3.1 Definitions

For the purposes of the present document, the following terms and definitions apply.

cell portion: A geographical part of a cell for which a Node B measurement can be reported to the RNC. A cell portion is semi-static, and identical for both the UL and the DL. Within a cell, a cell portion is uniquely identified by a cell portion ID.

Note 1: a cell portion is not necessarily analogous to actual beams used for transmission and/or reception of e.g. a DPCH at the Node B.

Note 2: RNC may associate physical channels with cell portions.

DL_DCH_FET_Config: Higher layers signal this configuration parameter to indicate enhanced DCH physical layer configuration. The possible values are 0 and 1. The value 0 indicates Mode 0 configuration where DL transport channels concatenation and UL ACK/NACK signalling are not configured. The value 1 indicates Mode 1 where DL transport channel concatenation and UL ACK/NACK signalling for DL FET are configured.
