Note 1: For in-band, the first 3 symbols are used for LTE PDCCH and the number of LTE CRS ports is 4. Note 2: 6 when mod 2 = 0, otherwise 8. is specified in TS36.211 [4]. Note 3: N/A when mod 2 = 0, otherwise 56. Note 4: N/A when mod 2 = 0, otherwise 1. Note 5: N/A when mod 2 = 0, otherwise 200. Note 6: For repetition number N, the maximum throughput averaged over 1 frame equals to (Max. Throughput averaged over 1 frame for 1 repetition) / N. |
