22. Discussible topics Initial cell search Downlink CRS in one antenna transmission Some OFDM symbols may not have any data, so the observation interval would be very large.

23. Discussible topics DCI (Downlink Control Information) blind detection Downlink control information, DCI, provides the terminal with the necessary information for proper reception and decoding of the downlink data transmission. Puncturing or repetition Control-Channel Elements (CCEs), is a convenient name for a set of 36 useful resource elements. The number of CCEs, 1, 2, 4, or 8, required for a certain PDCCH depends on the DCI payload channel-coding rate.

24. Discussible topics DCI blind detection As the number of CCEs for each of the PDCCHs may vary and is not signaled, the terminal has to blindly determine the number of CCEs used for the PDCCH it is addressed upon. In release 8/9, the number of blind decoding attempts is 44 per subframe, while for release 10 with uplink spatial multiplexing the number is 60.
