by the SS using EGPRS data blocks coded successively with MCS-2, MCS-3 and MCS-4 to assign the USF to the MS.
Then the data transfer is completed.

During uplink transfer, the network may initiate a downlink TBF by sending a PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message, or a PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE, to the mobile station on the PACCH. If a PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message is sent, then the message shall contain the DOWNLINK_TFI_ASSIGNMENT field. On receipt of an assignment message, and after the TBF starting time, if present, the mobile station shall switch to the assigned PDCHs. The operation of the downlink TBF follows the procedures in 3GPP TS 04.60, subclause 8.1.2 with the following additions:
1. If a timer or counter expiry causes the uplink TBF to be aborted in the mobile station, the mobile station shall also abort the downlink TBF and perform an abnormal release with random access.
2. If uplink and downlink TBFs are already established, then the network may send a PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message without DOWNLINK_TFI_ASSIGNMENT. The mobile station shall interpret this as a reassignment of the timeslot allocations of the concurrent uplink and downlink TBFs and the downlink TFI is not changed.

Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. After the MS sends an uplink data block the SS assigns a downlink TBF on the same timeslot as the uplink TBF. The SS sends a downlink data block with polling for acknowledgement and the assigned USF assigned to the MS for the MS, and indicates FBI=1 for the final data block. The MS sends an uplink data block and acknowledges the received downlink data block on the correct frame. The SS waits 2s for the MS releasing the downlink PDCH. The SS sends PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE assigning a new downlink PDCH. A downlink data block is sent, the assigned USF assigned to the MS and the MS is polled for acknowledgement. The MS sends an uplink data block and acknowledges the last received downlink data block on the correct frame.
The SS sends PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE without DOWNLINK_TFI_ASSIGNMENT replacing the existing uplink and downlink PDCH with another pair of concurrent PDCH. A downlink data block is sent on the replaced PDCH and the MS is polled for acknowledgement. The MS shall not react upon it. Another downlink data block is sent on the assigned PDCH, the assigned USF assigned to the MS and the MS is polled for acknowledgement. The MS sends an uplink data block and acknowledges the received downlink data block on the correct frame.
The SS sends downlink data blocks with USF not addressing the MS until receives CHANNEL REQUEST.

42.3.2.1.2.2 Test purposes
|
To verify that the GPRS multislot MS supports as many uplink and downlink TBFs per TDMA frame as indicated. Especially, it is verified that the Type 1 MS in a GPRS multislot class declared has the capability of supporting:
1. Ttb, the minimum number of slots allowed between the end of the previous transmit or receive TS and the next transmit TS when measurement is to be performed for type 1 MS;
2. Tra, the minimum number of slots allowed between the previous transmit or receive TS and the next receive TS when measurement is to be performed for type 1 MS;
3. the maximum number of Rx and Tx supported;
4. the sum of slots supported.
It is also verified that the MS of a GPRS multislot class transmits PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT when polled, and omits the transmission of the highest numbered PDCH(s) if the transmission would result in more than the maximum Tx timeslots per TDMA frame allowed by the multislot class.

Initial Conditions
System Simulator:
1 cell, default setting.
Mobile Station:
The MS is GPRS attached with a P-TMSI allocated and the test PDP context3 activated.

