This page describes PDSCH or Physical Downlink Shared Channel with respect to WCDMA/UMTS system.

The Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH), used to carry the Downlink Shared Channel (DSCH) transport channel, is shared by users based on code multiplexing. As the DSCH is always associated with one or several DCHs, the PDSCH is always associated with one or several downlink DPCHs.
