lteSLChannelEstimatePSCCH
PSCCH sidelink channel estimation
Syntax
Description
[
returns
an estimate for the channel by averaging the least squares estimates
of the reference symbols across time and copying these estimates across
the allocated resource elements within the time frequency grid. The
channel estimation configuration uses the method described in TS 36.101 [1], Annex F.hest

Examples
Estimate Channel Using PSCCH DM-RS and Default CE Settings
Estimate the channel characteristics given the PSCCH-received resource grid containing PSCCH DM-RS symbols. Use the default channel estimation configuration method, as defined in TS 36.101, Annex F.
Create a structure defining UE-specific settings.
ue = struct('NSLRB',25,'CyclicPrefixSL','Normal','PRBSet',5);
Create the subframe grid, control channel, and indices for a subframe. Populate the subframe with PSCCH symbols.
subframe = lteSLResourceGrid(ue); [pscchIndices,pscchInfo] = ltePSCCHIndices(ue); pscchSymbols = ltePSCCH(randi([0 1],pscchInfo.G,1)); subframe(pscchIndices) = pscchSymbols;
Create the control DM-RS and indices. Add the PSCCH DM-RS symbols to the subframe.
subframe(ltePSCCHDRSIndices(ue)) = ltePSCCHDRS;
Perform sidelink SC-FDMA modulation.
txWaveform = lteSLSCFDMAModulate(ue,subframe);
No channel impairment is applied, so set the received waveform equal to the transmit waveform. Perform sidelink SC-FDMA demodulation and channel estimation.
rxWaveform = txWaveform; rxGrid = lteSLSCFDMADemodulate(ue,rxWaveform); hest = lteSLChannelEstimatePSCCH(ue,rxGrid);
Estimate Channel Using PSCCH DM-RS

User equipment settings, specified as a structure containing these fields.
SidelinkMode
— Sidelink mode
'D2D'
(default) | 'V2X'
| optional
Sidelink mode, specified as 'D2D'
or
'V2X'
.
Data Types: char
| string
NSLRB
— Number of sidelink resource blocks
integer scalar from 6 to 110
Number of sidelink resource blocks, specified as an integer scalar from 6 to 110.
Example: 6
, which corresponds to a channel
bandwidth of 1.4 MHz.
Data Types: double
CyclicPrefixSL

PRBSet
— Zero-based physical resource block index
integer | integer column vector | two-column integer matrix
Zero-based physical resource block (PRB) index, specified as an integer, an integer column vector, or a two-column integer matrix.
For D2D sidelink, the PSCCH is intended to be transmitted in a single PRB in a subframe and
therefore, specifying PRBSet
as a scalar PRB index is recommended.
For V2X sidelink, the PSCCH is intended to be transmitted in a pair of consecutive PRB
in a subframe, therefore PRBSet
must be a column vector containing
two consecutive indices. However, for a more general nonstandard multi-PRB allocation,
PRBSet
can be a set of indices specified as an integer column
vector or as a two-column integer matrix corresponding to slot-wise resource allocations
for PSCCH.
Data Types: double
CyclicShift
— Cyclic shift for DM-RS
0
(default) | 3
| 6
| 9

V2X sidelink.

NSC is the number of subcarriers.
NSym = NSF × NSymPerSF =
1
× NSymPerSFNSF is the total number of subframes. For this function
rxgrid
must contain one subframe.NSymPerSF is the number of SC-FDMA symbols per subframe.

For extended cyclic prefix, a subframe contains 12 SC-FDMA symbols.
NR is the number of receive antennas.

Data Types: char
| string
PilotAverage
— Type of pilot averaging
'UserDefined'
(default) | 'TestEVM'
| optional
Type of pilot averaging, specified as 'UserDefined'
or
'TestEVM'
.
The 'UserDefined'
pilot averaging uses a rectangular kernel of size
cec
.FreqWindow
-by-cec
.TimeWindow
and performs a 2-D filtering operation on the pilots. Pilots near the edge of the
resource grid are averaged less because they have no neighbors outside of the grid.
For cec
.FreqWindow
=
12×X (that is, any multiple of 12) and
cec
.TimeWindow
= 1, the estimator enters a
special case where an averaging window of (12×X)-in-frequency is
used to average the pilot estimates. The averaging is always applied across
(12×X) subcarriers, even at the upper and lower band edges.
Therefore, the first (6×X) symbols at the upper and lower band
edge have the same channel estimate. This operation ensures that averaging is always
done on 12 (or a multiple of 12) symbols. The 'TestEVM'
pilot
averaging ignores other structure fields in cec
, and for the
transmitter EVM testing, it follows the method described in TS 36.101, Annex F.

Output Arguments
hest

3-D array
Channel estimate between each transmit and receive antenna, returned as an NSC-by-NSym-by-NR array of complex symbols. NSC is the total number of subcarriers, NSym is the number of SC-FDMA symbols, and NR is the number of receive antennas.

contains channel estimates in the locations of transmitted DM-RS symbols for each received antenna and all other elements ofhest
are0
The averaging of pilot symbol estimates, described by
cec
.TimeWindow
andcec
.FreqWindow

noiseest
— Noise estimate
numeric scalar
Noise estimate, returned as a numeric scalar. When cec
.PilotAverage
is 'UserDefined'
,
this output is the power spectral density of the noise present on
the estimated channel response coefficients. Otherwise, noiseest
returns 0
.
