Frame Parts (Custom OFDM)

Frame Parts is an editor that lets you assemble frame parts and allocations to demodulate and analyze custom signals.

The main Frame Parts panel consists of a default frame part (FramePart0) with a single allocation (Alloc0). Clicking the allocation will display a Configuration property panel to specify the allocation's name, type, power boost and payload, and a Location property panel to specify the active symbols and subcarriers within the frame.

Use the following basic frame building tools to create the structure of the desired signal:

Add Frame Part Adds a frame part to the list of frame parts and allocations.

Remove Frame Part Removes the selected frame part from the list of frame parts.

Add Allocation Adds an allocation to the selected frame part.

Remove Allocation Removes the selected allocation from the list of frame parts and allocations.

Name sets the name of the frame part.

Default: 1

Subcarrier Count Per Chan Est Unit indicates how many subcarriers are used to estimate the channel response for each resource element. See Subcarrier Count Per Chan Est Unit for more information.
