DL BWP:

DL bandwidth part as defined in TS 38.213.

EN-DC:

E-UTRA-NR Dual Connectivity as defined in clause 4.1.2 of TS 37.340.

Enhanced Receiver Type 1:

SU-MIMO interference mitigation advanced receiver [14]

R-ML (reduced complexity ML) receiver with enhanced inter-stream interference suppression for SU-MIMO transmissions with rank 2 with 2 RX antennas
R-ML (reduced complexity ML) receiver with enhanced inter-stream interference suppression for SU-MIMO transmissions with rank 2, 3, and 4 with 4 RX antennas

FR1:

3.2 Symbols p. 17

For the purposes of the present document, the following symbols apply:

E_s

Subcarrier spacing configuration as defined in clause 4.2 of TS 38.211

Ν_oc

The power spectral density of a white noise source with average power per Hz as defined in Clause 4.4.3 for conducted requirements and Clause 4.5.3 for radiated requirements
