    Scrambling polynomial, specified as one of these options.

    • 16-bit vector of binary values from the most significant bit (MSB), z16, to least significant bit (LSB), z1. Each element of this vector corresponds to the coefficient of z and its exponent, specified from MSB to LSB. For details on the binary representation, see ETSI EN 301 545-2 Section 7.3.7.1.5.

    • Numeric vector containing the exponents of z for nonzero terms of the polynomial in descending order.

    The scrambling polynomial determines the shift register feedback connection to generate the spreading sequence.

    The coefficient of z0 is always 1.

    The default value of this scrambling polynomial indicates the default scrambling sequence provided in the standard. When you set the TransmissionFormat property to "SS-TC-LM" and the IsCustomWaveform property to false, the default scrambling sequence is used to descramble the received reference waveform.

    Dependencies

    To enable this property, set the TransmissionFormat property to "SS-TC-LM" and the IsCustomWaveform property to true.

    Data Types: double | logical
