Test Procedure
The MS, whilst in dedicated mode, is triggered to initiate packet uplink transfer data in RLC unacknowledged mode and sends a DTM REQUEST message. On receipt of the DTM REQUEST message, requesting uplink resources, the SS assigns the MS PS resource. The SS accomplishes the resource assignment by passing a PACKET ASSIGNMENT message to the MS. On receipt of the PACKET ASSIGNMENT message, the MS starts to send RLC DATA BLOCKS to the SS on the assigned PDTCH.
The codec to be used in this test is chosen dependent on the capabilities of the MS.
MS supporting DTM/EGPRS shall complete testing for k=1and MSs indicating support of single slot DTM/EGPRS shall additionally complete testing for k=2.

While in dedicated mode, the establishment of an uplink packet resource may be initiated by the RR entity of the mobile station using the packet request procedure. The procedure is triggered by a request from upper layers to transfer an LLC PDU; see 3GPP TS 24.007.
On receipt of a DTM REQUEST message the network may allocate an uplink packet resource. The packet uplink resource is assigned to the mobile station in one of the DTM assignment messages:
- DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND or
- PACKET ASSIGNMENT.
The PACKET ASSIGNMENT message is only used when the packet resource is a PDCH and no reallocation of the RR connection is needed.
On receipt of:
- DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message or
- PACKET ASSIGNMENT message,
the mobile station shall stop T3148.
If the received DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND or PACKET ASSIGNMENT message includes uplink packet resources, the mobile station shall proceed with the packet access. If the received message includes downlink packet resources and no uplink packet resources, the mobile station shall abort the packet access procedure and proceed with the procedure specified in clause 3.4.22.3, and then attempt an establishment of uplink TBF, using the applicable procedure specified in 3GPP TS 04.60.
- when the network sends a PACKET ASSIGNMENT message, the packet request procedure is completed for the network when assignment message is sent and for the mobile station when it is received.
When the packet request procedure is completed, the mobile station has entered the dual transfer mode.
If the received PACKET ASSIGNMENT message includes downlink packet resources and no uplink packet resources, the mobile station shall abort the packet access procedure and proceed with the downlink TBF establishment, and then attempt an establishment of uplink TBF.

Test Procedure
The MS, whilst in dedicated mode, is triggered to initiate packet uplink data transfer and sends a DTM REQUEST message. On receipt of the DTM REQUEST message, requesting uplink resources, the SS reallocates the MS's CS resources and assigns PS resources to the MS. The SS accomplishes the resource assignment by passing a DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND message to the MS. Once the MS has received the assignment message, it moves to the new allocation, reconnects the CS resources, passes the ASSIGNMENT COMPLETE message to the SS on the main DCCH and starts to send RLC DATA BLOCKS to the SS on the assigned TBF.

This procedure is only applicable to a mobile station in dedicated mode and with no TBF allocated. If the mobile station already has an ongoing TBF, the establishment of the downlink packet resource is performed on the PACCH; see 3GPP TS 04.60.
The establishment of a downlink packet resource is initiated by the RR entity on the network side using the packet downlink assignment procedure in dedicated mode. The procedure is triggered by a request from upper layers to transfer an LLC PDU; see 3GPP TS 24.007. The request from upper layers specifies a QoS profile, an RLC mode, DRX parameters and an MS classmark associated with the packet transfer.
The network initiates the packet downlink assignment procedure in dedicated mode by sending a DTM assignment message (i.e. DTM ASSIGNMENT COMMAND or a PACKET ASSIGNMENT) in acknowledged mode on the main DCCH.
The completion of the packet downlink assignment procedure while in dedicated mode depends on the actual assignment message used by the network:
- when the network sends a PACKET ASSIGNMENT message, the packet downlink assignment procedure is completed for the network when assignment message is sent and for the mobile station when it is received.