Test Procedure
The following GPRS multislot configurations are tested in the test case:
- Class 2 and 3 support two downlink timeslots and one uplink timeslot, Ttb=2, Tra=3;
- Class 4 and 6 support three downlink timeslots and one uplink timeslot, Ttb=1, Tra=3;
- Class 5 and 9 supports two downlink timeslots and two uplink timeslots, Ttb=1, Tra=3;
- Class 8 and 10 support four downlink timeslots and one uplink timeslot, Ttb=1, Tra=2;
- Class 19 and 24 support five downlink timeslots and one uplink timeslot, Ttb=1, Tra=2.
In the multislot configurations all assigned channels are frequency hopped except for the class 19 and 24 test where non-hopping channels are assigned for PDCHs. The class 3, 6, 9 an d 10 are tested in a reduced uplink configuration.
According to the multislot configurations an uplink TBF with one or two timeslots assigned is established and in progress. The SS establishes a concurrent downlink TBF with multiple timeslots assigned.
On the 1st radio block the SS sends downlink data in the maximum capability allowed under the configuration, signals to the MS the assigned USFs addressing the MS and polls the MS. On the 2nd radio block the MS sends RLC data in response of the addressing the MS USFs. On the 6th radio block the SS sends downlink data in the maximum capability allowed under the configuration and signals to the MS the assigned USFs addressing the MS. On the 7th radio block the MS responses PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK and sends RLC data in response of one of the USFs addressing the MS if the configuration is allowed.
The basic test procedure is repeated until CV=1. The SS sends the last RLC data block with FBI=1 and polls the MS for acknowledgement. The SS sends PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK setting FINAL_ACK_INDICATION=1. The MS sends two separate PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT messages to release the uplink and downlink TBFs.
Maximum Duration of Test
5 minutes.

Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. The SS sends PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE for establishment a downlink TBF. A failure occurs at the mobile station side before the new downlink TBF has been successfully established. The MS starts a random access for uplink establishment. The SS assigns a new uplink PDCH to the MS. The SS signals the USF of the preceding uplink TBF addressing the MS on the preceding PDCH which shall have been released by the MS. It is checked that no RLC data block is received on the next three radio blocks. The SS signals the assigned USF assigned to the MS on the uplink PDCH assigned. The MS sends a RLC data block.
The test procedure is repeated 4 times. The message contents of PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE are varied as defined below.
1st execution, improper PDCH: hopping frequencies not all in one band.
2nd execution, violating the GPRS multislot capabilities.
3rd execution, no DOWNLINK_TFI_ASSIGNMENT.
4th execution, CONTROL_ACK = '1' (shall be set to '0' as the SS has not yet sent the final downlink RLC data block).
Maximum Duration of Test
10 minutes.
Expected Sequence
The sequence is repeated 4 times. The 2nd execution is not applicable for the MS GPRS multislot class 18 and 29.

If the mobile station has not started the countdown procedure and the new LLC PDU has the same RLC mode as the current uplink TBF and either a higher radio priority or the same radio priority but a higher peak throughput class, the mobile station shall immediately request a resource reallocation for uplink according to the new Radio Priority and peak throughput class of the new LLC PDU by sending a PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message on the PACCH and starting timer T3168.
2. Then the mobile station shall complete the transmission of the current LLC PDU.
3. After the transmission of the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message with the reason for changing the priority or peak throughput class of an assigned uplink TBF the mobile station shall continue to use the currently assigned uplink TBF assuming that the requested priority or peak throughput class is already assigned to that TBF.

Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. The MS is triggered to transfer data with a higher throughput in the same RLC mode and the same radio priority.
The MS sends PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST. The current TBF is maintained and SS assigns the USFs allowing the MS transmit more data blocks. It is verified that the MS completes the transmission of the current LLC PDU and then starts transmitting a new LLC PDU with the higher throughput. A new PDCH is assigned to MS to complete the RLC data block transferring.
The test procedure is executed twice. In the 2nd execution, after the MS requests a resource reallocation for transferring the data block with a higher throughput a new PDCH is assigned. It is verified that the MS switches on the new PDCH, completes the transmission of the current LLC PDU and then starts transmitting a new LLC PDU with the higher throughput.
Maximum Duration of Test
5 minutes.
Expected Sequence
The test sequence is executed twice for k = 1 and 2.
When k=1 testing that the MS continues to use the currently assigned uplink TBF, while k=2 testing that the MS to use newly assigned the resource to complete transmission of the current PDU before starting transmission the PDU with a higher radio priority or a higher throughput.

