Examples
Configure PRACH Preamble Format
Create a PRACH configuration object with default properties. The default configuration object defines a PRACH configuration with long preamble format 0, based on TS 38.211 Table 6.3.3.2-2.
prach = nrPRACHConfig;
To consider a different PRACH configuration table as a basis, for example Table 6.3.3.2-3 for FR1 and unpaired spectrum, update the duplex mode property.
prach.DuplexMode = 'TDD';
To change the PRACH preamble format, you must update the ConfigurationIndex
property of the object based on Table 6.3.3.2-3. To lookup a suitable value, access this table through the ConfigurationsFR1Unpaired
field of the Tables
property.
