TPC RNTI Range (LTE)

Default: Max = 0
Min = 0

Range: 0 to 65523

TPC RNTI Range specifies the range of RNTI Radio Network Temporary Identifier values that are assumed to be TPC Transmit Power Control RNTIs when decoding PDCCH Physical Downlink Control Channel transmissions.

DCI Downlink Control Information Formats 3 and 3A have the same message payload size as DCI Formats 0 and 1A. Any PDCCHs with a RNTI falling within the specified TPC RNTI Range will be decoded as DCI Format 3/3A transmit power control commands.

Any PDCCH whose CRC Cyclic Redundancy Check is scrambled with an RNTI that is not contained in either the RA 1) Random Access, or 2) Receiver Address-RNTI or TPC-RNTI ranges and cannot be determined to be a SI Status Indicator-RNTI or P-RNTI will be demodulated as a C-RNTI PDCCH.
