eNodeB cell-wide settings, specified as a structure containing these parameter fields.

Parameter FieldRequired or OptionalValuesDescription
DuplexModeOptional

'FDD' (default), 'TDD'

Duplexing mode, specified as either:

  • 'FDD' for Frequency Division Duplex

  • 'TDD' for Time Division Duplex

When DuplexMode is set to 'TDD' include:

  TDDConfigOptional

0, 1 (default), 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Uplink–downlink configuration

When chs.TxScheme is set to 'TxDiversity' include:

  CellRefPOptional

1, 2, 4

Number of cell-specific reference signal (CRS) antenna ports

Channel configuration, specified as a structure. It defines aspects of the PDSCH onto which the codewords are mapped. It also defines the DL-SCH soft buffer size and redundancy versions of the generated codewords.

chs can contain the following fields.

Parameter FieldRequired or OptionalValuesDescription
ModulationRequired'QPSK', '16QAM', '64QAM', '256QAM', '1024QAM'

Modulation type, specified as a character vector, cell array of character vectors, or string array. If blocks, each cell is associated with a transport block.

NLayersRequired

Integer from 1 to 8

Total number of transmission layers associated with the transport block or blocks.

TxSchemeRequired

'Port0', 'TxDiversity', 'CDD', 'SpatialMux', 'MultiUser', 'Port5', 'Port7-8', 'Port8', 'Port7-14'.

PDSCH transmission scheme, specified as one of the following options.

Transmission schemeDescription
'Port0'Single antenna port, port 0
'TxDiversity'Transmit diversity
'CDD'Large delay cyclic delay diversity scheme
'SpatialMux'Closed loop spatial multiplexing
'MultiUser'Multi-user MIMO
'Port5'Single-antenna port, port 5
'Port7-8'Single-antenna port, port 7, when NLayers = 1. Dual layer transmission, ports 7 and 8, when NLayers = 2.
'Port8'Single-antenna port, port 8
'Port7-14'Up to eight layer transmission, ports 7–14

RVRequired

Integer vector (0,1,2,3). A one or two column matrix (for one or two codewords).

Specifies the redundancy version for one or two codewords used in the initial subframe number, NSubframe. This parameter field is only for informational purposes and is read-only.

NSoftbitsOptional

Nonnegative scalar integer (default 0)

Total number of soft buffer bits. The default setting of 0 signifies that there is no buffer limit.

Transport block length, specified as a positive integer or a two-element positive integer vector. A two-element vector defines the length of transport blocks for two codewords.

Data Types: double
