In plain words

TS 36.211 states "The present document describes the physical channels for evolved UTRA." Its frame structure type 1 applies to both full duplex and half duplex FDD only. Each radio frame lasts 10 ms and contains 10 subframes, each 1 ms, numbered from 0 to 9.

How this page was made

The facts box and the tables come straight from the 3GPP specification archive and CR database as indexed by 3GPP Scout. An AI model (GPT-6 Luna) wrote the paragraph and named the source of each sentence. Code checked every quote word for word against the stored source text and every number against the cited source. A second AI model from another company (Claude Opus 5.5) reviewed the paragraph against the same sources. The 3GPP documents themselves govern.
