CDMA Operating Frequency Programming Information – North American PCS Bands Introduction Programming of each of the BTS BBX synthesizers is performed by the BTS GLIs via the CHI bus. This programming data determines the transmit and receive transceiver operating frequencies (channels) for each BBX2. 1900 MHz PCS Channels Figure D-1 shows the valid channels for the North American PCS 1900 MHz frequency spectrum.
CDMA Operating Frequency Programming Information – North American Bands – continued Calculating 1900 MHz Center Frequencies Table D-1 shows selected 1900 MHz CDMA candidate operating channels, listed in both decimal and hexadecimal, and the corresponding transmit, and receive frequencies. Center frequencies (in MHz) for channels not shown in the table may be calculated as follows: TX = 1930 + 0.05 * Channel# Example: Channel 262 TX = 1930 + 0.05*262 = 1943.

Appendix E: PN Offset Programming Information PN Offset Background All channel elements transmitted from a BTS in a particular 1.25 MHz CDMA channel are orthonogonally spread by 1 of 64 possible Walsh code functions; additionally, they are also spread by a quadrature pair of PN sequences unique to each sector. Overall, the mobile uses this to differentiate multiple signals transmitted from the same BTS (and surrounding BTS) sectors, and to synchronize to the next strongest sector.
