1. Cell Parameters

Cell ID

Range:   0 to 503

Default:  0 with Auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration set to Off

Same as the CC index number with auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration set to On

With Auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration set to Off, enter a Cell ID value.

The software uses this value to set the Physical Layer Cell ID group and sector cells:

Cell ID = (3 x Physical Cell ID group + Physical Cell ID sector).

See 3GPP TS 36.211 for more information.

Antenna Port

Choice: (It depends on Total Number of Antennas.)

0 (1 Antenna case)

0 | 1 (2 Antenna case)

0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 (4 Antenna case)

Default: 0

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to set the antenna to be used for transmitting the uplink signal.

The available selections are determined by the Total Number of Antennas setting, see this parameter below.

When the MIMO Quick Setup is selected, this parameter is hidden.

See 3GPP TS 36.211 for more information.

Total Number of Antennas

Choice: 1 Antenna | 2 Antennas | 4 Antennas

Default: 1 Antenna

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to set the total number of physical antenna port configuration used for uplink transmission in this cell.

When the MIMO Quick Setup is selected, this parameter is read-only.

See 3GPP TS 36.211 for more information.

System Bandwidth

Choice: 1.4 MHz (6RB) | 3 MHz (15RB) | 5 MHz (25RB) | 10 MHz (50RB) |15 MHz (75RB) |

20 MHz (100RB)

Default: 10 MHz (50RB)

Use the drop-down menu to set the system bandwidth and number of Resource Blocks (RB).

When the system bandwidth is changed, the software automatically adjusts the value in the Total number of Resource Blocks cell, the Total number of Occupied Sub-carriers cell and so on.

The resource blocks and some parameters are reconfigured by changing the System Bandwidth parameter.

In the case (1) or (2), auto configuration is done for Frequency Offset, Cell ID, Uplink Downlink Configuration, Special Subframe Configuration and Cyclic Prefix.

(1) When any action, Add CC, Delete CC, Copy CC, or Change System BW is executed and Auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration is on.

(2) When Auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration is changed to on from off.

Auto configuration sets the Cell ID to the same value as Component Carrier Index, and the parameters (Uplink downlink Configuration, Special Subframe Configuration and Cyclic Prefix) on the secondary cells to the same value of the primary cell and read-only.

Auto configuration sets the Cell ID to the same value as Component Carrier Index.

System Bandwidth is automatically set to 10 MHz or 20 MHz when Resource Allocation Type 3 is changed to on.

Resource Allocation Type 3 is automatically set to off when System Bandwidth is changed to a value other than 10 MHz or 20 MHz.

Total Number of Resource Blocks

The value in this cell is set by the software based on the System Bandwidth setting.

Total Number of Occupied Sub-carriers

The value in this cell is set by the software based on the System Bandwidth setting. The center subcarrier is not used for downlink transmission, so the number of transmitted subcarriers is one less than the number of occupied subcarriers.

Subcarrier Spacing

Default: 15 KHz

Displays the subcarrier spacing.

Cyclic Prefix

Choice: Normal | Extended

Default: Normal

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to select a Normal or Extended cyclic prefix. The software sets Number of Symbols for Resource Block based on the cyclic prefix selection.

When the corresponding Component Carrier is set to secondary cell and Auto Carrier Aggregation Configuration parameter is set to on, Cyclic Prefix is set to the same value as the primary cell value and read-only.

Cyclic Prefix is automatically set to Normal when Resource Allocation Type 3 is changed to on.

Resource Allocation Type 3 is automatically set to off when Cyclic Prefix is changed to Extended.

See 3GPP TS36.211 5.2.4 for more information.

Number of Subcarriers for Resource Block

Default: 12

Displays the number of consecutive subcarriers in a resource block.

Number of Symbols for Resource Block

Default: 7 (Normal CP); 6 (Extended CP)

Displays the number of consecutive OFDM symbols in a slot.

PUSCH DFT Swap

Choice: Off | On

Default: Off

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to turn PUSCH DFT Swap on or off.

PUSCH DFT Swap influences how data is mapped to resource elements in the physical uplink shared channel after discrete Fourier transform is performed. PUSCH DFT Swap can be turned on or off to provide two different interpretations of how data should be mapped to resource elements in PUSCH channels.

2. Sounding Reference Signal
