scope:

The present document describes the technical characteristics and methods of test for testing the USIM Application Toolkit implemented in Mobile Equipments (ME) or Mobile Station (MS) within the 3GPP digital cellular telecommunications system, in compliance with the relevant requirements, and in accordance with the relevant guidance given in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [19] and ETSI ETS 300 406 [20].

The present document is valid for ME implemented according to 3GPP Release 99, or Release 4, or any later Release.

The present document covers the minimum characteristics considered necessary in order to provide sufficient performance for mobile equipment and to prevent interference to other services or to other users, and to the PLMNs.

It does not necessarily include all the characteristics which may be required by a user or subscriber, nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable.

The present document is part of the 3GPP-series of technical specifications. The present document neither replaces any of the other 3GPP technical specifications or 3GPP related ETSs or ENs, nor is it created to provide full understanding of (or parts of) the UMTS. The present document lists the requirements, and provides the methods of test for testing the USIM Application Toolkit implemented in a ME for conformance to the 3GPP standard.

For a full description of the system, reference should be made to all the 3GPP technical specifications or 3GPP related ETSIs, ETSs or ENs. Clause 2 provides a complete list of the 3GPP technical specifications, 3GPP related ETSI's EtSs, ENs, and ETRs, on which this conformance test specifications is based.

If there is a difference between this present conformance document, and any other 3GPP technical specification or 3GPP related ETSI, ETS, EN, or 3GPP TS, then the other 3GPP technical specification or 3GPP related ETSI ETS, EN or 3GPP TS shall prevail.

Within the context of this document, the term "terminal" used in ETSI TS 102 384 [26] refers to the Mobile Equipment (ME).

Within the context of this document, the term "UICC" used in ETSI TS 102 384 [26] refers to the USIM card.

Within the context of this document, the term "NAA" used in ETSI TS 102 384 [26] refers to the USIM application.

For the avoidance of doubt, references to clauses of ETSI TS 102 384 [26] or ETSI TS 102 221 [13] include all the subclauses of that clause, unless specifically mentioned.

The target test specification ETSI TS 102 384 [26] contains material that is outside of the scope of 3GPP requirements and the present document indicates which parts are in the scope and which are not.

A 3GPP ME may support functionality that is not required by 3GPP, but the requirements to do so are outside of the scope of 3GPP. Thus the present document does not contain tests or references to ETSI TS 102 384 [26] tests for features which are out of scope of 3GPP.

In the present document, unless explicitly stated otherwise, for Rel-13 onwards the term E-UTRAN implicitly refers to the E-UTRAN in WB-S1 mode. E-UTRAN in NB-S1 mode is always explicitly referred to as NB-IoT.
