Channel Setup UCI

The Uplink Control Channel (UCI) is a transport channel for PUSCH and PUCCH. It provides control information such as channel reports, HARQ-ACK, and Scheduling requests.

All PUCCH formats are supported. The table below provides a summary of the parameters for each PUCCH format.

Bold means new parameters.
Yellow means only visible for non-interlaced transmission.
Blue means only visible for interlaced transmission.

Couplings for interlaced transmission:

The intra-cell guard band setting is used to determine the number/location of RB-sets, and the RB-set index should be one of the RB-sets. if the selected RB-set is less than 100RB (for mu0) or 50RB (for mu1), there will be an error.
The BWP used for PUCCH should contains the selected RB-set, otherwise there will be an error.
It is clear that Intra-slot frequency hopping is not used for interlaced transmission, but not clear about Inter-slot frequency hopping, I assume it is also not used for interlaced transmission.
For interlace1, -1 means 'not configured'.

The conflict check between multiple UCIs is removed.

This topic describes the following UCI properties:

Channel Editor

Many of the channel types described in this topic provide a convenient channel editor, in table format, for convenient viewing and configuring of multiple channels. The editing functions for adding, removing, and copying rows appear directly above the editor. As you make edits, the Channel Allocation graph updates and, if a channel conflict occurs, an error message appears, describing the conflict.

	Add Row	Adds a new channel row to the bottom of the table with default settings. The name of the new channel increments numerically.
	Remove Row	Removes the currently selected channel row.
	Copy Row	Copies the currently selected channel row to the bottom of the table and appends "_Copy" to its name.
	Add from Menu	Opens a drop-down menu of unique channel editing choices you can apply to the table. Not available for all channels.

PUCCH Format

Select the PUCCH format for the transmission.

The physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) is used to transport UCI, that is, HARQ feedback, CSI (Channel State Information) and SR (Scheduling Request(s)). PUCCH can be used in both the time domain and the frequency domain. There are five formats available.

PUCCH format 0 and 2 occupies 1 or 2 OFDM symbols. It is known as short PUCCH.
PUCCH format 1, 3 and 4 occupies 4 to 14 OFDM symbols. It is known as long PUCCH.
PUCCH format 0 and 1 carry UCI payloads having 1 or 2 bits.
Other PUCCH formats carry UCI payloads having more than 2 bits.

Refer to 3GPP TS 38.213, table 9.2.1-1.

Allocated Slots

Sets the allocated slot index for the channel. Allocated Slots are entered as an array of slot indexes allocated for the PUCCH. There are three ways to configure:

To configure by individual index, use ',' as the delimiter, e.g. 0,1,2,3.
To configure by a range of index, use ':' to indicate the start index and the last index, e.g. 3:10 means 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.
To configure by a certain step, use two ':' to indicate the start index, the step and the last index, e.g. 0:4:12 means 0, 4, 8, 12.

These three configuration methods can be used in combination, by using ',' as the delimiter, e.g. 0,1,4:7,8:2:19 means index 0,1,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14,16,18.

If the slot allocation is different for different frame, use '{ }' and '|' to specify the frame index, for example, {0|0,1,2},{1|3,4,5} means slot 0,1,2 for frame 0, and slot 3,4,5 for frame 1. Ensure the Number of Radio Frames under Waveform Setup node is large enough.

PUCCH Parameters

Hopping ID

Sets the hopping ID when frequency hopping is used. Frequency hopping is a special transmission technique to send data with changing carrier frequency in a certain pattern.

The Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) is shared by all devices (user equipment, UE) in a radio cell to transmit their data to the network. The scheduling for all UEs is under control of the base station (enhanced Node B, eNB). The eNB uses the uplink scheduling grant (DCI format 0) to inform the UE about resource block (RB) assignment, modulation and coding scheme to be used.

Additional DMRS

Controls DMRS for PUCCH. Demodulation Reference Signal (DM-RS) provides synchronization and uplink channel information . There is a separate DM-RS for PUSCH and PUCCH. It is sent in either 1 or 2 symbols in every time slot for PUSCH. For PBCH, PDCCH and PDSCH. DMRS for PBCH is spread over the same bandwidth as the PBCH (on the same symbols). PUSCH DMRS is the uplink user's shared channel DMRS and is transmitted in each resource block allocated to the user. PUSCH is transmitted during symbol 3 (normal CP) or symbol 2 (extended CP). The modulation type used is Zadoff-Chu, causing the constellation for DMRS to look like irregularly spaced points in a circle.

DMRS-UplinkTransformPrecodingPUCCH-r16

Enables DMRS-UplinkTransformPrecodingPUCCH-r16.

According to 38211-g10 6.4.1.1.1.2, when Transform precoding is enabled and Pi/2 BPSK support is used, if the PUSCH transmission is not a msg3 transmission and the transmission is not scheduled using DCI format 0_0 in a common search space, then, if DMRS-UplinkTransformPrecoding-r16 is configured, nID^RS used for DMRS sequence generation equals NID⁰ if Nscid is 0, and it equals NID¹ if Nscid is 1.

PUCCH Contents

SR Configuration

Scheduling Request (SR) is a special Physical Layer message for UE to ask Network to send UL Grant (DCI Format 0_0 /0_1) so that UE can transmit PUCCH. Whenever there is data to be transmitted, UE asks gNB (that is, the network) about an uplink grant using a "scheduling request" message over PUCCH channel.

An SR configuration consists of a set of PUCCH resources for SR across different BWPs and cells. For a logical channel, one PUCCH resource for SR is configured per BWP. Each SR configuration corresponds to one or more logical channels. Each logical channel may be mapped to zero or one SR configuration, which is configured by the Radio Resource Control (RRC).

SR is defined in 9.2 in 38.213. The definition in the 9.2.4 UE procedure for reporting SR is not supported.

When SR is positive, tables 9.2.5-1 and 9.2.5-2 are used.

When SR is negative, or UE procedure for reporting HARQ-ARK without SR, tables 9.2.1-3 and 9.2.1-4 are used.

UCI Content

Choices: SR+HARQ-ACK | HARQ-ACK Only | SR Only

Default: SR+HARQ-ACK

Select UCI content on PUCCH for Format 0/1. SR+HARQ-ACK is only applicable for Format 0.

When UCI Content = SR Only:

SR Configuration can only be Positive.
Payload Data and Payload Size will not be shown.
UCI Bits per slot is NA for format 0, and is 0 for format 1.

When UCI Content = HARQ-ACK Only:

SR Configuration will not be shown.
Payload Data, Payload Size and UCI Bits per slot are same as before.

When UCI Content = SR + HARQ-ACK:

Same as before, and it is only applicable for format 0.

Payload Size

Default:

1 for PUCCH format 0/1

3 for PUCCH format 2/3/4.

Sets the UCI payload size.

For PUCCH format 2/3/4, the payload size is before channel coding, the range is determined by the PUCCH resource allocation, and ensures the coding is working correctly.

For PUCCH format 0/1, the range is 1 to 2.
