DL-SCH Tx sequence Window (Advanced LTE FDD Downlink)

Select a DL-SCH channel in the Channel Setup node, then click the button in the Transmission Configuration cell to open the DL-SCH Tx sequence window.  

The DL-SCH TX window displays the transmission sequence defined in the Channel Setup node for the selected DL-SCH channel.

You can make adjustments to the MCS index, RV index, VRB type, VRB offset, VRB size, and scrambling 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 Column Preset button to access a drop-down list that enables you to set parameters for all transmissions to the same value.

DL-SCH Tx sequence window

Sequence

Displays the sequential number.

Frame

Displays the radio frame number.

Subframe

Displays the subframe number (0 to 9) in a radio frame.

State

Choice: On | Off

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to turn the subframe state on or off.

When this parameter is on, other settings on this subframe are visible. Otherwise they are invisible.

When the DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI) case, default is “Off” and there is no restriction for transmittable subframe. Otherwise “On”.

MCS#1

Choice: Off | 0 to 31

Default: 0

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select MCS index for the subframe.

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 1 to 65523 (C-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows:

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows:

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

Mod#1

Choice: QPSK | 16QAM | 64QAM

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select modulation type for the subframe.

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 1 to 65523 (C-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows:

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows:

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

TBS#1

Choice: Off | 0 to 26

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select TBS Index for the subframe.

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 1 to 65523 (C-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows.

DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI) case, this parameter is as follows.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

TB Size

Range: 1 to 1736 (DCI Format 1C)

1 to 75376 (DCI Format 1A or 1e Antenna Configuration)

1 to 149776 (2 or 4 Antenna Configuration)

Where TBS = Off, this parameter is available to change value by manual. Otherwise (0 to 26) automatically determined as read only parameter.

Where MCS = 29 to 31 case is exception, TBS, TB Size and Mod is available to change by manual.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

RV#1

This parameter indicates RV Index for each subframe respectively.

Where DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 1 to 65523 (C-RNTI) and RV Index Configuration = Auto case, this parameter is automatically decided by both RV Index Sequence and ReTrans parameters.

Where DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI), this parameter is set to manually.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.321.

VRB Type

Choice: Localized | Distributed

Default: Localized

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select the virtual resource block type for the subframe.

Where DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 1 to 65523 (C-RNTI) and RA Type = Type2 case, this parameter is available to select Localized or Distributed.

Where DL-SCH parameter RNTI = 65535 (SI-RNTI), this parameter is as follows:

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.211 and 36.213.

RB Offset

Range: Depends on relative parameters as follows:

Enter the RB offset for the subframe.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

RB Size

Range: Depends on relative parameters as follows.

Enter the RB size for the subframe.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.

RB Gap

Choice: Ngap, 1 | Ngap, 2

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select the RB Gap for the subframe.

Only VRB Type = ‘Distributed’ case this parameter is visible.

VRB Type = Distributed and System BW >= 50 case, this parameter is selectable by manual.

VRB Type = Distributed and System BW < 50 case, this parameter is read only and Ngap, 1.

For more details, refer to 3GPP TS 36.213.
