25.2143GPPPhysical layer procedures (FDD)Release 17TS

The Node B may activate or deactivate D-CPICH on 3rd and 4th antennas through HS-SCCH orders as described in [2]. The UE may assume that D-CPICHs are present 12 slots after the end of the HS-SCCH subframe containing the order for activation of D-CPICHs. The UE is not required to perform any operations based on the D-CPICHs 12 slots after the end of the HS-SCCH subframe containing the order for deactivation. The HS-SCCH order for activation or deactivation of D-CPICHs is UE-specific.

The UE can assume the initial activation status of D-CPICH as set by the network through RRC signalling.
