4.1 Power allocation for downlink
The gNodeB determines the downlink transmit EPRE.
For the purpose of SS-RSRP, SS-RSRQ and SS-SINR measurements, the UE may assume downlink EPRE is constant
across the bandwidth. For the purpose of SS-RSRP, SS-RSRQ and SS-SINR measurements, the UE may assume
downlink EPRE is constant over SSS carried in different SS/PBCH blocks. For the purpose of SS-RSRP, SS-RSRQ and
SS-SINR measurements, the UE may assume that the ratio of SSS EPRE to PBCH DM-RS EPRE is 0 dB.
For the purpose of CSI-RSRP, CSI-RSRQ and CSI-SINR measurements, the UE may assume downlink EPRE of a port
of CSI-RS resource configuration is constant across the configured downlink bandwidth and constant across all
configured OFDM symbols.

The downlink SS/PBCH SSS EPRE can be derived from the SS/PBCH downlink transmit power given by the parameter
SS-PBCH-BlockPower provided by higher layers. The downlink SSS transmit power is defined as the linear average
over the power contributions (in [W]) of all resource elements that carry the SSS within the operating system
bandwidth.
The downlink CSI-RS EPRE can be derived from the SS/PBCH block downlink transmit power given by the parameter
SS-PBCH-BlockPower and CSI-RS power offset given by the parameter powerControlOffsetSS provided by higher
layers. The downlink reference-signal transmit power is defined as the linear average over the power contributions (in
[W]) of the resource elements that carry the configured CSI-RS within the operating system bandwidth.
For downlink DM-RS associated with PDSCH, the UE may assume the ratio of PDSCH EPRE to DM-RS EPRE (
β [dB]) is given by Table 4.1-1 according to the number of DM-RS CDM groups without data as described in
DMRS

When the UE is scheduled with a PT-RS port associated with the PDSCH,

5 Physical downlink shared channel related procedures
5.1 UE procedure for receiving the physical downlink shared
channel
For downlink, a maximum of 16 HARQ processes per cell is supported by the UE. The number of processes the UE
may assume will at most be used for the downlink is configured to the UE for each cell separately by higher layer
parameter nrofHARQ-processesForPDSCH, and when no configuration is provided the UE may assume a default
number of 8 processes.
A UE shall upon detection of a PDCCH with a configured DCI format 1_0 or 1_1 decode the corresponding PDSCHs
as indicated by that DCI. The UE is not expected to receive another PDSCH for a given HARQ process until after the
end of the expected transmission of HARQ-ACK for that HARQ process, where the timing is given by Subclause 9.2.3

of [6]. The UE is not expected to receive a PDSCH in slot i, with the corresponding HARQ-ACK assigned to be
transmitted in slot j, and another PDSCH in slot after slot i with its corresponding HARQ-ACK assigned to be
transmitted in a slot before slot j. For any two HARQ process IDs in a given cell, if the UE is scheduled to start
receiving a PDSCH in symbol j by a PDCCH starting in symbol i, the UE is not expected to be scheduled to receive a
PDSCH starting earlier than symbol j with a PDCCH starting later than symbol i.
If the UE has received no ssb-PositionsInBurst in ServingCellConfigCommon through higher layer signalling about
SS/PBCH block transmissions in the serving cell, the UE assumes SS/PBCH block transmission according to ssb-
PositionsInBurst in ServingCellConfigCommonSIB, and if the PDSCH resource allocation overlaps with PRBs
containing SS/PBCH block transmission resources the UE shall assume that PRBs containing SS/PBCH block are not
available for PDSCH in the OFDM symbols where SS/PBCH block is transmitted. The UE assumes the periodicity of
the SS/PBCH block transmission resources based on SSB-periodicity-serving-cell.
