UCI Tx sequence Window (Advanced LTE-A Pro FDD Uplink)

The UCI Tx sequence window displays the currently configured UCI transmission sequence. The UCI channel cannot be transmitted in subframes occupied by UL-SCH processes. (In the Channel Setup node, set the UL-SCH State to Off, if necessary.) You can set parameters for each UCI transmission from within the UCI Tx sequence window. Click the Column Preset button to access a drop-down list that enables you to set parameters for all UCI Tx sequences to the same value.

To populate the UCI Tx sequence Window, you must set the State parameter to On under Waveform Setup > Carrier Aggregation > Component Carrier > Uplink > Channel Setup > UCI.

Data

Choice: PN9 | PN15 | User Defined Bits

Default: PN9

Specifies the data for PUCCH Format 2, 2a, 2b, 4, 5, 4 Short, or 5 Short.

When the choice of Data is changed to User Defined Bits or the sequence of User Defined Bits is changed, Data Size is automatically set the same sequence length of User Defined Bits or clipped to the range of Data Size.

For more flexible use-cases, the sequence length of Data and Data Size is available different values. The sequence of User Defined Bits is not changed even though other parameters are changed.

The channel input data is Data Size length of selected Data sequence. The sequence of Data is used repeatedly when Data Size is larger than sequence length of Data.

Data Size

Range:

Format 2, 2a, or 2b: 1 to 13

Format 4: 23 to RB Size x 288* (*Extended CP: 240)

Format 4 Short: 23 to RB Size x 264* (*Extended CP: 216)

Format 5: 23 to 144* (*Extended CP: 120)

Format 5 Short: 23 to 132* (*Extended CP: 108)

Default: 4 (Format 2, 2a, or 2b)

Specifies the data size for PUCCH Format 2, 2a, 2b, 4, 5, 4 Short, or 5 Short.

For more flexible use-cases, the sequence length of Data and Data Size is available different values. The sequence of User Defined Bits is not changed even though other parameters are changed.

The channel input data is Data Size length of selected Data sequence. The sequence of Data is used repeatedly when Data Size is larger than sequence length of Data.

HARQ-ACK

Choice:

ACK | NACK (Format 1a/2a/1a Short)

ACK-ACK | ACK-NACK | NACK-ACK | NACK-NACK (Format 1b/2b/1b Short)

ALL ACK | ALL NACK | User Defined Bits (Format 3 / 3 Short)

Default:

ACK (Format 1a / 2a / 1a Short)

ACK-ACK (Format 1b / 2b /1b Short)

ALL ACK (Format 3 / 3 Short)

Specifies the HARQ-ACK information corresponding to PUCCH Format.

Double-click the HARQ-ACK cell for the sequence you want to configure to open the HARQ-ACK Info Selection dialog box. Select the radio button in the dialog box for the desired HARQ-ACK. The choices available for HARQ-ACK are determined by the active Format.
