HS-DPCCH

The High-speed Dedicated Physical Control Channel (HS-DPCCH) transmits the ACK/NACK information for the physical layer re-transmissions and the channel quality information (CQI) that is used in the Node B scheduler to determine which terminal to transmit and at which data rate.

Choice: DTX All | ACK All | NACK All | Custom Pattern| User File

Default: ACK All

Edit the ACK/NACK Pattern of the uplink HS-DPCCH by clicking on the cell. Then click on the dialog box icon to launch the Closed ACK/NACK Pattern dialog box.

This is also used as the primary cell ACK/NACK pattern (non-MIMO).

When loading a user file through the software's Data dialog box, the MXG/EXG requires an ASCII text file consisting of 1s and 0s. When using SCPI commands, all instruments require a binary data file.

DTX All	This choice sets all subframes to DTX. DTX is represented by 10.
ACK All	An ACK response is represented by 00.
NACK All	A NACK response is represented by 01.
Custom Pattern
User File	This variable represents an ACK pattern file stored in signal generator memory. The file must contain 2,560-bits of data (2 bit per subframe) or the Play will execute.

When loading a user file through the software's Data dialog box, the MXG/EXG requires an ASCII text file consisting of 1s and 0s. When using SCPI commands, all instruments require a binary data file.

A CQI response range is one to thirty using 8 bit, 00000001 to 00011110.
DTX is represented by 11111111

DTX All	This choice sets all subframes to DTX.
FIX	The FIX value is used as the CQI value for dual cell/MIMO cases when the secondary cell state is On or MIMO state is On.
Custom Pattern	Sets the DPCCH FBI data pattern to Custom Pattern. The value of this command is a string which is represented ‘0’ or ‘1’. The maximum data length is 81920 patterns.
User File	This variable represents a bit file stored in signal generator memory. The file must contain 10,240-bits of data (8 bit per subframe) or the apply function (uplink apply command) will not work.
