Choice: 0 or 1 separated by commas
Length: 5 or 20 (Depends on Subframe Allocation)
Default: 1,...,1 (All 1's)
Enter 5 or 20 bits in length (1 = On, 0 = Off), separated by commas, to allocate the Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) on the Multicast Channel (MCH). For the Subframe Allocation 1 frame and 4 frames, the Allocation Bitmap length is configured 5 bits and 20 bits, respectively. (If you enter fewer than 5 or 20 bits, 0 is inserted to fill in the remaining bits. And, the pattern of 1's and 0's is repeated in the remaining bits.) The Allocation Bitmap assigns the bits according to the Uplink Downlink configuration selected. Uplink subframes are not allocated .
: The 5 bits length bitmap is applied as follows:
The first/leftmost bit defines the MBSFN allocation for subframe #3, the second bit for #4, third bit for #7, fourth bit for #8, fifth bit for #9, and the sixth bit for #8. Uplink subframes are not allocated and the last bit is not used.
: The 20 bits length bitmap is applied as follows:
Starting from the first radio frame and from the first/leftmost bit in the bitmap, the allocation applies to subframes #3, #4, #7 , #8, #9 in the sequence of the four radio-frames. Uplink subframes are not allocated and the last four bits are not used.
