1 Scope
The present document contains the Test Suite Structure (TSS) and Test Purposes (TP) to test the BRAN
HiperMAN 1.2.1 Data Link Control (DLC) layer.
The objective of this test specification is to provide a basis for conformance tests for HiperMAN equipment giving a
high probability of air interface inter-operability between different manufacturers' HiperMAN equipment.
The ISO standard for the methodology of conformance testing (ISO/IEC 9646-1 [5] and ISO/IEC 9646-2 [6]) as well as
the ETSI rules for conformance testing (ETS 300 406 [4]) are used as a basis for the test methodology.

Figure 1: TSS for HiperMAN DLC
The test suite is structured as a tree with the root defined as DLC-BS or DLC-SS representing the protocol groups "DLC
for BS" or "DLC for SS". The tree is of rank 3 with the first rank a Group, the second a Function, and the third a
sub-function. The third rank is broken down into the standard ISO conformance test categories CA, BV, BI, BO and TI
as defined in clause 4.2.2.
4.2 Test groups
Each test group has a total of three levels. The first level is the protocol services. The second level separates the
protocol services into the various functional areas. The third level are the sub-functional areas. The fourth level, if
required, is used to indicate the initiator (BS or SS) or the direction of communication (DL or UL). This fourth level is
not shown in figure 1.
4.2.1 Protocol services
The protocol groups identify the DLC protocol services given in TS 102 178 [1] and IEEE 802.16-2004 [2].
4.2.1.1 Channel descriptors and maps
This protocol group contains the test purposes for the DCD, UCD, DL-MAP, and UL-MAP messages that provide
channel parameters and burst mapping. Such functions as Scanning for the Downlink Channel and Obtaining Uplink
Parameter are included.
4.2.1.2 Radio Link Control (RLC)
This protocol group contains the test purposes for Initial Ranging/Automatic Adjustments, Negotiating Basic
Capabilities, Periodic Ranging, and Downlink Profile management.
4.2.1.3 Registration, IP connectivity, and TFTP
This protocol group includes the test purposes for Registration during Initialization, IP Connectivity during
Initializations, Time of Day Establishment, and the Transfer of Operational Parameters.
4.2.1.4 Privacy and key management
The functions included in this protocol group are Authentication/Authorization, Certification, Reauthorization, TEK
Exchange, TEK Update, TEK Scheduling, Security Association Management, Encryption, and Decryption.
4.2.1.5 Dynamic services
Dynamic service addition, change, and deletion for both BS-Initiated and DS-Initiated behaviour are in this protocol
group.
4.2.1.6 Bandwidth allocation and polling
This protocol group includes the bandwidth request/grant functions for stand-alone, piggyback and focused contention.
ETSI
12 ETSI TS 102 385-2 V2.5.1 (2008-12)
4.2.1.7 Reset and re-registration
Reset and re-registration functions are included in this protocol group.
4.2.1.8 Clock comparison
The clock comparison function in this group is used in network systems with service flows carrying information that
requires the SSs to reconstruct their network clock signals, e.g. DS1 and DS3.
4.2.1.9 MAC PDU Construction
The functions included in this protocol group are PDU Packing, Fragmentation, Concatenation, CRC Use, ARQ Reset,
ARQ Receive, and ARQ Transmit.
4.2.1.10 Packet convergence sublayer
The service specific packet Convergence Sublayer (CS) resides on top of the MAC sublayer and utilizes, via the MAC
SAP, the services provided by the MAC sublayer. The CS performs the following functions:
• Accepting higher-layer PDUs.
• Classifying higher-layer PDUs.
• Processing (if necessary) classified higher-layer PDUs.
• Delivering PDUs to the appropriate MAC SAP.
4.2.1.11 DLC MAC Sublayer
The MAC sublayer provides the core MAC functionality of system access, bandwidth allocation, connection
establishment, and connection maintenance. It receives data from the various convergence sublayers classified to
particular MAC connections. QoS is applied to the transmission and scheduling of data over the PHY. The MAC
sublayer also performs authentication, secure key exchange, and encryption management.
4.2.2 Main test types
The main test types are the valid behaviour group, the invalid behaviour group and the inopportune behaviour group.
4.2.2.1 Valid Behaviour (BV) tests
This test group shall verify that the IUT reacts in conformity with the base specifications after receipt or exchange of
valid Protocol Data Units (PDUs). Valid PDUs means that the exchange of messages and the content of the exchanged
messages are considered as valid.
4.2.2.2 Invalid Behaviour (BI) tests
This test sub group shall verify that the IUT reacts in conformity with the base specifications after receipt of a
syntactically invalid PDU.
4.2.2.3 inOpportune Behaviour (BO) tests
This test sub group shall verify that the IUT reacts in conformity with the base specifications after receipt of a
syntactically correct PDU not expected in the actual message exchange.
4.2.2.4 TImer and counter (TI) tests
This test group shall verify that the IUT reacts in conformity with the base specifications after expiry of a defined timer
or counter.
