Synchronization Signals (Advanced LTE-A FDD Downlink)

Downlink LTE uses two types of synchronization signals:

6. Synchronization Signals

Primary Synch Signal State

Primary Synch Signal Power

Secondary Synch Signal State

Secondary Synch Signal Power

P-SS/S-SS Transmit Antenna Port

Primary Synch Signal State

Choice: Off | On

Default: On

The software sets the state of the primary synchronization signal (P-SS) to On. You can control the P-SS power as described below.

Primary Synch Signal Power

Range: -60 to 20 dB

Default: 0.000 dB

Enter the power level in dB for the primary synchronization signal, relative to the reference signal per resource element (i.e. when the reference signal power is set to 0 dB).

Secondary Synch Signal State

Choice: Off | On

Default: On

The software sets the state of the secondary synchronization signal (S-SS) to On. You can control the S-SS power as described below.

Secondary Synch Signal Power

Range: -60 to 20 dB

Default: 0.000 dB

Enter the power level in dB for the secondary synchronization signal, relative to the average subcarrier power.

P-SS/S-SS Transmit Antenna Port

Choice: Port 0 | Port 1 | Port 2 | Port 3 | All Port

Default: Port 0

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select the P-SS/S-SS transmit antenna port.

This parameter specifies the antenna port(s) that P-SS and S-SS are transmitted on. P-SS and S-SS can be transmitted on a single antenna (Port0/1/2/3) or all the antenna ports.
