Scrambling and RNTI (PDSCH, 6GR)
The group of the PDSCH tab. All parameters are auto-coupled — see Auto and Manual Parameter Coupling.
RNTI - Sets the Radio Network Temporary Identifier used to scramble the data this PDSCH Physical Downlink Shared Channel carries. This is the RNTI term of the scrambling sequence initialization defined by 3GPP TS Technical Specification 38.211 §7.3.1.1, so it must match the value the transmitter used for the data to descramble correctly. It affects the recovered bits only; the constellation is unchanged.
Default: 1
Range: 0 to 65535
Nid - One row holding a source selector and a value, setting the data scrambling identity used alongside the RNTI in the scrambling sequence initialization (3GPP TS 38.211 §7.3.1.1). This is separate from the DMRS scrambling identity set by DMRS Nid Source.
- Cell ID - The data scrambling identity is derived from the cell ID. The value cell reports the cell identity in use and is read-only.
- From RRC - The data scrambling identity is the value entered beside the selector, emulating the higher-layer parameter.
Default: source Cell ID; identity the carrier's cell identity
Choices (source): Cell ID, From RRC. Range (identity): 0 to 1023
Power Boosting - Sets the power boost applied to this PDSCH's data resource elements, relative to the carrier reference power. The equivalent boost for the reference signal is DMRS Power Boosting.
Default: 0 dB
Range: -30 to 30 dB
