nrPUCCH3Config

PUCCH format 3 configuration parameters

Since R2021a

Description

The nrPUCCH3Config object sets physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) configuration parameters for format 3, as defined in TS 38.211 Sections 6.3.2.1, 6.3.2.2, 6.3.2.6, and 6.4.1.3.3 [1]. The object also configures the bandwidth part (BWP) containing the PUCCH and the number of resource blocks (RBs) that the PUCCH occupies within the BWP.

The default nrPUCCH3Config object allocates a PUCCH format 3 in the first RB in the BWP and in all OFDM symbols in a slot.

Creation

Syntax

pucch = nrPUCCH3Config

pucch = nrPUCCH3Config(Name,Value)

Description

pucch = nrPUCCH3Config creates a default PUCCH configuration object for format 3.

pucch = nrPUCCH3Config(Name,Value) specifies properties using one or more name-value pairs. Enclose each property in quotes. For example, 'NSizeBWP',200 specifies 200 physical resource blocks (PRB) in the BWP.

Properties

NSizeBWP — Number of PRBs in BWP

[] (default) | integer from 1 to 275

Number of PRBs in the BWP, specified as [] or an integer from 1 to 275. To set this property to the NSizeGrid property of the nrCarrierConfig object, use [].

Data Types: double

NStartBWP — Starting PRB index of BWP relative to CRB 0

[] (default) | integer from 0 to 2473

Starting PRB index of the BWP relative to the common resource block 0 (CRB 0), specified as [] or an integer from 0 to 2473. To set this property to the NStartGrid property of the nrCarrierConfig object, use [].

Data Types: double

Modulation — Modulation scheme

'QPSK' (default) | 'pi/2-BPSK'

Modulation scheme, specified as 'QPSK' or 'pi/2-BPSK'.

Modulation Scheme	Number of Bits Per Symbol
'pi/2-BPSK'	1
'QPSK'	2

Data Types: char | string

SymbolAllocation — OFDM symbol allocation of PUCCH

[0 14] (default) | [] | two-element vector of nonnegative integers

OFDM symbol allocation of the PUCCH within a slot, specified as [] or a two-element vector of nonnegative integers. The first element of this property represents the start of symbol allocation. The second element represents the number of consecutively allocated OFDM symbols and must be in the range [4, 14]. To indicate that no OFDM symbols are allocated for the PUCCH, use [] or specify the second element of the vector as 0.

Data Types: double

PRBSet — PRB allocation of PUCCH

0 (default) | vector of integers from 0 to 274

PRB (0-based) allocation of the PUCCH within the BWP, specified as a vector of integers from 0 to 274. To indicate that no resource blocks are allocated for the PUCCH, use [].

Data Types: double

FrequencyHopping — Frequency hopping configuration for PUCCH

'neither' (default) | 'intraSlot' | 'interSlot'

Frequency hopping configuration for the PUCCH, specified as one of these values.

• 'neither' — Indicates no frequency hopping

• 'intraSlot' — Enables intraslot frequency hopping

• 'interSlot' — Enables interslot frequency hopping

When you enable interslot frequency hopping, the slot number determines the starting resource block for the allocated OFDM symbols. For even-numbered slots, the resource block starts from the minimum resource block allocated in the PRBSet property. For odd-numbered slots, the resource block starts from the resource block provided in the SecondHopStartPRB property.

Data Types: char | string

SecondHopStartPRB — Starting PRB index of second hop relative to BWP

1 (default) | integer from 0 to 274

Starting PRB index of the second hop relative to the BWP, specified as an integer from 0 to 274.

Data Types: double

GroupHopping — Group hopping configuration for PUCCH

'neither' (default) | 'enable' | 'disable'

Group hopping configuration for the PUCCH, specified as one of these values.

• 'neither' — Disables group hopping and sequence hopping

• 'enable' — Enables group hopping and disables sequence hopping

• 'disable' — Disables group hopping and enables sequence hopping

This property is the higher-layer parameter pucch-GroupHopping.

Data Types: char | string

HoppingID — Hopping identity of PUCCH

[] (default) | integer from 0 to 1023

Hopping identity of the PUCCH, specified as [] or an integer from 0 to 1023.

• If the higher-layer parameter hoppingId is configured, this property must be in the range from 0 to 1023.

• If the higher-layer parameter hoppingId is not configured, this property must be equal to the physical layer cell identity and be in the range from 0 to 1007.

When you specify this property as [], the object sets the PUCCH hopping identity to the physical layer cell identity specified by the NCellID property of the nrCarrierConfig object.

Data Types: double

NID — PUCCH scrambling identity

[] (default) | integer from 0 to 1023

PUCCH scrambling identity, specified as [] or an integer from 0 to 1023.

• If the higher-layer parameter dataScramblingIdentityPUSCH is configured, this property must be in the range from 0 to 1023.

• If the higher-layer parameter dataScramblingIdentityPUSCH is not configured, this property must be equal to the physical layer cell identity and be in the range from 0 to 1007.

When you specify this property as [], the object sets the PUCCH scrambling identity to the physical layer cell identity specified by the NCellID property of the nrCarrierConfig object.

Data Types: double

RNTI — Radio network temporary identifier

1 (default) | integer from 0 to 65,535

Radio network temporary identifier of the user equipment (UE), specified as an integer from 0 to 65,535.

Data Types: double

AdditionalDMRS — Option to enable additional DM-RS

false or 0 (default) | true or 1

Option to enable additional demodulation reference signal (DM-RS), provided by the higher-layer parameter additionalDMRS, specified as one of these numeric or logical values.

• 0 (false) — Disable additional DM-RS. When the number of the PUCCH OFDM symbols is greater than 9, two DM-RS symbols are present.

• 1 (true) — Enable additional DM-RS. When the number of the PUCCH OFDM symbols is greater than 9, four DM-RS symbols are present.

Data Types: double | logical

Examples

Create PUCCH Format 3 Configuration Object

Create a default PUCCH configuration object for format 3.

pucch = nrPUCCH3Config;

Specify the number of PRBs in the BWP as 150, the modulation scheme as pi/2-BPSK, the PRB allocation of the PUCCH to range from 90 to 97, and the data scrambling identity as 650. Enable group hopping and the additional DM-RS configuration flag. Display the object properties.

pucch.NSizeBWP = 150;
pucch.Modulation = 'pi/2-BPSK';
pucch.PRBSet = 90:97;
pucch.GroupHopping = 'enable';
pucch.NID = 650;
pucch.AdditionalDMRS = 1;
