Channel (UARFCN) Parameters

Last updated: November 7, 2012

The Channel (UARFCN) Parameters allow you to configure the downlink and uplink channels, and specify the frequency band. For more information on these parameters, see:

• DL Channel
• Uplink Channel
• Band Arbitrator
• Frequency Band Indicator State
• Transmit SIB5bis

To help you configure the frequency band and channels, the Channel (UARFCN) Information screen displays the downlink and uplink channels currently in use by the test set, the current handover settings, and in what frequency band the test set is currently operating.

The following table summarizes the frequency bands and UARFCNs specified in 3GPP TS 25.101, and whether they are supported in the test set.
