5G NR PRACH for NTN Use Case

16 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi all,
I'd like to use NTN channel model for PRACH preamble detection using the example: https://de.mathworks.com/help/5g/ug/5g-nr-prach-detection-test.html. However, there are no NTN channels available. I tried to modify nrTDLChannel.m but it did not work. Please could you help me implement the NTN channel module or suggest ways to do it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Since MATLAB R2024a, you can select NTN delay profiles within the nrTDLChannel system object by modifying the Delay Profile property: https://www.mathworks.com/help/5g/ref/nrtdlchannel-system-object.html#mw_fa3523ff-7296-4a0e-8334-03612f0863b9 .
I believe that this should satify your requirements. If this is not the case, I would suggest you contact MathWorks technical support specifying what is that you need and why the current offering is not enough for you.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Alessandro

Hi,
There is no official reference for the calculation of baseOffset. The reasoning behind that calculation is as follows:
  1. Section 8.4.1.4.2 of TS 38.141-1 mentions that the base offset must be Ncs/2
  2. The fraction of the Zadoff-Chu sequence occupied by Ncs/2 is: fZC = (Ncs/2)/LRA
  3. For LRA=839, the Zadoff-Chu sequence spans a time in microseconds that can be computed as: tZC = 1e3/SubcarrierSpacing (where SubcarrierSpacing is defined in kHz)
  4. Therefore, the length of Ncs/2 in microseconds is: baseOffset = fZC * tZC = (Ncs/2)/LRA * 1e3/SubcarrierSpacing
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Alessandro
