Couplings

PRACH test preambles configuration parameters and their default values are listed below:

Bandwidth: FR1BW100M,

Numerology: MU1,

PRACHFormat: F0,

SCS: SCS1K25 ,

IncreaseTimeOffset: OFF.

Subframes: <string>

One combined string is needed to be inputted in SCPI command. The format of it is  "name: value , name: value …" .

Default value will be used if parameter is not provided.

The order of parameters does not matter. Parameter's name and value are case sensitive.

If parameter's type is enum and the inputted enum value is illegal ,  error " -224, Illegal parameter value; xxx has incorrect value." will be generated.

Increase Time Offset

Enable or disable time offset increase for each burst, see section 8.4 in 38.141.

Time Offset Base

Display the Time Offset Base value, see section 8.4 in 38.141. This value will be applied to the timing offset of carrier.

Subframes

Defines which subframes will be used for one PRACH burst. It’s a string to define a int array. The range of each number is from 0 to 9. The numbers are separated by “,” and “x:y” means from x to y with both x and y included.

The format “x:y:z” is not supported, which means the step can only be one.
