Add Pattern

Adds a new RateMatchPattern row to the table with default values. Up to 8 rate match patterns can be used.

GUI Location

SCPI Command

[:SOURce]:RADio:NR5G:WAVeform[:ARB]:CCARrier<carrier>:ULINk:SCH<channel>:RMPattern:ADD

SCPI Example

 

Couplings

If count of Rate Match Pattern is 8 and try to add a new Rate Match Pattern, error -224 "Illegal parameter value; Failed to add Rate Match Pattern because limit of 8 has been reached." will be shown.

Initial S/W Revision

A.09.00

Remove/Delete Pattern

Removes the currently selected RateMatchPattern row from the table. The remaining patterns will be re-indexed.

Clicking this button when there is only one RateMatchPattern row in the table displays a message stating, "The last RateMatchPattern can't be removed, you can set it to off to disable it."

ID

Display the ID of RateMatchPattern, it is automatically generated based on the index of RateMatchPattern array.

Enabled

Choice: Off | On

Default: Off

Click the checkbox to enable (checkmarked) or disable the channel or signal in a radio frame. When enabled and the subcarrier spacing is same as the subcarrier spacing of ULSCH, the rate match pattern will be applied to ULSCH when channel coding.

Subcarrier Spacing

Choices:

BWP Level: Same as Subcarrier Spacing of the BWP of ULSCH

Cell Level: 15 kHz | 30kHz | 60kHz for FR1, 60 kHz | 120kHz for FR2

Displays (read-only) the Subcarrier Spacing for RateMatchPattern. Subcarrier Spacing is defined by the BWP.

When Level is set to BWP, the subcarrier spacing is always set to the SCS of the associated BWP (default = 30 kHz). When Level is set to Cell Level, the subcarrier spacing is selectable as 15 kHz, 30 kHz or 60 kHz (FR1), and 60 kHz or 120 kHz (FR2). See TS 38.331 V16.1.0 for more information.

RB Index

Range:

For BWP Level, RB Index is referred to PRB index inside the BWP, the range is 0 ~ (BWP.RBNumber - 1)

For Cell Level, the range of RB Index is 0 ~ N_grid_start[mu] + N_grid_size[mu] - 1, i.e. the length of RB Bitmap is N_grid_start[mu] + N_grid_size[mu]

If the selected numerology is not enabled, the range of RB Index is 0 ~ 274

Defines the resource blocks (RB) to which the rate match is applied. If an RB's index is included in the RB Index field, the rate match is applied to that resource block. See TS 38.331 V16.1.0 for more information. RBs are entered as an array of resource block indexes. There are 3 ways to configure:

These 3 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.
