Num of Meas Channels (LTE-Advanced)

Num of Meas Channels is a read-only parameter that shows how many VSA measurement channels have been selected for analysis.

The maximum number of layers allowed for any user in the LTE Allocation Editor is constrained to be less than or equal to Num of Meas Channels. For PDSCH Physical Downlink Shared Channel allocations transmitted on C-RS Cell-specific RS antenna ports, the maximum number of layers is also constrained to be less than or equal to the Num of C-RS Ports.

Up to 64 measurement channels can be used for analysis. To change the number of measurement channels, click Input > Channels and select a different channel configuration.

Refer to the Measurement Platforms book for information on which channel configurations are supported by your measurement hardware.

For more information about VSA channel configuration, see the About Input Channels topic in the Reference section of the help.
