UE category
Hello All,
first post for me . I will be using a variety of test handsets for my Hsdpa throughput testing and wondered if I can look at the layer 3 messages to confirm what capability the handset has in terms of codes/ modulation etc. I know there's tables available to say what capability each handset category has but how do I confirm which category the handset falls into?
Thanks
Gramps.

Hi.
Maximum HSDPA data rates depending on 3GPP categories
Max nb of HSDSCH codes Min inter-TTI interval Modulation Maximum data rates (Mbit/s)
Category 1 5 3 QSPK & 16QAM 1.2
Category 2 5 3 QSPK & 16QAM 1.2
Category 3 5 2 QSPK & 16QAM 1.8
Category 4 5 2 QSPK & 16QAM 1.8
Category 5 5 1 QSPK & 16QAM 3.6
Category 6 5 1 QSPK & 16QAM 3.6
Category 7 10 1 QSPK & 16QAM 7.2
Category 8 10 1 QSPK & 16QAM 7.2
Category 9 15 1 QSPK & 16QAM 10.2
Category 10 15 1 QSPK & 16QAM 14.4
Category 11 5 2 QPSK 0.9
Category 12 5 1 QPSK 1.8
Maximum HSUPA data rates depending on 3GPP categories
Codes x spreading TTI Maximum data rates (Mbit/s)
Category 1 1 x SF4 10 0.73
Category 2 2 x SF4 10 1.46
Category 2 2 x SF4 2 1.46
Category 4 2 x SF4 10 1.46
Category 4 2 x SF2 2 2.9
Category 5 2 x SF2 10 2
Category 6 2xSF2 + 2 x SF4 10 2
Category 6 2xSF2 + 2 x SF4 2 5.76
I hope it helps

Again, sorry. Copy-paste did not work.
Let see if now:

Re: UE category
Thanks everyone for taking the time to reply. I have the tables already that defines what each category of handset is capable of. I was specifically looking for the messages in layer 3 where I could see the handset category when I am analysing data from handset. If I am testing with different handset then I'd like to check the layer 3 and identify which category it is from there. We have different test handsets and I'd like to make sure I know which category they all are.
btw I don't have enough permissions yet to view the attachments.
Many thanks

Re: UE category
Hi Gramps,
the information you are looking for is in the RRC Connection Setup Complete (UL-DCCH).Part of which is shown below.
The hsdsch-physical-layer-category shows this UE has a catergory of 8.
rrcConnectionSetupComplete-v590ext
ue-RadioAccessCapability-v590ext
dl-CapabilityWithSimultaneousHS-DSCHConfig : kbps128
pdcp-Capability-r5-ext
supportForRfc3095ContextRelocation : False
rlc-Capability-r5-ext
totalRLC-AM-BufferSize : kb300
physicalChannelCapability
fdd-hspdsch : supported
hsdsch-physical-layer-category : 8