1. The MS first complete the sending of the LLC PDU in transfer, including acknowledgement from the network if in RLC acknowledged mode.
2. After the sending of LLC PDUs at the higher Radio Priority or the same radio priority but higher peak throughput class stops, the MS performs the request of a resource reallocation for uplink for any remaining LLC PDU(s).

During an uplink packet transfer, upper layer may request to transfer another LLC PDU. If the new LLC PDU does not have the same RLC mode as the current uplink TBF but has a higher radio priority, the mobile station shall complete the transmission of the current LLC PDU using the countdown procedure including acknowledgement from the network, if in RLC acknowledged mode. The mobile station shall then release the TBF and establish a new uplink TBF for transmission of the new LLC PDU. When the sending of LLC PDUs with a higher radio priority is completed using the countdown procedure, including acknowledgement from the network if in RLC acknowledged mode, the mobile station shall try to establish an uplink TBF for the transmission of any remaining LLC PDU(s).

Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. The MS is triggered to transfer 220 octets user data with a higher throughput or a higher radio priority, but in a different RLC mode.
SS assigns the USFs allowing the MS transmit more data blocks until the MS complete the countdown procedure. It is verified that the MS has transmitted only one LLC PDU.
Random accesses are received from the MS for channel request. SS assigns a PDCH to it. SS assigns USFs addressing to the MS allowing more data blocks are transmitted by the MS until the countdown value CV=0.
The MS requests more resources through random accesses of channel requests for the remaining LLC PDU in the initial test PDP context. SS starts a two-phase dynamic allocation. It is checked that the values of PEAK_THROUGHPUT_CLASS, RADIO_PRIORITY and RLC_MODE requested by the MS in the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST are in consistence with the initial test PDP context2.
Maximum Duration of Test
5 minutes.

1. On receipt of a PACKET ACCESS REJECT message, the mobile station shall stop timer T3168 if running and indicate a packet access failure to upper layers. If no downlink TBF exists, the mobile station shall return to packet idle mode.
2. If the PACKET ACCESS REJECT message contains a WAIT_INDICATION field in a Reject structure addressed to the mobile station, the mobile station shall start timer T3172 and if the mobile station has additional RLC data blocks to transmit, it shall initiate a new TBF establishment procedure on the RACH or PRACH, but the mobile station is not allowed to make a new attempt for packet access in the same cell until timer T3172 expires, it may, however, attempt packet access in an other cell after successful cell reselection. A mobile station in GPRS MS class A or B mode of operation may attempt to enter the dedicated mode in the same cell before timer T3172 has expired. During the time T3172 is running, the mobile station shall ignore all received PACKET PAGING REQUEST messages except paging request to trigger RR connection establishment.

Test Procedure
An uplink TBF is established and in progress. The MS is triggered to transfer data with a higher radio priority in the same RLC mode.
The MS sends PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST. SS sends PACKET ACCESS REJECT without containing WAIT_INDICATION. The MS may attempt a new random access because of the user data from the upper layer.
The test procedure is repeated once. The difference between the two executions is that in the 2nd execution, PACKET ACCESS REJECT contains WAIT_INDICATION. The MS may start the random access after T3172 expires.
Maximum Duration of Test
5 minutes.
Expected Sequence
The test sequence is executed twice for k = 1 … 2.

The cell change order procedure is started by sending a PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message to the mobile station on the PCCCH or PACCH. Upon receipt of the PACKET CELL CHANGE ORDER message the mobile station shall start timer T3174.
When a cell reselection is made controlled by the network, the mobile station shall act upon the IMMEDIATE_REL value which has been received in the Packet Cell Change Order: if required, the mobile station shall abort any TBF in progress by immediately ceasing to decode the downlink, ceasing to transmit on the uplink, stopping all RLC/MAC timers except for timers related to measurement reporting. The mobile station shall then switch to the identified specified new cell and shall obey the relevant RLC/MAC procedures on this new cell.
