Select a DCI channel in the Channel
Setup node, then click the button in the transmission configurations for DCI #n (DL-SCHn Control), DCI #9 (UL Scheduling), DCI #10 (RA Initiation), DCI #11 (UL Power Control) Transmission , or DCI#12 cells to open the DCI#n/PDCCH Transmission Configuration window. You can also access this window through the DL-SCHn channel's DCI #n (DL-SCHn Control) Transmission Configuration parameter.
The DCI#n/PDCCH window displays the transmission configuration defined in the Channel Setup node for the selected DCI channel.
You can make adjustments to the TPC PUCCH, Data type, Search Space (common or UE specific), and Aggregation Level for each DL-SCH transmission from within the DL-SCH Tx sequence window.
The settings configured in the Channel Setup node and the DL-SCH Tx sequence window are displayed in the Tx Map.
Use the Import tab to navigate to and import a saved transmission sequence.
Use the Export tab to save the current transmission sequence to a file.
Click the
to access a drop-down list
that enables you to set parameters for all transmissions to the same value.
DCI#n/PDCCH Tx sequence window
Displays the radio frame number.
Displays the subframe number (0 to 9) in radio frame.
Choice: On | Off
Default: Off
Double-click or use the drop-down menu to turn the subframe state on or off.
Where the data is set to

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.
Use the drop-down menu to select the UE's accumulative Tx Power Control (TPC) PUCCH power step.
Choice: PN9 | PN15 | Auto-Configured Bits | User Defined Bits
Default: Auto-Configured Bits
Use the Data Source Selection dialog box to select ‘PN9’, ‘PN15’, ‘Auto-Configured Bits’ or ‘User Defined Bits’ to use for the DCI data contents.
Where
, displays , DCI data contents contains corresponding DL-SCH data and the state is not settable. Otherwise DCI data contents are indicated sequence with data size and the state is settable.Range: 1 to 100
Enter the payload data size (bits) for DCI.
Where the data is set to Auto-Configured Bits, this parameter is read only and automatically defined by corresponding DL-SCH. Otherwise this is settable.
For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.212.
Range: 1 to 65535
Where
is set to , this parameter is read only and automatically defined by corresponding DL-SCH. Otherwise this is settable.Choice: Common | UE Specific
Default: UE Specific
Double-click or use the drop-down menu to set the search space auto-assignment of the PDCCH channels.
Where RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI) and Data =
, this cell is set to and is a read only parameter. Otherwise this cell is settable.Choice: 1 | 2 | 4 | 8
Default: 1
Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select the aggregation level for the DCI.
For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.211 and 36.213.
Choice: 1 | 2 | 4 | 8
Default: 1
Enter the DCI candidate number for the DCI.
When
is enabled, this parameter is read only and automatically assigned from unused lower number.Otherwise this parameter is assigned manually by user.
The range depends on other settings as follows.
0 to 5 (UE-Specific and Aggregation Level = 1 or 2)
0 to 1 (UE-Specific and Aggregation Level = 4 or 8)
0 to 3 (Common and Aggregation Level = 4)
0 to 1 (Common and Aggregation Level = 8)
For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.211 and 36.213.
Displays the CCE Offset which is automatically calculated by other parameters.
