PDCCH Transmission Configuration (Advanced LTE FDD Downlink)

In the Channel Setup node, select a DCI channel, then click the button in the Transmission Configuration cell to open the PDCCH Transmission Configuration dialog box. Click the Column Preset button to access a Closeddrop-down list that enables you to set the parameters for all PDCCH transmissions to the same value. Click the Radio Frame button to access a Closeddrop-down list that enables you to select a radio frame in which to configure the PDCCH. Click the Subframe button to access a Closeddrop-down list that enables you to select a subframe in which to configure the PDCCH. Select the All Subframes couple with subframe #0 checkbox to set the parameters for all subframes to the same values as those for subframe 0.
