Foreword
This Technical Specification has been produced by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version x.y.z
where:
x	the first digit:
1	presented to TSG for information;
2	presented to TSG for approval;
3	or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control.
y	the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections, updates, etc.
z	the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the document.
1	Scope
The present document specifies the measurement procedures for the conformance test of the minimum performance requirements for FDD mode of UTRA user equipment (UE) where the only Assisted Global Navigation Satellite System (A-GNSS) supported is Assisted Global Positioning System (A-GPS) L1 C/A. The procedures for UEs that support other or additional A-GNSSs are specified in 3GPP TS 34.172 [18].
Tests are only applicable to those mobiles that are intended to support the appropriate functionality. To indicate the circumstances in which tests apply, this is noted in the "definition and applicability" part of the test.
2	References
The following documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present document.
References are either specific (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.) or non‑specific.
For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (including a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same Release as the present document.
-	For a Release 1999 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 3.x.y.
-	For a Release 4 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 4.x.y.
-	For a Release 5 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 5.x.y.
-	For a Release 6 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 6.x.y.
-	For a Release 7 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 7.x.y.
-	For a Release 8 UE, references to 3GPP documents are to version 8.x.y.