The mobile station may request establishment of one or more uplink TBFs when there are one or more ongoing downlink TBFs by including a Channel Request Description or the Extended Channel Request Description information element in the (EGPRS) PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message. Initiation is triggered by a request from upper layers to transfer an upper layer PDU.
When multiple TBF procedures are not supported, the mobile station initiates the packet access procedure by sending the Channel Request Description information element in the (EGPRS) PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message on the PACCH and starting timer T3168.
On receipt of an (Extended) Channel Request Description information element in the (EGPRS)PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message, the network may assign radio resources to the mobile station on one or more PDCHs by transmitting an uplink assignment message (e.g. PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT, MULTIPLE TBF UPLINK ASSIGNMENT, PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE or MULTIPLE TBF TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message) on the PACCH, or may reject one or more of the requests by sending a PACKET ACCESS REJECT message on the PACCH. If the PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message is sent, then the message shall contain the UPLINK_TFI_ASSIGNMENT field.
On receipt of a PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT or PACKET TIMESLOT RECONFIGURE message the mobile station shall stop timer T3168 and switch to the assigned PDCHs.

Test Procedure
Whilst in an active call on timeslot N, the MS receives a PACKET ASSIGNMENT message on the main DCCH, instructing the MS to switch to a designated timeslot and receive data. The SS then starts to transmit to the newly allocated resources. Before the SS completes transmission of the 1000 octets of data, the MS is triggered to initiate an uplink packet transfer. The SS then sends another RLC Downlink Data block to the MS with the S/P bit set to 1. The MS responds by sending a EGPRS PACKET DOWNLINK ACK/NACK message to the SS including the Channel Request Description IE. The SS allocates uplink resources to the MS with the PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT message. The test procedure is complete when the SS successfully verifies both uplink and downlink transmission are working in parallel.
MS supporting DTM/EGPRS shall complete testing for k=1 and MSs indicating support of single slot DTM/EGPRS shall additionally complete testing for k=2.

Test Procedure
The MS, whilst in dedicated mode, is triggered to initiate packet uplink transfer of 1000 octets of data in RLC unacknowledged mode and sends a DTM REQUEST message. On receiving the DTM REQUEST message, requesting uplink resources, the SS assigns the MS an uplink TBF. The SS accomplishes the resource assignment by passing a PACKET ASSIGNMENT message to the MS. On receiving the PACKET ASSIGNMENT message, the MS starts to send RLC DATA BLOCKS to the SS on the assigned PDTCH. Once the MS has sent correctly approximately 500 octets, the SS transmits a PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message allocating the MS downlink packet resources. The test procedure is complete when the SS successfully verifies both uplink and downlink transmission are working in parallel.
MS supporting DTM/EGPRS shall complete testing for k=1 and MSs indicating support of single slot DTM/EGPRS shall additionally complete testing for k=2.

The mobile station shall provide the network with its radio access capabilities for the frequency bands it supports, in the same priority order as the one specified by the network, by sending a PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message, and an ADDITIONAL MS RADIO ACCESS CAPABILITIES if all the requested information do not fit in the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST.
The mobile station shall include the TLLI in these two messages until contention resolution. After that, the mobile station may use the uplink TFI or the TLLI whenever these messages are repeated.
The network may request a retransmission of the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST and the ADDITIONAL MS RADIO ACCESS CAPABILITIES messages. A request for retransmission of one or both of these messages shall be indicated in the PACKET UPLINK ACK/NACK message. The mobile station has to indicate within the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST if the message is a retransmitted one.
If the mobile station has been allocated two radio blocks and all the requested information fit in the PACKET RESOURCE REQUEST message, no ADDITIONAL MS RADIO ACCESS CAPABILITIES message shall be sent. Instead, some uplink control block (e.g. packet measurement report, packet uplink dummy control block) may be sent by the mobile station.
The network may indicate in the next PACKET UPLINK ASSIGNMENT message a request for retransmission of the ADDITIONAL MS RADIO ACCESS CAPABILITIES message.

In case valid timing advance for the mobile station is not available, the network may use one of the following two methods to trigger the mobile station to transmit a PACKET CONTROL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:
- if the PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message is not segmented and the CONTROL_ACK_TYPE parameter in the System Information indicates acknowledgement is access bursts, the network may set the poll bit in the PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message;
- if the PACKET DOWNLINK ASSIGNMENT message is segmented or the CONTROL_ACK_TYPE parameter in the System Information does not indicate acknowledgement is access bursts, the network may send PACKET POLLING REQUEST with TYPE_OF_ACK parameter set to access bursts (see subclause 11.2.12).
The mobile station shall always transmit the uplink radio block on the same timeslot as the block where the RRBP was received. After receiving an RLC/MAC block containing a valid RRBP field the mobile station need not monitor the USF in the associated downlink RLC/MAC block appearing just before the uplink block it shall transmit.
