environment at nominal levels is in conformance with [1]. 9

1.3 Requirements Language 10

“Shall” and “shall not” identify requirements to be followed strictly to conform to the 11

standard and from which no deviation is permitted. “Should” and “should not” indicate that 12

one of several possibilities is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or 13

excluding others, that a certain course of action is preferred but not necessarily required, or 14

that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is discouraged but not 15

prohibited. “May” and “need not” indicate a course of action permissible within the limits of 16

the standard. “Can” and “cannot” are used for statements of possibility and capability, 17

whether material, physical, or causal. 18

8.2 Default Access Channel MAC Protocol Tests 1


8.2.1.1 AccessParameters Message Transmission Test 3


This test verifies that the access network periodically transmits the AccessParameters 5

message on the Control Channel . 6


a. Cause the access terminal to record the messages received on the Control 8

Channel. 9



The access network shall transmit an AccessParameters message on the Control Channel at 12

least once every 5.12 s. 13



This test verifies that the access network responds to a Default Access Channel MAC 16

Protocol ConfigurationRequest message with a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 17




b. Cause the access terminal to send an Access Channel MAC Protocol 21




The access network shall respond to a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 25

ConfigurationRequest message with a corresponding Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 26


3GPP2 C.S0038

8-4




This test verifies that if the access terminal receives a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 4

ConfigurationRequest message while in the AN Initiated State of the Session Configuration 5

Protocol, then it responds with a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 6







message from the access terminal, 13

d. Cause the access network to send a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 14




The access terminal shall respond to a Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 18

ConfigurationRequest message with a corresponding Default Access Channel MAC Protocol 19


8.3 Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC Protocol Tests 21


8.3.1.1 FixedModeEnable Message Response Test 23


This test verifies that the access network responds to the receipt of a FixedModeEnable 25

message from the access terminal by going to the Fixed Rate State and transmitting packets 26

at the fixed rate requested in the FixedModeEnable message. After the expiration of the 27

EndTime value indicated in the FixedModeEnable message, the access network transitions 28

to the Variable Rate State. 29

8-5

c. Initiate downloading of a file from the service access network. A representative 1

data file is RAND200.BIN defined in appendix D of [5]. 2

d. Cause the access terminal to go into the Fixed Rate State by covering its DRC 3

with a null cover and send a FixedModeEnable message with DRCCover (serving 4

sector), RequestedRateDRCValue, and EndTime fields set appropriately. The 5

RequestedRateDRCValue should be lower than any of the variable data rates 6

recorded recently. 7

e. Verify that the access network meets the minimum standard as per bullet 1 in 8

8.3.1.1.3. 9

f. After the expiration of the EndTime associated with the Fixed Rate State, cause 10

the access terminal to set the DRC equal to a fixed value higher than the 11

RequestedRateDRCValue in step d. 12

g. Verify that the access network meets the minimum standard as per bullet 2 in 13

8.3.1.1.3. 14


1. Before the expiration of the EndTime associated with the Fixed Rate State, the 16

access network shall transmit Fixed Rate Packets at the rate requested in a 17

FixedModeEnable message. 18

2. After the expiration of the EndTime associated with the Fixed Rate State, the 19

access network shall transition to Variable Rate State by transmitting Variable 20

Rate Packets at the rate requested on the DRC channel in step f. 21



This test verifies that the access network responds to a Default Forward Traffic Channel 24

MAC Protocol ConfigurationRequest message with a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 25

Protocol ConfigurationResponse message. 26



b. Cause the access terminal to send a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 29

Protocol ConfigurationRequest message. 30



The access network shall respond to a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 33

ConfigurationRequest message with a corresponding Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 34


3GPP2 C.S0038

8-6




This test verifies that if the access terminal receives a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 4

Protocol ConfigurationRequest message while in the AN Initiated State of the Session 5

Configuration Protocol, then it responds with a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 6








d. Cause the access network to send a Forward Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 14




The access terminal shall respond to a Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 18

ConfigurationRequest message with a corresponding Default Forward Traffic Channel MAC 19


8.4 Default Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol Tests 21




This test verifies that the access network responds to a Default Reverse Traffic Channel 25

MAC Protocol ConfigurationRequest message with a Default Reverse Traffic Channel MAC 26




b. Cause the access terminal to send a Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 30



3GPP2 C.S0038

8-7


The access network shall respond to a Default Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 2

ConfigurationRequest message with a Default Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 3





This test verifies that if the access terminal receives a Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 8

ConfigurationRequest message while in the AN Initiated State of the Session Configuration 9

Protocol, then it responds with a Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 10








d. Cause the access network to send a Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 18




The access terminal shall respond to a Default Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 22

ConfigurationRequest message with a Reverse Traffic Channel MAC Protocol 23
