In the following, a separation between the data modulation and the spreading modulation has been made. The data modulation for 3.84Mcps TDD (including 3.84 Mcps MBSFN IMB) and 7.68Mcps TDD is defined in clause 5 ‘Data modulation for the 3.84 Mcps and 7.68Mcps options’, the data modulation for 1.28Mcps TDD is defined in clause 5A ‘Data modulation for the 1.28 Mcps option’ and the spreading modulation in clause 6 ‘Spreading modulation’.

Table 1 shows the basic modulation parameters for the 7.68Mcps, 3.84Mcps (including 3.84 Mcps MBSFN IMB) and 1.28Mcps TDD options.
